section 408(p) determination have been 

made. 

Pursuant to 40 CFR 155.57, a 

registration review decision is the 

Agency’s determination whether a 

pesticide meets, or does not meet, the 

standard for registration in FIFRA. EPA 

has considered the pesticides listed in 

light of the FIFRA standard for 

registration. The interim decision 

documents in the docket describe the 

Agency’s rationale for issuing 

registration review interim decisions for 

these pesticides. 

In addition to the interim registration 

review decision document, the 

registration review docket for these 

pesticides also includes other relevant 

documents related to the registration 

review of these cases. The proposed 

interim registration review decisions 

were posted to the docket and the 

public was invited to submit any 

comments or new information. EPA has 

addressed the substantive comments or 

information received during the 60-day 

comment period in the interim decision 

document for each pesticide listed in 

this document. 

Pursuant to 40 CFR 155.58(c), the 

registration review case docket for each 

pesticide discussed in this notice will 

remain open until all actions required in 

the interim decision have been 

completed.

Proposed Information Collection 

Request; Comment Request; Title I of 

the Marine Protection, Research, and 

Sanctuaries Act 

AGENCY: Environmental Protection 

Agency (EPA). 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: The Environmental Protection 

Agency is planning to submit an 

information collection request (ICR), 

‘‘Title I of the Marine Protection, 

Research, and Sanctuaries Act’’ (EPA 

ICR No. 0824.06, OMB Control No. 

2040–0008) to the Office of Management 

and Budget (OMB) for review and 

approval in accordance with the 

Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 

3501 et seq.). Before doing so, EPA is 

soliciting public comments on specific 

aspects of the proposed information 

collection as described below. This is a 

proposed renewal of the ICR (formerly

Pursuant to section 3506(c)(2)(A) of 

the PRA, EPA is soliciting comments 

and information to enable it to: (i) 

Evaluate whether the proposed 

collection of information is necessary 

for the proper performance of the 

functions of the Agency, including 

whether the information will have 

practical utility; (ii) evaluate the 

accuracy of the Agency’s estimate of the 

burden of the proposed collection of 

information, including the validity of 

the methodology and assumptions used; 

(iii) enhance the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected; and (iv) minimize the burden 

of the collection of information on those 

who are to respond, including through 

the use of appropriate automated 

electronic, mechanical, or other 

technological collection techniques or 

other forms of information technology, 

e.g., permitting electronic submission of 

responses. EPA will consider the 

comments received and amend the ICR 

as appropriate. The final ICR package 

will then be submitted to OMB for 

review and approval. At that time, EPA 

will issue another Federal Register 

notice to announce the submission of 

the ICR to OMB and the opportunity to 

submit additional comments to OMB. 

Abstract: Ocean dumping—the 

transportation of any material for the 

purpose of dumping in ocean waters— 

cannot occur unless a permit is issued 

under the Marine Protection, Research, 

and Sanctuaries Act (MPRSA). EPA is 

responsible for issuing ocean dumping 

permits for all materials except dredged 

material. The U.S. Army Corps of 

Engineers (USACE) is responsible for 

issuing ocean dumping permits for 

dredged material using EPA’s 

environmental criteria. Ocean dumping 

permits for dredged material are subject 

to EPA review and concurrence. EPA is 

also responsible for designating and 

managing ocean sites for the disposal of 

wastes and other materials, and 

establishing Site Management and 

Monitoring Plans for ocean disposal 

sites. EPA collects or sponsors the 

collection of information for the 

purposes of permit issuance, reporting 

of emergency dumping to safety of life 

at sea, compliance with permit 

requirements, including specifically 

general permits for burial at sea and for 

transportation and disposal of vessels. 

EPA collects this information to 

ensure that ocean dumping is 

appropriately regulated and will not 

harm human health and the marine 

environment, based on applying the 

Ocean Dumping Criteria. The Ocean 

Dumping Criteria consider, among other 

things: The environmental impact of the 

dumping; the need for the dumping; the 

effect of the dumping on esthetic, 

recreational, or economic values; landmstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES

based alternatives to ocean dumping; 

and the adverse effects of the dumping 

on other uses of the ocean. The Ocean 

Dumping Criteria are codified in 40 CFR 

parts 227–228. To meet U.S. reporting 

obligation under the London 

Convention, EPA also reports some of 

this information in the annual United 

States Ocean Dumping Report. 

EPA uses ocean dumping information 

to make decisions regarding whether to 

issue or deny a permit. This information 

is also used to develop the conditions in 

ocean dumping permits issued by EPA 

in order to ensure consistency with the 

Ocean Dumping Criteria. EPA uses 

monitoring and reporting data from 

permittees to assess compliance with 

ocean dumping permits, including 

associated monitoring activities. 

Form numbers: None. 

Respondents/affected entities: 

Respondents/affected entities may 

include any private person or entity, or 

State, local or foreign governments. 

Respondent’s obligation to respond: 

Required to obtain or retain a benefit, 

specifically permit authorization and/or 

compliance with permits required under 

MPRSA sections 102 and 104, 33 U.S.C. 

1402 & 1404, and implementing 

regulations at 40 CFR parts 220–229. 

Estimated number of respondents: 

2,767 respondents per year. 

Frequency of response: The frequency 

of response varies for application and 

reporting requirements for different 

permits. Other than the general permit 

for transportation and disposal of 

vessels, response is required once for 

each permit application, whether a 

single notification to EPA or a permit 

application. Depending on the type of 

MPRSA permit, a permit application 

would be required prior to expiration if 

the permittee seeks re-issuance: General 

permit (once every seven years); special 

permit (once every three years), and 

research permit (once every 18 months). 

Total estimated burden: The public 

reporting and recordkeeping burdens for 

this collection of information are 

estimated to be 3,207 hours per year. 

Burden is defined at 5 CFR 1320.3(b). 

Total estimated cost: Annual labor 

costs are estimated to be $153,300 and 

$195,857 for capital or operation & 

maintenance costs. 

Changes in estimates: EPA estimates 

an increase in the number of 

respondents from 21 to 2,767 with a 

corresponding decrease in total 

estimated burden from 27,004 to 3,207 

hours as compared to the most recently 

approved ICR, which expired January 

31, 1992. The estimated increase in the 

number of respondents is due to the 

significant increase in the number of 

entities using the burial at sea and 

vessel general permits, which were not 

widely used at the time of the earlier 

ICR. The estimated decrease in the total 

estimated burden is due to the 

implementation of the Ocean Dumping 

Ban Act of 1988, which led to the 

cessation of the dumping of sewage 

sludge and industrial wastes. The 

respondent burden for these special 

permits was high due the potentially 

significant impacts from dumping these 

wastes, and the data required from the 

respondents to ensure permit 

compliance.
