An Information Collection Request (ICR) is a federal agency's request for approval from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to collect information from the public.
Under the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA), agencies must justify why the information is needed and how it will be used.
Federal agencies are required to submit an ICR whenever they create, renew, modify, or discontinue an information collection. Each ICR includes a description of the collection,
supporting materials and documentation (such as forms, surveys, or scripts), and proof that the agency has met the requirements of the PRA.
The ICR is submitted to the The Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA) within OMB for review and approval. OIRA grants approval for a maximum of three years, after
which the collection must be renewed through a new ICR submission.
ICRs are publicly available on RegInfo.gov, and additional guidance can be found in the FAQs.
Note: Presidential Action influences are notated for ICRs received between January 20, 2025 and July 19, 2025.

Medicare Outpatient Observation Notice (MOON) (CMS-10611)
Key Information
Abstract
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) requests a new collection named the Medicare Outpatient Observation Notice (MOON), Form CMS-10611, as the written notice promulgated by the Notice of Observation Treatment and Implication for Care Eligibility Act (NOTICE Act) Public Law 114-42 enacted by Congress on August 6, 2015 and effective 12 months after the date of the enactment which is August 6, 2016. The NOTICE Act amended Section 1866(a)(1) of the Social Security Act (the Act) (42 U.S.C. 1395cc(a)(1)) by adding subparagraph (Y) which sets forth requirements for Medicare participating hospitals and critical access hospitals (CAHs) to provide outpatient notification to persons entitled to Medicare benefits under Title XVIII of Act, who are hospital observation patients for more than 24 hours. Notification must be given no later than 36 hours after the initiation of observation services. This notification process consists of a written notice as determined by the Secretary, which will be the MOON, and an oral explanation of the written notice. The notice must include the reason the individual is receiving observation services and must explain the implications of receiving outpatient observation services, such as cost sharing, and post-hospitalization eligibility for Medicare coverage of skilled nursing facility (SNF) services. The MOON is a standardized notice written in plain language that includes all of the informational elements required by statute. |

Records of Operations - Importer of Tobacco Products or Processed Tobacco
Key Information
Abstract
The Internal Revenue Code (IRC) at 26 U.S.C. 5741 requires all manufacturers and importers of tobacco products, processed tobacco, or cigarette papers and tubes, and all export warehouse proprietors to keep records as the Secretary of the Treasury prescribes by regulation, subject to government inspection during business hours. Under that authority, the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB) regulations in 27 CFR part 41 require importers of tobacco products or processed tobacco to maintain the usual and customary records kept during the normal course of business showing the receipt and disposition of imported tobacco products or processed tobacco. TTB uses the collected information to ensure that importers’ activities comply with the IRC and that processed tobacco, which is not taxed, is not diverted to taxable tobacco product manufacturing. |

NESHAP for Nine Metal Fabrication and Area Finishing Source (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart XXXXXX) (Renewal)
Key Information
Abstract
The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP), for Nine Metal Fabrication and Finishing Area Sources (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart XXXXXX) apply to owners or operators of any existing or new metal fabrication and finishing facility that is an area source of hazardous air pollutant (HAP) emissions and uses or has the potential to emit metal fabrication or finishing metal HAP (MFHAP), defined to be the compounds of cadmium, chromium, lead, manganese, and nickel, or any of these metals in the elemental form with the exception of lead. The affected sources consist of several types of metal fabrication and finishing processes, including any abrasive blasting, metalworking (which includes machining, and dry grinding and dry polishing with machines), spray painting, and welding operations. New facilities include those that commenced construction or reconstruction after the date of proposal. In general, all NESHAP standards require initial notifications, performance tests, and periodic reports by the owners/operators of the affected facilities. They are also required to maintain records of the occurrence and duration of any startup, shutdown, or malfunction in the operation of an affected facility, or any period during which the monitoring system is inoperative. These notifications, reports, and records are essential in determining compliance, and are required of all affected facilities subject to NESHAP. This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart XXXXXX. |
