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, modify, or discontinue 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.

Abstract
SSA uses Form SSA-781 to determine if non-custodial parents who file for spouse, mother’s, father’s, or surviving divorced mother’s or father’s benefits based on having a child in their care, meet the “in-care” requirements.

NSPS for Emission Guidelines and Compliance Times for Small Municipal Waste Combustion Units Constructed on or before August 30, 1999 (40 CFR part 60, subpart BBBB) (Renewal)
Key Information
Abstract
The Emission Guidelines and Compliance Times for Small Municipal Waste Combustion Units Constructed on or Before August 30, 1999 were originally promulgated in December 1995, but were vacated by the Federal Court in March 1997. Subsequently, the Emission Guidelines were re-proposed on August 30, 1999; and promulgated on December 6, 2000. The Emission Guidelines regulate organics (dioxin/furans), metals (cadmium, lead, mercury), particulate matter, and acid gases (hydrogen chloride, sulfur dioxide, and nitrogen oxides) for small Municipal Waste Combustion (MWC) units. Small MWC units are MWC units with capacities to combust greater than 35 tons per day (tpd) and less than 250 tons per day (tpd) of municipal solid waste. The Emission Guidelines contain monitoring, reporting, and record-keeping requirements that are to be included in state plans. If a State/Local Agency does not develop, adopt, and submit an approvable State plan, then facilities in that state are subject to the Federal Plan (Federal Plan Requirements for Small Municipal Waste Combustion Units Constructed On or Before August 30, 1999 (40 CFR Part 62, Subpart JJJ)), adopted on January 31, 2003. The Federal Plan implements the emission guidelines in jurisdictions that have not developed an approved State Plan. These regulations do not directly apply to small MWC unit owners and operators. However, MWC unit owners and operators must comply with either the State or Federal plans to implement the emission guidelines contained in this Subpart. This ICR identifies the burden to both respondents (owners or operators of small MWC units) and the Designated Administrator (either state/local agencies or the Federal government) to implement the emission guidelines imposed by the State plans. This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR Part 60, Subpart BBBB. |

Training Plans, New Miner Training, Newly-hired Experienced Miner Training
Key Information
Abstract
Training informs miners of safety and health hazards inherent in the workplace and enables them to identify and avoid such hazards. Training becomes even more important in light of certain conditions that can exist when production demands increase, such as: an influx of new and less experienced miners and mine operators; longer work hours to meet production demands; and increased demand for contractors who may be less familiar with the dangers on mine property. In addition, with respect to miner health and safety training, Section 115(c) of the Mine Act, 30 U.S.C. 825(c) provides that, upon completion of each training each operator shall certify that the miner has received the specified training in each subject area of the approved health and safety training plan (this information requirement is covered in control number 1205-0009) ; paragraphs (d) and (e) address the Secretary of Labor's rulemaking authority with respect to miner training. MSHA's objective in these existing health and safety training requirements is to ensure that all miners receive the required training, which would result in a decrease in accidents, injuries, and fatalities. MSHA enforces training requirements at approximately 11,657 surface nonmetal mines and contractors. |

Agreement Approval Process for Use of Functional Affirmative Action Programs
Key Information
Abstract
The regulations implementing Executive Order 11246 permit Federal supply and service contractors to develop affirmative action programs (AAPs) that are based on business functions or business units rather than AAPs based on establishments. Functional affirmative action programs (FAAPs) are designed to provide contractors with the option of creating AAPs that better fit their business needs. To develop and implement a FAAP, Federal contractors must receive written approval from the Director of OFCCP. This Information Collection Request addresses the collection of information associated with the process for obtaining, modifying, updating, and renewing an agreement that allows contractors to develop and use FAAPs. |

| 202205-0990-002 | Understanding Economic Risk for Families with Low Incomes: Economic Security, Program Benefits, and Decisions About Work | HHS/HHSDM | 2022-05-26 | Active | New collection (Request for a new OMB Control Number)
Understanding Economic Risk for Families with Low Incomes: Economic Security, Program Benefits, and Decisions About Work
Key Information
Abstract
This information collection request is for a new project. The research team is requesting two years of approval. The purpose of this project is to understand the role of economic risk in public benefit recipients’ decision making about whether to increase earnings. This study will investigate the factors that influence the decisions made by people with low incomes to increase earnings (or not) by presenting beneficiaries with vignettes about other people with the opportunity to increase their earnings and asking them what decision they would make in similar circumstances. The vignettes will vary the risk of an opportunity, the ease of regaining benefits if income later dropped, and the extent of the earnings increase. The job opportunities and associated risks will vary systematically. The choices that study participants recommend will provide insight into the relative importance of these different factors – both alone and in combination. Guided by a better understanding of the role of risk and risk tolerance in families’ decisions about work, the government could design policy levers to reduce risk and thereby support families’ choices to increase earnings and achieve greater economic security. |

Requirement for Airlines and Operators to Collect and Transmit Designated Information for Passengers and Crew Arriving Into the United States
Key Information
Abstract
In order to control the introduction, transmission, and spread of communicable diseases, such as COVID-19, into the United States, the collection of traveler contact information helps ensure that CDC and state and local health authorities are able to identify and locate persons arriving in, or transmitting through, the United States from a foreign country who may have been exposed to a communicable disease abroad. State, local, and territorial public health departments can use this information to connect with travelers who arrive in their jurisdictions infectious with or exposed to a communicable disease in order to monitor travelers for symptoms as needed. This Extension ICR is submitted to permit the continued collection of data from travelers to effectively make and enforce regulations necessary to prevent the spread of communicable diseases in the United States. |
