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.

Domestic Victims of Human Trafficking (DVHT) Program Data
Key Information
Abstract
The Trafficking Victims Protection Act of 2000 (TVPA), as amended, authorizes the Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS) to expand benefits and services to victims of severe forms of trafficking in persons in the United States (U.S.), without regard to their immigration status. The TVPA also authorizes HHS to establish and strengthen programs to assist United States citizens and lawful permanent residents who have experienced sex trafficking or severe forms of trafficking in persons (22 U.S.C. § 7105(f)(1)). Acting under a delegation of authority from the Secretary of HHS, the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) awards cooperative agreements to organizations to establish a program to assist U.S. citizens and lawful permanent residents who have experienced human trafficking, the Domestic Victims of Human Trafficking (DVHT) Program. The DVHT Program currently consists of two distinct programs: the Domestic Victims of Human Trafficking Services and Outreach Program (DVHT-SO), and the Demonstration Grants to Strengthen the Response to Victims of Human Trafficking in Native Communities Program (VHT-NC). Through the DVHT Program, grant recipients provide comprehensive case management to domestic survivors of human trafficking in traditional case management and Native community settings. This is an existing collection that is necessary to measure grant project performance, provide technical assistance to grant recipients, assess program outcomes, inform program evaluation, respond to congressional inquiries and mandated reports, and inform policy and program development that is responsive to the needs of victims. Information from this collection also enables OTIP to fulfill a provision in the TVPA of 2000, as amended, that requires the Attorney General to submit annually “a report on Federal agencies that are implementing any provision of this chapter” (22 U.S.C. § 7103(d)) and to prepare a required annual report to Congress on U.S. Government activities to combat trafficking that is prepared by the U.S. Department of Justice. Congress requires HHS and other appropriate Federal agencies to report, at a minimum, information on the number of persons who received benefits or other services under 22 U.S.C. § 7105(b)(f), in connection with programs or activities funded or administered by HHS. Minor, nonsubstantive updates have been made to performance indicators under this collection to simplify response options and to bring the collection into alignment with OTIP’s grant recipient reporting database, the Anti-Trafficking Information Management System (ATIMS). Additionally, certain response options that do not pertain to OTIP's domestic victim service programs were removed. Additionally, based on review of performance data received, specifically the average number of clients served by funded recipients over the last four years, burden estimates for this collection have been reduced. See sections A8 and A15 for additional details about proposed changes. |

National Human Trafficking Hotline (NHTH) Performance Indicators
Key Information
Abstract
Section 107of the Trafficking Victims Protection Act (TVPA) of 2000, as codified at 22 U.S.C. § 7105(b)(1)(B)(ii), authorizes the Secretary of Health and Human Services to make a grant for a national communication system—the National Human Trafficking Hotline (NHTH)—to assist victims of severe forms of trafficking in persons in seeking help, receiving referrals, and reporting potential trafficking cases. HHS delegated this authority to the Office on Trafficking in Persons (OTIP). OTIP awards a single, competitively selected grant recipient to maintain and support operation of the NHTH throughout the United States and U.S. territories. The NHTH is a toll-free hotline that operates 24 hours a day, every day of the year. The recipient of the NHTH grant award is expected to: 1. Operate the NHTH’s telephone, text services, chat services, and website via a coordinated national communications system available 24 hours a day; 2. Provide timely information and service referrals to victims of human trafficking; 3. Notify law enforcement and child welfare agencies of potential cases of human trafficking, as required by law and in other situations where appropriate; 4. Establish and maintain a comprehensive online directory of community-based service providers across the United States and U.S. territories. The NHTH grant recipient collects information about signalers (individuals who contact the hotline) and from signalers regarding potential human trafficking situations and potential victims. The NHTH grant recipient summarizes and reports this information to HHS in the aggregate. This is an active, approved collection. The information obtained through this information collection is necessary to support the monitoring of work done through this cooperative agreement, ensure signalers receive information and support needed, provide appropriate technical assistance (TA) to the grant recipient, and to document emerging trafficking schemes. There are no changes proposed to the information collection other than updates to the estimated number of respondents, as shown and described in sections A12 an A15 of the Supporting Statement A. |

Operating Limitations on the Use of Navigable Airspace
Key Information
Abstract
The DOT and FAA are collecting this information for safety purposes. This required/mandatory data allows the FAA to ensure the rate reduction is achieved to alleviate stressors on the air traffic control system. In addition, the data allows the DOT and FAA to know which travelers and communities are impacted by the reductions. Based upon those impacts, the FAA may reject or direct modifications to such reductions to prevent unacceptable disproportionate impacts to flight availability including regional routes and Essential Air Service and to ensure even distribution of reductions throughout the day at each airport.Emergency Justfication:Due to the lapse in appropriations, the FAA has experienced increasing air traffic controller staffing constraints. Therefore, the FAA's Office of Aviation Safety and Air Traffic Organization reviewed, monitored, and evaluated air traffic control safety. As part of this review, the FAA assessed voluntary safety reports submitted for the month of October. The reports indicated users of the National Airspace System had concerns about its performance even with current mitigations in place. The FAA has also observed evidence of increased stress on the NAS in aviation safety data, particularly at 40 high traffic airports. This data prompted the FAA to issue the Emergency Order Establishing (EO) Operating Limitations on the Use of Navigable Airspace on 11/7/25 to mitigate safety concerns and address ATC stressors. As part of this 7 EO, the FAA required certain air carriers operating at the 40 high traffic airports to reduce their total daily scheduled domestic operations between 6:00 a.m. and 10:00 p.m. local by 10 percent, subject to the provisions set forth in this Emergency Order. One of the provisions required the air carriers to "submit a list of reduced operations to the FAA Slot Administration" and daily thereafter. 90 FR 50884 (11/12/25). The FAA is in the process of canceling and replacing the Nov 7 EO to reduce the reduction rate to 6 percent. The revised Order should be signed on November 12, 2025 (Nov 12 EO). |
