Office of Research and Development

    Title: Milk Cow and Population Survey (EPA No. 1221.04; OMB No. 
2080-0017).
    Abstract: This ICR is a renewal of an existing information 
collection. Under 44 U.S.C. 3501(1)(3), the EPA conducts an annual or 
biennial survey of dairy farms and ranches within a 300 kilometer 
radius of the Nevada Test Site (NTS). The information collected 
includes the location of dairy farms and ranches, and the diet and 
number of milk-producing livestock at these farms and ranches. The EPA 
compiles this information in a directory that is used, along with other 
data, to predict radiation exposure levels outside of the NTS. The 
directory may also be used by the EPA to develop a sampling strategy 
following a release of radioactivity from the NTS.
    Burden Statement: Public reporting burden for this collection of 
information is estimated to average 30 minutes per response including 
reviewing instructions, searching existing information sources, 
maintaining records, and completing and reviewing the collection of 
information.
    Respondents: Farms.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 565.
    Frequency of Collection: Annual.
    Estimated Number of Responses per Respondent: 1.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden on Respondents: 283 hours.
    Send comments regarding the burden estimate, or any other aspect of 
this collection of information, including suggestions for reducing the 
burden, to:
