The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) plans to submit a request for collecting information on its WaterSense® Program to the Office of Management and Budget. This program aims to promote water-efficient products with a common label. The EPA is inviting public comments for 60 days about the information collection process, which will help evaluate the program and gather data on product performance and consumer satisfaction. The estimated burden for respondents, including manufacturers and retailers, amounts to 8,710 hours annually, costing around $989,335 each year.
Simple Explanation
The EPA wants to keep checking how well a water-saving plan called WaterSense works and wants people to share their thoughts about it. They need help understanding some things because they're asking for more time and money than before and haven't explained everything clearly yet.
