Title: HOUSEHOLD SURVEYS OF CHEMICAL PRODUCT USAGE
Type of Information Collection: Revision of a currently approved collection	Common Form ICR:  No
Type of Review Request: Regular
OIRA Conclusion Action: Approved without change	Conclusion Date: 09/15/1987
	Date Received in OIRA: 06/19/1987
Terms of Clearance: OMB is approving the plan to conduct additional household surveys of chemical product usage. Howver, the practical utility of the survey greatly depends on the chemical product itself. Several of the candidates listed on page five of the ICR seem without merit. As a result, no burden hour clearance is being given at this time, only the approval of the plan. For individual surveys (like air fresheners, toilet bowl cakes, and mothballs), EPA must submit an amendment to this plan which justifies the need for the survey with an estimate of the respondant burden. In this way, the real burden of each survey can be accounted for accurately. This plan is approved for three years during which amendments will be considered by OMB.
