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.

Title X Implementation Study
Key Information
Abstract
The Office of Population Affairs (OPA), U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), is requesting 3 years of approval by OMB on a new collection. The Title X Implementation Study will document how organizations funded by the Title X Service Grants program design and implement their program services. The study will document (1) how grantees ensure access to equitable, affordable, client-centered quality family planning services; (2) the steps that Title X grantees take to provide clients from diverse communities with equitable access to affordable, high-quality, client-centered health services; (3) any pivots and/or accommodations to providing care they made in recent years, including during the COVID-19 pandemic; and (4) how they assess their impact. To carry out these objectives, the study team will rely on the following five proposed data sources: (1) a web-based survey of the 2022 cohort of Title X grantees; (2) grantee telephone interviews; (3) in-person or virtual listening visits with clinic administrators, service providers, and community outreach or partner staff at a subset of Title X sub-recipients and service delivery sites; (4) a web-based survey of clients at up to 10 of the sites selected for listening visits; and (5) telephone interviews with subject matter experts. Data collection will begin in fall 2022, pending OMB approval, with the grantee survey and interviews, which will inform selection of sites for the listening visits. |

Charter School Programs Application: State Entity Grants, Developer Grants, and Charter Management Organization Grants
Key Information
Abstract
The Expanding Opportunity Through Quality Charter Schools Program (CSP) is authorized under Title IV, Part C of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965, as amended by the Every Student Succeeds Act (20 U.S.C. 7221-7221j). On March 14, 2022, the Department published in the Federal Register a Notice of Proposed Priorities, Requirements, Definitions, and Selection Criteria for CSP Grants to State Entities (SE Grants), Grants to Charter Management Organizations for the Replication and Expansion of High-Quality Charter Schools (CMO Grants), and Grants to Charter School Developers for the Opening of New Charter Schools and for the Replication and Expansion of High-Quality Charter Schools (Developer Grants) (Vol. 87, No. 49, pages 14197-14210) (CSP NPP). Specifically, the Department proposed new priorities, application requirements, assurances, definitions, and selection criteria to create results-driven policies to help promote positive student outcomes, student and staff diversity, educator and community empowerment, promising practices, and accountability, including fiscal transparency and responsibility, in charter schools supported with CSP funds, which can serve as models for other charter schools. Based on the CSP NPP and public comments, the Department issued a notice of final priorities, requirements, definitions, and selection criteria for CSP SE Grants, CMO Grants and Developer Grants (CSP NFP), which published in the Federal Register on July 1, 2022. The final priorities, requirements, definitions, and selection criteria in the CSP NFP are intended to supplement existing statutory and regulatory requirements governing CSP SE Grants, CMO Grants, and Developer Grants. The Charter School Programs Office of the Department is requesting continued approval of this information collection for CSP SE Grants, CMO Grants, and Developer Grants generally; and for the CSP NFP, which requires the submission of a needs analysis and information regarding contracts with for-profit management organizations. The CSP (Assistance Listing Numbers (ALN) 84.282, including SE Grants (84.282A), CMO Grants (84.282M), and Developer Grants (84.282B and 84.282E)) is a competitive discretionary grant program. The grant applications submitted for this program are evaluated based on how well an applicant addresses the selection criteria (and any competitive preference priorities) and are used to determine applicant eligibility and award amounts for projects selected for funding. |

Guaranty Agencies Security Self-assessment and Attestation
Key Information
Abstract
This is a request for a revision of the approved information collection used by Federal Student Aid (FSA) to ensure that all data collected and managed by Guaranty Agencies (GAs) in support federal student financial aid programs is secure. FSA continues to use a formal assessment program that ensures the GAs have security protocols in place to protect the confidentiality and integrity of data entrusted to FSA by students and families. This assessment will identify security deficiencies based on the federal standards described in the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) publications. The increasing number of hours is to account for the revision from NIST 800-53 R4 to R5. There is an increase of the number of controls that need to be assessed for each of the 19 GAs (~70 controls and 2 new control families). |

Enrollment and Re-Certification of Entities in the 340B Drug Pricing Program and Collection of Manufacturer Data to Verify 340B Drug Pricing Program Ceiling Price Calculations
Key Information
Abstract
Section 602 of Public Law 102–585, the Veterans Health Care Act of 1992, enacted section 340B of the Public Health Service (PHS) Act, which instructs HHS to enter into a Pharmaceutical Pricing Agreement (PPA) with manufacturers of covered outpatient drugs. Manufacturers are required by section 1927(a)(5)(A) of the Social Security Act to enter into agreements with the Secretary of HHS (Secretary) that comply with section 340B of the PHS Act if they participate in the Medicaid Drug Rebate Program. When a drug manufacturer signs a PPA, it is opting into the 340B Drug Pricing Program (340B Program), and it agrees to the statutory requirement that prices charged for covered outpatient drugs to covered entities will not exceed statutorily defined 340B ceiling prices. When an eligible covered entity voluntarily decides to enroll and participate in the 340B Program, it accepts responsibility for ensuring compliance with all provisions of the 340B Program, including all associated costs. Covered entities that choose to participate in the 340B Program must comply with the requirements of section 340B(a)(5) of the PHS Act. Section 340B(a)(5)(A) of the PHS Act prohibits a covered entity from accepting a discount for a drug that would also generate a Medicaid rebate. Further, section 340B(a)(5)(B) of the PHS Act prohibits a covered entity from reselling or otherwise transferring a discounted drug to a person who is not a patient of the covered entity. |

State Authorization
Key Information
Abstract
The Department of Education (the Department) requests extension of this information collection regarding Institutional Eligibility regulations in §600.9 – State Authorization. These regulations were a result of negotiated rulemaking in early 2019 and the requirements to these regulations have not changed. The regulations in §600.9(c)(2)(i) require an institution to determine in accordance with the institution’s policies and procedures in which State a student is located while enrolled in a distance education or correspondence course, under either State jurisdiction or when the institution participates in a State authorization reciprocity agreement under which it is covered. The updates to the policies and procedures are not reported to the Department nor is there a specified format for such information. The regulations in §600.9(c)(2)(ii) require an institution, upon request from the Secretary, provide the written documentation of its determination of a student’s location, including the basis for such determination. There is no specific form or format for the institutions to provide this information to the Department upon request. It is anticipated that an institution would provide the pertinent portions of the policy and procedures manual to respond to such a request from the Department, but it may provide the requested information in another method. |

Bipartisan Safer Communities Act (BSCA), Stronger Connections Grant (SCG) Program
Key Information
Abstract
The Department of Education (the Department) requests an extension of the information collection under the School Improvement Programs section of the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act (BSCA), and the Stronger Connections Grant (SCG), OMB number 1810-0770. Under this program, the Department awards grants to State educational agencies (SEAs) for the purpose of providing competitive grants to high-need local educational agencies (LEAs) for activities under section 4108 of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 (ESEA). Eligible applicants for the SCG funds include those in any of the 50 States, the District of Columbia, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, the Bureau of Indian Education, and the Outlying Areas. Each SEA will award no less than 95 percent of its SCG allocation on a competitive basis to high-need LEAs as determined by the State. The SEA will reserve no more than 1% of its SCG allocation for administration and will use any remaining funds not awarded to LEAs for State-level activities to support section 4108 of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 (ESEA). This information collection will support the Department in providing effective technical assistance, monitoring and oversight to ensure that these funds are awarded and used as required by the BSCA – i.e., that the funds are awarded to high-need LEAs on a competitive basis for activities allowable under section 4108 of the ESEA. Department staff will review the information submitted by SEAs 1) for monitoring purposes, to verify that SEAs are implementing the BSCA requirements for SEA award of the SCG funds; and 2) to understand the manner in which SEAs are implementing these requirements. This information will enable the Department to provide effective technical assistance and support to States. If this information is not collected, the Department will be unable to fully and adequately meet monitoring and technical assistance responsibilities as States implement this program. |

Request for Designation As An Eligible Institution Under Titles III, V, and VII Programs and Waivers of the Non-Federal Cost Share Reimbursement (1894-0001)
Key Information
Abstract
This collection of information is necessary in order for the Secretary of Education to designate an institution of higher education eligible to apply for funding under Titles III, V, and VII of the Higher Education Act of 1965, as amended. An institution must apply to the Secretary to be designated as an eligible institution. The programs authorized include the Strengthening Institutions, Alaskan Native and Native Hawaiian-Serving Institutions, Asian-American and Native American Pacific Islander-Serving Institutions, Native American Serving Institutions, Hispanic-Serving Institutions, Hispanic-Serving Institutions (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math and Articulation), Promoting Postbaccalaureate Opportunities for Hispanic Americans (PPOHA), and Predominantly Black Institutions Programs. These programs award discretionary grants to eligible institutions of higher education so that they might increase their self-sufficiency by improving academic programs, institutional management, and fiscal stability. This collection of information is gathered electronically by the Department for the purpose of determining an institution’s eligibility to participate in the Titles III, V, and VII grant programs based on its enrollment of needy students and low average Core Expenses per full-time equivalent student. This collection also allows an institution to request a waiver of certain non-Federal cost-share requirements under the Federal Work-Study Program, Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant, Student Support Services Program and the Undergraduate International Studies and Foreign Language Program. The collection is paired with a computational exercise that results in the simultaneous publication of an Eligibility Matrix (EM), a listing of postsecondary institutions potentially eligible to apply for grants in Institutional Service. Criteria derived from applicable legislation and regulations are applied to enrollment and financial data from Department sources to determine the eligibility of each institution for each program. Only those institutions that either do not meet the financial criteria or do not appear in the eligibility matrix need to go through the application process. The results of the application process are a determination of eligibility for grant application and waiver, and updated information on institutional eligibility which is added to the EM. |

Voluntary Child Safety Seat Registration Form
Key Information
Abstract
This information collection is for mandatory disclosure requirements and recordkeeping for manufacturers of child restraint systems, and voluntary reporting for consumers. The provisions of the collection ensure that manufacturers of child restraint systems (CRSs): (1) produce registration cards, informational labels, and printed instructions (brochures), (2) collect CRS owner registration information and (3) create and keep registration records. The requirements of this collection apply to CRS manufacturers and voluntary reporting applies to consumers who purchase CRSs. This required collection supports the Department of Transportation’s (DOT) strategic goal for safety, by working towards the elimination of transportation related deaths and injuries involving children. CRS manufacturers are required to provide owner registration cards and to label their CRSs with a message informing the consumer/CRS owner of the importance of registering the CRS as well as with information necessary to allow subsequent owners to register the restraint. The CRS manufacturer is required to keep records of the consumer registration information by developing and maintaining a filing system which contains the owner’s name and address along with identifying information for the CRS purchased by that consumer. Requiring the retention of this information ensures that the manufacturer is able to contact owners if the product they purchased is later subject to a safety recall, thus increasing the likelihood that safety recalls for CRSs will be remedied. also required to provide with all CRSs: (1) printed instructions with step-by-step information on how the restraint is to be used and (2) permanent labeling that gives “quick-look” information on whether the restraint meets the safety requirements, recommended installation and use, the child weight limit for using the lower anchors to attach the child restraint to the vehicle, and warnings against misuse. The provided instructions and labeling are to guide the consumer on how to properly install and use CRSs. Without proper use, the effectiveness of a CRS is greatly diminished. NHTSA estimates the total burden of this information collection is 109,939 hours and $8,000,000. The increase in reported burden for this collection is primarily due to updated CRS sales estimates. The agency previously estimated that approximately 14,500,000 CRSs were sold each year. In 2022, the agency estimates that 16,000,000 CRSs will be sold each year. Therefore, the burden increased from 99,330 hours to 109,939 burden hours (an increase of 10,609 hours) and the total cost increased from $0 to $8,000,000 due to the addition of printing and material costs not accounted for in the previous submission. |
