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.

| 202210-1545-010 | Energy Efficient Commercial Buildings Deduction (Form 7205) | TREAS/IRS | 2022-11-30 | 2023-02-14 | Approved with change | Active | Revision of a currently approved collection
Energy Efficient Commercial Buildings Deduction (Form 7205)
Key Information
Abstract
Form 7205 (December 2022) is being created to allow taxpayers who own or lease a commercial building to claim under section 179D a deduction for a portion of the cost of installing energy-efficient commercial building property. Form 7205 consolidates deductions from other IRS forms and schedules; and provides information to support the deduction claimed. This form helps taxpayers understand how to calculate the deduction and increase taxpayer compliance. The Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2021 (P.L. 116-260), section 102(a), made the IRC section 179D deduction permanent. Notice 2008-40 clarifies and amplifies Notice 2006–52, 2006–1 C.B. 1175. Notice 2006–52 provides a process that allows a taxpayer who owns a commercial building and installs property as part of the commercial building’s interior lighting systems, heating, cooling, ventilation, and hot water systems, or building envelope to obtain a certification that the property satisfies the energy efficiency requirements of § 179D(c)(1) and (d) of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC). Notice 2006–52 also provides for a public list of software programs that may be used in calculating energy and power consumption for purposes of § 179D, and allows software developers to be added to the list. Taxpayers are required by section 179D (statute) to certify each project for which they claim the 179D deduction. The IRS has not added to that burden in Notice 2008-40 but simply provided guidance on how to complete the certification process required by the statute. |

Consolidated Labeling Requirements for 49 CFR Part 541 and Procedures for Selecting Lines to be Covered by the Theft Prevention Standard for 49 CFR Part 542
Key Information
Authorizing Statutes
Abstract
This information collection supports the Federal Motor Vehicle Theft Prevention Standard’s requirements that certain vehicle lines be marked with identifying symbols or numbers (parts-marking) to reduce the incidence of motor vehicle thefts through tracing and recovery of parts from stolen vehicles. In addition to the parts-marking requirements, vehicle manufacturers must submit certain information to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) about their vehicle lines covered by this standard and must maintain that information for the duration of the production of a vehicle line. There are five information collections in this request: (1) the requirement to mark major parts of covered motor vehicles; (2) the requirement to submit to NHTSA target areas showing where the parts will be marked; (3) the requirement that manufacturers maintain the designated target areas for the duration of the production of the vehicle line; (4) the requirement for manufacturers of new LDT lines to submit information to NHTSA to allow the agency to determine whether the LDT line will be required to comply with the parts-marking requirements because it is likely to be a high theft line; and (5) the requirement for manufacturers of new LDT lines to submit information to NHTSA to allow the agency to determine the LDT will be required to comply with the parts-marking requirements because it contains major parts that are interchangeable with the majority of the covered major parts of passenger motor vehicles covered by the standard. This is a reinstatement that increases NHTSA’s burden by 150,550 hours and $24,003,000 in cost. However, during the previous submission the hours were 267,356, which now is a reduction of 116,806 hours from the previous submission. This reduction is due to the decreased number of vehicles requiring stamping (previously 8 million) and the number of target area submissions (previously 30). The costs for printing have reduced $57,917,000 (from $81,920,000) from the last OMB approval. Not only have the number of vehicles reduced by 3.5 million, but the previous approval included labor costs (burden hour costs) in the printing costs. The printing cost per vehicle, $5.33, has remained the same. |

Tribal Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood Home Visiting Program Performance Reporting Form 2
Key Information
Abstract
Section 511 of the Social Security Act created the Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood Home Visiting Program (MIECHV) and authorized the Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) (in Section 511(h)(2)(A)) to award grants to Indian tribes (or a consortium of Indian tribes), tribal organizations, or urban Indian organizations to conduct an early childhood home visiting program. The legislation set aside 3 percent of the total MIECHV program appropriation for grants to tribal entities. The Administration for Children and Families (ACF), Office of Child Care, in collaboration with the Health Resources and Services Administration, Maternal and Child Health Bureau, awards grants for the Tribal MIECHV Program. The Tribal MIECHV grant awards support 5-year cooperative agreements to implement high-quality, culturally-relevant, evidence-based home visiting programs in at-risk Tribal communities. Tribal MIECHV grants, to the greatest extent practicable, are to be consistent with the requirements of the MIECHV grants to states and jurisdictions (authorized in Section 511(c)), and include conducting a needs assessment and establishing quantifiable, measurable benchmarks. Specifically, the MIECHV legislation requires State and Tribal MIECHV grantees to collect data to measure improvements for eligible families in six specified areas (referred to as "benchmark areas") that encompass the major goals for the program and are listed below: 1. Improved maternal and newborn health 2. Prevention of child injuries, child abuse, neglect, or maltreatment, and reduction in emergency department visits 3. Improvement in school readiness and achievement 4. Reduction in crime or domestic violence 5. Improvement in family economic self-sufficiency 6. Improvement in the coordination and referrals for other community resources and supports As part of their implementation plans, Tribal MIECHV grantees are required to propose a plan for meeting the benchmark requirements specified in the legislation and must report performance data to HHS, with improvement assessed at the end of Year 4 and Year 5 of their 5-year grants. (With the American Rescue Plan Act, 19 of the 23 grantees received an additional year of funding and will report a “Year 6 “ of performance data). The Tribal Home Visiting (HV) Form 2 provides a template for Tribal MIECHV grantees to report data on their progress in improving performance under the six benchmark areas, as stipulated in the legislation. This request is for an extension with no changes to the Tribal MIECHV Form 2. |

U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service ArcGIS Online (AGOL) Platform
Key InformationAuthorizing Statutes
Abstract
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) collects and maintains necessary geospatial data to meet our mission in accordance with the Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act of 2006, as amended (31 U.S.C. 6101); Geospatial Data Act of 2018 (43 U.S.C. chapter 46, 2801–2811); National Technology Transfer and Advancement Act of 1995 (Public Law 104–113); Open, Public, Electronic, and Necessary (OPEN) Government Data Act; Title II of the Foundations for Evidence-Based Policymaking Act of 2018 (Public Law 115–435); OMB Circular A-16, “Coordination of Geographic Information and Related Spatial Data Activities”; OMB Circular A-119, “Federal Participation in the Development and Use of Voluntary Consensus Standards and in Conformity Assessment Activities”; and OMB Circular A-130, “Managing Information as a Strategic Resource.” Geospatial data identifies and depicts geographic locations, boundaries, and characteristics of features on the surface of the earth. Geospatial data includes geographic coordinates (e.g., latitude and longitude) to identify the location of earth’s features, and data associated to geographic locations (e.g., land survey data and land cover type data). The Service’s organizational ArcGIS online program (AGOL), accessed at http://fws.maps.arcgis.com, is an easy place to share data with the public and partners, as well as internally among Service staff. It can also be used to build and deploy mobile-enabled online maps, applications, and services for geographic information systems (GIS) users and non-GIS users alike. Sensitive data is restricted from public access via an internal-facing intranet version of AGOL. Moreover, because the system contains only controlled unclassified information (CUI) that would be designated as low impact under the Federal Information Security Act (FISMA; 2002), no personally identifiable information (PII) is allowed within the system. The AGOL platform enables the Service to effectively manage geospatial data resources and technology to successfully deliver geospatial services in support of the Service’s mission. Data collected through AGOL enables improved visualization, analysis, interoperability, modeling, sharing, and decision support. The benefits include increased accuracy, increased productivity, and more efficient information management and application support. |

Formative Research, Pretesting, and Customer Satisfaction of NCI's Communication and Education Resources (NCI)
Key Information
Abstract
This is a request for OMB to approve an extension for this generic submission for three years. As part of NCI’s mandate from Congress to disseminate information on cancer research, detection, prevention, and treatment, the Institute develops various messages and materials. Testing these messages and materials assesses their potential effectiveness in reaching and communicating with their intended audience while they are still in the developmental stage and can be revised. The formative research and pretesting process thus maximize NCI’s limited dollar resources for information dissemination and education. NCI also must ensure the relevance, utility, and appropriateness of the many educational programs and products that the Institute produces. Customer satisfaction studies help NCI identify modifications necessary to meet the needs of NCI’s various target audiences. |

Rule 17Ad-10: Accurate Creation and Maintenance of Securityholder Files (17 CFR 240.17Ad-10)
Key Information
Abstract
Rule 17Ad-10, 17 CFR 240.17Ad-10, under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, requires a registered transfer agent to create and maintain minimum information on securityholders ownership of an issue of securities for which it performs transfer agent functions, including the purchase, transfer and redemption of securities. In addition, the rule also requires transfer agents that maintain securityholder records to keep certificate detail that has been deleted from those records for a minimum of six years and to maintain and keep current an accurate record of the number of shares or principle dollar amount of debt securities that the issuer has authorized to be outstanding (a control book). These recordkeeping requirements assist in the creation and maintenance of accurate securityholder records, the ability to research errors, and ensure the transfer agent is aware of the number of securities that are properly authorized by the issuer, thereby avoiding overissuance. Transfer agents are required to establish written standards for the acceptance or rejection of guarantees of securities transfers from eligible guarantor institutions. Transfer agents are also required to establish procedures, including written guidelines where appropriate, to ensure that those standards are used in determining whether to accept or reject guarantees from eligible guarantor institutions. |
