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.

Commodity Container Assistance Program (CCAP)
Key Information
Abstract
The Farm Service Agency (FSA) is announcing the availability of funding for the new Commodity Container Assistance Program (CCAP) in response to ongoing market disruptions that have created logistical challenges associated with all aspects of the availability and flow of containers to transport agricultural commodities and are preventing or delaying American-grown agricultural products from reaching their markets. The first iteration of this program will be focused on increasing intermodal container capacity through partnerships with the Port of Oakland, in Oakland, California, and the Northwest Seaport Alliance (NWSA), a marine cargo operating partnership between the Port of Seattle and the Port of Tacoma in Washington State. Both the Port of Oakland and the NWSA have been identified as key gateways for American-grown agricultural products, and each have also experienced significant challenges with the flow of containerized agricultural commodities and products. To ensure owners of American-grown agricultural products are able to ship their products from U.S. ports to global markets, CCAP will support improved use of empty shipping containers, along with the prepositioning and temporary storage of filled shipping containers near export terminals, to ensure agricultural shippers can deliver products to their customers. |

| 202209-2060-013 | NESHAP for Secondary Aluminum Production (40 CFR part 63, subpart RRR) (Renewal) | EPA/OAR | 2022-09-26 | 2025-12-31 | Extension without change of a currently approved collection
NESHAP for Secondary Aluminum Production (40 CFR part 63, subpart RRR) (Renewal)
Key Information
Abstract
The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for Secondary Aluminum Production (40 CFR Part 60, Subpart RRR) were proposed on February 11, 1999, promulgated on March 23, 2000, and amended on the following dates: December 30, 2002 (67 FR 79808); September 3, 2004 (69 FR 53980); October 3, 2005 (70 FR 57513); December 19, 2005 (70 FR 75320); September 18, 2015 (80 FR 56700); and June 13, 2016 (81 FR 38085). These regulations apply to secondary aluminum production facilities that are major sources of hazardous air pollutants (HAP) either commencing construction, or reconstruction, after the date of proposal. This includes facilities that operate aluminum scrap shredders, thermal chip dryers, scrap dryers/delacquering kilns/decoating kilns, group 1 furnaces, group 2 furnaces, sweat furnaces, dross only furnaces, rotary dross coolers, and secondary aluminum processing units (SAPUs). The SAPUs include group 1 furnaces and in-line fluxers. The regulations also apply to secondary aluminum production facilities that are area sources of HAP only with respect to emissions of dioxins/furans (D/F) from thermal chip dryers, scrap dryers/delacquering kilns/decoating kilns, group 1 furnaces, sweat furnaces, and SAPUs. New facilities include those that commenced construction, or reconstruction after the date of proposal. This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart RRR. The 2015 rule amendments included a requirement to report performance testing through the Electronic Reporting Tool (ERT); provisions allowing owners and operators to change furnace classifications; requirements to account for unmeasured emissions during compliance testing for group 1 furnaces that do not have add-on control devices; alternative compliance options for the operating and monitoring requirements for sweat furnaces; compliance provisions for hydrogen fluoride; provisions addressing emissions during periods of startup, shutdown, and malfunction (SSM); and other corrections and clarifications to the applicability, definitions, operating, monitoring and performance testing requirements. The 2016 rule amendments amended the 2015 rule to clarify requirements for initial performance tests and submittal of malfunction reports, provide an additional option for group 1 furnaces to account for unmeasured emissions during compliance testing, clarify what constitutes a change in furnace operating mode, and updates the Web addresses for the EPAs Electronic Reporting Tool (ERT) and Compliance and Emissions Data Reporting Interface (CEDRI). 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. |

| 202208-0648-007 | West Coast Region Non-Trawl Logbook Requirement (TEMP Collection) | DOC/NOAA | 2022-09-12 | 2025-12-31 | New collection (Request for a new OMB Control Number)
West Coast Region Non-Trawl Logbook Requirement (TEMP Collection)
Key Information
Abstract
The National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) West Coast Region (WCR) is submitting a temporary new information collection request (ICR) for a federally mandated logbook requirement for non-trawl groundfish fisheries that occur in the exclusive economic zone off the coasts of Washington, Oregon, and California. This temporary collection is necessary due to concurrent actions affecting OMB control number 0648-0782. This temporary ICR will later be merged with the existing ICR for the West Coast Groundfish Trawl Logbook (#0648-0782) once all actions are completed. Currently, the state of Oregon administers a fixed gear logbook, but no such reporting occurs in Washington or California fixed gear and other non-trawl fisheries, which only have partial observer coverage. A non-trawl logbook has broad applicability and utility for the management of the Pacific coast groundfish non-trawl fisheries. Data collected in a non-trawl logbook would contribute to stock assessments, inform managers about location-specific catch and discards on non-observed trips and vessels, support economic analysis, and provide effort information to quantify groundfish fishery effort to allow more precise estimation of bycatch of with Endangered Species Act (ESA) listed species, such as seabirds and humpback whales. In addition, implementation of a fixed gear logbook is a term and condition implementing Reasonable and Prudent Measure 4 of the 2017 Biological Opinion for Seabirds (FWS O1EOFWOO-2017-F-03 16). The Pacific Fishery Management Council’s (PFMC) ESA Workgroup has recommended a fixed gear logbook numerous times (June 2019; April 2017; June 2015). Finally, a fixed gear logbook would provide vital area-specific catch information to support potential future actions such as opening up areas of the non-trawl Rockfish Conservation Area (NT-RCA). |

QSA Customer Feedback Report
Key Information
Abstract
Production Approval Holders (PAH) are recognized by the Federal Aviation Administration as having the authority to produce products, articles and parts for use on U.S. civil aircraft. The customer feedback report is a voluntary survey, sent to FAA production approval holders (PAH) prior to the QSA audit conducted by the FAA at their production facility. Individual PAH facilities are subject to the QSA audit every 24, 36, or 48 months depending on the complexity and criticality of the aircraft product or article that they manufacture. The customer feedback survey is voluntarily reported to FAA on occasion, which is predicated on the revolving due date of that audit. The survey seeks to obtain information that is voluntarily disclosed by the PAH and used by the FAA to invoke continuous improvement of the QSA process. The survey offers the PAH the opportunity to divulge issues or concerns regarding the preparation, timeliness, communication, coordination and professionalism regarding the completed QSA. The information provides transparency to the FAA managing offices with regard to the effectiveness of the conduct of the audit and the collaborative exchange of information between industry and government regulatory policy. The feedback information is generally not technical in nature, but identifies potential gaps in training and opportunities to adjust the QSA administrative protocols to adopt changes as the PAH certificate management process and automation tools to support that process evolve. Most PAHs are subject to a QSA every two to four years depending on the complexity of their product. The feedback information submitted by the PAH on the 8100-7 form at the conclusion of the QSA is a voluntary survey. It is collected and reviewed by FAA offices including the local field offices, manufacturing inspection offices and the surveillance and oversight policy section of AIR-600 in order to improve the administration and conduct of the QSA at the local and national levels. The FAA has typically used the feedback to clarify the information provided in the QSA briefing presentations and to improve the overall audit presentation and experience. Improvements to FAA Order 8120.23, Certificate Management of Production Approval Holders, have been and will continue to be incorporated as a result of the on-going collection of data. |

National Geological and Geophysical Data Preservation Program (NGGDPP)
Key Information
Abstract
The USGS NGGDPP offers financial support to State geological agencies to create metadata that will describe sample sites for State geological surveys that have related site-specific data resources. The purpose of these data collections are to preserve and provide access to samples (and any related data) that have been extracted from the earth to improve the breadth of information that can be used to inform science and decision-making now and in the future. The USGS envisions a national network of cooperating geoscience materials and data repositories that are operated independently yet guided by common standards, procedures, and protocols for metadata. The holdings of all collections will be widely accessible through a common and mirrored Internet-based catalog, the National Digital Catalog. The holdings of the individual repositories will complement each other to preserve the geoscience assets of the Nation and serve as a comprehensive source of geoscience data and materials to serve national needs today and in the future. |

Certification and Compliance Requirements for Nonroad Spark-ignition Engines (Renewal)
Key Information
Abstract
This information collection is requested under the authority of Title II of the Clean Air Act (42 U.S.C. 7521 et seq.) Under this Title, EPA is charged with issuing certificates of conformity for those engines which comply with applicable emission standards. Such a certificate must be issued before engines may be legally introduced into commerce. To apply for a certificate of conformity, manufacturers are required to submit descriptions of their planned production line, including detailed descriptions of the emission control system, and test data. This information is organized by engine family groups expected to have similar emission characteristics. The emission values achieved during certification testing may also be used in the Averaging, Banking, and Trading (ABT) Program. The program allows manufacturers to bank credits for engine families that emit below the standard and use the credits for families that emit above the standard. They may also trade banked credits with other manufacturers. Participation in the ABT program is voluntary. Different categories of spark-ignition engines may also be required to comply with production-line testing (PLT) and in-use testing. There are also recordkeeping and labeling requirements. This information is collected electronically by the Gasoline Engine Compliance Center (GECC), Compliance Division, Office of Transportation and Air Quality (OTAQ), Office of Air and Radiation of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. GECC uses this information to ensure that manufacturers comply with applicable regulations and the Clean Air Act (CAA). It may also be used by the Office of Enforcement and Compliance Assurance (OECA) and the Department of Justice for enforcement purposes. Non- CBI may be disclosed on OTAQ's Web site or upon request under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) to trade associations, environmental groups, and the public. Any information submitted for which a claim of confidentiality is made is safeguarded according to EPA regulations at 40 CFR 2.201 et seq. |
