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.

Operations Specifications, Part 129 Application
Key Information
Abstract
The purpose of the collection of information is used to evaluate whether foreign air carriers requesting new authority or with existing authority to operate in the U.S. will be able to conduct their operations safely within the National Airspace System (NAS) and in compliance with international obligations. Operators meeting those standards are issued operations specifications (OpSpecs) authorizing them to operate in the U.S. Consistent with previous practices, FAA includes a regulatory standard for issuing maintenance OpSpecs to persons operating U.S.-registered aircraft outside the U.S. in common carriage. Operators are required to respond, as needed, to the collection to obtain or retain a benefit (OpSpecs). OpSpecs are issued to the operator applying. OpSpecs are not available for viewing to the general public. OpSpecs are available for viewing to FAA offices for the purpose of safety oversight of the operators. FAA occasionally shares OpSpecs information, as needed, with other agencies such as Transportation Security Administration (TSA), Department of Transportation (DOT) or to answer questions from U.S. congress. The FAA requires foreign operators applying for the issuance or amendment of OpSpecs to submit supporting documentation. The type of documentation that a foreign operator needs to provide to the FAA is identified in FAA Order 8900.1 volume 12, which is publicly available . The information is helpful to new applicants as well as existing operators. |

Abstract
As a result of final rule, RIN 2900-AQ41 posted to the Federal Register 88FR4739 on January 25, 2023, VAAR case 2015-V016, this is a request from the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) for OMB approval of a new Information Collection (IC). In accordance with Veterans Affairs Acquisition Regulation (VAAR), section 812.301(f), Solicitation provisions and contract clauses for the acquisition of commercial items, VA is proposing to add clauses for insertion in solicitations and contracts for new medical equipment, new medical supplies, new information technology equipment, and maintenance of medical or information technology equipment that includes replacement parts. These clauses will prevent the entrance into the VA supply chain of gray market and counterfeit supplies and parts for such items. The solicitation provisions and contract clauses will also prohibit use of refurbished or remanufactured parts in the maintenance of these items. Two new clauses are proposed: 852.212-71, Gray Market and Counterfeit Items, and 852.212-72, Gray Market and Counterfeit Items—Information Technology Maintenance Allowing Other-than-New Parts. |

Application to Withdraw Tribal Funds from Trust Status, 25 CFR 1200
Key Information
Abstract
The American Indian Trust Management Reform Act of 1994 was enacted to allow tribes more control of the funds held in trust for them by the Federal Government. This information collection allows the Office of the Special Trustee for American Indians to collect the tribes' applications for withdrawal of funds held in trust by the Department of the Interior. The Act covers all tribal trust funds including judgment funds as well as some settlements funds, but excludes funds held in Individual Indian Money accounts. Both the Act and the regulations state that upon withdrawal of the funds, the Department of the Interior (and the Federal Government) have no further liability for such funds. |

Notice Claiming Status as an Exempt Transfer Agent
Key Information
Authorizing Statutes
Abstract
Transfer agents, which are institutions that provide securities transfer, registration, monitoring, and other specified services on behalf of securities issuers, are generally subject to certain Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) regulations. However, a transfer agent that is regulated by and registered with the Board (a Board-regulated transfer agent) may request an exemption from those regulations if it transfers and processes a low volume of securities (a low-volume transfer agent). A transfer agent is Board-regulated if it is a state member bank or a subsidiary thereof, a bank holding company (BHC), or a savings and loan holding company (SLHC). A Board-regulated transfer agent may request an exemption from the SEC regulations by filing with the Board a notice (exemption notice) certifying that it qualifies as a low-volume transfer agent. In addition, a Board-regulated low-volume transfer agent that no longer meets the requirements of being a low-volume transfer agent must notify the Board of that fact. |

Investment in Bank Premises Notification
Key Information
Abstract
The Federal Reserve Act (FRA) requires a state member bank to seek prior approval of the Board before making an investment in bank premises or the securities of a corporation holding its bank premises in certain circumstances. The Board has implemented this requirement in its Regulation H - Membership of State Banking Institutions in the Federal Reserve System (12 CFR Part 208), which requires a state member bank seeking to make such an investment to provide prior notice to the appropriate Federal Reserve Bank. The Federal Reserve uses the information provided in the notice to determine whether to object to the proposed investment. |
