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.

Generic Information Collection Plan for the Collection of Qualitative Feedback on Bureau Service Delivery
Key Information
Abstract
This generic information collection plan provides for the collection of qualitative feedback from consumers, financial institutions, and stakeholders on a wide range of services the Bureau provides in an efficient, timely manner, in accordance with the Bureau's commitment to improving service delivery. By qualitative feedback, the Bureau means information that provides useful insights on, for example, comprehension, usability, perceptions, and opinions, but are not statistical surveys that yield quantitative results that can be generalized to the population of study. The Bureau expects this feedback to include insights into consumer, financial institution, or stakeholder perceptions, experiences, and expectations, provide an early warning of issues with service, or focus attention on areas where communication, training or changes in operations might improve delivery of products or services. These collections will allow for ongoing, collaborative, and actionable communications between the Bureau and consumers, financial institutions, and stakeholders. It will also allow feedback to contribute directly to the improvement of program management. |

NSPS for Surface Coating of Plastic Parts for Business Machines (40 CFR part 60, subpart TTT) (Renewal)
Key Information
Abstract
The New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) for Surface Coating of Plastic Parts for Business Machines (40 CFR Part 60 Subpart TTT) were proposed on January 8, 1986, promulgated on January 29, 1988, and amended on October 17, 2000. These regulations apply to new facilities that perform industrial surface coating operations on plastic parts for use in the manufacture of business machines: each spray booth that applies prime coats, color coats, texture coats or touch-up coats. New facilities include those that commenced construction, modification, or reconstruction after the date of proposal. This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR Part 60, Subpart TTT. In general, all NSPS standards require initial notifications, performance tests, and periodic reports by the owners/operators of the affected facilities. They are also required to maintain records of the occurrence and duration of any startup, shutdown, or malfunction in the operation of an affected facility, or any period during which the monitoring system is inoperative. These notifications, reports, and records are essential in determining compliance, and are required of all affected facilities subject to NSPS. |

FERC Form No. 6-Q, Quarterly Report of Oil Pipeline Companies
Key Information
Authorizing Statutes
Abstract
The Interstate Commerce Act (ICA) authorizes the Commission to make investigations, collect, and record data in order to carry out certain necessary and useful provisions. The information collected from oil pipeline companies under the requirements of the FERC Form No. 6-Q provide the Commission the ability to implement the statutory provisions of the ICA including the authority to prescribe rules, regulations concerning accounts, records, memoranda as necessary. The ICA also allows the Commission to prescribe a system of accounts for jurisdictional companies and (after notice) and opportunity for hearing to determine the accounts in which particular outlays and receipts can be entered, charged, or credited. The financial accounting and reporting provides needed information concerning a FERC Form No. 6-Q company’s past performance and its future prospects. Without reliable financial statements (prepared in accordance with the Commission’s Uniform Systems of Accounts), the Commission would be unable to accurately determine the costs that related to a particular time period, service, or line of business. Additionally, it would be more difficult for the Commission to determine if a certain entity was previously provided the opportunity to recover its costs via rates or to compare how the financial performance of one regulated entity relates to another. The FERC Form No. 6-Q assists the Commission in overseeing and policing the regulated oil pipeline markets to assist in enforcing the ICA. |

Key Information
Authorizing Statutes
Abstract
The Commission uses the FERC Form Nos. 6 and 6-Q to gather firm specific information for oil pipeline companies. Data from FERC Form No. 6 facilitates the calculation of the actual rate of return on equity for oil pipelines. The actual rate of return on equity is particularly useful information when evaluating a pipeline’s rates. Additionally, the Commission uses data on page 301 of FERC Form No. 6 to compute annual charges which are then assessed against oil pipeline companies to recover the Commission's annual costs as mandated by Order No. 472. |

Affordable Care Act Grandfathered Health Plan Disclosure, Recordkeeping Requirement, and Change in Carrier Disclosure
Key Information
Abstract
The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, Public Law 111-148, (the Affordable Care Act) was enacted by President Obama on March 23, 2010. Section 1251 of the Act provides that certain plans and health insurance coverage in existence as of March 23, 2010, known as grandfathered health plans, are not required to comply with certain statutory provisions in the Act. The final regulations implementing the grandfathered plan provision of the Affordable Care Act (29 CFR 2590.715-1251(a)(2)) requires a grandfathered health plan to include a statement in any plan material provided to participants or beneficiaries stating the plan's intent to be a grandfathered health plan within the meaning of §1251 of the Act. To maintain its status as a grandfathered health plan, the final regulations (29 CFR 2590.715-1251(a)(3)) require the plan or issuer to maintain records documenting the terms of the plan or health insurance coverage in effect on March 23, 2010, and any other documents that are necessary to verify, explain or clarify status as a grandfathered health plan. The plan or issuer must make such records available for examination upon request by participants, beneficiaries, individual policy subscribers, or a State or Federal agency official. |

Affordable Care Act Advance Notice of Rescission
Key Information
Abstract
The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (the Affordable Care Act) was enacted on March 23, 2010. Section 2712 of the PHS Act, as added by the Affordable Care Act, and the Department's final regulation (26 CFR 54.9815-2712, 29 CFR 2590.715-2712, 45 CFR 147.2712) provides rules regarding rescissions of health coverage for group health plans and health insurance issuers offering group or individual health insurance coverage. Under the statute and the final regulations, a group health plan, or a health insurance issuer offering group or individual health insurance coverage, generally must not rescind coverage except in the case of fraud or an intentional misrepresentation of a material fact. This standard applies to all rescissions, whether in the group or individual insurance market, or self-insured coverage. These rules also apply regardless of any contestability period of the plan or issuer. PHS Act section 2712 adds a new advance notice requirement when coverage is rescinded where still permissible. Specifically, the second sentence in section 2712 provides that coverage may not be cancelled unless prior notice is provided, and then only as permitted under PHS Act sections 2702(c) and 2742(b). Under the final regulations, even if prior notice is provided, rescission is only permitted in cases of fraud or an intentional misrepresentation of a material fact as permitted under the cited provisions |
