The goals of the Internet survey are to
(1)Identify the types of information that users of insect repellents want on the label of an insect repellent and
(2)test four versions of efficacy marks, a graphic that could be placed on the front label of an insect repellent, that would standardize the presentation of information on how long the insect repellent repels ticks and mosquitoes. For the first efficacy mark viewed, participants would provide information on their understanding of the efficacy mark, just as if they came across the mark on a product label with no prior explanation of what the mark could mean. Participants would rate all of the efficacy marks for understandability and usefulness, and then indicate a preferred choice. EPA would use this information to formulate decisions and policies affecting future labeling of insect repellents. The ultimate goal of this activity is to help the consumer to effectively use the information on the label to select the insect repellent product most likely to meet their needs and readily understand label instructions regarding safe product use. Responses to this collection of information are voluntary. One survey would be conducted over the life of this ICR. The collected information could be used to revise insect repellent product labels and to create other user friendly consumer information materials. By enabling consumers to make better choices in regard to purchasing and using products intended to protect their health, EPA will more effectively carry out its mandate to protect the public from unreasonable risks to human health. *Burden Statement:* The annual public reporting and recordkeeping burden for this collection of information is estimated to average 15 minutes per response. Burden is defined in 5 CFR 1320.3(b). *Respondents/Affected Entities:* members of the general public would participate in the survey. *Estimated Number of Potential Respondents:* 3000. *Frequency of Response:* One time. *Estimated Total Annual Hour Burden:* 750 hours. *Estimated Total Annual Cost:* $15,675. *Changes in the Estimates:* This is a new collection. Dated: June 3, 2011. John Moses, Director, Collection Strategies Division. [FR Doc. 2011-14300 Filed 6-8-11; 8:45 am]
