    The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is seeking public comments on a proposed extension for collecting information related to pesticide use, as required by specific sections of the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA). This process involves collecting information from various entities like states and federal agencies about emergency exemptions for unregistered pesticide use and special local needs for additional pesticide uses. The current approval for this information collection expires on February 28, 2021, and the EPA is offering an additional 30-day period for public feedback. The estimated annual burden for respondents, which include state and federal government agencies and agricultural chemical manufacturers, is 25,753 hours, costing a total of $1,829,103.

    Simple Explanation

    The EPA wants to keep collecting information about how some pesticides are used in emergencies or special cases. They are asking people to comment on this plan for another month before the February deadline.
