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.

Confidential Business Information Claims under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) (Non-Substantive Change)

Key Information

Abstract

EPA is finalizing new and amended requirements concerning the assertion and maintenance of claims of business confidentiality (also known as Confidential Business Information or CBI) under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA), 15 U.S.C. 2601, et seq. The Frank R. Lautenberg Chemical Safety for the 21st Century Act, Pub. L. 114182 referred to in this Notice as Lautenberg), made significant amendments to TSCA including new provisions governing the assertion of CBI claims and requirements concerning Agency review and treatment of confidentiality claims. This final rule specifies procedures for submitting and supporting CBI claims in TSCA submissions, including substantiation requirements applicable at the time of submission, exemptions from the requirement to substantiate, electronic reporting enhancements (which include new electronic reporting requirements, as well as integration of TSCA requirements to provide certain certification statements, substantiation, and generic names when making confidentiality claims), and maintenance or withdrawal of confidentiality claims. The final rule also specifies Agency procedures for reviewing and communicating with TSCA submitters about confidentiality claims, including requirements for submitters to maintain contact information, procedures EPA will use to provide notices to submitters concerning their claims, and the manner in which EPA will notify submitters concerning the impending expiration of certain claims. The final rule includes new provisions, as well as amending and reorganizing existing provisions concerning assertion of confidentiality claims in order to conform to new requirements in Lautenberg. Most procedural requirements for asserting and maintaining a confidentiality claim are organized into a new part of the CFR, which would apply to any TSCA submission, except as modified by or elaborated on elsewhere in parts 704, 707, 716, 717, 720, 721, 723, 725, 770, or 790. The following submissions under TSCA will now have new or amended procedures for substantiated claims of confidentiality: TSCA Section 8(a); 40 CFR 704 TSCA Section 12(b) Notification of Export; 40 CFR 707.75(d) TSCA Section 8(d) Health and Safety Studies; 40 CFR 716.55(a) and (c) TSCA Section 8(c) Allegations of Adverse Effects; 40 CFR 717.19 TSCA Section 5 Premanufacture Notices (PMNs); 40 CFR 720.85 and 720.90 and 720 Subpart F TSCA Section 5 40 CFR 721 Significant New Use Rules (SNURs) TSCA Section 5 Polymer Exemption; 40 CFR 723.250(f); and Low Volume Exemptions 40 CFR 723.50 TSCA Section 5 microorganisms; 40 CFR 725 Subpart C TSCA Title VI Formaldehyde Emissions Standards for Composite Wood; 40 CFR 770 TSCA Section 4 Test Orders; 40 CFR 790

Austism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) Research Portfolio Analysis, (NIMH)

Key Information

Abstract

This is a revision of a currently approved request where the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) Office of National Autism Coordination (ONAC), on behalf of the Interagency Autism Coordinating Committee (IACC), plans to continue conducting comprehensive portfolio analyses of major autism spectrum disorder (ASD) research funders. The purpose of the annual autism research portfolio analysis is to collect research funding data from U.S. and international ASD research funders, to assist the IACC in fulfilling the requirements of the Autism Collaboration, Accountability, Research, Education and Support (CARES) Act of 2024, and to inform stakeholders of the funding landscape and current directions for ASD research. These analyses will continue to examine the extent to which current funding and research topics align with the IACC Strategic Plan for Autism Research, Services, and Policy. The findings will also help to guide future funding priorities by outlining current gaps and opportunities in ASD research as well as serving to highlight research activities and progress.

Key Information

Abstract

On October 24, 2018, the Commission released a Report and Order, FCC 18-149 in GN Docket No. 17-158, adopting limited changes to the rules governing Priority Access Licenses (PALs) in the 3550-3700 MHz (3.5 GHz) band, including larger license areas, longer license terms, renewability, and performance requirements. The Commission anticipated that the targeted changes made in its 2018 Report and Order will spur additional investment and broader deployment in the band, promote robust and efficient spectrum use, and help ensure the rapid deployment of advanced wireless technologies—including 5G—in the United States. The rule changes and information requirements contained in the Commission’s previous 3.5 GHz band orders—the 2015 Report and Order, FCC 15-47, and 2016 Order on Reconsideration and Second Report and Order, FCC 16-55, both in GN Docket No. 12-354—are also approved under this Office of Management and Budget (OMB) control number (3060-1211) and have not changed since OMB last approved them. Please see the previous OMB approvals for this collection to identify what else is covered by this collection. This supporting statement discusses only the performance requirements from the 2018 Report and Order. The Commission seeks approval from OMB for the information collection requirements contained in the 2018 Report and Order, FCC 18-149, stemming from the changes made to section 96.25(b) of it rules. The Commission revised section 96.25(b) to adopt performance requirements for Priority Access Licensees. Specifically, under the revised rule, Priority Access Licensees must provide substantial service in their license area by the end of the initial license term, i.e., at the end of 10 years. “Substantial service” is defined as service which is sound, favorable, and substantially above the level of mediocre service which might minimally warrant renewal. Failure by any licensee to meet this requirement will result in forfeiture of the license without further Commission action, and the licensee will be ineligible to regain it. Licensees shall demonstrate compliance with the performance requirement by filing a construction notification with the Commission in accordance with section 1.946(d) of the Commission’s rules. The licensee must certify whether it has met the performance requirement, and file supporting documentation, including description and demonstration of the bona fide service provided, electronic maps accurately depicting the boundaries of the license area and where in the license area the licensee provides service that meets the performance requirement, supporting technical documentation, any population-related assumptions or data used in determining the population covered by a service to the extent any were relied upon, and any other information the Wireless Telecommunications Bureau may prescribe by public notice. A licensee’s showing of substantial service may not rely on service coverage outside of the PAL Protection Areas of registered Citizens Broadband Radio Service Devices (CBSDs) or on deployments that are not reflected in Spectrum Access System (SAS) records of CBSD registrations.

[NCHHSTP] mChoice: Improving PrEP Uptake and Adherence among Minority MSM through Tailored Provider Training and Adherence Assistance in Two High Priority Settings

Key Information

Abstract

The purpose of the mChoice project is to rigorously evaluate the use of provider and patient education and support tools in clinical settings to increase PrEP screening, counseling, initiation, adherence, and persistence by MSM. This research project will involve interaction with human participants and intends to collect new individually identifiable data and biospecimens from the participants. This project is considered human subjects research and will be covered by the Paperwork Reduction Act. The mChoice intervention will target healthcare providers and PrEP users. The study will provide training to healthcare providers to improve knowledge of PrEP clinical guidelines and enhance provider communications with their patients. PrEP users will receive CleverCap, an electronic medication monitoring device that is linked to the CleverCap mobile phone application that provides medication dispensing information and reminders to support medication adherence, as well as health information and appointment reminders. In this request, we are proposing adding a new HIV prevention PrEP injectable medication, lenacapavir (also referred to as LEN and Yeztugo), to data collection instruments (elaborating on questions and response options to include lenacapavir). Including lenacapavir as a PrEP option in participant assessments and clinic assessments will help us more accurately capture PrEP uptake and usage. There is a total increase of 2 burden hours

NESHAP for Taconite Iron Ore Processing (40 CFR part 63 subpart RRRRR) (Proposed Rule)

Key Information

Abstract

he National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for Taconite Iron Ore Processing was proposed on December 18, 2002 and promulgated on October 30, 2003. The NESHAP is codified at 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart RRRRR. The regulations apply to existing facilities and new facilities that either emit or has the potential to emit any single hazardous air pollutant (HAP) at a rate of 9.07 megagrams (10 tons) or more per year or any combination of HAP at a rate of 22.68 megagrams (25 tons) or more per year from all emission sources at the plant site. Affected sources include each new or existing ore crushing and handling operation, ore dryer, indurating furnace, and finished pellet handling operation. The pollutants regulated include HAP metals, using particulate matter (PM) as a surrogate. New facilities include those that commenced construction or reconstruction after the date of the original proposal (December 18, 2002). The NESHAP was last amended in 2020 as part of the residual risk and technology review of the regulation (85 FR 45476, July 28, 2020). The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to add emission standards for mercury, hydrogen chloride and hydrogen fluoride for taconite iron ore indurating furnaces and to require additional notifications and reports to help ensure compliance with the proposed standards. This ICR package summaries the estimated burden and costs for the proposed amendments In general, all NESHAP require initial notifications, performance tests, and periodic reports by the owners/operators of the affected facilities. Owners/operators are also required to maintain records of the occurrence and duration of any failures to meet applicable standards, or any period during which the monitoring system is inoperative. In addition to the notifications, a semiannual report is also required. These notifications, reports, and records are essential in determining compliance, and are required of all sources subject to NESHAP. Any owner or operator subject to the provisions of this part shall maintain a file of these measurements and retain the file for at least 5 years following the date of such measurements, maintenance reports, and records. All reports are sent to the delegated state or local authority. In the event there is no such delegated authority, the reports are sent directly to the United States EPA regional office.

ACF Performance Progress Report - Program Indicators

Key Information

Abstract

The Office of Grants Management (OGM), in the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) is proposing a three year extension for the continued collection of program performance data for ACF’s discretionary grant recipients. In 2016, OGM developed the ACF-OGM-SF-PPR-B to collect this data based on the basic template of the OMB-approved reporting format of the Program Performance Report. The form was renewed in 2019 and 2023 with no changes. The form was then revised in 2025 with minor changes to improve the function of the form and utility to the federal government. OGM now seeks to renew the ACF-OGM-SF-PPR-B for continued use by ACF with revisions to align with the requirements in 2 CFR 200.329 and reduce recipient burden by reducing the number of questions on the form. The requirement for recipients to report on performance is OMB grants policy. Specific citations are contained in 2 CFR 200 Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards.

High Frequency Surveys Program Household Trends and Outlook Pulse Survey (March and May 2026)

Key Information

Abstract

The High-Frequency Surveys Program was established as a natural progression from the creation of the Household Pulse Survey. The Census Bureau developed the Household Pulse Survey to produce near real-time data in a time of urgent and acute need to inform federal and state action in response to the Covid-19 pandemic. Changes in the measures over time provided insight into individuals’ experiences on social and economic dimensions during the period of the pandemic. It has evolved to include content on other emergent social and economic issues facing households and is designed to supplement the federal statistical system’s traditional benchmark data products with a new data source that provides relevant and timely information based on a high-quality sample frame, data integration, and cooperative expertise. In January 2025, the HPS and CHP will be relaunched as the Household Trends and Outlook Pulse Survey (HTOPS). The HTOPS will continue the strong tradition of the HPS by rapidly providing insight into national events that have social and economic impacts on U.S. households. It will complement more traditional federal surveys by producing data much closer to real time as the events develop and with the new longitudinal design, have the ability to track changes over time. Along with HPS content, the survey will enable the Census Bureau to address research and content development needs for its census and survey programs. The HTOPS will be one more tool among the Census Bureau's data collection efforts to provide the nation with quality, up-to-date information that informs our future.

National Compensation Survey

Key Information

Abstract

Under the National Compensation Survey (NCS), the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) currently uses the Employment Cost Index (ECI) and Occupational Employment Statistics (OEWS) to provide grade and local wage data required by the President's Pay Agent to comply with the requirements of the Federal Employees Pay Comparability Act of 1990 (FEPCA). The President's Pay Agent uses these data to recommend pay increases for Federal General Schedule workers; NCS data produces the Employment Cost Index which is designated a Principal Federal Economic Indicator under OMB Statistical Policy Directive No. 3. NCS data is used to produce the ECI, the Employer Cost for Employee Compensation (ECEC) and data for the President's Pay Agent.

Key Information

Abstract

Under Section 614 of the Communications Act and the implementing rules adopted by the Commission, commercial TV broadcast stations are entitled to assert mandatory carriage rights on cable systems located within the station’s television market. Under Section 325(b) of the Communications Act, commercial TV broadcast stations are entitled to negotiate with local cable systems for carriage of their signal pursuant to retransmission consent agreements in lieu of asserting must carry rights. This system is therefore referred to as “Must-Carry and Retransmission Consent.” Under Section 615 of the Communications Act, noncommercial educational (NCE) stations are also entitled to assert mandatory carriage rights on cable systems located within the station’s market; however, noncommercial TV broadcast stations are not entitled to retransmission consent.
