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.

Experimental Permits for Reusable Suborbital Rockets

Key Information

Abstract

All persons wishing to launch reusable suborbital rockets are subject to report to this information collection. FAA exercises authority to issue Experimental Permits for reusable suborbital rockets to authorize launches for the purpose of research and development, crew training and showing compliance with the regulations. The information to be collected includes data required for performing a safety review, which includes a technical assessment to determine if the applicant can launch a reusable suborbital rocket without jeopardizing public health and safety and the safety of property. This information collection requirement is intended for incorporating acquired data into the experimental permit, which then becomes binding on the launch or reentry operator. The applicant is required to report information that enables FAA to determine, before issuing a permit, if issuance of the experimental permit would jeopardize the foreign policy or national security interests of the U.S.

Medical History and Examination

Key Information

Abstract

The documents are necessary to the Foreign Service Act of 1980, as amended (22 U.S.C. 4084, 3901, 3984). They are used to document results of the Foreign Service Medical History and Examination for preemployment decisions. Every person who has been given a conditional offer of employment for Foreign Service with the Department of State (DOS) must be healthy and able to travel to post of assignment worldwide. Those who are not able to travel and serve world wide are not hired. Without these forms, DOS would not have a consistent and fair means to document that each new employee meets the medial criteria for world wide employment in the Foreign Service and family health care needs be met at overseas posts.

Time and Extent Applications for Nonprescription Drug Products

Key Information

Abstract

This information collection supports certain FDA regulations in 21 CFR part 330 regarding over-the-counter (OTC) human drugs and associated guidance. Specifically, our regulations in §§ 330.14 and 330.15 (21 CFR 330.14 and 330.15), established additional criteria and procedures for classifying OTC drugs as generally recognized as safe and effective and not misbranded. However, these regulations are not reflective of more-recently enacted statutory provisions that govern the regulation of OTC human drugs marketed without approved new drug applications, under the OTC drug review process, and accordingly, these regulations will be withdrawn. These regulations provided that OTC drug products introduced into the U.S. market after the OTC drug review began in 1972 and OTC drug products without any marketing experience in the United States could be evaluated under the OTC monograph system if the conditions (e.g., active ingredients) met certain ‘‘time and extent’’ criteria outlined in the regulations. The regulation in 21 CFR 330.14 allowed a sponsor to submit certain information to the Agency in a time and extent application (TEA) for use to determination the eligibility of a condition for consideration in the OTC monograph system.

Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation, 43 CFR 10

Key Information

Abstract

The Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA), enacted in 1990, requires museums to compile information regarding Native American cultural items in their possession or control and provide that information to lineal descendants, Indian tribes, and Native Hawaiian organizations using specific types of documentation (summaries, inventories, and notices). The implementing regulations, first promulgated in 1995, require that each museum provide one copy of each summary and inventory to the Secretary of the Interior, through the National Park Service (NPS). Notices prepared by museums are published in the Federal Register by the NPS. To date, 1,299 museums have provided summaries, inventories, and notices, as applicable, to the NPS. The collection of information requirements in this rule are prepared under the authorities granted in Secs. 5, 6, 7, and 8 of NAGPRA, 25 U.S.C. 3003, 3004, 3005, 3006. Collection of information during the conduct of administrative investigations of allegations of failure to comply under Sec. 9 of NAGPRA, 25 U.S.C. 3007, is exempt from the requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 3518 (c)(1)(B)(ii)).

Procedures for Transportation Drug and Alcohol Testing Program

Key Information

Abstract

Five of the Department of Transportation’s Operating Administrations (OA) – Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) – Federal Transit Administration (FTA) – Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) – and the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) and the United States Coast Guard (USCG) – require drug and alcohol testing for safety-sensitive employees in their regulated industries. With very few exceptions, however, all the drug and alcohol tests performed under the five OA and USCG regulations are conducted using a single source of drug and alcohol testing procedures – 49 CFR Part 40. The Office of the Secretary of Transportation (OST) is the proponent of Part 40. Part 40 requires the collection of information from a variety of transportation employers, employees and service agents. To ensure the required quality (e.g., privacy, accuracy and confidentiality) of the drug and alcohol testing services provided, OST requires documentation in the collection of urine, oral fluid, breath, and saliva specimens; screening and confirmation of specimen tests; the medical review of results; and the treatment recommendations for those refusing to test or for testing positive for drug use or alcohol misuse. Records related to these activities are to be maintained. This information is used by employers and Department representatives to ensure that those refusing or testing positive are removed from safety-sensitive functions, that program problems are immediately identified and corrected, that quality assurance efforts are working, that security and privacy measures are upheld, and that the fairness and credibility of the Department’s testing efforts are maintained. Also, the Management Information System data that is collected (via the MIS form) is used by each of the affected DOT Agencies when calculating their industry’s annual random drug and/or alcohol testing rate.
