Authorization Management Program
(FedRAMP) and Federal Information
Security Modernization Act (FISMA)
hosting environment. Data located in
the cloud-based server is firewalled and
encrypted at rest and in transit. The
security mechanisms for handling data
at rest and in transit are in accordance
with DOE encryption standards.
Records are protected from
unauthorized access through the
following appropriate safeguards:
• Administrative: Access to all
records is limited to lawful government
purposes only, with access to electronic
records based on role and either twofactor authentication or password
protection. The system requires
passwords to be complex and to be
changed frequently. Users accessing
system records undergo frequent
training in Privacy Act and information
security requirements. Security and
privacy controls are reviewed on an
ongoing basis.
• Technical: Computerized records
systems are safeguarded on
Departmental networks configured for
role-based access based on job
responsibilities and organizational
affiliation. Privacy and security controls
are in place for this system and are
updated in accordance with applicable
requirements as determined by NIST
and DOE directives and guidance.
• Physical: Computer servers on
which electronic records are stored are
located in secured Department facilities,
which are protected by security guards,
identification badges, and cameras.
Paper copies of all records are locked in
file cabinets, file rooms, or offices and
are under the control of authorized
personnel. Access to these facilities is
granted only to authorized personnel
and each person granted access to the
system must be an individual
authorized to use or administer the
system.

I. What information is EPA particularly
interested in?
ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION
AGENCY
Pursuant to PRA section 3506(c)(2)(A)
(44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)), EPA
specifically solicits comments and
information to enable it to:
1. Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the Agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility.
2. Evaluate the accuracy of the
Agency’s estimates of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used.
3. Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected.
4. Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including through the
use of appropriate automated electronic,
mechanical, or other technological
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology, e.g., permitting
electronic submission of responses. In
particular, EPA is requesting comments
from very small businesses (those that
employ less than 25) on examples of
specific additional efforts that EPA
could make to reduce the paperwork
burden for very small businesses
affected by this collection.

II. What information collection activity
or ICR does this action apply to?
Title: Pesticide Environmental
Stewardship Program Annual Measures
Reporting.
EPA ICR No.: 2415.05.
OMB Control No. 2070–0188.
ICR status: This ICR is currently
approved through July 31, 2025. Under
the PRA, 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 Code of Federal Regulations
(CFR), after appearing in the Federal
Register when approved, 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 for
certain EPA regulations is consolidated
in 40 CFR part 9.
Abstract: This information collection
request (ICR) collects information to
establish partner membership, develop
stewardship strategies, measure progress
towards stewardship goals, and award
incentives. PESP is an EPA partnership
program that encourages the use of
integrated pest management (IPM)
strategies to reduce pests and pesticide
risks. IPM is an approach that involves
making the best choices from among a
series of pest management practices that
are both economical and pose the least
possible hazard to people, property, and
the environment.
Burden statement: The annual public
reporting and recordkeeping burden for
this collection of information is
estimated to average 51,562 hours.
Burden is defined in 5 CFR 1320.3(b).
The ICR, which is available in the
docket along with other related
materials, provides a detailed
explanation of the collection activities
and the burden estimate that is only
briefly summarized here:
Respondents/affected entities: Entities
potentially affected are Pesticide user
companies and organizations, or entities
that practice IPM or promote the use of
IPM through education and training. A
list of potentially affected entities with
North American Industrial
Classification System (NAICS) codes
provided to assist in determining
potential applicability in question 12.
Respondent’s obligation to respond:
Voluntary.
Forms: 9600–1, 9600–02 and 9600–03.
Frequency of response: Annual and
on occasion.
Total estimated number of potential
respondents: 456.
Total estimated average number of
responses for each respondent: 1.
Total estimated annual burden hours:
51,297 hours.
Total estimated annual respondent
costs: $ 3,884,334, which includes $ 0
for capital investment or maintenance
and operational costs.
III. Are there changes in the estimates
from the last approval?
EPA expects an increase in the
number of potential respondents from
437 to 456, with a corresponding burden
increase. This change is based on an
anticipated increase in entities
participating in the PESP Program.
There is also an increase in industry
cost by $382,790, which reflects the
