Change Requests

What is an ICR?

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.

When are they submitted?

Federal agencies are required to submit an ICR whenever they create, renew, 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.

Where to find an ICR?

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.

Applications and Reporting Requirements for Incidental Taking of Marine Mammals by Specified Activities Under the Marine Mammal Protection Act.

Revision of a currently approved collection
Applications and Reporting Requirements for Incidental Taking of Marine Mammals by Specified Activities Under the Marine Mammal Protection Act.

Key Information

Abstract

This request is for an extension and revision of an existing information collection under OMB Control No. 0648-0151. NMFS does not anticipate that the extension will substantially add to the burden to individual private applicants for incidental take authorizations under the existing Control Number. The main difference we expect related to this extension is that there will be a smaller number of applicants/respondents than accounted for in the existing OMB Control Number. This renewal removes the passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) and protected species observer (PSO) burden estimates. The Office of Protected Resources determined that those activities do not fall under the burden associated with this collection. The Marine Mammal Protection Act of 1972 (MMPA; 16 U.S.C. 1361 et. seq.) prohibits the “take” of marine mammals unless otherwise authorized or exempted by law. Among the provisions that allow for lawful take of marine mammals, sections 101(a)(5)(A) and (D) of the MMPA direct the Secretary of Commerce to allow, upon request, the incidental, but not intentional, taking of small numbers of marine mammals by U.S. citizens who engage in a specified activity (other than commercial fishing), within a specified geographical region if, after notice and opportunity for public comment, we find that the taking will have a negligible impact on the affected species or stock(s) and will not have an immitigable adverse impact on the availability of the species or stock(s) for subsistence uses (where relevant). NMFS also must set forth the permissible methods of taking; other means of effecting the least practicable adverse impact on the species or stock and its habitat (mitigation); and requirements pertaining to the monitoring and reporting of such taking. Issuance of an incidental take authorization (Authorization) under MMPA section 101(a)(5)(A) (through issuance of a Letter of Authorization (LOA) following issuance of incidental take regulations) or 101(a)(5)(D) (through issuance of an Incidental Harassment Authorization (IHA)) requires three sets of information collection: (1) a complete application for an Authorization, as set forth in NMFS’ implementing regulations at 50 CFR 216.104, which provides the information necessary to make the required statutory determinations, including estimates of take and an assessment of impacts on the affected species and stocks; (2) information relating to required monitoring; and (3) information related to required reporting. As required by the MMPA, these collections of information enable NMFS to: (1) prospectively evaluate the proposed activity’s impact on marine mammals; (2) arrive at the appropriate determinations required by the MMPA and other applicable laws prior to issuing the Authorization; and (3) monitor impacts of activities for which Authorizations have been issued to determine if predictions regarding impacts on marine mammals remain valid.

[NCEZID] Traveler-based Genomic Surveillance

Key Information

Abstract

The goal of [NCEZID] Traveler-based Genomic Surveillance is to monitor importation of SARS-CoV-2 variants among arriving international air travelers at select U.S. airports. Data will be used to inform early detection of imported SARS-COV-2 variants into the U.S. and for program management purposes. Data is collected from two lower nasal dry self-swabs from participants in airports that are pooled in batches of 5-10 samples. One sample will be pooled with samples from other travelers from the same flight origin country. Pooled samples undergo SARS-CoV-2 reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) testing and whole genome sequencing on positive samples to determine viral lineage. The second will be kept if there is a need to look more closely at a positive pool. Samples may be sent to CDC for further testing. Surveillance may be expanded to test for other pathogens such as influenza. Participants complete a questionnaire with their demographic, clinical, and travel history information and will be given a free antigen test kit for their time. This Non-Substantive Change Request is submitted to modify the existing questionnaire through combining and/or dropping questions, standardizing response choices, limiting areas of confusion and conversation with frontline ground staff, and prioritizing collection of the highest value information. There is a reduction in burden associated with these changes.

[NCHS] National Survey of Family Growth

Key Information

Abstract

National Survey of Family Growth (NSFG) collects and disseminate “statistics on family formation, growth, and dissolution.” The NSFG supplements and complements the data from birth and fetal death certificates by monitoring factors (such as sexual activity, contraception, marriage and cohabitation, and infertility) that affect birth and pregnancy rates. The NSFG provides nationally representative data on factors related to fertility, family formation, and reproductive health for NCHS and its cosponsors within DHHS. Throughout its history, NSFG has been administered in person, in English and Spanish, with a self-administered portion added in more recent survey periods. Under the plan laid out in this clearance request, NSFG builds on its past survey design and procedures and incorporates online administration into a multi-phase, multi-mode design. This design calls for about 5,000 people aged 15-49 to be interviewed each year, however higher yields are sought in Year 3 and beyond to compensate for the underproduction seen in the first 2 years of data collection due to the COVID-19 pandemic and associated labor market challenges. This Non-Substantive Change Request is submitted is for a set of survey instrument changes for implementation starting in January 2026 (Year 5). These survey changes consist primarily of question deletions and are proposed to reduce respondent burden and lessen the overall sensitivity of the survey content. No new content areas are proposed. There is no change to the data collection instruments or burden to respondents associated with this collection.

Traffic Coordination System for Space (TraCSS)

Key Information

Abstract

This is a request for a new information collection. This collection will support the registration process for the new U.S. civil space situational awareness (SSA) system, the Traffic Coordination System for Space (TraCSS). As directed in Space Policy Directive 3 (SPD-3), this system will “make available basic SSA data and basic [space traffic management] STM services free of direct user fees” and will “improve SSA data interoperability and enable greater SSA data sharing.” This basic safety service is essential to protect existing space assets that provide important contributions to the economy and national security. These assets can be put at risk by the debris created by unintentional collisions, even if they aren’t directly involved. A safe and sustainable space environment is also necessary for continued commercial investment in space activities. Users of the system - specifically, spacecraft owners/operators and national governments, are asked to provide information when they register for the system. This information includes organizational information and information about the spacecraft affiliated with the organization. This information is necessary to ensure that entities receive the appropriate safety services and information relevant to their spacecraft. Information provided about these spacecraft can also help to improve the accuracy and overall quality of services. Spacecraft operators are also asked to provide information on an ongoing basis, including spacecraft ephemerides and maneuver plans, to improve the accuracy and overall quality of services.

Recordkeeping and Disclosure Requirements Associated with Regulation II

Key Information

Abstract

Regulation II requires certain debit card issuers (referred to as “covered issuers”) to develop and implement, and at least annually review and update, certain fraud-prevention policies and procedures to be eligible to receive the fraud-prevention adjustment. In addition, the rule requires such a debit card issuer to annually notify its payment card networks that it is eligible to receive the fraud-prevention adjustment, and to notify its payment card networks when it is no longer eligible to receive the fraud-prevention adjustment. Finally, Regulation II requires all debit card issuers and, in some situations, payment card networks to retain evidence of compliance with the requirements in Regulation II for a prescribed period of time. The Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) classifies these recordkeeping and disclosure requirements associated with Regulation II as an information collection.

Program of Comprehensive Assistance for Family Caregivers (PCAFC) Decision Appeal Form

Key Information

Abstract

The Caregivers and Veterans Omnibus Health Services Act of 2010 (P.L. 111-163) enacted 38 U.S.C. 1720G, which directed the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) to establish a Program of Comprehensive Assistance for Family Caregivers (PCAFC) and a Program of General Caregiver Support Services (PGCSS). VA’s regulations implementing PCAFC and PGCSS are in 38 CFR Part 71. Both programs are managed by VA’s Caregiver Support Program (CSP) Office. On June 06, 2018, the President signed into law the John S. McCain III, Daniel K. Akaka, and Samuel R. Johnson VA Maintaining Internal Systems and Strengthening Integrated Outside Networks Act of 2018 or the VA MISSION Act 2018 (P.L. 115-182). The VA MISSION Act of 2018 expanded the PCAFC to Family Caregivers of eligible veterans of all eras in a phased approach, established new benefits for Primary Family Caregivers of eligible veterans, and made other changes affecting program eligibility and VA’s evaluation of PCAFC applications. Since program inception, Veterans and caregivers who disagree with a PCAFC decision were afforded the right to appeal through the Veterans Health Administration (VHA) Clinical Appeals Process. On February 19, 2019, VA implemented the Veterans Appeals Improvement and Modernization Act of 2017 (AMA), which significantly changed the VA benefits appeals process. AMA appeal and review processes are available for PCAFC decisions issued on or after February 19, 2019. A 2021 Court ruling in the case of Jeremy Beaudette & Maya Beaudette v. Denis McDonough, Secretary of Veterans Affairs, changed the appeal and review options available to individuals who have received a PCAFC decision and disagree with that decision. Consequently, VA expanded options available to Veterans and caregivers who seek review of or to appeal a PCAFC decision to include decision dating back to May 2011. As part of VA’s operational plan to implement the Beaudette decision, including to address appeals of decisions prior to February 19, 2019, a separate appeals process (legacy)is used to appeal to the Board regarding PCAFC decisions issued before February 19, 2019, and back to May 2011. VA initially developed two forms, 10-306 and 10-307, which previously were approved by OMB for a PRA clearance in 2022. VA Form 10-306, Request for Information About Program of Comprehensive Assistance for Family Caregivers (PCAFC) Decisions, is necessary to provide a means for claimants to request information about any PCAFC decision VA issued to them, regardless of when such decision was made. Veterans and caregivers may use this form to acquire information about past PCAFC decisions to determine whether they wish to pursue an appeal to the Board or request review. VA Form 10-307, Program of Comprehensive Assistance for Family Caregivers (PCAFC) Notice of Disagreement (NOD), was specific to PCAFC decisions rendered prior to February 19, 2019. As of now, the majority of individuals for whom VA Form 10-307 is applicable have submitted their requests, and the number of VA Form 10-307 submissions has consistently diminished over time. With forthcoming changes to CSP regulations, the division of cohorts will be eliminated, making VA Form 10-307 no longer applicable and obsolete. Therefore, CSP is requesting the discontinuation and removal of VA Form 10-307 from this collection. Note: CSP will continue to appropriately process all received VA 10-307 after sunsetting.

Revision of a currently approved collection
Incarcerated People’s Communications Services (IPCS) Provider Annual Reporting, Certification, and Other Requirements, WC Docket Nos. 23-62, 12-375

Key Information

Abstract

In 2015, the Wireline Competition Bureau, pursuant to its delegated authority, created a standardized reporting template, as well as instructions to guide ICS providers through the reporting process. The Commission required an officer of the provider to certify annually as to the accuracy of the data and other information submitted in the provider's annual report. The annual reports were revised in 2020 to improve the type and quality of information collected, and again in 2022. This collection is currently being revised to reflect revisions to the annual reporting instructions, template, and certification form for IPCS providers, as set forth in the January 8, 2025 IPCS Annual Reports Order. These revisions expand the reports to include video IPCS data and otherwise streamline much of the rate reporting and eliminate most reporting of site commissions and ancillary service charges that were prohibited in the 2024 IPCS Order.

National Ground-Water Monitoring Network Cooperative Funding Program

Key Information

Abstract

The USGS is working with the Federal Advisory Committee on Water Information (ACWI) and its Subcommittee on Ground Water (SOGW) to develop and administer a National Ground-Water Monitoring Network (NGWMN). This network is required as part of Public Law 111-11, Subtitle F-Secure Water: Section 9507 "Water Data Enhancement by the United States Geological Survey". The Network will consist of an aggregation of well data from existing Federal, Multi-state, State, Tribal, and local groundwater monitoring networks. To support data providers for the National Ground-Water Monitoring Network, the USGS will be providing funding through cooperative agreements to water-resource agencies that collect groundwater data. The USGS will be soliciting applications for funding that will request information from the Agency collecting the data. Elements will include contact information (phone number and email address), and a proposal describing their existing data collection and a plan to evaluate their data for incorporation into the NGWMN. The proposal will be evaluated by the USGS and the NGWMN Program Board to appropriate funding. The proposal will describe the groundwater networks to be included in the NGWMN, the purpose of the networks, an estimate of the number of wells they would submit for the network, an overview of the methods they would use to select and classify wells for the network a description of data collection techniques, and information on their databases. The proposal would also require estimates of one-time costs to complete the above tasks and annual costs to participate in the network.
