SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: EPA has 

submitted the following ICR to OMB for 

review and approval according to the 

procedures under the PRA (44 U.S.C. 

3501 et seq.), as prescribed in 5 CFR 

1320.12. On May 7, 2012 (77 FR 26750), 

EPA sought comments on this ICR 

pursuant to 5 CFR 1320.8(d). EPA 

received one comment, which is 

addressed in the ICR package submitted 

to OMB. As required by the PRA, EPA 

is hereby soliciting additional 

comments on this ICR, which should be 

submitted to EPA and OMB within 30 

days of this notice. 

Title: Notification of Chemical 

Exports—TSCA Section 12(b) 

ICR numbers: EPA ICR No. 0795.14, 

OMB Control No. 2070–0030. 

ICR Status: EPA is requesting the 

renewal of the currently approved ICR, 

which is currently approved through 

March 31, 2013. The ICR, which is 

abstracted below, describes the nature of 

the information collection and its 

estimated burden and cost. Under OMB 

regulations, the Agency may continue to 

conduct or sponsor the collection of 

information while this submission is 

pending at OMB. An Agency may not 

conduct or sponsor, and a person is not 

required to respond to, a collection of 

information, unless it displays a 

currently valid OMB control number. 

The OMB control numbers for EPA’s 

regulations in title 40 of the CFR, after 

appearing in the Federal Register when 

approved, are listed in 40 CFR part 9, 

are displayed either by publication in 

the Federal Register or by other 

appropriate means, such as on the 

related collection instrument or form, if 

applicable. The display of OMB control 

numbers in certain EPA regulations is 

consolidated in 40 CFR part 9. 

Abstract: Section 12(b)(2) of the Toxic 

Substances Control Act (TSCA) requires 

that any person who exports or intends 

to export to a foreign country a chemical 

substance or mixture that is regulated 

under TSCA sections 4, 5, 6 and/or 7 

submit to EPA notification of such 

export or intent to export. Upon receipt 

of notification, EPA will advise the 

government of the importing country of 

the U.S. regulatory action with respect 

to that substance. EPA uses the 

information obtained from the submitter 

via this collection to advise the 

government of the importing country. 

This information collection addresses 

the burden associated with industry 

reporting of export notifications. The 

respondent may claim all or part of a 

notice confidential. EPA will disclose 

information that is covered by a claim 

of confidentiality only to the extent 

permitted by, and in accordance with, 

the procedures in TSCA and 40 CFR 

Part 2. 

Burden Statement: The annual public 

reporting and recordkeeping burden for 

this collection of information is 

estimated to be 1.1 hours per response. 

Burden is defined in 5 CFR 1320.3(b). 

The ICR provides a detailed explanation 

of this estimate, which is only briefly 

summarized here: 

Respondents/affected entities: Entities 

potentially affected by this action are 

mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES

7778 Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 23 / Monday, February 4, 2013 / Notices 

companies that export chemical 

substances. 

Respondent’s obligation to respond: 

Mandatory. 

Estimated number of respondents: 

240 (total). 

Frequency of response: On occasion. 

Total estimated annual burden: 4,025 

hours per year. 

Total estimated annual cost: $245,246 

per year, includes $0 annualized capital 

or operation and maintenance costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: There is a 

decrease of 825 hours in the total 

estimated respondent burden compared 

with the ICR currently approved by 

OMB. This decrease represents the net 

effect of a decrease in the estimated 

number of notices sent to EPA and a 

decrease in the number of firms sending 

notices, which is based on EPA’s recent 

experience with TSCA section 12(b) 

notices. This change is an adjustment. 

The Supporting Statement provides 

additional detail concerning the change 

in burden estimate.

Abstract: The Pesticide 

Environmental Stewardship Program 

(PESP or ‘‘the program’’ hereinafter) is 

an EPA voluntary program implemented 

by Environmental Protection Agency’s 

(EPA) Office of Pesticide Programs 

(OPP). PESP’s goal is to promote 

environmental stewardship to protect 

human health and the environment in 

accordance with Section 2(b) of the 

Pollution Prevention Act of 1990, 42 

U.S.C. 13101(b) that ‘‘pollution should 

be prevented or reduced at the source 

whenever feasible,’’ and Section 3 of the 

Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and 

Rodenticide Act (FIFRA) which requires 

EPA to regulate pesticides to prevent 

‘‘unreasonable adverse effects.’’ The 

program encourages the use of 

integrated pest management (IPM) 

strategies to make the best stewardship 

choices from a series of pest 

management practices. It allows for 

economical pest management, and does 

so with the least possible hazard to 

people, property, and the environment. 

This new information collection 

request (ICR) enables EPA to implement 

IPM through partnerships with its 

members which are pesticide user 

entities, and organizations which focus 

on training, educating, or influencing 

pesticide users. To become a PESP 

member, a pesticide user entity or an 

organization submits an application and 

a five-year strategy. The program uses 

the information collected to establish 

partner membership, develop 

stewardship strategies, offer technical 

assistance, measure progress towards 

stewardship goals, and award 

incentives. The stewardship strategy 

outlines how environmental and human 

health risk reduction goals will be 

achieved through the implementation of 

IPM, or through educating others on 

IPM. PESP encourages its members to 

track progress towards IPM goals: 

Reduced use of unnecessary pesticides, 

realize cost reductions, and share 

knowledge about IPM methodologies. 

EPA has implemented procedures to 

protect any confidential, trade secret or 

proprietary information from disclosure 

that provide strict instructions regarding 

access to and contact with documents 

confidential business information (CBI). 

These procedures comply with EPA’s 

CBI regulations at 40 CFR part 2. 

Form Numbers: PESP Membership 

Application Form (EPA Form 9600–02); 

Strategy/Reporting Form for PESP 

Members that are Not Commercial/ 

Residential Pest Control Services (EPA 

Form No. 9600–01); PESP Strategy/ 

Progress Reporting Form for Residential/ 

Commercial Pest Control Service 

Providers (EPA Form No. 9600–03). 

Respondents/affected entities: 

Pesticide user companies and 

organizations, or entities that represent 

them, that are committed to reducing 

risks from pests and pesticides by 

practicing IPM; companies or 

organizations that promote the use of 

IPM through education and training. 

Below is a list of North American 

Industry Classification System (NAICS) 

codes and associated industries that 

may be affected by information 

collection requirements covered under 

this ICR. This list is intended to be 

illustrative; entities from other 

industries may elect to apply for 

recognition through PESP. However, 

EPA expects that most applications will 

come from the following industries:
