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.

Pesticide Environmental Stewardship Program Annual Measures Reporting (Renewal)
Key Information
Abstract
This information collection request (ICR) concerns EPA's voluntary Pesticide Environmental Stewardship Program (PESP). The program uses the information collected under this ICR approval to establish partner membership, develop stewardship strategies, measure progress towards stewardship goals, and award incentives. The PESP is an EPA partnership program implemented by the Office of Pesticide Programs (OPP) established in 1994. Its goal is to promote environmental stewardship to protect human health and the environment. PESP encourages the use of integrated pest management (IPM) strategies to reduce pests and pesticide risks through partnerships with entities among the pesticide user community. IPM is an approach that involves making the best choices from among a series of pest management practices. It allows for economical pest management, and does so with the least possible hazard to people, property, and the environment. |

ACCESS, EXCHANGE, AND USE OF SOCIAL DETERMINANTS OF HEALTH DATA IN CLINICAL NOTES
Key Information
Abstract
The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), Office of the Secretary, Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ONC), promotes the access, exchange, and use of electronic health information to improve health care. There are ongoing efforts to determine what types of information should be recorded in patients’ electronic medical records and how that information can be utilized to improve health and healthcare. Data reflecting Social Determinants of Health (SDOH) – the conditions in which people live, learn, work, and play – is limited across healthcare yet is vital to collect and understand for both individual care and public health. There is a growing recognition that by capturing and accessing SDOH data during the course of care, providers can more easily address non-clinical factors, such as food, housing, and transportation insecurities, which can have a profound impact on a person's overall health. The 21st Century Cures Act (Cures Act) requires HHS and ONC to improve the interoperability of health information. ONC's Cures Act final rule identifies important data elements that should be made electronically available and exchanged through the use of health information technology (IT). In support of these efforts, ONC seeks to better understand patients’ and health care providers’ knowledge of SDOH, how SDOH data are currently documented in the electronic health record and how this information is used in patient care. Additionally, ONC seeks to understand challenges experienced and preferences for SDOH data collection, sharing and utilization from both the provider and patient perspectives. A series of 20 focus groups, a mix of asynchronous (discussion board) and synchronous (live), will be conducted among groups of healthcare professionals (10 groups) and patients/care partners (10 groups), representing various backgrounds, demographics, and healthcare professions, to learn more about their experiences and thoughts relating to the capture and utilization of SDOH data. A prescreening questionnaire will be sent to 1,500 individuals and 200 of those 1,500 people will be chosen to participate in the focus groups. Each individual will participate in one 90-minute focus group. This is a 3-year request for OMB approval. |

Survey on Usage and Functionality of Smoke Alarms and Carbon Monoxide Alarms (SCOA) in US Households
Key Information
Abstract
The purpose of the SCOA survey is to collect data that will assist CPSC with better estimation of the number and types of smoke and CO alarms installed in US households, the proportion of working smoke and CO alarms, the characteristics of residences and residents where the smoke and CO alarms are not operational, perceptions of residents related to the cause of “false” alarms or causes of faulty alarms, consumer hazard awareness, and consumer behavior related to alarm use and smoke and CO hazards. The information collected from this survey will allow CPSC to provide an updated national estimate of operability of smoke alarms and CO alarms based on direct observation. It will also allow us to create a demographic profile of groups that do not have operable smoke alarms and/or CO alarms. This includes measures from the perspective of household members lacking operable alarms as to why they lack functional alarms. This will allow for better targeting of policy, messaging and interventions to improve the operability rate of these alarms. It will also provide insights as to the kinds of alarms that are present to determine whether one variety or another is more likely to be inoperable as well as provide some measure as to the age of alarms in households. Results of the survey will inform CPSC of recommendations to state/local jurisdictions related to codes, standards, and/or regulations of smoke and CO alarms. The information can help improve the voluntary standard for carbon monoxide alarm, UL 2034 , and guide state and local jurisdictions for the use and installation of CO alarms. While the installation codes for the two products, especially as required by states or local jurisdictions, are different, it was determined that the information collection regarding these two products could be combined in one survey as a means of optimizing resources and reducing burden. |

Annual Alternative Fuel Vehicle Acquisition Report for State Government and Alternative Fuel Provider Fleets
Key Information
Abstract
The information is critical to allowing DOE to determine: (1) whether alternative fuel provider and State government fleets are in compliance with the alternative fueled vehicle acquisition mandates of Sections 501 and 507(o) of the Energy Policy Act of 1992; (2) whether such fleets should be allocated credits under Section 508, and (3) whether those fleets that opted into the alternative compliance program under Section 514 are in compliance with applicable requirements. Regulated entities, being covered State and alternative fuel provider fleets, provide this information. Because DOE has the authority under Section 512 to impose civil penalties and fines on violators, information collection is essential to determine whether alternative fuel provider and State government fleets are in compliance with the various statutory and regulatory provisions. |

Manufacturing Extension Partnership (MEP) Management Information Reporting
Key Information
Abstract
The MEP Centers’ primary mission is to strengthen the global competitiveness of U.S.-based manufacturing by providing information, decision support, and implementation assistance to smaller manufacturing firms in adopting new, more advanced manufacturing technologies, techniques, and business best practices. Almost 1,700 knowledgeable specialists provide technical and business assistance. NIST MEP provides funding to the Centers through Cooperative Agreements. To ensure that Cooperative Agreement recipients are effectively disseminating the most current technical and business solutions to small and medium-sized manufacturers in the United States, MEP will collect and analyze information from the MEP Centers. MEP is mandated to collect this information by the regulations governing the operation of the MEP program (15 CFR 290, 291, and 292) and the Government Performance and Results Act of 1993 (GPRA, 5 CFR 1320). The advent of H.R. 1274 – Section 2 (Manufacturing Extension Partnership Program Center Extension) effectively removes the “Sunset Provisions” on the original MEP regulations (15 CFR 290, 291, and 292), and has made MEP a permanent investor in the Centers with the need to collect evaluative and informative data. |
