This ICR covers the PRA paperwork burden associated with two types of pesticide registration requests made by states, U.S. Territories, or Federal agencies under the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA), 7 U.S.C. 136a et seq.: (1) Emergency exemption requests, which allow for an unregistered use of a pesticide; and (2) Requests by states to register a pesticide use to meet a special local need (SLN). FIFRA section 18 allows EPA to grant emergency exemptions to states, U.S. Territories, and Federal agencies to allow an unregistered use of a pesticide for a limited time if EPA determines that emergency conditions exist. Section 18 requests include unregistered pesticide use exemptions for specific agricultural, public health, and quarantine purposes. FIFRA section 24(c) allows EPA to grant permission to a particular state to register additional uses of a federally registered pesticide for distribution and use within that state to meet a SLN.

The estimated per respondent burden for a given FIFRA section 18 request is unchanged. EPA estimates that the total annual respondent burden has increased from 12,672 hours to about 18,315 hours. The increase corresponds with an increase in the average number of Sections 18s requested per year, from 128 to 185. There is no change In the estimated respondent burden hours per Special Local Need application for this ICR from the currently-approved ICR for Section 24(c) applications, for either registrants or states. The total annual respondent burden estimate (registrant + states) has decreased slightly from 16,900 to 15860 hours due to a small decrease in the average number of petitions received annually, from about 325 to 305.
