Office of Prevention, Pesticides and Toxic Substances
Title: Requirements for the use of 1080 Collars for Livestock
Protection (EPA ICR No. 1249.04; OMB No. 2070-0074). This is a request
for extension of the expiration date of a currently approved
collection.
Abstract: Sodium monoflouroacetate (Compound 1080), a previously
banned pesticide, was re-approved for use in a new delivery mechanism,
the toxic collar. The EPA requires certified applicators, States, and
registrants to monitor the use and effectiveness of the collar. The
respondents are required to submit to the EPA an annual report
containing the monitoring data. In addition, certified applicators must
report to the States or the EPA all incidents of accidental poisoning
of humans and domestic animals, as well as non-target species, and they
must keep records of any hazards caused by the collar. The Agency uses
these data to monitor the use of the collar, and to ensure the safety
of livestock.
Burden Statement: The burden for this collection of information is
estimated to average 37.1 hours per response for reporting, and 2.9
hours per recordkeeper annually. This estimate includes the time needed
to review instructions, gather the data needed, and review the
collection of information.
Respondents: Toxic collar applicators.
Estimated No. of Respondents: 151 Certified pesticide applicators,
4 states, and 6 registrants.
Estimated No. of Responses per Respondent: 1.
Estimated Total Annual Burden on Respondents: 6,439 hours.
Frequency of Collection: Annually and on occasion.

the information collection, including suggestions for reducing the
burden, to:
