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.

Revisions and Confidentiality Determinations for Data Elements for the Greenhouse Gas Reporting Rule (Final Rule)

Key Information

Abstract

In response to the FY2008 Consolidated Appropriations Act (H.R. 2764; Public Law 110-161) and under authority of the Clean Air Act (CAA), EPA finalized a greenhouse gas reporting rule in October of 2009 (henceforth referred to as the Greenhouse Gas Reporting Program or GHGRP) (74 FR 56260; October 30, 2009). The rule, which became effective on December 29, 2009, requires reporting of greenhouse gases (GHGs) from certain large facilities and suppliers. The GHGRP requires that sources emitting GHGs, supplying certain products that contain GHGs, or injecting carbon dioxide (CO2) underground in quantities above certain threshold levels of CO2 equivalent (CO2e) monitor and report GHG data and other relevant information. Subsequent rules have promulgated requirements for additional facilities, and suppliers; provided clarification and corrections to existing requirements; and finalized confidentiality business information (CBI) determinations, amended recordkeeping requirements, and implemented an alternative verification approach. This supporting statement addresses information collection activities that would be imposed by the final rule Revisions and Confidentiality Determinations for Data Elements Under the Greenhouse Gas Reporting Rule. The final revisions consolidate amendments from the 2022 Data Quality Improvements Proposal and the 2023 Supplemental Proposal to amend specific provisions in the Greenhouse Gas Reporting Rule for the purposes of enhancing the quality of the data collected and clarifying elements of the rule. Specifically, the final revisions will more accurately reflect industry emissions through collection of additional data to understand new source categories or new emission sources for specific sectors, improving emissions calculation methodologies, and improving the accuracy of reported emissions by improving verification and eliminating data gaps. These final revisions are expected to result in an increase in respondent burden. See Section 4(b) and Table 1 of Attachment 1 for a complete list of final revisions to the reporting requirements. The EPA previously submitted ICRs on the proposed rules under OMB 2060-0629, ICR No. 2300.19 and OMB 2060-0748, ICR No. 2773.01. The EPA received a number of comments on the proposed revisions in both the 2022 Data Quality Improvements Proposal and the 2023 Supplemental Proposal. Following consideration of comments, the EPA has, in some cases, revised the final rule requirements, and in other cases, has decided to not take final action on proposed revisions. This ICR reflects the requirements of the final revisions.

FERC-725V, (Renewal) Mandatory Reliability Standards: COM Reliability Standards

Key Information

Abstract

FERC-725V Renewal: The reporting requirements for the FERC-725V information collection remain unchanged. Reliability Standards COM-001-3 and COM-002-4 do not require responsible entities to file information with the Commission, but only to maintain records of the availability of communication mediums (systems) used for Bulk Electric System (BES) operations (Interpersonal Communications and Alternate Interpersonal Communications systems). Reliability Standard COM-001-3 reflects revisions developed under Project 2015-07 Internal Communications Capabilities, in compliance with the Commission’s directive in Order No. 888 that NERC “develop modifications to COM-001-2, or develop a new standard, to address [the Commission’s] concerns regarding ensuring the adequacy of internal communications capability whenever internal communications could directly affect the reliability operations of the Bulk-Power System. With respect to the proposed revisions to Reliability Standard COM-001-3 and the retirement of the currently-effective Reliability Standard COM-001-2.1, the Commission estimates that there will be no material change in industry information collection obligations because the Requirements R12 and R13 (which are additions to COM-001-3) do not impact the paperwork burden of impacted registered entities.

FERC-725X, Mandatory Reliability Standards: Voltage and Reactive (VAR) Standards

Key Information

Abstract

NERC established the Voltage and Reactive (“VAR”) group of Reliability Standards, which consists of two continent-wide Reliability Standards, VAR-001-4.2 and VAR-002-4.1. These two standards were designed to maintain voltage stability on the Bulk-Power System, protect transmission, generation, distribution, and customer equipment, and support the reliable operation of the Bulk-Power System. Voltage stability is the ability of a power system to maintain acceptable voltage levels throughout the system under normal operating conditions and following a disturbance. Failure to maintain acceptable voltage levels (i.e., voltage levels become too high or too low) may cause violations of System Operating Limits (“SOLs”) and Interconnection Reliability Operating Limits (“IROLs”), resulting in damage to Bulk-Power System equipment, and thereby threaten the reliable operation of the Bulk-Power System.

New collection (Request for a new OMB Control Number)
Rail Transit Roadway Worker Protection (RWP)

Key Information

Abstract

This is a new information collection request (ICR) associated with a Final Rulemaking titled "Rail Transit Roadway Worker Protection" (RWP). The FTA published the NPRM for the RWP regulation on March 25, 2024. There were no comments received on the NPRM associated with the information collection burden or costs; instead, most comments came from labor unions, academic institutions, trades, individuals, and State DOTs, all expressing support for the proposed rule to enhance the safety of rail transit workers. The respondents for this information collection will be Rail Transit Agencies (RTAs) that operate fixed guideway public transportation systems and State Safety Oversight Agencies (SSOAs) that oversee those rail systems. This regulation is the first to mandate worker protection standards across all rail transit agencies. The Final Rulemaking will establish minimum RWP safety standards aimed at preventing accidents, fatalities, and injuries among transit workers who access the roadway as part of their duties. It will also outline safety rules, practices, and methods designed to improve both roadway worker safety and operational efficiency. Most of the information collected under this program is already being gathered, as all RTAs have some form of RWP protections in place. RTAs currently manage risks using various RWP strategies. This program is mandatory for obtaining or retaining federal financial assistance, and the information collection from RTAs and SSOAs is intended for reporting purposes to ensure compliance with specific safety standards. RTAs are required to create, maintain, and distribute an RWP manual to document their RWP program and clarify the responsibilities of both the RTA and rail transit workers. This information will be collected at least every two years, either through reports or existing audit processes. The FTA has not established a template for the RWP manual, intentionally allowing flexibility for RTAs to develop compliant programs that suit their size and complexity. Based on feedback from FTA Advisory 14-1, the FTA estimates that most RTAs already have formal standalone RWP programs, which they can adjust as needed using their existing Safety Management System (SMS) processes, with regulatory standards serving as a baseline. While RTAs must document their programs and clarify responsibilities, they have the freedom to format the manual according to their preferences.

Revision of a currently approved collection
West Coast Region Pacific Tuna Fisheries Logbook, Fish Aggregating Device Form, and Observer Safety Reporting

Key Information

Abstract

This request is for a revision and extension of a currently approved collection of information. The revisions are a result of a final rule (RIN: 0648-BM70) under the Tuna Conventions Act (TCA) of 1950, as amended, to implement Resolutions adopted at the 101st Meeting of the Inter-American Tropical Tuna Commission (IATTC) in August 2023. These Resolutions include Resolution C-23-03 (Amendment to Resolution C-99-07 on Fish Aggregating Devices) and Resolution C-23-04 (On The Design and Biodegradability of Drifting Fish Aggregating Devices (DFADs) in the IATTC Area of Competence). The final rule modifies regulations for the design of fish aggregating devices (FADs) in the eastern Pacific Ocean (EPO) to require non-entangling and biodegradable materials. Furthermore, the rule requires that vessels engaged in FAD recovery projects in the IATTC convention area report data on recovered FADs to the IATTC.

Medicare Part D Reporting Requirements and Supporting Regulations in MMA Title I, Part 423, §423.514(a) (CMS-10185) - IRA

Key Information

Abstract

Section 1860D–12(b)(3)(D) of the Act provides broad authority for the Secretary to add terms to the contracts with Part D sponsors, including terms that require the sponsor to provide the Secretary with information as the Secretary may find necessary and appropriate. Pursuant to our statutory authority, we codified these information collection requirements for Part D sponsors in regulation at 42 CFR §423.514(a). The Center for Medicare (CM) has identified the appropriate data needed to effectively monitor the Medicare Prescription Drug Benefit through these Part D reporting requirements. Changes to the currently approved data collection instrument reflect new executive orders, legislation, as well as recent changes to Agency policy and guidance. One example is the reporting section, Medicare Prescription Payment Plan, which will support the Inflation Reduction Act’s (Section 1860D-2(b)(2)(E) of the Social Security Act, as added by section 11202 of the IRA) provision that all Medicare Part D sponsors offer their Part D enrollees the option to pay their out-of-pocket (OOP) Part D drug costs through monthly payments over the course of the plan year. .
