Abstract:
This data collection program is designed to provide EPA with necessary data to evaluate an application for registration of a pesticide product as required under Section 3 of the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA) and section 408 of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA). Under FIFRA, EPA must evaluate pesticides thoroughly before they can be marketed and used in the United States, to ensure that they will not pose unreasonable adverse effects to human health and the environment. Pesticides that meet this test are granted a license or "registration" which permits their distribution, sale and use according to requirements set by EPA to protect human health and the environment.

Burden Reduction Due to:
Short Statement:
There is a net increase of 1,356,689 hours in the total estimated respondent burden compared with the ICR previously approved by OMB. The increase is the result of EPA’s updating of the methodology used to estimate the paperwork burden that involves the addition of previously unaccounted for burden for study data generation; while a decrease of approximately 23,000 hours reflects EPA's receipt of fewer applications. These changes are an adjustment.
