46248 Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 157 / Wednesday, August 18, 2021 / Notices 

1. Registering with CDX. To submit 

electronically to EPA via CDX, a user 

would register with CDX at: http://

cdx.epa.gov/epa_home.asp. CDX 

registration enables EPA to authenticate 

user identities and verify user 

authorizations. 

To register in CDX, the CDX registrant 

(also referred to as ‘‘Electronic Signature 

Holder’’ or ‘‘Public/Private Key 

Holder’’) would agree to the Terms and 

Conditions, provide information about 

the user and organization, select a username and password, and follow the 

procedures outlined in the guidance 

document for CDX available online at: 

http://www.epa.gov/cdr/tools/CDX_

Registration_Guide_v0_02.pdf. 

2. Submission. Those choosing to 

submit electronically will use PSP to 

prepare their submissions. Then the 

submitter will choose ‘‘FPAS 

submission’’ from the drop-down which 

guides users through a ‘‘hands-on’’ 

process of creating an electronic 

submission. Once a user completes the 

relevant data fields and attaches 

appropriate PDF files or other file types, 

such as XML files, the web-based tool 

validates the submission by performing 

a basic error check and makes sure all 

the required fields and attachments are 

provided and complete. 

Further instructions on submitting 

information and instructions for 

uploading PDF attachments or other file 

types, such as XML will be available 

through FPAS reporting guidance 

available online at: https://

www.epa.gov/pesticide-registration/ 

electronic-submissions-pesticideapplications. 

D. Can CBI be submitted using PSP? 

Yes. PSP enables the user to submit 

CBI and substantiate that CBI claim in 

an electronic format. All information 

sent by the user via CDX is transmitted 

securely to protect CBI. PSP also guides 

the user through the process of 

submitting CBI by prompting the user to 

check a CBI checkbox if using a form or 

by submitting a scanned document 

containing CBI by bracketing, 

underlining, or otherwise marking the 

confidential information on the 

document prior to scanning. As with 

paper-based submissions, a sanitized 

copy of any document containing CBI 

would be included by the user in the 

electronic submission. The FPAS 

reporting guidance instructs users on 

how to submit CBI and substantiate CBI 

claims information using PSP. 

E. How will CBI be protected when 

submitting via CDX? 

The Agency ensures secure 

transmission of the data, reports, and 

other documents sent from the user 

through the internet via the Transport 

Layer Security (TLS) 1.0 protocol. TLS 

1.0 is a widely used approach for 

securing internet transactions and is 

endorsed by the National Institute of 

Standards and Technology (NIST) as a 

means for protecting data sent over the 

internet. See NIST Special Publication 

800–52, ‘‘Guidelines for the Selection 

and Use of Transport Layer Security 

(TLS) Implementations,’’ available 

online at: http://csrc.nist.gov/ 

publications/nistpubs/800-52/SP800- 

52.pdf. 

In addition, PSP enables the submitter 

to electronically sign, encrypt, and 

transmit submissions, which the Agency 

subsequently provides back to the user 

as an unaltered copy of record. This 

assures the user that the Agency has 

received exactly what the user sent to 

the Agency. PSP encrypts using a 

module based on the 256-bit Advanced 

Encryption Standard (AES) adopted by 

NIST. Details about AES can be found 

on the NIST website at: http://

csrc.nist.gov/publications/fips/fips197/ 

fips-197.pdf. EPA may incorporate other 

encryption modules into future versions 

of PSP. Information submitted via CDX 

is processed within EPA by secure 

systems certified for compliance with 

Federal Information Processing 

Standards (FIPS) that are available 

online at: http://www.nist.gov/itl/ 

fips.cfm. 

III. 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 OMB approval under the 

PRA, unless it has been approved by 

OMB and 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, are listed in 40 CFR 

part 9, and included on the related 

collection instrument or form, if 

applicable. 

The information collection 

requirements associated with the 

electronic option for FPAS notifications 

under FIFRA section 17(a)(2) and 40 

CFR 168.75 were approved by OMB 

pursuant to the PRA under OMB 

Control No. 2070–0027 (EPA ICR No. 

0161.15) on August 6, 2021. The 

addition of an electronic option for 

submissions does not change the 

requirements or add new burden 

requiring additional OMB approval. The 

annual paperwork burden per FPAS 

notification is estimated to average 

2,940 hours for hardcopy submissions 

and 1,803 hours for electronic 

submissions. This burden estimate 

includes the time needed to review 

instructions, search existing data 

sources, gather and maintain the data 

needed, and complete, review, and 

submit the required export notification 

to EPA. For additional details, please 

see the Information Collection Request 

document that is available in the docket. 

Send any comments about the 

accuracy of the burden estimate, and 

any suggested methods for further 

minimizing respondent burden, 

including through the use of automated 

collection techniques, to the Director, 

Regulatory Support Division, Office of 

Mission Support (2822T), 

Environmental Protection Agency, 1200 

Pennsylvania Ave. NW, Washington, DC 

20460–0001. Please remember to 

include the OMB control number in any 

correspondence, but do not submit any 

FPAS notifications or related questions 

to this address. 

Authority: 7 U.S.C. 136 et seq. 

Dated: August 12, 2021.
