Application for Supplemental Security Income

Key Information

Abstract

SSA uses Form SSA-8001-BK to determine an applicant’s eligibility for SSI and SSI payment amounts. SSA employees also collect this information during interviews with members of the public who wish to file for SSI. SSA uses the information for two purposes: (1) to formally deny SSI for nonmedical reasons when information the applicant provides results in ineligibility; or (2) to establish a disability claim, but defer the complete development of non-medical issues until SSA approves the disability. The respondents are applicants for SSI payments.

Visual Representations for Proportional Reasoning: Impacts of a Teacher Professional Development Program for Multilingual Learners and Other Students

Key Information

Abstract

This submission is a request for approval of data collection activities that will be used to support the Northeast and Islands Regional Educational Laboratory (REL) Visual Representations for Proportional Reasoning: Impacts of a Teacher Professional Development Program for Multilingual Learners and Other Students. The study is being funded by the Institute of Education Sciences (IES) U.S. Department of Education and is being implemented by Education Development Center (EDC) and its subcontractor, American Institutes for Research (AIR). This submission requests approval to recruit schools for the study, and administer measures to teachers and students. This study aims to contribute to the evidence base on professional development associated with improved student outcomes for multilingual learners (MLLs) in mathematics. The Visual Access to Mathematics Professional Development (VAM PD) leverages recent and rigorous evidence on the importance of visual representations (VRs) and integrates language and content to support MLLs in proportional reasoning. Proportional reasoning content is a major emphasis in grade 7 math content standards in most U.S. states, and is fundamental to success in subsequent mathematics coursework. Prior research has demonstrated positive impacts of the Visual Access to Mathematics Professional Development (VAM PD) on teacher outcomes (DePiper, et al., 2021b, Louie et al., 2022, DePiper et al., 2019 & DePiper, et al., 2021a). This study will fill the gap in information about how VAM PD impacts student outcomes. In the current study, we will collect pre- and post- data from both teachers and students to examine what impact the VAM PD has on student learning. Teachers in participating schools will be assigned randomly to either a treatment or control group. Both groups will complete (1) a measure of mathematical content knowledge, (2) a measure of teacher ability to analyze student work, and (3) a brief survey/questionnaire about instructional practices in fall 2023 and again in spring 2024. Students taught by teachers in both conditions will complete (1) a measure of mathematical content knowledge, (2) three items related to VRs, and (3) a survey regarding attitudes toward mathematics. Data collected will be summarized and analyzed using multilevel modeling to understand the efficacy of the VAM PD on both teacher and student level outcomes.

NESHAP for Polyvinyl Chloride and Copolymer Production (40 CFR part 63, subpart HHHHHHH) (Renewal)

Key Information

Abstract

The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for Polyvinyl Chloride and Copolymers Production (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart HHHHHHH) apply to both existing and new PVC production facilities. Area source PVC facilities are subject to 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart DDDDDD and not covered in this ICR. 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 HHHHHHH.

Oil Pollution Act Facility Response Plans (Renewal)

Key Information

Abstract

The authority for EPAs facility response plan (FRP) requirements is derived from section 311(j)(5) of the Clean Water Act, as amended by the Oil Pollution Act of 1990. EPAs regulation is codified at 40 CFR 112.20 and 112.21 and related appendices. The purpose of an FRP is to help an owner or operator identify the necessary resources to respond to an oil discharge in a timely manner. If implemented effectively, the FRP will reduce the impact and severity of oil discharges and may prevent discharges because of the identification of risks at the facility. Although the owner or operator is the primary data user, EPA also uses the data in certain situations to ensure that facilities comply with the regulation and to help allocate response resources. State and local governments may use the data, which are not generally available elsewhere, and can greatly assist local emergency preparedness planning efforts. The EPA reviews all submitted FRPs and must approve FRPs for those facilities whose discharges may cause significant and substantial harm to the environment to ensure that facilities believed to pose the highest risk have planned for adequate resources and procedures to respond to oil discharges (See 40 CFR 112.20(f)(3) for further information about the criteria for significant and substantial harm.). No information collected under the FRP rule is expected to be confidential. One of the criteria necessary for information to be classified as proprietary business information (40 CFR 2.208) is that a business must show that it has previously taken reasonable measures to protect the confidentiality of the information and that it intends to continue to take such measures. EPA provides no assurances of confidentiality to facility owners or operators when they file their FRPs.

Evaluation of the Supportive Services Demonstration

Key Information

Abstract

The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD)’s Office of Policy Research and Development is undertaking an evaluation of the Supportive Services Demonstration (demonstration, or SSD). SSD is designed to test the impact of housing-based supportive services on the healthcare utilization and housing stability of low-income adults aged 62 and over. The demonstration offers grant funding to HUD-assisted multifamily property owners to implement the Integrated Wellness in Supportive Housing (IWISH) model over the demonstration period. The IWISH model features a full-time on-site Resident Wellness Director with a part-time Wellness Nurse at each property funded to implement IWISH. The Resident Wellness Director and Wellness Nurse work together to implement a formal strategy for coordinating services to help residents meet their long-term care needs and successfully age in place. HUD designed the SSD as a cluster-randomized controlled trial to allow rigorous measurement of impacts. HUD published a Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) in January 2016 for the demonstration, received more than 700 responses, and applied screening and ranking criteria described in the NOFA to identify 185 properties across seven states as eligible for random assignment. HUD assigned properties to three groups: a treatment group that received grant funding to hire the Resident Wellness Director and Wellness Nurse and implement the demonstration; an active control group that did not receive funding for implementation but received an incentive for participating in the evaluation; and a passive control group that received neither an implementation grant nor an incentive. The final demonstration sample is 124 HUD-assisted properties: 40 in the treatment group (also known as IWISH properties), 40 in the active control group, and 44 in the passive control group. All properties serve households headed by people aged 62 or over, either predominantly or exclusively. The properties are in the following states: California, Illinois, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, New Jersey, and South Carolina. Each state has treatment, active control, and passive control properties. The demonstration formally began October 1, 2017. The 40 properties in the treatment group implemented IWISH for an initial three-year demonstration period between October 2017 and September 2020. The Continuing Appropriations Act, 2021 and Other Extensions Act and the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021 provided additional funds and authorization to extend the demonstration for an additional two years (2021 – 2023).

Review of 8(a) Business Development Program & Relevant Information

Key Information

Abstract

The Small Business Administration (“SBA”) must collect this information to examine participants in SBA’s program under 15 U.S.C. § 637 (the “8(a) program”) in response to urgent concerns regarding small business federal contracting and subcontracting compliance by businesses participating in the program, as well as other instances of waste, fraud and abuse in the same program. This information will be used to determine continued eligibility, program and contract term compliance, and to identify instances of fraud. SBA is authorized to collect this information as part of its general investigative authority under the Small Business Act (codified at 15 U.S.C. § 634(b)(11)).Emergency Justfication:See attached memo. The Small Business Administration (“SBA”) requests emergency processing under 5 CFR 1320.13 for a new Information Collection Request (“ICR”). SBA seeks approval by November 18, 2025, to enable immediate collection of business data relating to participants in SBA’s business development program under 15 U.S.C. § 637 (the “8(a) program” and such participants “8(a) participants”). This data is essential to the mission of the SBA in order to examine participants in the 8(a) program in response to urgent concerns regarding small business federal contracting and subcontracting compliance by businesses participating in the program as well as other documented instances of waste, fraud and abuse within the same program. 5 CFR 1320.13(a)(1)(ii). Recent government-wide investigations by the Department of Justice, the Small Business Administration Office of Inspector General, and the Government Accountability Office, coupled with recent public allegations of illegal conduct by an 8(a) participant, have exposed systemic risks within the 8(a) program that make the program particularly susceptible to waste, fraud, and abuse. For example, risks of improper pass-through contracting and noncompliance with FAR 52.219-14, Limitations on Subcontracting, improper control of 8(a) firms, eligibility fraud, improper disbursements, and improper transfers of contractual responsibilities across the federal acquisition landscape have been identified. The absence of standardized, data-driven reporting on prime versus subcontractor labor utilization, for example, has been identified as a vulnerability throughout government. SBA’s request will increase visibility into the 8(a) program, strengthen internal surveillance and oversight of 8(a) participants, and reinforce public trust through proactive corrective measures. The public investigations and recent widespread reporting of the 8(a) program’s susceptibility to fraud mentioned above, together with the Department of Justice’s uncovering of a $550 million scandal involving 8(a) contracting at USAID, could jeopardize SBA’s efforts to investigate and counter fraud, waste and abuse in its 8(a) program, as explained further below. In particular, the recent publicity given to both fraud within the program and SBA’s efforts to address it have created a new urgency in requesting potential data essential to SBA’s mission and the integrity of the 8(a) program. The increased attention on the 8(a) program means that the use of normal clearance procedures is extremely likely to prevent or disrupt the collection of essential information that may be altered, destroyed or otherwise concealed by those seeking to evade enforcement. Because of these concerns and the identified systemic risks discussed above, the information must be collected prior to the expiration of the ordinary time periods for notice and comment. 5 CFR 1320.13(a)(1)(i). Delaying implementation until completion of normal Paperwork Reduction Act clearance procedures would undermine these efforts and perpetuate risk, including evidentiary spoliation risks, during active oversight investigations. 5 CFR 1320.13(a)(2)(iii). SBA’s ability to document 8(a) participant eligibility and compliance is essential to ensuring that small-business set-aside awards meet requirements and maintain program integrity. The requested emergency clearance will allow SBA to gather baseline data and support interagency coordination with OMB, Treasury and other federal agencies utilizing SBA’s 8(a) participants to inform a permanent, government-wide solution.

Immigrant Petition for the Gold Card Program

Key Information

Abstract

A petitioner may file Form I-140G to request an employment-based immigrant visa under the Gold Card program established by Executive Order 14351, The Gold Card (Sep. 19, 2025). This data collection will be used to assess an alien’s eligibility for an available employment-based immigrant visa. The gift donation confers eligibility for either the first employment-based preference (EB-1) alien of extraordinary ability under section 203(b)(1)(A) of the Immigrant and Nationality Act (INA), 8 U.S.C. § 1153(b)(1)(A); or, the second preference (EB-2) alien of exceptional ability under INA section 203(b)(2)(A), 8 U.S.C. § 1153(b)(2)(A) with a national interest waiver under INA section 203(b)(2)(B), 8 U.S.C. § 1153(b)(2)(B).Emergency Justfication:This emergency action is necessary to meet the Executive Order 14351 implementation date, within 90 days of September 19, 2025, specifically by December 18, 2025. Emergency approval of Form I-140G enables immediate collection of the standardized set of data necessary to properly assess eligibility, which also protects operational efficiency, national security, and financial integrity. Without an approved form and instructions to collect a standardized set of data, DHS and USCIS cannot intake, accept, receipt, or adjudicate an alien’s eligibility for an available employment-based first-preference or second-preference immigrant visa. In short, all the mechanisms are in place to immediately meet the current demand for the Gold Card, which could generate substantial revenue aimed at boosting commerce, and supporting American industries. Section 103(a)(3) of the INA, 8 U.S.C. § 1103(a)(3), authorizes the Secretary of Homeland Security to issue forms, instructions, and guidance necessary to carry out the authority provided in section 103(a)(1) of the INA, 8 U.S.C. § 1103(a)(1). If DHS were to adhere to the standard information collection clearance procedures, the Secretary of Homeland Security would be unable to implement the Gold Card Program within 90 days of September 19, 2025, specifically by December 18, 2025. Therefore, to bring this information collection into compliance with administration priorities and to meet the Executive Order 14351 implementation date, USCIS cannot comply with the normal clearance procedures under the PRA. Absent the collection of this critical information, public harm is reasonably likely to result. See 5 CFR 1320.13(a).

FERC-725Z, (DLO in RD23-6), Mandatory Reliability Standards: IRO Reliability Standards

Key Information

Abstract

The commission is seeking approval on IRO-010-5 that will replace IRO-010-4: The retirement date of reliability standard IRO‐010‐4 shall be retired immediately prior to the effective date of reliability standard IRO‐010‐5 in the jurisdiction in which the revised standards are becoming effective. The primary purpose of this project is to simplify administrative burdens and mitigate potential zero defects and expectations associated with the current IR0‐010‐4 standard, while ensuring that Registered Entities with operational responsibilities continue to request and receive the data necessary to support Operational Planning Analysis, Real‐time Assessments, Real‐time monitoring, and Balancing Authority analysis functions. This implementation plan reflects consideration that responsible entities will need time to develop revised data and information specifications under Reliability Standard IRO‐010‐5, including: (i) developing new protocols for submission periodicity, performance criteria, and provisions to update information as needed; (ii) developing provisions for using intermediary entities to provide data; and (iii) codifying in the data and information specification the mutually agreed upon formats, process for resolving conflicts, and security protocols to use for data and information exchange. This implementation plan also reflects consideration of the time that responsible entities will need to distribute the revised data and information specifications to the reporting entities, and that the reporting entities will need to comply with the revised data and information specifications.

NRC Form 748, National Source Tracking Transaction Report

Key Information

Abstract

In 2006, the NRC amended its regulations to implement a National Source Tracking System (NSTS) for certain sealed sources. The amendments require licensees to report certain transactions involving nationally tracked sources to the NSTS. These transactions include manufacture, transfer, receipt, disassembly, or disposal of the nationally tracked source. This information collection is mandatory and is used to populate the NSTS. National source tracking is part of a comprehensive radioactive source control program for radioactive materials of greatest concern. The NRC and Agreement States use the information provided by licensees in the NSTS to track the life cycle of the nationally tracked source from manufacture until disposal. NSTS enhances the ability of NRC and Agreement States to conduct inspections and investigations, communicate information to other government agencies, and verify legitimate ownership and use of nationally tracked sources.

Personnel Questionnaire - Alcohol and Tobacco Products

Key Information

Abstract

Provisions of chapters 51 and 52 of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC, 26 U.S.C. chapters 51 and 52) and the Federal Alcohol Administration Act (FAA Act; 27 U.S.C. 201 et seq.) require all persons who desire to engage in certain alcohol and tobacco activities to obtain a permit or registration from, or file a notice with, the Secretary of the Treasury before beginning operations. The IRC and FAA Act also provide that an applicant is not eligible for such approvals if the Secretary finds that the applicant, including company officers, directors, or principal investors, is not likely to lawfully operate or has certain criminal convictions. Under its delegated IRC and FAA Act authorities, the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB) regulations in 27 CFR chapter I authorize the collection of information from applicants so that TTB can determine if they meet the statutory and regulatory qualifications to hold alcohol and tobacco permits, registrations, or notices. To assist TTB in making such determinations, applicants use form TTB F 5000.9, Personnel Questionnaire—Alcohol and Tobacco, or its electronic Permits Online (PONL) equivalent, to provide TTB with information regarding their identity, business history, and criminal record.

Preservation of Rail Service

Key Information

Abstract

Under the Interstate Commerce Act, as amended by the ICC Termination Act of 1995, Pub. L. No. 104-88, 109 Stat. 803 (1995), and Section 8(d) of the National Trails System Act, 16 U.S.C. § 1247(d) (Trails Act), persons seeking to preserve rail service may file pleadings before the Board to acquire or subsidize a rail line for continued service, or to impose a trail use or public use condition. More specifically, when a line is proposed for abandonment, affected shippers, communities, or other interested persons may seek to preserve rail service by filing with the Board: an offer of financial assistance to subsidize or purchase a rail line for which a railroad is seeking abandonment (49 U.S.C. § 10904), including a request for the Board to set terms and conditions of the financial assistance; a request for a public use condition (§ 10905); or a trail-use request under the Trails Act. Similarly, when a line is placed on a system diagram map identifying it as an anticipated or potential candidate for abandonment, affected shippers, communities, or other interested persons may seek to preserve rail service by filing with the Board a feeder line application to purchase the identified rail line (§ 10907). (Railroad owning the rail line subject to abandonment must, in some circumstances, provide information to the applicant or offeror.) The collection also encompasses certain notifications to the agency under the Trails Act and related regulations.
