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.

Bilingual Pesticide Labeling Tracking (NEW)

Key Information

Abstract

This is a new information collection activity that covers the paperwork burden for tracking the adoption of bilingual labeling of pesticide products. This ICR was developed as part of a requirement by the Pesticide Registration Improvement Act (PRIA). PRIA was enacted in 2004 and established a new system for registering pesticides including fees and guaranteed decision times, along with funding for farmworker protection activities. PRIA was reauthorized in 2007, 2012, 2019, and most recently on December 29, 2022 (PRIA 5). PRIA 5 amended the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA) to require Spanish language translation for parts of the end-use pesticide product labels where translation is available in the EPA Spanish Translation Guide for Pesticide Labeling (or the Spanish Translation Guide). The Spanish Translation Guide contains translations of the following parts of pesticide product labelsthe keep out of reach of children statement, the restricted use pesticide statement for restricted use products, misuse statements, the signal word, first aid statements, the precautionary statements, personal protective equipment, engineering controls, environmental hazards, physical or chemical hazards, and the storage and disposal statements. PRIA 5 requires that each registered pesticide product released for shipment include either the Spanish language translation for parts of the labeling contained in EPAs Spanish Translation Guide for Pesticide Labeling on the pesticide product container, or a link to such translation via scannable technology or other electronic methods readily accessible on the product label. Antimicrobial pesticide products and non-agricultural/non-restricted use pesticide products may, in lieu of including a translation or a link to the translation, provide a link to the Spanish safety data sheets (SDS) via scannable technology or other electronic methods readily accessible on the product label. PRIA 5 establishes a rolling schedule for the implementation of bilingual labeling, from December 2025 to 2030, with the translations for the most hazardous and toxic pesticide products required first. For Restricted Use Pesticides (RUPs) and agricultural pesticides classified as Acute Toxicity Category I, the deadline is three years after the enactment of PRIA 5, or December 29, 2025. For agricultural pesticides classified as Acute Toxicity Category II, the deadline is five years after enactment, or December 29, 2027. For non-agricultural pesticides classified as Acute Toxicity Category I the deadline is four years after enactment, or December 29, 2026, and those classified as Acute Toxicity Category II six years after enactment, or December 29, 2028. All other pesticides must have the relevant language translated by December 29, 2030. These changes to the pesticide product labels are made using non-notification procedures, which means that the change to the pesticide labeling can be made without notifying, or submitting, the change to EPA for review. PRIA 5 also requires EPA to develop, implement, and make publicly available a plan for tracking the adoption of bilingual labeling by December 29, 2024.

Shake Alert

Key Information

Abstract

Abstract The ShakeAlert system was established in compliance with the following authorities • 42 USC 68 Disaster Relief Act §5132. Disaster warnings • 42 USC 7701 Earthquake Hazards Reduction Act 2004.§7701. The collection of information is necessary as its findings has the potential to save lives Readiness of Federal agencies to issue warnings to State and local officials. The President shall insure that all appropriate Federal agencies are prepared to issue warnings of disasters to State and local officials. As the earthquake detection improves, the messages to populations can save lives by providing seconds of warning that strong shaking from an earthquake is coming. These seconds of extra warning can help people take protective actions, like Drop, Cover, and Hold On (DCHO) to reduce their risk of personal injury. Because seconds matter with ShakeAlert, we need to understand more about how the various parts of the alerting system work and what technical latencies or lag times exist. Without these studies, we would not understand how much time it will take for a Wireless Emergency Alert (WEA) to arrive on the devices of people. This critical information allows to better understand the channels that will be using ShakeAlerts, to determine how long it will take for people to receive the messages, so we can assist in providing information on the best protective actions in their circumstance.

NESHAP for Stationary Reciprocating Internal Combustion Engines (40 CFR part 63, subpart ZZZZ) (Final Rule)

Key Information

Abstract

The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for Stationary Reciprocating Internal Combustion Engines (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart ZZZZ) were proposed on December 19, 2002: promulgated on June 15, 2004; and revised on: June 26, 2006; January 18, 2008; January 30, 2013; and February 27, 2014, and August 10, 2022. These regulations apply to owners and operators of a stationary reciprocating internal combustion engines (RICE) at either a major or area source of hazardous air pollutant (HAP) emissions, except if the stationary RICE is being tested at a stationary RICE test cell/stand. A stationary RICE is any internal combustion engine which uses reciprocating motion to convert heat energy into mechanical work and which is not mobile. New facilities include those that commenced construction, modification or reconstruction after the date of proposal. This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart ZZZZ. In general, all NESHAP standards require initial notifications, performance tests, and periodic reports by the owners/operators of the affected facilities. They are also required to maintain records of the occurrence and duration of any startup, shutdown, or malfunction in the operation of an affected facility, or any period during which the monitoring system is inoperative. These notifications, reports, and records are essential in determining compliance, and are required of all affected facilities subject to NESHAP. Current amendments to the regulations mainly add electronic reporting provisions to the rule. In general, the changes do not result in regulated entities needing to submit anything additional electronically that is not currently submitted via paper copies, and this is therefore expected to lessen recordkeeping and reporting burden. This supporting statement addresses incremental information collection activities that will be imposed by the amendments to the NESHAP for Stationary Reciprocating Internal Combustion Engines.

Certification and Compliance Requirements for Nonroad Spark-ignition Engines (Renewal)

Key Information

Abstract

This information collection is requested under the authority of Title II of the Clean Air Act (42 U.S.C. 7521 et seq.) Under this Title, EPA is charged with issuing certificates of conformity for those engines which comply with applicable emission standards. Such a certificate must be issued before engines may be legally introduced into commerce. To apply for a certificate of conformity, manufacturers are required to submit descriptions of their planned production line, including detailed descriptions of the emission control system, and test data. This information is organized by engine family groups expected to have similar emission characteristics. The emission values achieved during certification testing may also be used in the Averaging, Banking, and Trading (ABT) Program. The program allows manufacturers to bank credits for engine families that emit below the standard and use the credits for families that emit above the standard. They may also trade banked credits with other manufacturers. Participation in the ABT program is voluntary. Different categories of spark-ignition engines may also be required to comply with production-line testing (PLT) and in-use testing. There are also recordkeeping and labeling requirements. This information is collected electronically by the Gasoline Engine Compliance Branch (GECB), Implementation, Analysis and Compliance Division, Office of Transportation and Air Quality (OTAQ), Office of Air and Radiation of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. GECC uses this information to ensure that manufacturers comply with applicable regulations and the Clean Air Act (CAA). It may also be used by the Office of Enforcement and Compliance Assurance (OECA) and the Department of Justice for enforcement purposes. Non-CBI may be disclosed on OTAQ's Web site or upon request under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) to trade associations, environmental groups, and the public. Any information submitted for which a claim of confidentiality is made is safeguarded according to EPA regulations at 40 CFR 2.201 et seq.

Pesticides Data Call In Program (Renewal)

Key Information

Abstract

This ICR covers the information collection (IC) activities associated with the issuance of data-call-ins (DCIs) under section 3(c)(2)(B) of the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA). EPA regulates the use of pesticides under the authority of two federal statutes: FIFRA and the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA) , both as amended by the Food Quality Protection Act (FQPA) of 1996. In general, before manufacturers can sell pesticides in the United States, EPA must evaluate the pesticides thoroughly to ensure that they meet federal safety standards to protect human health and the environment. EPA grants a "registration" or license that permits a pesticide's distribution, sale, and use only after the company meets the scientific and regulatory requirements. FIFRA also requires EPA to assess whether the continued registration of a pesticide causes unreasonable adverse effects on human health or the environment and to decide whether to pursue appropriate regulatory measures. EPA uses the DCIs issued under this ICR to acquire the data necessary to support registration review. In evaluating a pesticide registration application, EPA assesses a wide variety of potential human health and environmental effects associated with the use of the product. Applicants, or potential registrants, must generate or provide the scientific data necessary to address concerns pertaining to the identity, composition, potential adverse effects, and environmental fate of each pesticide. The data allow EPA to evaluate whether a pesticide has the potential to cause harmful effects to human health and the environment, including effects to non-target organisms, federally threatened and endangered (listed) species, and to surface water or ground water. Through a rigorous scientific and public process, EPA specifies the kinds of data and information necessary to make regulatory judgments about the risks and benefits of pesticide products under FIFRA section 3, 4 and 5, as well as the data and information needed to determine the safety of pesticide chemical residues under FFDCA section 408. The regulations in 40 CFR part 158 describe the minimum data and information EPA typically requires to support an application for pesticide registration or amendment; support the reregistration of a pesticide product; support the maintenance of a pesticide registration by means of the data call-in process (e.g., as used in the registration review program); or establish or maintain a tolerance or exemption from the requirements of a tolerance for a pesticide chemical residue. As described in 40 CFR 158.30, however, FIFRA provides EPA with flexibility to require, or not require, data and information for the purposes of making regulatory judgments for individual pesticide products, thereby allowing for the data required to be modified on an individual basis to fully characterize the use and properties, characteristics, or effects of specific pesticide products under review. EPA may, therefore, require the submission of additional data or information beyond that specified in the regulations if such data or information are needed to evaluate a pesticide product as required by FIFRA and FFDCA. This ICR describes how DCIs are issued and presents the Agency’s estimates of the information collection burden and costs associated with issuing DCIs.

Application for a Social Security Card

Key Information

Abstract

SSA requires the information we collect from the form SS-5 and SS-5-FS to issue original, and replacement cards, and to change or correct information on a Social Security number record. The agency uses a number of different instruments to collect this information depending on when the collection happens (such as at birth or later in life), the evidence we need to collect from the respondent, the need to validate the respondent’s identity, and the different modes available (including paper applications, electronic, and in-person interviews). The instruments and modes we use to collect data for original and replacement SSN cards include: • Form SS-5/SS-5-FS – The agency uses this paper application to collect data to request an original and replacement Social Security number (SSN) card or a change or correct information on a social security number record. All respondents can use this form and submit it in person at a field office or Foreign Benefits Unit. Form SS-5-FS collects the same information as the SS-5 but includes separate instructions for respondents who are responding to the information collection overseas. An overseas respondent could submit an SS-5, but the SS-5-FS’s instructions are likely more relevant to them than those on the SS-5. • Social Security Number Application Process (SSNAP) – SSA technicians use this web based, Intranet application internally to collect and store SS-5 data during an in office interview with respondents. • Enumeration at Birth (EAB) – for newborns, a hospital, birthing center, or licensed midwife collects and submits information to SSA under the EAB process. The vast majority of applications for original SSN cards utilize EAB. In this process, parents of newborns provide information required to register newborns. This information is sent to State Bureaus of Vital Statistics (BVS) who send the information to SSA’s National Computer Center. SSA uses the information to assign a newborn an SSN and issue a Social Security Card. EAB also includes SSA receipt of race and ethnicity information for the newborn and parent(s) if the parent(s) consent to release of this voluntary information. With parental consent, States and Jurisdictions ask questions to collect a newborn’s race and ethnicity information. If the parent(s) give consent, the State BVS electronically shares the race and ethnicity of parent(s) and newborn, consistent with the EAB process. State BVS send the information electronically to SSA’s National Computer Center through data-matching agreements. SSA uploads the data to the SSA mainframe along with all other enumeration data and assigns the newborn a Social Security number (SSN) and issue a Social Security card. • Online Social Security Number Application Process (oSSNAP) – The Online Social Security Number Application Process (oSSNAP) is a streamlined Internet application that collects information similar to the paper SS-5 form. Depending on the applicant and their reason for applying, oSSNAP supports either a partially automated or fully automated Social Security Number (SSN) card processing experience. The respondents for this information collection are applicants for original and replacement Social Security cards, or individuals who wish to change information in their SSN records, who use any of the modalities described above.

Hazardous Materials Program Requirements (Previously Hazardous Materials Training Requirements)

Key Information

Abstract

As prescribed in Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) parts 121 and 135, the FAA requires certificate holders to submit hazardous materials (hazmat) procedures and information (sometimes referred to as hazmat manuals) and hazmat training programs as a part of the FAA’s certification process. In addition, revisions to an approved hazmat training program must be submitted following certification to obtain initial and final approval as part of the FAA’s certification process. Revisions to an accepted manual may be requested following certification. Initial certification is completed in accordance with 14 CFR part 119. Continuing certification is completed in accordance with 14 CFR parts 121 and 135. The FAA uses the certification process to review the certificate holder’s hazmat manual and training programs for compliance with the applicable regulations, national policies, and safe operating practices. It also ensures that the documents adequately establish safe operating procedures. Additionally, 14 CFR part 145 requires certain repair stations to provide documentation showing that persons handling hazmat for transportation have been trained in accordance with 49 CFR parts 171 through 180. The submission of this documentation is covered in this information collection.

[Medicaid] Medical Necessity and Contract Amendments Under Mental Health Parity (CMS-10556)

Key Information

Abstract

The final rule amends the Medicaid and CHIP regulations to implement the Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act of 2008 (MHPAEA). MHPAEA is a federal law that generally prevents group health plans and health insurance issuers that provide mental health or substance use disorder (MH/SUD) benefits from imposing less favorable benefit limitations on those benefits than on medical/surgical benefits. The final rule applies mental health parity requirements to Medicaid Managed Care Organizations (MCOs), Section 1937 Alternative Benefit Plans (ABPs), and the CHIP. The final rule also contains provisions related to the disclosure of information related to the reason for denial of reimbursement or payment for MH/SUD benefits. The text only clarifies the expectations for disclosing information concerning the denial of reimbursement or payment for MH/SUD benefits. It does not impose any new or revised third-party disclosure requirements.

Submissions of 1135 Waiver Request Automated Process (CMS-10752)

Key Information

Abstract

Waivers under Section 1135 of the Social Security Act (the Act) and certain flexibilities allow the CMS to relax certain requirements, known as the Conditions of Participation (CoPs) or Conditions of Coverage to promote the health and safety of beneficiaries. Under Section 1135 of the Act, the Secretary may temporarily waive or modify certain Medicare, Medicaid, and Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP) requirements to ensure that sufficient health care services are available to meet the needs of individuals enrolled in Social Security Act programs in the emergency area and time periods. These waivers ensure that providers who provide such services in good faith can be reimbursed and exempted from sanctions. During emergencies, such as the current COVID-19 public health emergency (PHE), CMS must be able to apply program waivers and flexibilities under section 1135 of the Social Security Act, in a timely manner to respond quickly to unfolding events. In a disaster or emergency, waivers and flexibilities assist health care providers/suppliers in providing timely healthcare and services to people who have been affected and enables states, Federal districts, and U.S. territories to ensure Medicare and/or Medicaid beneficiaries have continued access to care. During disasters and emergencies, it is not uncommon to evacuate Medicare-participating facilities and relocate patients/residents to other provider settings or across state lines, especially, during hurricane and tornado events. CMS must collect relevant information for which a provider is requesting a waiver or flexibility to make proper decisions about approving or denying such requests. Collection of this data aids in the prevention of gaps in access to care and services before, during, and after an emergency. CMS must also respond to inquiries related to a PHE from providers and beneficiaries. CMS is not collecting information from these inquiries; we are merely responding to them.

National Geological and Geophysical Data Preservation Program (NGGDPP)

Key Information

Abstract

The USGS NGGDPP offers financial support to State geological agencies to create metadata that will describe sample sites for State geological surveys that have related site-specific data resources. The purpose of these data collections are to preserve and provide access to samples (and any related data) that have been extracted from the earth to improve the breadth of information that can be used to inform science and decision-making now and in the future. The USGS envisions a national network of cooperating geoscience materials and data repositories that are operated independently yet guided by common standards, procedures, and protocols for metadata. The holdings of all collections will be widely accessible through a common and mirrored Internet-based catalog, the National Digital Catalog. The holdings of the individual repositories will complement each other to preserve the geoscience assets of the Nation and serve as a comprehensive source of geoscience data and materials to serve national needs today and in the future.
