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.

Sexual Violence Support & Experience Study (SVSES)
Key InformationAbstract
In March 2019, Acting Secretary of Defense Patrick Shanahan requested the Department of Defense (DoD) to form a team of experts to “take a fresh look” at issues involving the sexual assault investigative and accountability process. The DoD established the Sexual Assault Accountability and Investigation Task Force (SAAITF) to identify, evaluate, and make recommendations to improve the investigation and accountability process. As part of this effort, the 2019 SAAITF report called for a “standardized survey of victim experiences, attitudes, and satisfaction.” The Sexual Violence Support and Experiences Study (SVSES) meets this requirement and will allow the DoD Sexual Assault Prevention and Response Office (SAPRO), other DoD policy offices, and the military Services to use the input of military members to inform improvements to the response system and to address challenges military members face during the military investigation and accountability process. |

Appraisals for Higher-Priced Mortgage Loans
Key Information
Abstract
This information collection relates to section 1471 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, which added a new section 129H to the Truth in Lending Act (TILA) establishing special appraisal requirements for “higher-risk mortgages.” For certain mortgages with an annual percentage rate that exceeds the average prime offer rate by a specified percentage, creditors must obtain an appraisal or appraisals meeting certain specified standards, provide applicants with a notification regarding the use of the appraisals, and give applicants a copy of the written appraisals used. The statute permits the OCC to issue a rule to include exemptions from these requirements. The information collection requirements are found in 12 CFR 34.203(c)(1), (c)(2), (d), (e) and (f). This information is required to protect consumers and promote the safety and soundness of creditors making higher-priced mortgage loans (HPMLs) subject to 12 CFR part 34, subpart G. This information is used by creditors to evaluate real estate collateral securing HPMLs subject to 12 CFR 1026.35(c) and by consumers entering these transactions. The collections of information are mandatory for creditors making HPMLs subject to 12 CFR part 34, subpart G. Under 12 CFR 34.203(e) and (f), a creditor must, no later than the third business day after the creditor receives a consumer’s application for an HPML, provide the consumer with a disclosure that informs the consumer that the creditor may order an appraisal to determine the value of the property and charge the consumer for that appraisal, that the creditor will provide the consumer with a copy of any appraisal, and that the consumer may choose to have an additional appraisal conducted at the expense of the consumer. If a loan is an HPML subject to 12 CFR 34.203(c), then, under 12 CFR 34.203(c)(1) and (2), the creditor is required to obtain a written appraisal prepared by a certified or licensed appraiser who conducts a physical visit of the interior of the property that will secure the transaction (Written Appraisal) and provide a copy of the Written Appraisal to the consumer. Under 12 CFR 34.203(d)(1), a creditor is required to obtain an additional appraisal (Additional Written Appraisal) for an HPML that is subject to 12 CFR part 34, subpart G if: (1) the seller acquired the property securing the loan 90 or fewer days prior to the date of the consumer’s agreement to acquire the property and the price in the consumer’s agreement to acquire the property exceeds the seller’s acquisition price by more than 10 percent; or (2) the seller acquired the property securing the loan 91 to 180 days prior to the date of the consumer’s agreement to acquire the property and the price in the consumer’s agreement to acquire the property exceeds the seller’s acquisition price by more than 20 percent. Under 12 CFR 34.203(d)(3) and (4), the Additional Written Appraisal must meet the requirements described in 12 CFR 34.203(c)(1) and also include an analysis of: (1) the difference between the price at which the seller acquired the property and the price the consumer is obligated to pay to acquire the property; (2) changes in market conditions between the date the seller acquired the property and the date of the consumer’s agreement to acquire the property; and (3) any improvements made to the property between the date the seller acquired the property and the date of the consumer’s agreement to acquire the property. Under 12 CFR 34.203(f), a creditor is required to provide the consumer with a copy of any Additional Written Appraisal. |

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. |

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. |
