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.

Procedures for State, Tribal, and Local Government Historic Preservation Programs

Key Information

Abstract

The National Historic Preservation Act (16 U.S.C. 470 et seq.), as amended, established the programs and 36 CFR 61 further defined the programs for which NPS created these information collections. The programs relating to these information collections have been in operation for at least 20 years. The Act does not require State, tribal, or local governments to participate in these programs. Those who do participate must meet certain requirements to maintain their eligibility for the programs and the associated funding. Each State and tribe approved, and local government certified under these requirements is eligible to receive grant assistance. 36 CFR 61 details the processes for approval of State and tribal programs, the certification of local governments, and the monitoring and evaluation of State and CLG programs in a manner that ensures the propriety of the uses of this Federal assistance.

Alaska Crab Arbitration

Key Information

Abstract

The National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) Alaska Region requests extension of this currently approved information collection, which supports the arbitration system, a component of the Crab Rationalization Program. The arbitration system was designed to fairly and equitable resolve price, delivery terms, performance standards, and other disputes in the event that individual fishing quota and individual processor quota holders are unable to reach agreement on price and related issues. The arbitration system is necessary to reduce contention in and provide certainty of resolution to price negotiations. The information collected is necessary to verify arbitration organization membership and maintain the arbitration system. There are five elements of this information collection, four of which are submitted to NMFS annually: the Annual Arbitration Organization Report, Market Report, Non-binding Price Formula Report, and Cost Allocation Agreement. However, these reports are only prepared and collected by NMFS for open fisheries. Arbitrations only occur if the parties are unable to reach a directly negotiated agreement. If there is an arbitration, the Contract Arbitrator Report for that fishery’s arbitration is submitted to NMFS. With this extension, the template for the Annual Crab Arbitration Organization Report is updated to include email as a submission method, and the miscellaneous costs for the Cost Allocation Agreement are updated to more accurately reflect the costs for this information collection.

P2 Grantee Required Data Collection in Standard Electronic Format (New)

Key Information

Abstract

This ICR presents EPA's estimates for the burden and costs associated with the information collection activities related to pollution prevention grant programs and the collection of activity and results data from the grantees via a standard electronic format. P2 means reducing or eliminating pollutants from entering any waste stream or otherwise being released into the environment prior to recycling, treatment, or disposal. EPA's P2 program operates three grant programs and is developing two new grant programs. The three existing programs are: The Pollution Prevention State Tribal Assistance Grants (P2 STAG); the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law Pollution Prevention Grants (P2 BIL); and the Source Reduction Assistance (SRA) Grants. The P2 STAG and SRA grants are funded through recurring appropriations and require grantees to provide matching funds. The P2 BIL grants, which are funded through the 2021 Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA), also referred to as the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL), are also STAG but do not require grantees to provide matching funds. The two new grant programs under development are: The Pollution Prevention Grant: Environmental Justice Through Safer/Sustainable Products (P2 EJ Products); and the Pollution Prevention Grant: Environmental Justice in Communities (P2 EJ Facilities). The P2 EJ Products and P2 EJ Facilities grants will also be supported by BIL funding and, as such, do not require grantee matching funds.
