Information Collection Request (ICR) Tracker
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.

NRC ONLINE FORM, “REQUEST FOR ALTERNATIVE UNDER 10 CFR Part 50.55a(z)(1) and (2)"
Key Information
Abstract
10 CFR 50.55a incorporates by reference Division 1 rules of Section III, "Rules for Construction of Nuclear Power Plant Components," and Section XI, "Rules for Inservice Inspection of Nuclear Power Plant Components," of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code (B&PV Code); and the rules of the ASME “Code for Operation and Maintenance of Nuclear Power Plants” (OM Code). These rules of the ASME B&PV and OM Codes set forth the requirements to which nuclear power plant components are designed, constructed, tested, repaired, and inspected. The ability of licensed facilities to comply with these requirements may be negatively impacted by the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) Public Health Emergency (PHE) in order to not conflict with practices recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to limit the spread of COVID-19 (e.g., social distancing) while performing in-service testing and inspections.To facilitate licensees’ requests for alternatives to the requirements in the above regulations, the NRC is providing an online form to submit the required information for a specific alternative request. |

Railroad Locomotive Safety Standards and Event Recorders
Key Information
Abstract
The Locomotive Inspection Act requires railroads to inspect, repair, and maintain locomotives and event recorders so that they are safe, free from defects, and can be placed in service without peril to life. Crashworthy locomotive event recorders provide FRA with verifiable factual information about how trains are maintained and operated, and will be used by FRA and State inspectors for Part 229 rule enforcement. This collection of information is mandatory, and affects Class I, Class II, Class III, and passenger and commuter railroads operating on the general system of transportation in the United States. The required information is collected daily, quarterly, annually, and on occasion. Information collected includes both reporting and record keeping information, data about locomotives not complying with the requirements of this Part, data about remote control locomotives, accident reports, locomotive daily inspection and repair records, written reports about Multiple Unit (MU) locomotives, and readout information from locomotive event recorders. FRA uses the information collected to monitor and enforce the requirements of this Part, particularly to monitor the daily operations of trains and ensure that locomotives placed in service are safe to operate and undergo the required daily, periodic, and annual inspections. The information collected is also used by railroads and train crews to monitor train handling and improve safety on an ongoing basis. |

Northeast Region Observer Providers Requirements
Key Information
Abstract
This is a request for revision pursuant to RIN 0648-BK68. Amendment 21 to the Atlantic Sea Scallop Fishery Management Plan (RIN: 0648-BK68) would make changes to the management of the Northern Gulf of Maine (NGOM) Management Area. Prior to Amendment 21, NGOM-permitted vessels were not required to carry observers. Amendment 21 would require that NGOM vessels call-in to the observer program and, when selected, procure and carry an observer. Expanding the observer call-in requirement to directed scallop fishing in the NGOM means that monitoring requirements will be consistent for all scallop permit types across the entirety of the Atlantic sea scallop resource within the US Exclusive Economic Zone. The information collections which are a result of Amendments 13 and 21 and Frameworks 19 and 24 are reporting requirements used by the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) and Northeast Fisheries Observer Program (NEFOP). Amendment 13 to the Atlantic Sea Scallop (scallop) Fishery Management Plan (FMP) implemented an industry funded observer program which included reporting requirements for both observer service providers, as well as the scallop fishing industry. Frameworks 19 and 24 further revised the scallop observer program and implemented additional information collection requirements to allow for more effective administration of the program. |

Key Information
Authorizing Statutes
Pub.L. 107 - 56 1012 (View Law) 49 USC 521 (View Law) Pub.L. 99 - 570 100 (View Law) Pub.L. 106 - 159 215 (View Law) 49 USC 31309 (View Law) 49 USC 31106 (View Law) Abstract
Responding to this collection is mandatory. The entities that must respond are commercial driver’s license (CDL) drivers and State driver licensing agencies (SDLAs). The CDL driver discloses convictions and disqualifications, as well as discloses employment history to the employer. The CDL driver reports by completing a CDL application form, as well as a knowledge and skills test. The SDLA records medical examiner’s certification and self- certification of CMV operations. The SDLA verifies medical certification status and there is an annual State certification of compliance. The State participates in annual program reviews and does recordkeeping for knowledge and skills tests. The State certifies the knowledge and skills test examiner, as well as monitors and audits the examiner. State officials use the information collected on the license application form that is posted to the CDLIS driver record, the information collected on the CLP application form that is posted to the CDLIS driver record and the conviction and disqualification data posted to the CDLIS driver record to prevent ineligible, not-qualified and/or disqualified CLP and CDL holders and applicants from operating CMVs on the nation's highways. State officials are also required to administer knowledge and skills tests to CDL driver applicants. During State CDL compliance reviews, FMCSA officials review this information to ensure that the provisions of the regulations are being carried out. Without these requirements, there would be no uniform control over driver licensing practices to prevent uncertified and/or disqualified drivers from being issued a CLP or CDL and to prevent unsafe drivers from spreading their convictions among several licenses in several States and remaining behind the wheel of a CMV. Failure to collect this information would render the regulations unenforceable. FMCSA reviews information submitted by the States and conducts reviews, audits, and investigations of each State as it deems necessary to make compliance determinations for all States and the District of Columbia. This information helps FMCSA ensure that drivers, motor carriers, and the States are complying with the notification and recordkeeping requirements for information related to testing, licensing, violations, convictions, and disqualifications. If this information were not available, the FMCSA would have no means of independently verifying State compliance. |

National Registry of Pipeline and LNG Operators
Key Information
Abstract
The National Registry of Pipeline and LNG Operators serves as the storehouse for the reporting requirements for an operator regulated or subject to reporting requirements under 49 CFR Parts 192, 193, or 195. This mandatory information collection would require jurisdictional pipeline operators to submit the required data to register with the National Registry of Pipeline and LNG Operators and notify PHMSA when they experience significant asset changes, including new construction, that affect PHMSA’s ability to accurately monitor and assess pipeline safety performance. Certain types of changes to, or within, an operator’s facilities or pipeline network represent potential safety-altering activities for which PHMSA may need to inspect, investigate, or otherwise oversee to ensure that any public safety concerns are adequately and proactively addressed. The forms for assigning and maintaining Operator Identification (OPID) information are the Operator Assignment Request Form (PHMSA F 1000.1) and Operator Registry Notification Form (PHMSA F 1000.2). The purpose of this information collection is to maintain an accurate assessment of the nation’s pipeline infrastructure and to be kept abreast of conditions that could potentially compromise the safety and economic viability of the U.S. pipeline system. Due to the provisions contained within the Safety of Gas Gathering Pipelines: Extension of Reporting Requirements, Regulation of Large, High-Pressure Lines, and Other Related Amendments final rule, gas gathering pipeline operators must now request OPIDs due to the repeal of the reporting exception for gathering pipelines other than regulated gathering lines as determined in § 192.8. PHMSA plans to adjust the burden for this information collection to account for this addition to the reporting community. |
