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.
Federal agencies are required to submit an ICR whenever they create, renew, or 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.
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.

Law Enforcement Officers (LEOs) Flying Armed
Key Information
Abstract
In order to allow Law Enforcement Officers (LEOs) to fly armed, TSA established a specialized screening process for Federal, State, local, and tribal LEO needing to access the sterile area of the airport when they are going to fly armed. To document such LEO movements, TSA’s specialized screening procedures require the LEO to complete TSA Form 413A, Checkpoint Sign-In Log. This real-time situational awareness is necessary in the event of a contingency on board the aircraft, such as but not limited to, a disruptive passenger, air piracy, or other threat to the safety and security of a commercial aircraft. |

Pub.L. 111 - 203 124 Stat. 1376 (2010) (View Law) 7 USC 6d(d) and 6s(k) (View Law) Abstract
On April 3, 2012, the Commission adopted Commission Regulation 3.3 (Chief Compliance Officer) under sections 4d(d) and 4s(k) of the Commodity Exchange Act (“CEA”). Commission Regulation 3.3 requires each futures commission merchant (“FCM”), swap dealer (“SD”), and major swap participant (“MSP”) to designate, by filing a form 8-R, a chief compliance officer who is responsible for developing and administering policies and procedures that fulfill certain duties of the FCM, SD, or MSP and that are reasonably designed to ensure the registrant’s compliance with the CEA and Commission regulations; establishing procedures for the remediation of noncompliance issues identified by the chief compliance officer; establishing procedures for the handling, management response, remediation, retesting, and closing of noncompliance issues; preparing, signing, certifying and filing with the Commission an annual compliance report that contains the information specified in the regulations; amending the annual report if material errors or omissions are identified; and maintaining records of the registrant’s compliance policies and procedures and records related to the annual report. The information collection obligations imposed by Commission Regulation 3.3 are essential to ensuring that FCMs, SDs, and MSPs maintain comprehensive policies and procedures that promote compliance with the CEA and Commission regulations. In particular, the Commission believes that, among other things, these obligations (i) promote compliance behavior through periodic self-evaluation, (ii) inform the Commission of possible compliance weaknesses, (iii) assist the Commission in determining whether the registrant remains in compliance with the CEA and Commission regulations, and (iv) help the Commission to assess whether the registrant has mechanisms in place to adequately address compliance problems that could lead to a failure of the registrant. |

Reporting, Recordkeeping, and Daily Trading Records Requirements for Swap Dealers and Major Participants.
Key Information
Abstract
Section 731 of Title VII of the Dodd-Frank Act amended the Commodity Exchange Act (CEA) to add section 4s(f) and 4s(g) which establish certain reporting, recordkeeping, and daily trading records requirements for swap dealers (SDs) and major swap participants (MSPs). Specifically, section 4s(f) authorizes the Commission to promulgate books and records and reporting requirements for SDs and MSPs. It also expressly obligates SDs and MSPs to maintain records of all activities related to their swaps businesses and to make reports regarding their transactions, positions and financial condition, as required by such regulations. Section 4s(g) requires SDs and MSPs to maintain daily trading records of their swaps that contain any information prescribed by Commission regulations; all related records (including records of related cash and forward transactions); all recorded communications (including electronic mail, instant messages, and recordings of telephone calls); and a complete audit trail for conducting comprehensive and accurate trade reconstruction. Section 4s(g) also requires that the daily trading records for each swap transaction be identifiable by transaction and by counterparty. |

Pub.L. 111 - 203 124 Stat. 1376 (2010) (View Law) 7 USC . 2(a), 21(b), and 2(h)(5)(B) (View Law) Abstract
The information is needed to ensure that the Commission and other regulators have access to complete data concerning swaps, as required by the Commodity Exchange Act as amended by the Dodd-Frank Act. The data would be reported to and maintained in swap data repositories, where it would not be disclosed publicly, but would be available to the Commission and other financial regulators for fulfillment of various regulatory mandates. The information is for use by government entities to provide oversight and supervision and to ensure compliance with statutes and regulations relating to swaps. Respondents are entities or persons who trade swaps. The Commission’s regulations in Part 46 require reporting counterparties to report data for pre-enactment swap and transition swaps to SDRs. The SDRs provide this data to the Commission directly. The Commission uses this data in connection with fulfilling its regulatory duties. |

The initial IC under the collection—regulations governing designated contract markets (DCMs)—found in part 38 of the Commission’s rules— were adopted pursuant to the Commodity Futures Modernization Act of 2000, which amended section 5 of the CEA to impose requirements concerning the registration and operation of DCMs. The DCM statutory framework subsequently was revised as a result of further amendments to the CEA under Title VII of the Dodd-Frank Act. Part 38 of the Commission’s regulations governs the activities of DCMs. The information collected under part 38 is used by the Commission to evaluate whether entities operating as, or applying to become, DCMs complied with its requirements. Information generated by the collection’s second IC provides the means for the Commission to prevent unauthorized usage of customer funds by FCMs while also providing modifications to existing rules respecting DCMs. The provisions obligate DCMs to comply with additional requirements for self-regulatory organizations, including the requirements to adopt enhanced examination procedures and have examination programs reviewed by an examinations expert and periodically file data with the Commission; information that is used by the Commission to maintain oversight by identifying problematic financial matters in time to avoid market disruptions, and avoid tie-up of customer funds. Under the collection’s third IC, the Commission uses the information to enhance its oversight by adopting the System Safeguards and Cybersecurity Testing Final Rulemaking, which requires DCMs to provide the Commission with annual trading volume information. Specifically, the trading volume information assists the Commission in its application of the enhanced system safeguard and cybersecurity testing requirements for DCMs. |

Program for the International Assessment of Adult Competencies (PIAAC) Cycle II 2022 Main Study
Key Information
Abstract
The Program for the International Assessment of Adult Competencies (PIAAC) is a cyclical, large-scale study of adult skills and life experiences focusing on education and employment. PIAAC is an international study designed to assess adults in different countries over a broad range of abilities, from simple reading to complex problem-solving skills, and to collect information on individuals’ skill use and background. The U.S. will administer the PIAAC 2022 assessment to a nationally representative sample of adults, along with a background questionnaire with questions about their education background, work history, the skills they use on the job and at home, their civic engagement, and sense of their health and well-being. The results are used to compare the skills capacities of the workforce-aged adults in participating countries, and to learn more about relationships between educational background, employment, and other outcomes. PIAAC is coordinated by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) and developed by participating countries with the support of the OECD. In the United States, the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES), within the U.S. Department of Education (ED) conducts PIAAC. NCES has contracted with Westat to administer the PIAAC Cycle II Field Test data collection in the U.S. The United States participated in the PIAAC Main Study data collection in 2012 and conducted national supplement data collections in 2014 and 2017. All three of these collections are part of PIAAC Cycle I, in which 39 countries participated (24 countries in 2012, 9 new countries in 2014, and 5 more new countries in 2017) with close to 200,000 adults assessed across the 39 countries over the three data collections. A new PIAAC cycle is to be conducted internationally every 10 years, and PIAAC Cycle II Main Study data collection will be conducted from September 2022 through April 2023. In preparation for the main study collection, PIAAC Cycle II began with an Operational Field Test in 2021, in which 34 countries are expected to participate with the primary goal of testing the PIAAC 2022 planned operations. In recognition of the continuing global pandemic OECD shifted the timeline of PIAAC Cycle II Field Test and Main Study. Originally, the Field Test was scheduled for 2020 and the Main Study for 2021. The first shift in timeline was to move the Field Test to 2021 and the Main Study to 2022. The second shift in the PIAAC Cycle II collection affected the timing and nature of the field test, which was operational only and included a reduced field test effort both in scope and in sampling. In addition, the reduced Operational Field Test shifted the timeline from April through June 2021 to June through August 2021. This submission describes the final plans for the administration of the PIAAC Cycle II 2022 Main Study. As the OECD is still working to finalize some materials for this study, the Appendices will be updated with final materials before the 30D public comment period. |
