Abstract:
This Information Collection Requests (ICR) covers the paperwork burden hours and costs associated with the information collection activities under the pesticide registration fee programs implemented through the Office of Pesticide Programs (OPP), Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Pesticide registrants are required by statute to pay an annual registration maintenance fee for all products registered under Section 3 and Section 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 (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.

Short Statement:
The total annual burden for respondents associated with payment of the pesticide product registration maintenance fee is 1,993 hours, up from 1,651 hours previously, due a minor adjustment EPA's estimated burden per response, as well as a slight increase in the number of responses. The total estimated annual burden for pesticide registration service fee waiver applications has increased slightly, from 5,611 hours in the existing ICR to 5,914 hours for this renewal, due to a slight increase in the number of responses. For the same reason, there is also a slight increase in the estimated annual O&M cost (from $2,930 to $3,070).
