100 Federal Register / Vol. 90, No. 1 / Thursday, January 2, 2025 / Notices 

October 22, 1998). The non-notification 

process means that a product label may 

be updated with Spanish translations 

without notifying EPA (or EPA 

reviewing the label), if that is the only 

change being made to the label. Nonnotification label changes are not 

systematically tracked by EPA. 

However, given the new bilingual 

labeling requirements in PRIA 5, EPA 

has developed a plan for tracking the 

adoption of the bilingual labeling. The 

draft PR Notice provides guidance on 

how the Agency plans to track the 

adoption of bilingual labeling. Since 

Spanish is the primary language for 

most American farmworkers, this effort 

advances environmental justice by 

making health and safety information on 

pesticide labels more accessible, 

fostering a better understanding and 

compliance with label instructions. 

IV. Do PR Notices contain binding 

requirements? 

The draft PR Notice discussed in this 

document is intended to provide 

guidance to EPA personnel and decision 

makers and to pesticide registrants. 

While the requirements in the statutes 

and Agency regulations are binding on 

EPA and the applicants, the PR Notice 

is not binding on either EPA or 

pesticide registrants, and EPA may 

depart from the guidance where 

circumstances warrant and without 

prior notice. Likewise, pesticide 

registrants may assert that the guidance 

is not appropriate generally or not 

applicable to a specific pesticide or 

situation. 

V. Are these forms approved under the 

Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA)? 

According to the PRA, 44 U.S.C. 3501 

et seq., an agency may not conduct or 

sponsor, and a person is not required to 

respond to a collection of information 

that requires approval under the PRA, 

unless it has been approved by the 

Office of Management and Budget 

(OMB) and displays a currently valid 

OMB control number. The information 

collection activities described in this 

draft PR Notice are being addressed in 

the new Information Collection 

Requests (ICR) entitled ‘‘Pesticide 

Product, Spanish Labeling Tracking,’’ 

identified as EPA ICR No. 7795.01, that 

will be made available for public review 

and comment in a forthcoming edition 

of the Federal Register. EPA intends to 

consider public comments on that ICR, 

along with comments on the draft PR 

Notice, before submitting a revised ICR 

to OMB for review and approval under 

the PRA, and issuing a final PR Notice.

Abstract: This ICR covers the 

paperwork burden hours and costs 

associated with the information 

collection activities under the pesticide 

registration fee program. Pesticide 

registrants are required by statute to pay 

an annual registration maintenance fee 

for all products registered under 

sections 3 and 24(c) of the Federal 

Insecticide, Fungicide and Rodenticide 

Act (FIFRA). In addition, the Pesticide 

Registration Improvement Act (PRIA) 

amended FIFRA in 2004 to create a 

registration service fee system for 

applications for specific pesticide 

registration, amended registration, and 

associated tolerance actions as per 

FIFRA section 33. This ICR specifically 

covers the activities related to the 

collection of the annual registration 

maintenance fees, the registration 

service fees, and the burden associated 

with the submission of requests for fees 

to be waived. 

Form number(s): 8570–30. 

Respondents/affected entities: Entities 

potentially affected are those that are 

pesticide importers which includes 

entities identified in the North

Federal Register / Vol. 90, No. 1 / Thursday, January 2, 2025 / Notices 101 

American Industrial Classification 

System (NAICS) codes identified in 

question 12 of the ICR. 

Respondent’s obligation to respond: 

Mandatory, per FIFRA sections 4(i)(5) 

and 33. 

Estimated number of potential 

respondents: 2,252. 

Frequency of response: Annually and 

on occasion. 

Total estimated burden: 9,058 hours 

(per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 

1320.3(b). 

Total estimated costs: $822,010 (per 

year), includes $0 annualized capital 

investment or maintenance and 

operational costs. 

Changes in the estimates: There is an 

increase in the number of respondents 

by 369 and a corresponding increase of 

518 hours in the total estimated 

respondent burden compared with that 

identified in the ICR currently approved 

by OMB. There is also an increase in 

costs for the regulated community by 

$138,709. The increase in costs ae based 

on updated BLS wage rates. These 

changes are adjustments.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This is a 

request for approval of a revised 

collection. 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. 

This notice allows 60 days for public 

comments. Supporting documents, 

which explain in detail the information 

that the EPA will be collecting, are 

available in the public docket for this 

ICR. The docket can be viewed online 

at www.regulations.gov or in person at

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. The ICR package will be 

submitted to OMB for review and 

approval. 

Abstract: This supporting statement is 

for a revision to an existing Information 

Collection Request (ICR) for four mobile 

source related grant programs 

administered by the Transportation and 

Climate Division (TCD), within 

Environmental Protection Agency’s 

(EPA) Office of Transportation and Air 

Quality (OTAQ). These four programs 

include: Diesel Emission Reduction Act 

(DERA) Grant Program, Clean School 

Bus (CSB) Grant Program, Clean HeavyDuty Vehicles (CHDV) Grant Program, 

and Clean Ports Grant Program. 

The EPA currently uses ICR No. 

2060–0754 to collect information for 

most major elements of grants 

administration for these programs, but 

to reflect the final program design and 

to further ease the burden for 

applicants, awardees, and Agency staff, 

the Agency needs to update this ICR to 

be able to use improved versions of 

previously approved instruments and 

collect information via 3 new reporting 

instruments to reflect final program 

design. This ICR revision aims to 

enhance project reporting instruments 

to ensure that the project reporting 

templates align with the final program 

design and requirements and 

incorporate user feedback received 

during the application period for the 

CHDV and Clean Ports Grant Programs. 

TCD uses approved procedures and 

forms to collect necessary information 

to operate its grant programs and has 

been providing grants under DERA 

since 2008. EPA launched the 2024 

Clean Port Program in late winter 2024, 

the 2024 Clean Heavy-Duty Vehicles 

Program in early spring 2024, and the 

2024 DERA grant program in summer 

2024, and is overseeing the 2023 Clean 

School Bus Grantees, who began 

reporting in mid-2024. 

While these programs each have 

unique statutory requirements, there are 

key aspects that unite them as mobile 

source emissions reduction efforts, and 

by combining them as a cohort of 

programs under one ICR, EPA aims to 

enrich data quality across our programs 

and to ease burden on applicants and
