Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 92 / Thursday, May 14, 2009 / Notices 22739 

of our adequacy findings, the Southern 

Nevada Regional Transportation 

Commission (RTC) and the U.S. 

Department of Transportation must use 

these budgets in future transportation 

conformity analyses once the finding 

becomes effective. 

DATES: This finding is effective May 29, 

2009.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Throughout this document, whenever 

‘‘we,’’ ‘‘us,’’ or ‘‘our’’ is used, we mean 

EPA. 

Today’s notice is simply an 

announcement of a finding that we have 

already made. EPA Region IX sent a 

letter to NDEP on May 5, 2009 stating 

that the motor vehicle emissions 

budgets in the submitted Clark County 

Ozone EPP for the year 2008 are 

adequate. Receipt of the motor vehicle 

emissions budgets in the Clark County 

Ozone EPP was announced on EPA’s 

transportation conformity Web site on 

August 19, 2008. We received no 

comments in response to the adequacy 

review posting. The finding is available 

at EPA’s conformity Web site: http:// 

www.epa.gov/otaq/stateresources/ 

transconf/adequacy.htm. 

The adequate motor vehicle emissions 

budgets are provided in the following 

table: 

Motor vehicle emissions budgets (Ozone 

season) 

Budget year 

Volatile 

organic 

compounds 

(tons per 

day) 

Nitrogen 

oxides 

(tons per 

day) 

2008 .................. 64.2 76.1 

Transportation conformity is required 

by Clean Air Act section 176(c). EPA’s 

conformity rule requires that 

transportation plans, transportation 

improvement programs, and projects 

conform to state air quality 

implementation plans (SIPs) and 

establishes the criteria and procedures 

for determining whether or not they do. 

Conformity to an SIP means that 

transportation activities will not 

produce new air quality violations, 

worsen existing violations, or delay 

timely attainment of the national 

ambient air quality standards. 

The criteria by which we determine 

whether an SIP’s motor vehicle 

emission budgets are adequate for 

conformity purposes are outlined in 40 

CFR 93.118(e)(4) which was 

promulgated in our August 15, 1997 

final rule (62 FR 43780, 43781–43783). 

We have described our process for 

determining the adequacy of submitted 

SIP budgets in our July 1, 2004 

preamble starting at 69 FR 40038 and 

we used the information in these 

resources in making our adequacy 

determination. Please note that an 

adequacy review is separate from EPA’s 

completeness review, and should not be 

used to prejudge EPA’s ultimate 

approval action for the SIP. Even if we 

find a budget adequate, the SIP could 

later be disapproved.

ICR Status: This ICR is for a new 

information collection activity. 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 


pwalker on PROD1PC71 with NOTICES
22740 Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 92 / Thursday, May 14, 2009 / Notices 

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: The Environmental 

Protection Agency (EPA or the Agency) 

is proposing to initiate a new 

information collection activity. EPA 

intends to initiate a voluntary 

information collection for consumer 

research involving the conduct of 

surveys, focus groups and one-on-one 

interviews to test various versions of 

pesticide product labels and other 

informational materials developed for 

the general public. The pesticide label 

provides critical information about how 

to handle and safely use the pesticide 

product and avoid harm to human 

health and the environment. Every 

pesticide product must bear a label 

containing the information specified by 

FIFRA as established in EPA’s labeling 

regulations at 40 CFR 156.10. The 

purpose for such consumer research is 

to identify the consumer’s 

understanding of the information on a 

pesticide product label. EPA would use 

this information to formulate decisions 

and policies affecting the labeling of 

pesticide products. The ultimate goal of 

this activity is to assure that the 

consumer can effectively use this 

information to select the pesticide 

product most likely to meet their needs 

and readily understand label 

instructions regarding product use. 

The collected information would be 

used to revise pesticide product labels 

and to create other user friendly 

consumer information materials. It is 

anticipated that several surveys, focus 

groups, and/or one-on-one interviews 

would be conducted over the life of the 

ICR. 

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 40 

CFR are listed in 40 CFR part 9 and are 

identified on the form and/or 

instrument, if applicable. 

Burden Statement: The annual public 

reporting and recordkeeping burden for 

this collection of information is 

estimated to average 0.89 hours per 

response. Burden means the total time, 

effort, or financial resources expended 

by persons to generate, maintain, retain, 

or disclose or provide information to or 

for a Federal agency. This includes the 

time needed to review instructions; 

develop, acquire, install, and utilize 

technology and systems for the purposes 

of collecting, validating, and verifying 

information, processing and 

maintaining information, and disclosing 

and providing information; adjust the 

existing ways to comply with any 

previously applicable instructions and 

requirements; train personnel to be able 

to respond to a collection of 

information; search data sources; 

complete and review the collection of 

information; and transmit or otherwise 

disclose the information. 

Respondents/Affected Entities: 

General Public. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

2,922. 

Frequency of Response: On occasion. 

Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 

381. 

Estimated Total Annual Cost: $9,587. 

Changes in the Estimates: None. This 

is a new ICR request. 

Dated: May 8, 2009.
