What is an ICR?

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.

When are they submitted?

Federal agencies are required to submit an ICR whenever they create, renew, 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.

Where to find an ICR?

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.

TD 9764, Section 6708 Failure to Maintain List of Advisees with Respect to Reportable Transactions

Key Information

Abstract

Internal Revenue Code (IRC) section 6112 requires material advisors to maintain lists of advisees and other information with respect to reportable transactions and to make that information available to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) upon written request. IRC section 6708 imposes a penalty upon material advisors for failing to make a list required by IRC section 6112 available to the IRS within 20 business days after the date of the written request. Treasury Decision (TD) 9764 contains final regulations relating to the penalty under IRC section 6708. The collection of information is in Treasury Regulations section 301.6708–1(c)(3)(ii), which requires a person requesting an extension of the 20-business-day period to provide the IRS, in writing, with specific information regarding the list and the circumstances that would warrant additional time.

Emission Guidelines for Commercial and Industrial Solid Waste Incineration (CISWI) Units (40 CFR part 60, subpart DDDD) (Final Rule)

Key Information

Abstract

Previously, the EPA issued New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) (40 CFR Part 60, Subpart CCCC) and Emission Guidelines (40 CFR Part 60, Subpart DDDD) for Commercial and Industrial Solid Waste Incineration (CISWI) Units as promulgated on December 1, 2000 (65 FR 75338) and March 21, 2011 (76 FR 15769), and subsequently amended on: February 7, 2013 (78 FR 9195); June 23, 2016 (81 FR 41001); April 16, 2019 (84 FR 15846); and Oct. 7, 2020 (85 FR 63406) . The Emission Guidelines apply to any air quality program in either a state or a United States protectorate with one or more existing CISWI units. The guidelines can be thought of as model regulations that States use in developing State plans to implement the Emission Guidelines. If a state does not develop, adopt, and submit an approvable state plan, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) develops a Federal plan to implement the Emission Guidelines. The EPA previously promulgated a Federal Plan for CISWI units subject to the December 1, 2000 final rule on October 3, 2003 (68 FR 57518) under 40 CFR Part 62, Subpart III. On January 11, 2017, the EPA proposed amendments to the Federal plan requirements at 40 CFR Part 62, Subpart III to implement the regulations at 40 CFR Part 60, Subpart DDDD adopted on February 7, 2013, and as amended on June 23, 2016, and April 16, 2019. The EPA is subsequently finalizing the revised Federal Plan under new subpart 40 CFR Part 62, Subpart IIIa. Following the effective date of the final rule, the requirements of 40 CFR Part 62, Subpart III will no longer be in effect and all existing units subject to the Federal Plan must meet the requirements of 40 CFR Part 62, Subpart IIIa. These regulations will apply to existing CISWI units (units that commenced construction on or before June 4, 2010, or commenced modification or reconstruction after June 4, 2010 but no later than August 7, 2013) that are not regulated by an EPA approved and currently effective State or Tribal plan, or that are located in any state whose approved State or Tribal plan is only approved in part. Since EPA is finalizing the updated Federal plan at 40 CFR Part 62, Subpart IIIa, following the effective date of the final rule, all respondents previously subject to Subpart DDDD are now subject to either a State plan implementing 40 CFR Part 60, Subpart DDDD or are subject to the Federal plan under 40 CFR Part 62, Subpart IIIa, or if they have modified since August 7, 2013, they are subject to the NSPS at 40 CFR Part 60, Subpart CCCC. This information is thus being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR Part 60, Subpart DDDD and 40 CFR Part 62, Subpart IIIa. The Federal Plan implements the Emissions Guidelines at 40 CFR Part 60, Subpart DDDD. In general, all Emissions Guidelines 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 Emission Guidelines.

NESHAP for Ferroalloys Production: Ferromanganese and Silicomanganese (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart XXX) (Renewal)

Key Information

Abstract

The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for Ferroalloys Production: Ferromanganese and Silicomanganese (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart XXX) were promulgated on May 20, 1999; and amended on: March 22, 2001; June 23, 2003; April 20, 2006; June 30, 2015 (80 FR 37366); January 18, 2017 (82 FR 5408), and November 19, 2020 (85 FR 73902). These regulations apply to both new and existing ferroalloy production facilities that manufacture ferromanganese and silicomanganese, and that are either major sources of hazardous air pollutant (HAP) emissions or are co-located at major sources of HAPs. The following affected facilities at ferroalloy production plants are subject to this NESHAP rule: electric arc furnaces; casting operations; metal oxygen refining (MOR) processes; crushing and screening operations; and outdoor fugitive dust sources. New facilities include those that commenced construction or reconstruction after the date of proposal. The burden in this ICR reflects the burden associated with the recordkeeping and reporting requirements of the regulation for new and existing sources included in the June 30, 2015 Risk and Technology Review (RTR) final rule amendments and January 18, 2017 reconsideration notice. The burden associated with the 2015 final rule amendments and reconsideration notice is accounted for in EPA ICR No. 2448.02 (OMB Control No. 2060-0676). The 2020 amendment implemented the plain language reading of the “major source” and “area source” definitions of section 112 of the Clean Air Act (CAA) and provide that a major source can be reclassified to area source status at any time upon reducing its potential to emit (PTE) hazardous air pollutants (HAP) to below the major source thresholds and required this notification be submitted electronically. This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart XXX.  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.

NSPS for Synthetic Fiber Production Facilities (40 CFR Part 60, Subpart HHH) (Renewal)

Key Information

Abstract

The New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) for Synthetic Fiber Production Facilities (40 CFR Part 60, Subpart HHH) were proposed on November 23, 1982, promulgated on April 5, 1984, and amended on October 17, 2000. These regulations apply to both existing and new synthetic fiber production plants with a solvent-spun, synthetic fiber process that produce more than 500 megagrams (Mgs) of fiber per year that commenced construction or reconstruction after the date of proposal. The provisions of this subpart do not apply to any facility that uses the reaction spinning process to produce spandex fiber, or the viscose process to produce rayon fiber, or to facilities that commence modification, but not reconstruction, after the date of proposal. This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR Part 60, Subpart HHH. In general, all NSPS 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 NSPS.

Data Security Executive Order

Key Information

Abstract

On February 28, 2024, the President issued Executive Order 14117 (Preventing Access to Americans’ Bulk Sensitive Personal Data and United States Government-Related Data by Countries of Concern) (the Order) pursuant to his authority under the Constitution and laws of the United States, including the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.) (IEEPA), the National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1601 et seq.) (NEA), and 301 of title 3, United States Code). The Order directs the Attorney General to issue regulations that prohibit or otherwise restrict United States persons from engaging in any acquisition, holding, use, transfer, transportation, or exportation of, or dealing in, any property in which a foreign country or national thereof has any interest (transaction), where the transaction: involves bulk U.S. sensitive personal data (SPD) or U.S. Government related data, as defined by final rules implementing the Order; falls within a class of transactions that has been determined by the Attorney General to pose an unacceptable risk to the national security of the United States because it may enable access by countries of concern or covered persons to Americans’ bulk SPD or U.S. government-related data; and meets other criteria specified by the Order. On March 5, 2025, the Department of Justice (Department or DOJ), through the National Security Division, issued an Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (ANPRM) setting forth contemplated regulations to implement the Order and seeking public comment.

Medicare Advantage Model of Care Submission Requirements (CMS-10565)

Key Information

Abstract

Medicare Advantage (MA) Special Needs Plans (SNPs) are required to submit Models of Care (MOCs) as a component of the MA application process. The Affordable Care Act (ACA) requires that all SNPs be approved by the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA). This approval is based on NCQA’s evaluation of SNPs using MOC scoring guidelines developed by CMS and NCQA for the Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS). The MOC elements cover the following areas: MOC 1- Description of the SNP Population; MOC 2 - Care Coordination; MOC 3 - Provider Network; and MOC 4 - Quality Measurement & Performance Improvement. SNPs submit a MOC at time of their initial application and based on their scores, SNPs receive an approval for a period of 1, 2 or 3 years. After the approval period expires, SNPs are required to submit an updated MOC for review for their renewal process. CMS is also developing a MOC off-cycle revision process so that SNPs can revise the MOC to modify its processes and strategies for providing care during their MOC approval period. CMS will require that SNPs submit summaries of their MOC revisions to CMS for NCQA evaluation when a SNP makes significant changes to its MOC during the approval period. NCQA will review the summary of changes to verify that the revisions are consistent with the acceptable, high quality standards as included in the original approved MOC. CMS will begin collecting MOCs mid-January 2016 to coincide with the MA Application collection.

Generic Clearance for NOAA Social, Behavioral, and Economic Science Studies for Weather, Water, and Climate

Key Information

Abstract

This revision is to request that OMB allow up to 5 IC submissions at a time for this generic request. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) products and services “support economic vitality and affect more than one-third of America’s gross domestic product.” The National Weather Service (NWS) is a critical component of this service and operates under the mission to “provide weather, water and climate data, forecasts, warnings, and impact-based decision support services for the protection of life and property and enhancement of the national economy.” Leveraging and integrating Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (SBES) methodologies and knowledge is crucial to meeting our mission. Similarly, the Oceanic and Atmospheric Research (OAR) NOAA line office conducts SBES research and development directly relevant to and in support of the NWS mission. If we are to effectively support public and partner decision making, build actionable tools and information, and evaluate our performance, then it’s imperative that the NWS/OAR collect key SBES data and fully engage with our audiences. Additionally, the NWS/OAR has articulated a priority to enhance services for historically underinvested and underserved communities and improve service equity across the board. These communities typically experience higher rates of poverty, homelessness, disabilities, and language barriers, which increase their vulnerability to hazard impacts. The generic clearance is an important planning and engagement tool for NWS/OAR. The procedures expected to be used include but are not limited to social network analysis, open, semi-structured and structured interviews, focus groups, surveys, and participant observation.

NSPS for the Phosphate Fertilizer Industry (40 CFR Part 60, Subparts T, U, V, W, and X) (Renewal)

Key Information

Abstract

The New Source Performance Standards (NSPS), for Phosphate Fertilizer Industry (40 CFR Part 60, Subparts T, U, V, W, and X) were proposed on October 22, 1974, promulgated on August 6, 1975, and amended on August 19, 2015 . These regulations apply to both existing facilities and new facilities that engage in the manufacture of phosphate fertilizers (wet-process phosphoric acid plants, super-phosphoric acid plants, diammonium phosphate plants, and triple superphosphate plants), and have a design capacity of more than 15 tons of equivalent phosphorous pentoxide (P2O5) feed per calendar day. These standards also apply to new and existing facilities that store granular triple superphosphate. These same standards establish fluoride emission limitations as a measure of phosphorus-bearing feed material at affected facilities. The affected facilities may include a combination of reactors, filters, evaporators, hot wells, acid sumps, cooling tanks, granulators, dryers, coolers, screens, mills, mixers, curing belts (dens), coolers, and facilities which store run-of-pile triple superphosphate, depending on the type of plant. New facilities include those that commenced construction, modification or reconstruction after the date of proposal. This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR Part 60, Subpart T, U, V, W, and X. In general, all NSPS 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 NSPS.

United States Estate (and Generation-Skipping Transfer) Tax Return

Key Information

Abstract

The federal estate tax is a tax on the transfer of property at death. It is applied to estates for which at-death gross assets ("gross estate") plus adjusted taxable gifts exceed the filing threshold. Chapter 11 of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) provides the rules and requirements for estate taxes. IRC section 2001 imposes a tax on the transfer of the taxable estate of every decedent who was a citizen or resident of the United States. Chapter 13 of the IRC provides rules and requirements for certain generation-skipping transfers (GST). IRC section 2601 imposes a tax on a GST. Form 706 and related forms are used to report and compute both taxes. IRC section 2603(a)(2) provides that the GST tax imposed on a direct skip from a trust must be paid by the trustee (not the estate). This information collection request (ICR) covers the actual reporting burden associated with preparing and submitting the prescribed return forms, by executors required to file Form 706 and any of its affiliated forms.

EEO Complaint Forms

Key Information

Abstract

Treasury employees, former employees, and applicants for employment may contact the Department’s EEO Offices if they believe they have been subjected to discrimination based on race, color, sex (includes sexual harassment, sexual orientation and gender identity), national origin, religion, disability, age (40 or over), parental status, protected genetic information, or retaliation. A Treasury staff member responsible for obtaining information regarding the claim(s) of discrimination will record on a Report of Counseling (Intake) Form the aggrieved party’s (“the aggrieved”) personal information, i.e., name, address, telephone numbers, etc., as well as the bases and issues raised by the aggrieved. Thereafter, an EEO Counselor will be assigned, who will review the information on the Report of Counseling (Intake) Form and contact the aggrieved to schedule an initial interview. This interview may include, but is not limited to: verifying the information on the Intake Form, clearly defining the scope of the issues, reviewing the rights and responsibilities of the aggrieved and the agency during the EEO complaint process including the right to representation and anonymity, the applicable time frames, the option to extend the counseling process, the right to choose between Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) and EEO Counseling, and the overall stages of the complaint process.

Identification of Foreign-Registered Civil Unmanned Aircraft Operating in the United States

Key Information

Abstract

Operators of foreign-registered civil unmanned aircraft, as needed (prior to operating in the airspace of the United States), are required to submit information to this collection. The FAA uses information provided by operators of foreign-registered civil unmanned aircraft operating in the airspace of the United States to identify those operators and the unmanned aircraft that they are operating. The FAA collects information through the online Notice of Identification service that is part of the FAADroneZone web site. The filing of the notice of identification and the issuance of a confirmation of identification does not have the effect of U.S. aircraft registration.

NSPS for Surface Coating of Plastic Parts for Business Machines (40 CFR part 60, subpart TTT) (Final Rule)

Key Information

Abstract

In this ICR, the EPA estimates additional one-time respondent burden of 2 labor hours in the first year following promulgation of the subject amendments to provide for becoming familiar with the amendments to NSPS subpart TTT and becoming familiar with the CDX and CEDRI systems associated with electronic submission of reports. These amendments will not impact the burden on respondents in later years because they do not impose additional reporting or recordkeeping requirements. The total estimated respondent burden as currently identified in the OMB Inventory of Approved Burdens is based on 10 respondents (a larger number than the three respondents counted in this ICR). The downward adjustment in the number of respondents for this ICR, based on the EPAs most recent information, is reflected in Attachment 1 to this ICR Supporting Statement.
