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.

RCRA Subtitle C Reporting Instructions and Forms (Renewal)

Key Information

Abstract

Under the authority of the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976 (RCRA), as amended, Congress directed the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency to implement a comprehensive program for the safe management of hazardous waste. In addition, Congress wrote that [a]ny person may petition the Administrator for the promulgation, amendment or repeal of any regulation under RCRA (section 7004(a)). 40 CFR parts 260 and 261 contain provisions that allow regulated entities to apply for petitions, variances, exclusions, and exemptions from various RCRA requirements. The following are some examples of information required from petitioners under 40 CFR part 260. Under 40 CFR 260.20(b), all rulemaking petitioners must submit basic information with their demonstrations, including name, address, and statement of interest in the proposed action. Under 260.21, all petitioners for equivalent testing or analytical methods must include specific information in their petitions and demonstrate to the satisfaction of the Administrator that the proposed method is equal to, or superior to, the corresponding method in terms of its sensitivity, accuracy, and reproducibility. Under 260.22, petitions to amend part 261 to exclude a waste produced at a particular facility (more simply, to delist a waste) must meet extensive informational requirements. When a petition is submitted, the Agency reviews materials, deliberates, publishes its tentative decision in the Federal Register, and requests public comment. The EPA also may hold informal public hearings (if requested by an interested person or at the discretion of the Administrator) to hear oral comments on its tentative decision. After evaluating all comments, the EPA publishes its final decision in the Federal Register. With this renewal, this ICR will no longer include the burden associated with the disposal of coal combustion residuals (CCR) from electric utilities as solid waste under Subtitle D of RCRA, found at 40 CFR part 257, subpart D. That burden is covered by OMB Control No. 2050-0223.

Key Information

Abstract

This information collection request is for the “Applicable Integrated Plan Coverage Decision Letter” or the “coverage decision letter” will be issued as a result of an integrated organization determination under 42 CFR 422.631, when an applicable integrated plan reduces, stops, suspends, or denies, in whole or in part, a request for a service/item (including a Part B drug) or a request for payment of a service/item (including a Part B drug) the member has already received. “Applicable integrated plans” are defined at 42 CFR 422.561 as full integrated dual special needs plans (FIDE SNPs) and highly integrated dual special needs plans (HIDE SNPs) with exclusively aligned enrollment, where state policy limits the D-SNP’s membership to a Medicaid managed care plan offered by the same organization. These plans will issue the coverage decision letter starting in CY 2021 in place of the Notice of Denial of Medical Coverage (or Payment) (NDMCP) form (CMS-10003) as part of requirements to unify appeals and grievance processes.

Manufacturers of Nonbeverage Products - Records to Support Claims for Drawback, TTB REC 5530/2

Key Information

Abstract

The Internal Revenue Code (IRC) at 26 U.S.C.5001 imposes Federal excise tax on distilled spirits produced or imported into the United States. The IRC at 26 U.S.C. 5111–5114 allows manufacturers of certain “nonbeverage” products—medicines, medicinal preparations, food products, flavors, flavoring extracts, or perfume—to claim drawback (refund) of all but $1.00 per proof gallon of the excise tax paid on the distilled spirits contained in or used in the production of such products. Under those IRC authorities, TTB has issued regulations in 27 CFR part 17 governing nonbeverage product drawback claims, which includes requirements to keep source records supporting such claims. The required records, which may consist of usual and customary business records, document the distilled spirits received, taxes paid, date and quantity used, amount of alcohol recovered, other ingredients received and used (to validate formula compliance), quantity of intermediate products transferred to other plants, and the disposition or purchaser of the products. The collected information is necessary to protect the revenue as it helps prevent payment of incorrect or fraudulent drawback claims and the diversion to beverage use of distilled spirits on which respondents claim nonbeverage drawback.

Reporting Requirements for Traveling by Air with Service Animals

Key Information

Abstract

The Air Carrier Access Act (ACAA, 49 U.S.C. § 41705) prohibits discriminatory treatment of persons with disabilities in air transportation. On December 2, 2020, the Department issued a final rule to amend the its ACAA regulation on the transport of service animals to ensure that our air transportation system is safe for the traveling public and accessible to individuals with disabilities. The information collection requirements in this rule allow airlines to collect from passengers traveling with service animals a U.S. Department of Transportation Service Animal Air Transportation Form and, if applicable, a U.S. Department of Transportation Service Animal Relief Attestation. The Department believes that it is important and appropriate to allow airlines to require passengers to provide documentation to affirm that their service animal is in good health, is well behaved, and has been trained to do work or perform tasks to assist individuals with disabilities as a condition of transport.

Administrative Remedies -- Requests for Closing Agreements

Key Information

Abstract

The Internal Revenue Code (IRC) at 26 U.S.C. 7121 authorizes the Secretary of the Treasury to enter into a written agreement with any person, or their agent, relating to the liability of that person for any internal revenue tax for any taxable period. Under that authority, TTB has issued regulations at 27 CFR 70.485 pertaining to such “closing agreements.” Specific to this information collection, that regulation requires a taxpayer or their agent to submit a written request to TTB to enter into a closing agreement to resolve excise tax matters. TTB uses the information collected in the request and any attached supporting documentation to determine whether the Bureau should pursue a closing agreement with the taxpayer. Closing agreements allow TTB and a taxpayer to resolve tax liability matters prior to any adversarial legal or administrative proceedings.

Tobacco Products Manufacturers - Supporting Records for Removals for the Use of the United States

Key Information

Abstract

Under the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) at 26 U.S.C. 5701, tobacco products, cigarette papers, and cigarette tubes manufactured in or imported into the United States are subject to a Federal excise tax, and, under 26 U.S.C. 5741, manufacturers and importers of such articles must keep records as the Secretary of the Treasury prescribes by regulation. In addition, the IRC at 26 U.S.C. 5704(b) provides that manufacturers may remove tobacco products and cigarette papers and tubes without payment of tax "for use of the United States" under regulations issued by the Secretary. Under those IRC authorities, the TTB regulations at 27 CFR 45.51 require manufacturers removing such articles for use of the United States to keep records documenting the articles' date of removal, the name and address of the receiving Federal agency, the kind and quantity of articles removed, and, for large cigars, the sale price. The required records also must detail any such articles that an agency returns to the manufacturer. The required records, which may consist of usual and customary commercial records such as invoices, are necessary to ensure that tobacco products and cigarette papers and tubes removed without payment of tax are delivered to a Federal agency for the authorized tax-exempt use.

Abstract

State Workforce Agencies (SWAs) are required by Federal regulations at 20 CFR 653.500 to participate in the intrastate and interstate clearance system for the orderly recruitment and movement of agricultural workers. Wagner-Peyser Employment Service (ES) regulations at § 653.501(a), (b), (c) and (d) enumerate the contents of these orders. The Employment and Training Administration (ETA) created the Agricultural Clearance Order (Form ETA-790) for the recruitment of workers beyond the local commuting area (20 CFR 653.501). Per 2 CFR 200.334, the record retention for Form ETA-790 is three years from the date of submission of the final expenditure report as authorized by DOL.

Key Information

Abstract

Under the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) at 26 U.S.C. 5053, 5214, and 5362, distilled spirits, wine, and beer may be exported without payment of Federal excise tax. In addition, under the IRC at 26 U.S.C. 5055 and 5062, taxpaid distilled spirits, wine, and beer may be exported and the exporter may claim drawback (refund) on the excise taxes paid. Exporters must complete various TTB and Customs information collections to show that the products were in fact exported. Specific to this information collection, the TTB alcohol export regulations in 27 CFR part 28 require proprietors and drawback claimants to maintain record copies of all pertinent forms and commercial records that document the exportation of non-taxpaid alcohol beverages and taxpaid alcohol beverages for which drawback will be claimed. In addition, the TTB regulations require respondents to maintain such records for at least 3 years. The collected information is necessary to protect the revenue as it allows TTB to verify the exportation of non-taxpaid alcohol beverages and taxpaid alcohol beverages on which drawback will be claimed.

Application for Amended Basic Permit under the Federal Alcohol Administration Act

Key Information

Abstract

The Federal Alcohol Administration Act (FAA Act), at 27 U.S.C. 203, requires that a person apply for and receive a permit, known as a “basic permit,” to: (1) Import distilled spirits, wine, or malt beverages into the United States; (2) distill spirits or produce wine, rectify or blend distilled spirits or wine, or bottle and/or warehouse distilled spirits; or (3) purchase distilled spirits, wine, or malt beverages for resale at wholesale. The FAA Act, at 27 U.S.C. 204, also imposes certain requirements for basic permits and authorizes the Secretary of the Treasury to prescribe the manner and form of all applications for basic permits. The TTB regulations in 27 CFR part 1 provide for the amendment of an existing basic permit using form TTB F 5100.18 when changes occur to the name, trade name, address, ownership, management, or control of the business. The collected information allows TTB to determine if applicants for amended basic permits meet the FAA Act’s statutory eligibility criteria to hold a basic permit.

Marks and Notices on Packages of Tobacco Products, TTB REC 5210/13

Key Information

Abstract

The Internal Revenue Code (IRC) at 26 U.S.C. 5723(b) requires packages of tobacco products (cigars, cigarettes, smokeless tobacco (snuff and chewing tobacco), pipe tobacco, and roll-your-own tobacco) and cigarette paper and tubes to bear the marks and notices required by regulation. Under that authority, the TTB regulations in 27 CFR parts 40, 41, 44, and 45 require packages or, in certain cases, containers, of domestic and imported tobacco products and cigarette papers and tubes to bear certain marks identifying the product, its producer, place of production, excise tax class, and its quantity or weight, depending on the basis of the tax. The TTB regulations also require certain tax-exemption notices to appear on packages or shipping containers of tobacco products and cigarette papers or tubes intended for export or for use of the United States as such articles may be removed without tax payment or with benefit of tax drawback. The required marks are necessary to protect the revenue as they identify tobacco-related articles, their tax class, and the responsible taxpayer. In addition, the required notices on tax-exempt articles help prevent or identify their diversion into the taxable domestic market.

Schedule of Tobacco Products, Cigarette Papers, or Tubes Withdrawn from the Market

Key Information

Abstract

The Internal Revenue Code (IRC) at 26 U.S.C. 5705 provides that a manufacturer or importer may receive credit for or refund of the Federal excise taxes paid on tobacco products, cigarette papers, or cigarette tubes withdrawn from the market if the Secretary of the Treasury is provided with satisfactory proof of the withdrawal. Under that IRC authority, the TTB regulations provide for the use of TTB F 5200.7 to identify tobacco products, cigarette papers, or cigarette tubes to be withdrawn from the market and the location of those articles. The form also documents the taxpayer’s planned disposition of the articles (destroyed, reduced to materials, or returned to bond), and TTB’s decision to witness or not witness that disposition. Taxpayers then file the completed TTB F 5200.7 to support their subsequent claim for credit or refund of the excise taxes paid on the withdrawn articles. The collected information is necessary to protect the revenue as it allows TTB to determine if such claims are valid.

Formula Grant EASIE Annual Performance Report

Key Information

Abstract

The purpose of Indian Education Formula Grant to Local Agencies, as authorized under section 6116 of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 (ESEA), as amended by the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) is to assist grantees to provide Indian students with the opportunity to meet the same challenging state standards as all other students and meet the unique educational and culturally related academic needs of Indian students. The Indian Education Formula Grant (Assistance Listing Number 84.060A), is neither competitive nor discretionary and requires the annual submission of the application from either a local education agency, tribe, Indian organization, or Indian community-based organization. The amount of the award for each applicant is determined by a formula based on the reported number of Indian students identified in the application, the state per pupil expenditure, and the total appropriation available. The Office of Indian Education (OIE) of The Department of Education (ED) collects annual performance data within the same system that collects the annual application. The application and the annual performance report are both housed in the OMB MAX/Connect.gov Survey. Clearance was granted for the Electronic Application System for Indian Education (EASIE) Annual Performance Report (EASIE Part III) in a revised information collection by OIE. This is a request for revision of this collection. We have removed the fax number fields from this collection. In addition, we propose revisions that will clarify instructions and improve usability.

Abstract

The Internal Revenue Code (IRC) at 26 U.S.C. 5722 requires manufacturers of tobacco products, cigarette papers and tubes, and processed tobacco to make reports containing such information, in such form, at such times, and for such periods as the Secretary of the Treasury prescribes by regulation. The TTB regulations at 27 CFR 40.202, 40.422, and 40.522 prescribe the use of TTB F 5210.5 to report information about tobacco products and cigarette papers and tubes manufactured, received, and removed each month, and the use of TTB F 5250.1 to report information about processed tobacco manufactured, received, and removed each month. TTB uses the collected information to ensure that manufacturers of such articles properly pay Federal excise taxes, do not divert untaxed articles, and are in compliance with applicable Federal law and regulations.

Application for an Industrial Alcohol User Permit

Key Information

Abstract

The Internal Revenue Code (IRC) at 26 U.S.C. 5271 requires persons to obtain a permit from the Secretary of the Treasury before they: (1) procure or use tax-free distilled spirits; (2) procure, deal in, or use specially denatured distilled spirits; or (3) recover specially denatured or completely denatured distilled spirits. That section also prescribes the reasons the Secretary may deny or suspend such a permit, and it authorizes the Secretary to issue regulations regarding new and amended permit applications. Under that IRC authority, TTB has issued regulations regarding such industrial alcohol user permits, which are contained in 27 CFR Part 20, Distribution and Use of Denatured Alcohol and Rum, and 27 CFR Part 22, Distribution and Use of Tax-Free Alcohol. Specifically, the TTB regulations require persons who desire to withdraw, deal in, use, or recover specially denatured alcohol (alcohol or rum), and those who desire to use tax-free alcohol, to apply for and receive a permit before beginning such activities. Those regulations specify that respondents must apply for such a permit using form TTB F 5150.22, Application for an Industrial Alcohol User Permit. The regulations also prescribe what data and supporting documentation respondents must include with their permit application, and specify when a respondent must amend an existing permit. TTB uses collected information to determine the eligibility of the applicant to engage in operations involving specially denatured or tax-free alcohol, the location of the proposed operations, and whether those operations will be conducted in compliance with Federal laws and regulations. As such, the collected information is necessary to protect the revenue.

Labeling of Major Food Allergens and Petitions for Exemption

Key Information

Abstract

The Federal Alcohol Administration Act (FAA Act) at 27 U.S.C. 205(e) authorizes the Secretary of the Treasury to issue regulations regarding the labeling of distilled spirits, wines containing 7 percent or more alcohol by volume, and beer that is made with both malted barley and hops in order to, among other things, prohibit consumer deception and ensure that labels provide consumers with adequate information as to the identity and quality of such products. Under that authority, the TTB regulations provide for the voluntary labeling of major food allergens used in the production of such alcohol beverages. (As defined in the Food Allergen Labeling and Consumer Protection Act of 2004 (118 Stat. 905), the major food allergens are milk, eggs, fish, crustacean shellfish, tree nuts, peanuts, wheat, and soybeans.) Under the TTB regulations, if an alcohol beverage bottler declares any one major food allergen contained in a product or used in its production, the bottler must declare all such allergens, including those used as fining or processing agents. However, the regulations allow a bottler to petition TTB for a labeling exemption for an allergen if evidence shows that, while used in the product's production, it is not present in the finished product at levels that would pose a risk to human health. This information collection allows bottlers to alert consumers sensitive to major food allergens to their presence in finished alcohol beverages while allowing bottlers to avoid consumer confusion by exempting from disclosure allergens that, while used in a product’s production, are not present in the finished product at levels that would pose a risk to human health.
