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.

| 202006-2060-001 | NESHAP for Polyether Polyols Production (40 CFR part 63, subpart PPP) (Renewal) | EPA/OAR | 2020-06-04 | Active | Extension without change of a currently approved collection
NESHAP for Polyether Polyols Production (40 CFR part 63, subpart PPP) (Renewal)
Key Information
Abstract
The NESHAP for Polyether Polyols Production (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart PPP) were proposed on September 4, 1997; promulgated on June 1, 1999; and amended on March 27, 2014. These regulations apply to both new and existing facilities that engage in the manufacture of polyether polyols (including polyether mono-ols) and emit hazardous air pollutants (HAPs). Owners or operators of polyether polyols production facilities to which this regulation applies must either choose one of the compliance options described in the rule or install and monitor a specific control system that reduces HAP emissions to the compliance level. Respondents are also subject to sections of 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart A. 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 63, Subpart PPP. In general, all NESHAP 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 NESHAP. |

| 202003-2070-005 | TSCA Existing Chemical Risk Evaluation and Management - Generic ICR for Surveys (New) | EPA/OCSPP | 2020-06-04 | Active | New collection (Request for a new OMB Control Number)
TSCA Existing Chemical Risk Evaluation and Management - Generic ICR for Surveys (New)
Key Information
Abstract
The purpose of this ICR is to help fill data gaps for EPA’s risk evaluations and risk management of existing chemicals under section 6 of TSCA. In accordance with TSCA section 26, EPA must make TSCA section 6 risk evaluation and risk management decisions consistent with the best available science and based on the weight of the scientific evidence. To carry out its statutory obligations, EPA needs sufficient information about chemicals undergoing risk evaluation and risk management, including information related to the chemicals’ conditions of use, hazards, exposures, potentially exposed or susceptible subpopulations, health and environmental effects, benefits, reasonably ascertainable economic consequences, alternatives, and other information. The collection of such information is subject to TSCA’s strict statutory timeframes (set forth in section 6). Therefore, EPA is seeking approval for a generic information collection request (ICR) to conduct surveys of chemical users, processors, distributors, manufacturers (including importers), and recyclers, chemical waste handlers, consumers of chemical-containing products, employees who may be exposed to the chemical evaluated, state and local regulators, non-governmental organizations, industry experts, and knowledgeable members of the public (including potentially exposed or susceptible subpopulations) related to information collection for TSCA chemical risk evaluation and risk management. Surveys are defined as the collection of information from a common group through interviews or the application of questionnaires to a representative sample of that group. These information collection efforts are intended to supplement other reasonably available information on chemicals in commerce and will provide support for the Agency’s policy and regulatory activities regarding existing chemicals under TSCA section 6. By learning more about the conditions of use, hazards, exposures, potentially exposed or susceptible subpopulations, health and environmental effects, benefits, reasonably ascertainable economic consequences, alternatives, and other information for chemicals being evaluated or regulated, EPA would be able to more precisely and effectively carry out its risk evaluation and risk management obligations under TSCA. |

| 202006-2060-002 | NESHAP for Engine Test Cells/Stands (40 CFR part 63, subpart PPPPP) (Final Rule) | EPA/OAR | 2020-06-03 | Active | Revision of a currently approved collection
NESHAP for Engine Test Cells/Stands (40 CFR part 63, subpart PPPPP) (Final Rule)
Key Information
Abstract
The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for Engine Test Cells/Stands (40 CFR part 63, subpart PPPPP) apply to any existing, new, or reconstructed engine test cells/stands located at major source facilities that are used for testing internal combustion engines. An engine test cell/stand is defined as any apparatus used for testing uninstalled stationary or uninstalled mobile (motive) engines. A plant site is a major source of hazardous air pollutant (HAP) emissions if it emits or has the potential to emit any single HAP at a rate of 10 tons (9.07 megagrams) or more per year or any combination of HAPs at a rate of 25 tons (22.68 megagrams) or more per year. New and reconstructed facilities include those that commenced construction or reconstruction after May 14, 2002 (the date the NESHAP was proposed). In general, all NESHAP standards require initial notifications, performance tests, and periodic reports by the owners/operators of the affected facilities. These notifications, reports, and records are essential in determining compliance with 40 CFR part 63, subpart PPPPP and must be maintained for at least 5 years from the date on which it was generated. Currently, the NESHAP also requires owners/operators to maintain records of the occurrence and duration of any startup, shutdown, or malfunction (SSM) in the operation of an affected facility, or any period during which the monitoring system is inoperative. However, the EPA is finalizing amendments to the rule that eliminate the SSM exemption; remove the SSM plan and SSM recordkeeping requirements; and require electronic submittal of performance test results. |

Coastal and Marine Ecological Classification Standard Solicitation for Revisions
Key Information
Abstract
In 2012, the Federal Geographic Data Committee (FGDC) endorsed the Coastal and Marine Ecological Classification Standard (CMECS) as the National standard for classifying and characterizing coastal and marine habitats. The FGDC requires regular review and maintenance of National standards to keep them consistent with advancements in technology. The Solicitation for Revisions form for the CMECS will provide standard managers with the necessary data and information to make these mandatory revisions and updates on a periodic basis. |
