SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: EPA has submitted the following ICR to OMB
for review and approval according to the procedures prescribed in 5 CFR
1320.12. On Wednesday, December 14, 2011 (76 FR 77817), EPA sought
comments on this ICR pursuant to 5 CFR 1320.8(d). EPA received 3
comments during the comment period, which are addressed in the ICR. Any
additional comments on this ICR should be submitted to EPA and OMB
within 30 days of this notice.
    EPA has established a public docket for this ICR under Docket ID
No. EPA-HQ-OPP-2011-0843, which is available for online viewing at
www.regulations.gov, or in person viewing at the Office of Pesticide
Programs (OPP) Regulatory Public Docket in the EPA Docket Center (EPA/
DC), EPA West, Room 3334, 1301 Constitution Ave. NW., Washington, DC.
The EPA/DC Public Reading Room is open from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Monday
through Friday, excluding legal holidays. The telephone number for the
Reading Room is<PHONE_NUMBER>, and the telephone number for the OPP
Regulatory Public Docket is<PHONE_NUMBER>.
    Use EPA's electronic docket and comment system at
www.regulations.gov, to submit or view public comments, access the
index listing of the contents of the docket, and to access those
documents in the docket that are available electronically. Once in the
system, select ``docket search,'' then key in the docket ID number
identified above. Please note that EPA's policy is that public
comments, whether submitted electronically or in paper, will be made
available for public viewing at www.regulations.gov as EPA receives
them and without change, unless the comment contains copyrighted
material, confidential business information (CBI), or other information
whose public disclosure is restricted by statute. For further
information about the electronic docket, go to www.regulations.gov.
    Title: Notice of Arrival of Pesticides and Devices under section
17(c) of FIFRA.
    ICR Numbers: EPA ICR No. 0152.10, OMB Control No. 2070-0020.
    ICR Status: This ICR is scheduled to expire on August 31, 2012.
Under OMB regulations, the Agency may continue to conduct or sponsor
the collection of information while this submission is pending at OMB.
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 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 Customs and Border Protection (CBP) regulations at 19
CFR 12.112 require that an importer desiring to import a pesticide or
device into the United States shall, prior to the shipment's arrival in
the United States, submit a Notice of Arrival of Pesticides and Devices
(EPA Form 3540-1) to EPA. EPA Form 3540-1 requires the identification
and contact information of parties involved in the importation of the
pesticide or device and information on the identity of the imported
pesticide or device shipment. EPA will review the form and indicate the
disposition of the shipment upon its arrival in the United States. Upon
completing Form 3540-1, EPA returns the form to the importer of record
or authorized agent, who must present the form to CBP upon arrival of
the shipment at the port of entry. This is necessary to ensure that EPA
is notified of the arrival of pesticides and devices as required under
FIFRA section 17(c), and that EPA has the ability to examine such
shipments to determine compliance with FIFRA. Upon the arrival of the
shipment, the importer presents the completed Notice of Arrival (NOA)
to the CBP District Director at the port of entry. CBP compares entry
documents for the shipment with the NOA and notifies the EPA regional
office of any discrepancies.
    During this renewal of this information collection, EPA is revising
EPA Form 3540-1. The revisions clarify the instructions for completing
the form, revise the data items, and update the terminology used on the
form to be consistent with those used by CBP. In addition, EPA is
capturing the burden of providing supplemental information submitted
with Form 3540-1 to the Agency by most importers on a voluntary basis.
    Burden Statement: The annual public reporting and recordkeeping
burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 0.43
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 which have subsequently changed; 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: Entities potentially affected by
this ICR are individuals or entities that import pesticides into the
United States. The North American Industrial Classification System
(NAICS) codes

assigned to the parties responding to this information collection
include NAICS code 236220 (Commercial and Institutional Building
Construction), Sector 11 (Agriculture, Forestry, Fishing and Hunting),
and Sector 42 (Wholesale Trade). The majority of responses come from
entities that fall under NAICS code 325300 (Pesticide and Other
Agricultural Chemical Manufacturing).
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 28,000.
    Frequency of Response: On occasion.
    Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden: 12,040.
    Estimated Total Annual Cost: $685,146, includes $0 annualized
capital or O&M costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is an increase of 4540 hours in the
total estimated burden currently identified in the OMB Inventory of
Approved ICR Burdens. This increase is a result of an increase in the
annual number of NOAs submitted and an increase in the burden hours per
response. The average, annual number of NOAs submitted to EPA increased
from 25,000 to 28,000. The average burden hours per response will
change from 0.3 hours for the previous ICR renewal to 0.43 hours for
this ICR renewal. This change in burden hours per response is a result
of changes to the data items on EPA Form 3450-1, and well as an
accounting of the burden of voluntarily submitting certain information.
Specifically, this burden estimate accounts for the new burdens related
to providing information for the telephone numbers and email addresses
of the shipper, importer of record, and licensed customs broker, when
supplying name and address information, and for the complete address,
including telephone and email address, of the carrier be provided. In
addition, EPA is accounting for the burden of voluntarily providing
active ingredients and percentage of each, supporting documentation for
registered and unregistered pesticides, as well as intended use
information for unregistered pesticides. This change is an adjustment.

Director, Collection Strategies Division.
