Short Statement: This non-substantive revision to the currently approved ICR, incorporates the activities and burdens associated with reading the guidance documents and additional outreach to stakeholders about submitting Test Orders to the Agency (see ICs for Review Guidance Documents, Test Orders & Pre-Issuance Outreach) that were recently approved under a separate ICR entitled “User Guide for submitting TSCA Section 4 Test Order Information,” and identified by EPA ICR No. 2697.01 and approved under OMB Control No. 2070-0215. Merging those activities and related burden into this ICR is appropriate because the activities are integrated components of the same information collection program. Doing so results in an overall increase of 873 hours in the total respondent burden that is currently approved by OMB for this ICR for the three-year period.
