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, or modify 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.

Stress Testing Recordkeeping and Reporting
Key Information
Authorizing Statutes
132 Stat. 1296 Abstract
The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) has issued a rule that revises the FDIC’s requirements for stress testing by FDIC-supervised institutions, consistent with changes made by Section 401 of the Economic Growth, Regulatory Relief, and Consumer Protection Act (EGRRCPA). Specifically, the rule amends the FDIC’s existing stress testing regulations at 12 CFR Part 325 to change the minimum threshold for applicability from $10 billion to $250 billion, revises the frequency of required stress tests by FDIC-supervised institutions, and reduces the number of required stress testing scenarios from three to two. The rule also makes certain conforming and technical changes that were previously included in an April 2019 notice of proposed rulemaking that was superseded, in part, by the enactment of EGRRCPA. On May 17, 2012, the OCC, along with the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) and the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve (FRB), published guidance on the use of stress testing as a means to better understand the range of a banking organization’s potential risk exposures. The guidance provides an overview of how a banking organization should structure its stress testing activities to ensure they fit into the banking organization’s overall risk management program. The purpose of the guidance is to outline broad principles for a satisfactory stress testing framework and describe the manner in which stress testing should be used, that is as an integral component of risk management applicable at various levels of aggregation within a banking organization as well as a tool for capital and liquidity planning. While the guidance is not intended to provide detailed instructions for conducting stress testing for any particular risk or business area, it does include descriptions of several types of stress testing activities and how they may be most appropriately used by banking organizations. The guidance also does not explicitly address the stress testing requirements imposed upon certain companies by section 165(i) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the Dodd-Frank Act). |

Bus Testing Program
Key Information
Authorizing Statutes
Abstract
This information collection (IC) request is for a three-year extension without change of a currently approved information collection under OMB control number 2132-0550 “Bus Testing Program.” There has been no change in the respondent universe or burden hours; nor have there been any programmatic or statutory changes since OMB granted the last PRA approval in 2019. The response to the collection is required to obtain or retain a benefit, as no federal funds may be obligated or expended for the acquisition of a new transit bus vehicle unless the bus has met the requirements of FTA's Bus Testing Program. The entities responding to this information collection are transit bus manufactures. The respondents submit bus testing requests to FTA on occasion as new bus models are introduced or there are major changes to an existing bus model previously tested. The information is submitted online via FTA’s bus testing portal. The information submitted to the Altoona Bus Testing facility and FTA’s Bus Testing Manager includes; the bus model, manufacturer information, vehicle details, evidence of manufacturer/vehicle compliance with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards, overview of major changes to the vehicle (if applicable), etc. Although there has been no changes to the program, the updated information collection does reflect the increase in cost to the respondents and the federal government as a result of current labor rates for both groups. |

Abstract
The NTSB created the following form: Request for a Medical Exception to the COVID-19 Vaccination Requirement. The agency will use this form to determine whether the employee provided sufficient information to justify the request. Because the OMB number assigned to this form was obtained through emergency clearance, the OMB number is only valid for six months and will expire on May 31, 2022. In anticipation of future requests from its employees, the NTSB is specifically seeking an extension of this currently-approved collection. |

Bridge Safety Standards
Key Information
Abstract
The Fixing America’s Surface Transportation Act (FAST Act) (Pub. L. 114–94, Dec. 4, 2015), Section 11405, “Bridge Inspection Reports,” provides a means for a State or a political subdivision of a State to obtain a public version of a bridge inspection report generated by a railroad for a bridge located within its respective jurisdiction. FRA developed a form titled “Bridge Inspection Report Public Version Request Form” (FRA F 6180.167) to facilitate such requests by States and their political subdivisions. Additionally, the collection of information set forth under 49 CFR part 237 normalized and established Federal requirements for railroad bridges. In particular, the collection of information is used by FRA to confirm that railroads/track owners adopt and implement bridge management programs to properly inspect, maintain, modify, and repair all bridges that carry trains for which they are responsible. Further, the collection of information set forth under 49 CFR 214.105(c) establishes standards and practices for safety net systems. The burden associated with § 214.105(c), formerly covered under OMB Control No. 2130-0535, is now combined with the burden under OMB Control No. 2130-0586. |

Special Notice For Repairs
Key Information
Abstract
Under 49 CFR part 216, FRA and State inspectors may issue a Special Notice for Repairs to notify a railroad in writing of an unsafe condition involving a locomotive, car, or track. The railroad must notify FRA in writing when the equipment is returned to service or the track is restored to a condition permitting operations at speeds authorized for a higher class, specifying the repairs completed. FRA and State inspectors use this information to remove from service freight cars, passenger cars, and locomotives until they can be restored to a serviceable condition. They also use this information to reduce the maximum authorized speed on a section of track until repairs can be made. |

DCIA Aging and Compliance Data Requirements for Guaranty Agencies
Key Information
Abstract
The Department of Education (the Department) is requesting an extension of the currently approved Guaranty Agencies (GA) reporting requirements for Office of Management and Budget (OMB) approval. The reporting requirements include minor edits together with updated GA and FSA contacts. The Department is required to report to the U.S. Department of the Treasury (Treasury) the status and condition of its non-tax debt portfolio in accordance with the requirements of the Debt Collection Improvement Act of 1996 (DCIA) and the Digital Accountability and Transparency Act of 2014 (DATA Act). Receivable information is reported to Treasury via the Treasury Report on Receivables and Debt Collection Activities (previously called the TROR). The Department is unable to prepare an accurate and compliant Treasury Report based on the data it currently receives from its GAs. The continuing guidance requires the GAs to age debt according to DCIA; report the eligibility of DCIA-aged debt for referral to the Treasury Offset Program (TOP); and report compliance with Form 1099-C reporting. The updated document is titled DCIA Aging and Compliance Data Requirements for Guaranty Agencies (the Requirements). The Department plans to issue the Requirements to the GAs in Fiscal Year 2023. The data requirements for GA’s are not changing. The updated document includes minor edits together with updated GA and FSA contacts. |
