    Abstract: Producers of pesticides and pesticide devices must 
maintain certain records with respect to their operations and make such 
records available for inspection and copying as specified in Section 8 
of the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA) and 
in regulations at 40 CFR part 169. This information collection is 
mandatory under FIFRA Section 8. It is used by the Agency to determine 
compliance with FIFRA.
    Form Numbers: None.
    Respondents/affected entities: Producers of pesticides and 
pesticide devices for sale or distribution in or exported to the United 
States.
    Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (40 CFR 169).
    Estimated number of respondents: 28,566 (total).
    Frequency of response: Annually.
    Total estimated burden: 57,132 hours (per year). Burden is defined 
at 5 CFR 1320.3(b).
    Total estimated cost: $7,545,424 (per year), which includes no 
annualized capital or operation & maintenance costs.
    Changes in the Estimates: There is an increase of 28,238 hours in 
the total estimated burden currently identified in the OMB Inventory of 
Approved ICR Burdens. This increase is due to an adjustment in the 
estimates of the number of respondents.
