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.

Transportation of Household Goods; Consumer Protection
Key Information
Abstract
The collections in this ICR are mandatory and consists mostly of recordkeeping and disclosure, where a motor carrier provides information when a consumer requests that a mover provide an estimate and when a consumer decides to have a particular mover transport household goods. Certain information will be transferred to the consumer for the consumer to educate himself/herself of his/her rights and responsibilities in commercial transactions with the mover. This is a revision to the ICR due to a final rule. FMCSA updates the regulations at 49 CFR 371 and 375 in a final rule titled “Implementation of Household Goods Working Group Recommendations” (87 FR 24431). The final rule makes various changes to the household goods regulations that the Household Goods Consumer Protection Working Group recommended to FMCSA. These proposed changes include further revisions to streamline FMCSA’s publication “Your Rights and Responsibilities When You Move” which would be incorporated in appendix A of the regulations, requiring “Your Rights and Responsibilities When You Move” to be provided along with the estimate, requiring new binding or non-binding estimates when an individual shipper tenders more goods or requests additional service instead of a revised estimate, allowing a motor carrier to provide a virtual survey and removing the 50-mile radius for when a survey is required, removing the requirement for an order for service and incorporating that document into the bill of lading, and other minor updates to increase the clarity of the regulations. These proposed changes are intended to reduce the paperwork burden on household goods motor carriers and reduce confusion for individual shippers. FMCSA will use the information provided by the shippers, when necessary, while conducting reviews, audits and investigations of carriers to determine if a carrier/mover is in compliance with the Federal requirements. If this collected information were not available, FMCSA would have no means of independently verifying compliance. The collected information will assist consumers in their commercial dealings with interstate motor carriers by enabling them to receive consumer protection materials electronically. FMCSA will use the information provided by the shippers, when necessary, while conducting reviews, audits and investigations of carriers to determine if a carrier/mover is in compliance with the Federal requirements. If this collected information were not available, FMCSA will have no means of independently verifying compliance. The frequency of the collection varies and is based on the number of moves and requests made, based on shippers needs, and is not a factor FMCSA or the carrier can control. The information is not collected more frequently than quarterly since the data is required only when services are requested by the consumer. This is to help the consumer understand each part of the commercial transaction and determine whether they are being defrauded or deceived by a mover. This supporting statement divides the burden into five collections roughly corresponding to the subsections in the HHG regulations in which the specific paperwork and record keeping requirements for HHG movers appear: • IC-1: Required Information for Prospective Individual Shippers • IC-2: Estimating Charges • IC-3: Pick Up of Shipments of Household Goods • IC-4: Transportation of Shipments • IC-5: Consumer Complaints |

Highly Migratory Species Tournament Registration and Reporting
Key Information
Abstract
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s (NOAA’s) National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) requests the approval of the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for an extension of the existing collection of information under OMB Control Number 0648-0323 for Atlantic Highly Migratory Species (HMS) Tournament Registration and Reporting. Fishing tournaments are defined as any fishing competition in which participants must register or otherwise enter or in which a prize or award is offered for catching or landing fish. Regulations at 50 CFR part 635.5(d) require that all fishing tournaments targeting HMS that are conducted out of ports in Atlantic coastal states, including Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands, must register with NMFS at least four weeks prior to the start of the event. These events must also report their catch and fishing effort, as measured by the number of participating vessels per day, by the seventh day following conclusion of the event. |

Transition and Postsecondary Programs for Students with Intellectual Disabilities (TPSID) Evaluation Protocol
Key Information
Abstract
In October 2020, the Institute for Community Inclusion (ICI), UMass Boston received a five-year cooperative agreement from the Office of Postsecondary Education to serve as the National Coordinating Center (NCC) for colleges and universities implementing inclusive higher education programs for students with intellectual disabilities, including 22 newly-funded model demonstration projects aimed at creating inclusive comprehensive transition and postsecondary programs for students with intellectual disabilities known as Transition and Postsecondary Programs for Students with Intellectual Disabilities (TPSIDs). To reduce respondent burden, the NCC has streamlined and simplified the previously approved evaluation system for the TPSID programs. The NCC will enhance the collection and analyses of longitudinal follow-up data from the new 22 TPSID model programs via an already developed and previously OMB approved evaluation system for the TPSID programs. The revised data collection system is part of an evaluation effort. The system will collect program data at the institutions from TPSID program staff via an online, secure data management system. |

Notice of Research Exception under the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act (CMS-10286)
Key Information
Abstract
Under the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act of 2008 (GINA), a plan or issuer may request (but not require) a genetic test in connection with certain research activities so long as such activities comply with specific requirements, including: (i) the research complies with 45 CFR part 46 or equivalent federal regulations and applicable State or local law or regulations for the protection of human subjects in research;, (ii) the request for the participant or beneficiary (or in the case of a minor child, the legal guardian of such beneficiary) is made in writing and clearly indicates that compliance with the request is voluntary and that non-compliance will have no effect on eligibility for benefits or premium or contribution amounts; and (iii) no genetic information collected or acquired will be used for underwriting purposes. The Secretary of Labor or the Secretary of Health and Human Services is required to be notified if a group health plan or health insurance issuer intends to claim the research exception permitted under Title I of GINA. Nonfederal governmental group health plans and issuers solely in the individual health insurance market or Medigap market will be required to file with the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS). The Notice of Research Exception under the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act is a model notice that can be completed by group health plans and health insurance issuers and filed with either the Department of Labor or CMS to comply with the notification requirement. |
