Change Requests

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.

Ecosystem Resilience (43 CFR part 6100)

Key Information

Abstract

The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) proposes to clarify and support the principles of multiple use and sustained yield in the management of the public lands. This rule would incorporate climate resiliency and restoration through conservation in the management of the public lands pursuant to the Federal Land Policy and Management Act (FLPMA) and other relevant authorities. This final rule rests within 43 CFR 6000, which includes Preservation and Conservation, and would provide an overarching framework governing multiple resource areas to ensure land health and sustained yield. The rule also updates 43 CFR 1610.7–2 Designation of areas of critical environmental concern, to provide consistency in implementing FLPMA’s directive that the BLM give priority to the designation and protection of areas of critical environmental concern (ACEC). This rule would affirm the important role of restoration and protection actions in building and maintaining sustainable land management practices to ensure healthy and productive ecosystems for current and future generations. This request is being submitted in connection with the proposed rule for 43 CFR Parts 6100 and 6100 (RIN 1004-AE92).

Coordination of Federal Authorization for Electric Transmission Facilities

Key Information

Abstract

Section 216(h) of the Federal Power Act, as implemented by a 2009 Memorandum of Understanding, requires the Department of Energy (DOE) to issue regulations governing the coordination of Federal authorizations for proposed interstate electric transmission facilities. The regulations allow applicants to request information on the completeness of an application for authorization or permit, as well as the likelihood of project approval based on early submission, compilation, and documentation of information needed to identify potential siting constraints or opportunities discussed in the proposed process (section 900.4), which is required by section 216(h)(4)(C). The regulations also allow applicants to request DOE coordination assistance for projects other than qualifying projects (section 900.2), as authorized by section 216(h)(3). This information collection package accounts for the requirements of these regulatory provisions.

There is currently no comprehensive collection of information regarding the organization and practices of State Workforce Agencies (SWAs) with regard to how the TAA Program is administered. The submissions will be used by Employment and Training Administration (ETA) staff to collect information regarding SWA administration and operations of the TAA Program only to evaluate best practices. Failure to collect this information would prevent the Department from identifying the most effective mechanisms for increasing program efficiency.

Mitigation of Orbital Debris

Key Information

Abstract

The Federal Communications Commission (“Commission”) requests that the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) approve a revision of the information collection titled “Mitigation of Orbital Debris,” under OMB Control No. 3060-1013, as a result of changes adopted in the Commission’s Report and Order, FCC 20-54, IB Docket No. 18-313, titled “Mitigation of Orbital Debris in the New Space Age” (Orbital Debris Report and Order), and released on April 24, 2020. In the Orbital Debris Report and Order, the Commission updated its rules related to orbital debris mitigation, including application requirements. The new rules are designed to ensure that the Commission’s actions concerning radio communications, including licensing U.S. spacecraft and granting access to the U.S. market for non-U.S. spacecraft, mitigate the growth of orbital debris, while at the same time not creating undue regulatory obstacles to new satellite ventures. The action will help to ensure that Commission decisions are consistent with the public interest in space remaining viable for future satellites and systems and the many services that those systems provide to the public. The rule revisions also provide additional detail to applicants on what information is expected under the Commission’s rules, which can help to increase certainty in the application filing process. While this information collection represents an overall increase in the burden hours, the information collection serves the public interest by ensuring that the Commission and public have necessary information about satellite applicants’ plans for mitigation of orbital debris.

Nondiscrimination on the Basis of Sex in Education Programs or Activities Receiving Federal Financial Assistance

Key Information

Abstract

The U.S. Department of Education (the Department) published a Notice of Final Rulemaking for the Nondiscrimination on the Basis of Sex in Education Programs or Activities Receiving Federal Financial Assistance (Title IX NFR) to finalize amendments to the Departments implementing regulations for Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972. The Departments final regulations would require a recipient to maintain various documents regarding its Title IX activities for a period of at least seven years. These requirements are specified in 34 CFR 106.8(f). Recipients impacted by the proposed regulations include local educational agencies, institutes of higher education and other entities that receive Federal grant funds from the Department. The information collected will allow recipients and the Department to assess on a longitudinal basis whether a recipient is complying with the Departments Title IX regulations when it is has information about sex discrimination, the prevalence of sex discrimination affecting access to a recipients education program or activity, and whether additional or different training is necessary for the recipient to fulfill its obligations under Title IX. The rule relates to the 1870-0506 ICR, ICR Reference No: 202207-1870-001. The RIN # is 1870-AA16 which published 4/29/2024 (Vol 89 page 33474). Docket ID ED–2021–OCR–0166

Key Information

Abstract

The Federal Trade Commission is issuing a final rule promulgating the Non-Compete Clause Rule. The final rule provides that it is an unfair method of competition and therefore a violation of Section 5 of the FTC Act for persons to enter into non-compete clauses (“non-competes”) with workers on or after the final rule’s effective date. With respect to existing non-competes—i.e., the non-competes entered into before the effective date—the final rule adopts a different approach for senior executives than for other workers. For senior executives, existing non-competes can remain in force, while existing non-competes with other workers are not enforceable after the effective date.

Applications and Reports for Registration as a Tanner or Agent

Key Information

Abstract

This is a request for extension of an approved information collection. The Marine Mammal Protection Act (MMPA) (16 U.S.C. 1361 et seq.) mandates the protection and conservation of marine mammals and makes the taking, killing or serious injury of marine mammals, except under permit or exemption, a violation of the Act. An exemption is provided for Alaskan natives to take marine mammals if the taking is for subsistence or for creating and selling authentic native articles of handicraft and clothing. Possession of marine mammals and marine mammal parts by other than Alaskan natives is therefore prohibited (exception, 50 CFR 216.26: beach found non-Endangered Species Act (ESA) teeth or bones that have been registered with NOAA’s National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS)). As native handicrafts are allowed by the MMPA to enter interstate commerce, an exemption is also needed to allow non-natives to handle the skins or other marine mammal produce, whether to tan the pinniped hide or to act as an agent for the native to sell his handicraft products. The information is necessary for law enforcement purposes to ensure that only Alaska Indians, Aleuts, or Eskimos are submitting marine mammal hides or parts for tanning.

Procedures for Requesting a Chemical Risk Evaluation under TSCA (Final Rule)

Key Information

Abstract

This ICR is related to a requirement contained in a proposed rule to implement provisions outlined in the Frank R. Lautenberg Chemical Safety of the 21st Century Act which passed in June 2016 and amended the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA). The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is proposing to amend the process for conducting risk evaluations under the TSCA to determine whether a chemical substance presents an unreasonable risk of injury to health or the environment under the known, intended, or reasonably foreseen conditions of use, without consideration of costs or non-risk factors, including unreasonable risk to potentially exposed or susceptible subpopulations. EPA has reconsidered the procedural framework rule for conducting such risk evaluations and determined that certain aspects of that framework should be revised to align with applicable court decisions and the statutory text, to reflect the Agency’s experience implementing the risk evaluation program following enactment of the 2016 TSCA amendments, and to allow for consideration of scientific advances in the risk evaluation process without need to further amend the Agency’s procedural rule. Revisions to this rule also includes changes to the process by which a manufacture may request that EPA conduct a risk evaluation on a chemical for which they manufacture. This proposed rule outlines the criteria and information chemical manufacturers must provide for EPA to consider a chemical substance for risk evaluation. Also included is Agency’s process and timing to review the request to determine whether to grant or deny. The information collection activities covered by this ICR are those carried out by a chemical manufacturer in requesting a specific chemical risk evaluation under TSCA be conducted by EPA.
