Information Collection Request (ICR) Tracker
ICR Definition
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.

To offer insurance through an Exchange, a health insurance issuer must have its health plans certified as QHPs by the Exchange. A QHP must meet certain minimum certification standards, such as network adequacy, actuarial value standards, and the offering of the essential health benefits (EHB). The Exchange is responsible for ensuring that QHPs meet these minimum certification standards as described in the Exchange rule under 45 CFR 155 and 156, based on the Affordable Care Act, as well as other requirements determined by the Exchange. |

Federal Register Notices
Authorizing Statutes16 USC 1826d-k (View Law) AbstractExtension of this approved collection is requested. Pursuant to the High Seas Driftnet Fishing Moratorium Protection Act (MPA) or the Marine Mammal Protection Act (MMPA), certain fish products may be excluded from U.S. markets. If certain fish or fish products of a nation are subject to import prohibitions (e.g., harvest of a particulary fishery), the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) requires that other fish or fish products from that nation that are not subject to the import prohibitions must be accompanied by certification of admissibility. A duly authorized official/agent of the applicant’s Government must certify that the fish being imported into the U.S. are of a species, or from a fishery, that is not subject to the import restriction. If a nation is identified under the MPA and fails to receive a positive certification decision from the Secretary of Commerce, products from that nation may be prohibited, and other products not subject to the import prohibitions must be accompanied by certification of admissibility. Likewise, if a nation does not receive a comparability finding for a fishery under the MMPA, products from that nation's fishery may be prohibited and products from other fisheries that are not subject to the import prohibitions must be accompanied by the certification of admissibility. |

Authorizing Statutes12 USC 2901 et seq, (View Law) AbstractThe OCC is revising and requesting a new OMB control number for its form titled “Qualifying Activities Confirmation Request Form,” which is currently approved under OMB Control No. 1557-0160. The form was created to address the need for a qualifying activities confirmation process that allows banks and interested parties to ascertain whether an activity qualifies under CRA. The process was well received and strongly supported among commenters on the OCC ANPR and NPR that resulted in the 2020 final rule. We believe that there remains widespread support for such a system. Based on these considerations, the OCC determined that it was important to implement a better designed system that more effectively and efficiently allows confirmation of qualified activities. A marked copy is included with the IC reflecting the changes to the form. |

Authorizing Statutes42 USC 7401 (View Law) AbstractThe National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for Flexible Polyurethane Foam Product (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart III) apply to owners or operators of both new and existing facilities that engage in the manufacture of flexible polyurethane foam products which emit hazardous air pollutants (HAPs). This includes facilities making slabstock flexible polyurethane foam (slabstock foam), rebond flexible polyurethane foam (rebond foam), and/or molded flexible polyurethane foam (molded foam). In general, all NESHAP standards require initial notifications, performance tests, and periodic reports by the owners/operators of the affected facilities. Owners or operators of flexible polyurethane foam production facilities to which this rule is applicable must choose one of the compliance options described in these standards or reduce HAP emissions to below the compliance level. Specifically, the rule requirements for slabstock foam producers include an initial notification, notification of compliance status, semiannual reports and annual compliance certifications. The rule requirements for molded and rebond foam producers include a notification of compliance status report and an annual compliance certification. These notifications, reports, and records are essential in determining compliance with 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart III. |

Why They Are Important
ICRs play a vital role in ensuring transparency and accountability in federal data collection. When federal agencies collect information from 10 or more "persons" (which includes individuals,
businesses, and state, local, and tribal governments), they must submit an ICR to ensure that it fulfills their statutory missions, avoids unnecessary or duplicative requests, and
minimizes burden on the American public. Additionally, Federal Register Notices (FRNs) and the opportunity for public comments provide a formal way for the public to be informed of
proposed ICRs and participate in the process.
ICRs also serve as a key resource for tracking changes to federal data collections. The availability of detailed documentation, such as data collection instruments and methodologies,
allows the general public to identify revisions in a timely manner. These may include revisions prompted by Executive Orders or statistical policies like
OMB's Statistical Policy Directive No. 15 (SPD 15), which are often submitted as "nonsubstantive" or "nonmaterial" changes to a
currently approved collection.[1] Furthermore, ICRs can help determine if a data collection has expired without renewal or has been intentionally
discontinued. By reviewing ICRs, the public can better understand what data is being collected, how it evolves over time, and whether data collections have become inactive–often in response
to shifting priorities and updated standards.
How To Use The Tool
The ICR tracking tool offers a user-friendly view of ICRs that have been recently submitted, reviewed, or are nearing expiration. By aggregating key data from individual ICRs,
the tool allows users to view the current status of each request, including submission, conclusion, and expiration dates, details on whether any changes were made, authorizing statutes,
and more. Users can search for specific information and filter results based on various criteria. If seeking additional information, various text fields are hyperlinked to the full ICR
on RegInfo.gov and associated resources. The tool is updated on a daily basis to reflect the most current information available.
