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.

Survivor Annuity Election for a Spouse

Key Information

Abstract

Survivor Annuity Election for a Spouse is an ICR containing one form and two cover letters. RI 20-63, Survivor Annuity Election for a Spouse, is available for retirees to file a specific written election with OPM to provide a survivor annuity. RI 20-63 is sent with RI 20-117, a cover letter customized to fit the annuitant’s specific situation, to provide information about the annuity payable after a survivor reduction to obtain the maximum survivor annuity. If the annuitant uses RI 20-63 to elect less than the maximum survivor annuity, we use RI 20-116 to supply the updated calculations of their requested election.

Disaster Assistance Registration

Key Information

Abstract

The forms in this collection are used to obtain pertinent information to provide financial assistance, and if necessary, direct assistance to eligible individuals and households who, as a direct result of a disaster or emergency, have uninsured or under-insured, necessary or serious expenses they are unable to meet. This revision of a currently approved information collection will improve the applicant’s experience with the disaster assistance registration process by providing a simpler, more intuitive interface and limiting required responses to those needed based on their needs. These changes will help rebuild trust in the Federal Government by promoting transparency of FEMA’s Disaster Assistance application process.

Employee Retirement Income Security Act Section 408(b)(2) Regulation

Key Information

Abstract

The prohibited transaction described in section 406(a)(1)(C) of ERISA generally prohibits the furnishing of goods, services, or facilities between a plan and a party in interest to the plan. Because ERISA defines any person furnishing services to the plan as a “party in interest” to the plan, a service relationship between a plan and a service provider would constitute a prohibited transaction under section 406(a)(1)(C) in the absence of relief. Section 408(b)(2) of ERISA provides relief, however, for service contracts or arrangements if the contract or arrangement is “reasonable,” if the services are necessary for the establishment or operation of the plan, and if no more than “reasonable” compensation is paid for the services. The Department's final rule under ERISA section 408(b)(2) (29 CFR 2550.408b–2) requires reasonable contracts or arrangements between employee pension benefit plans and certain providers of services to such plans include specified information to assist plan fiduciaries in assessing the reasonableness of the compensation paid for services and the conflicts of interest that may affect a service provider's performance of services. The Department also issued a class prohibited transaction exemption as part of the final rule. The class exemption grants plan fiduciaries relief from liability for a prohibited transaction resulting from the service provider's failure to comply with the regulation's disclosure requirements. The Department recognizes that a plan fiduciary may on occasion unknowingly enter into a contract or arrangement that does not meet the requirements of the regulation for relief under ERISA section 408(b)(2), in the reasonable belief that the service provider has divulged the requisite information. If the requirements of the rule are not satisfied, a prohibited transaction occurs for both the service provider and the plan fiduciary, but for the availability of the class exemption.

Generic Clearance for the Collection of Qualitative Feedback on Agency Service Delivery (Renewal)

Key Information

Abstract

The information collection activity provides the Agency with an opportunity to efficiently engage its customers and stakeholders by gathering qualitative information about their interaction with Agency. Getting such feedback in a timely manner is critical if the Agency is to know how and where it should focus while seeking to improve, or expand upon, its products and services. The Agency will submit a collection request for approval under this generic clearance only if the collections are: Voluntary; low burden and low-cost for both the respondents and the Federal Government; noncontroversial; targeted to respondents who have experience with the program or may have experience with the program in the near future; and abstain from collecting personally identifiable information (PII) to the greatest extent possible. Information gathered will be used internally for general service improvement and program management purposes and released publicly only in an anonymized or aggregated fashion. It will not be used to substantially inform influential policy decisions.

Large Trader Reporting for Physical Commodity Swaps

Key Information

Abstract

Part 20 of the Commission’s regulations requires clearing organizations and any persons that are “reporting entities” to file swaps position data with the Commission. The Reporting Rules collect clearing member reports from clearing organizations. The Reporting Rules also require position reports from reporting entities for principal and counterparty positions in cleared and uncleared physical commodity swaps. Reporting entities are those persons that are either “clearing members” or “swap dealers” that are otherwise not clearing members. For purposes of part 20, reporting parties are required to submit data on positions on a futures equivalent basis so as to allow the Commission to assess a trader’s market impact across differently structured but linked derivatives instruments and markets. The Part 20 Reporting Rules for physical commodity swaps, in conjunction with the Commission’s current large trader reporting system for commodity futures and options, are used by the Commission to support its market, financial and trading abuse surveillance programs. Swaps position reports represent a critical component for the implementation of an effective surveillance-based regulatory approach that includes market, financial and trading surveillance programs.

Refugee Support Services (RSS) and RSS Set Aside Sub-Grantee List

Key Information

Abstract

The Administration for Children and Families (ACF) at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) seeks approval of an extension with no changes for an information collection. This collection requests Refugee Support Services (RSS) grantees and RSS Set-Aside grantees to provide the agency name, city, state, website, and funding amount for each contracted sub-grantee. Most RSS Grantees and RSS Set-Aside grantees sub-contract with sub-grantees to provide direct services to clients. Information about sub-grantees is necessary for the Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR) to identify which local agencies are receiving ORR funding through RSS and RSS Set-Aside funding as well as ORR’s numerous discretionary grants which are funded directly by ORR. The information also allows ORR to share information other than the funding amount with federal partners who may make the information public. The information we make public includes state, city, sub-grantee, website, and program. Currently, as stated below, ORR only shares this publicly with Department of Labor for their “One Stop Career Center” program. This is relevant for programs with employability components: RSS and Youth Mentoring. Refugees, special immigrant visa holders, trafficking survivors, Cuban/Haitian Entrants, Amerasians, and asylees are all eligible for ORR Refugee Programs. Of all these different populations, ORR has continued to struggle to connect eligible individuals who are paroled and annually granted asylum to ORR services. Parolees and asylees often have to work independently to find services or with their immigration attorneys. ORR also lists the Matching Grant (MG) sub-grantees (or local providers) on the Department of Labor website, but MG is only for individuals who have just received asylum within the past month and services only last for a total of six months. RSS employment services are for individuals within five years of obtaining asylum, so it is extremely beneficial to asylees and immigration attorneys to have these services all provided in one public location as well. This information collection provides ORR with the data it needs for national resource mapping at the local level. In other words, it assists ORR in identifying agencies which receive ORR funding through numerous ORR sources. Local agencies may receive funding through ORR directly, through non-governmental organizations (NGOs) that receive ORR funding and sub-grant out the work, and through states or replacement designees. ORR used to collect this information for its discretionary grants but began collecting this information for formula RSS and RSS Set-Aside grantees when this form was initially approved in October 2020. This information collection is related to and funded by Refugee Support Services, is authorized by the Refugee Act of 1980 [Immigration and Nationality Act, Title IV, Chapter 2 Section 412 (e)] and 45 CFR §400.28 and is being conducted by the ORR, Division of Refugee Assistance.

Pilot Records Improvement Act of 1996/ Pilot Record Database

Key Information

Abstract

With the exception of Form 8060-14 and -15, an operator utilizes the various 8060 series forms to report a request for the applicable records of all applicants for the position of pilot with their company as needed under PRIA. The information collected on these forms will be used only to facilitate search and retrieval of the requested records, and submission is mandatory until PRIA sunsets on Oct 1, 2024. Operators then “may use such records only to assess the qualification of the individual in deciding whether or not to hire the individual as a pilot.” (49 U.S.C. § 44703(h)(11)). Form 8060-14 is used by pilots who cannot access the PRD themselves in order to release records to an operator, and its use is voluntary until the FAA issues the PRD final rule. While the FAA expects most pilots will access the PRD web-based application themselves and release records to operators for review, there will be cases when pilots cannot access the PRD application. In those cases, the pilot will complete the Form 8060-14 and submit to the FAA. The form instructs the FAA to access the PRD on behalf of the pilot and release the records to the specified operator(s). The form may also be used to revoke consent to the records, and update the pilot’s employment history if needed. The information is collected on an as needed basis. The Form 8060-15 will also be used also used by pilots who cannot access the PRD themselves. This form allows a pilot to mark a record as disputed and to initiate the correction process for non-FAA forms. The remaining “web-based” data collection tools are used by operators to enter various records into the PRD as required by part 111. Pilots also use the PRD web site to enter their previous aviation employers. The information entered is associated with a pilot, which is then made available to a hiring operator after the pilot grants consent allowing the records to be viewed. The hiring operator then uses the information to help them perform a comprehensive assessment of the pilot prior to making a hiring decision, as required by the Act.

NESHAP for Cellulose Products Manufacturing (40 CFR part 63, subpart UUUU) (Renewal)

Key Information

Abstract

The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for Cellulose Products Manufacturing (hereafter referred to as the NESHAP) was proposed on August 28, 2000, promulgated on June 11, 2002, and most recently amended on February 27, 2014. This supporting statement addresses information collection activities imposed by the Cellulose Products Manufacturing NESHAP, including both activities for which the burden has previously been approved and activities added based on the residual risk and technology review (RTR) required under the Clean Air Act (CAA). These information collection activities are required to assure compliance with 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart UUUU, as amended. The NESHAP applies to each existing, reconstructed, and new Cellulose Products Manufacturing operation that is a major source of hazardous air pollutant (HAP) emissions or is collocated with other sources that are individually or collectively a major source of HAP emissions. A major source emits or has the potential to emit any single HAP at the rate of 10 tons (9.07 megagrams) or more per year, or any combination of HAP at a rate of 25 tons (22.68 megagrams) or more per year. The Cellulose Products Manufacturing source category comprises the miscellaneous viscose production source category and cellulose ether production source category. The miscellaneous viscose processes source category currently includes the cellulose food casing, cellophane, and cellulosic sponge industry sectors. (All facilities in the rayon industry sector, which had been part of the category, have shut down.) The cellulose ethers production source category includes the carboxymethyl cellulose, hydroxyethyl cellulose, hydroxypropyl cellulose, hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose, and methyl cellulose industry sectors. New facilities include those that commenced construction, or reconstruction after the date of the original proposal (August 28, 2000). As part of the RTR amendments to the Cellulose Products Manufacturing NESHAP, the EPA eliminated the startup, shutdown, and malfunction (SSM) exemption; removed the SSM plan requirement; added periodic performance testing; provided biofilter effluent conductivity as an alternative to monitoring pH; added electronic submittal of notifications, semiannual reports and performance test reports; and made other technical and editorial changes. The remaining portions of the NESHAP remain unchanged. In general, all NESHAP standards 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; startup, shutdown, or malfunction in the operation of an affected facility; and any period during which a monitoring system is inoperative. These notifications, reports, and records are essential in determining compliance and are required of all affected facilities subject to NESHAP.

Triennial Network Adequacy Review for Medicare Advantage Organizations and 1876 Cost Plans (CMS-10636)

Revision of a currently approved collection
Triennial Network Adequacy Review for Medicare Advantage Organizations and 1876 Cost Plans (CMS-10636)

Key Information

Abstract

This proposed collection of information is essential to appropriate and timely compliance monitoring by CMS, in order to ensure that all active MAO contracts offering network-based plans maintain an adequate network. Currently, CMS verifies that MAOs are compliant with the current CMS network adequacy criteria by performing a contract-level network review, which occurs when CMS requests that an MAO upload provider and facility Health Service Delivery (HSD) tables for a given contract to the Health Plan Management System (HPMS). If an MAO does not have its contract-level network formally reviewed by CMS after the initial contract application process, then there is no CMS requirement for a network adequacy review unless one of the above listed triggering events occurs. Therefore, CMS is proposing this collection of information in order to improve monitoring of MAOs’ network adequacy. This collection of information requires the uploading of HSD tables to the Network Management Module (NMM) in HPMS for any contract that has not had an entire network review performed by CMS in the previous three years of contract operation. The collection process will occur at the contract level for each MAO that qualifies, and CMS will assess each contract against the current CMS network adequacy criteria. Each time an MAO’s contract undergoes an entire network review during any of the triggering events listed on page one, the three-year anniversary date for that contract will be reset, and CMS will maintain an HPMS report to keep track of this date for every active network-based contract.
