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.

Abstract

This clearance covers the information that an offeror must submit in response to the requirements of the provisions and clauses in Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) part 25 that relate to the following: * The Buy American statute (41 U.S.C. chapter 83) and Executive Orders (E.O.s) 10582 and 14005. * The Trade Agreements Act (19 U.S.C. 2501-2515), including the World Trade Organization Government Procurement Agreement and various free trade agreements. * The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Pub. L. 111-5) (Recovery Act). * Subchapters VIII and X of Chapter 98 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS) (19 U.S.C. 1202). a. 52.225-2, Buy American Certificate. This provision requires the offeror to identify in its proposal supplies that do not meet the definition of domestic end product and whether those supplies exceed 55% domestic content. This provision also requires offerors to identify in its proposal domestic end products that contain a critical component. b. 52.225-4, Buy American—Free Trade Agreements—Israeli Trade Act Certificate. This provision requires a separate list of foreign products that are eligible under a trade agreement, and a list of all other foreign end products and whether those supplies exceed 55% domestic content. This provision also requires offerors to identify in its proposal domestic end products that contain a critical component. c. 52.225-6, Trade Agreements Certificate. This provision requires the offeror to certify that all end products are either U.S.-made or designated country end products, except as listed in paragraph (b) of the provision. Offerors are not allowed to provide other than a U.S.-made or designated country end product, unless the requirement is waived. d. 52.225-8, Duty-Free Entry. This clause requires contractors to notify the contracting officer when they purchase foreign supplies, in order to determine whether the supplies should be duty-free. The notice shall identify the foreign supplies, estimate the amount of duty, and the country of origin. The contractor is not required to identify foreign supplies that are identical in nature to items purchased by the contractor or any subcontractor in connection with its commercial business, and segregation of these supplies to ensure use only on Government contracts containing duty-free entry provisions is not economical or feasible. In addition, all shipping documents and containers must specify certain information to assure the duty-free entry of the supplies. The listed provisions and clauses provide that an offeror or contractor requesting to use foreign construction material due to unreasonable cost of domestic construction material shall provide adequate information to permit evaluation of the request.

Abstract

The American Rescue Plan (ARPA) Act of 2021 (Pub.L. 117-2; H.R. 1319, Section 3207) appropriated an additional $39 million of Budget Authority (BA) for Single Family Housing (SFH) Section 502 and 504 Direct Loan Program borrowers. Funds remain available until September 30, 2023. The Agency’s initial objective under the ARP Act is to refinance the existing 23,000 Section 502 direct and Section 504 borrowers who have been granted and received a COVID-19 payment moratorium. Refinancing these loans with a lower interest rate and extended terms will help provide needed relief to borrowers, so that mortgage payments are more affordable post-moratorium.

Abstract

Defense Logistics Agency, Disposition Services disposes of excess property received from the military services. The inventory changes daily and includes thousands of items from air conditioners to vehicles, clothing to computers, and more. DLA Disposition Services manages the disposal of hazardous property for DoD activities, maximizing the use of each item and minimizing environmental risks and costs through monitored compliant disposal. Part of that monitored compliant disposal is the Qualified Facility List where facilities are screened to ensure they are operating within the limits of the law. The information collected via the DLA Form 2507, “Application for Qualified Facility List (QFL),” will be used to validate hazardous waste (HW) disposal facilities around the world. Prior to the U.S. Government sending hazardous waste to a disposal facility, the facility must undergo a vetting process to ensure they are properly permitted, insured, and operating within local, state, and/or national regulations.

Abstract

Incentive compensation practices in the financial services industry contributed to the financial crisis that began in 2007. Bank employees too often were rewarded for increasing short-term revenue or profit without adequate regard to the risks taken to achieve those results. These practices exacerbated the risks and losses at a number of banking organizations and resulted in the misalignment of the interests of employees with the long-term safety and soundness of their organizations. The guidance was issued to assist banking organizations in designing and implementing incentive compensation arrangements that do not encourage imprudent risk-taking and that are consistent with the safety and soundness of a banking organization.

Abstract

The Passenger Ferry Grant Program provides funding for passenger ferries through a competitive process for capital projects that support passenger ferry systems in urbanized areas, such as ferry vessels, terminals, and related infrastructure. The Electric or Low-Emitting Ferry Pilot Program makes federal funds available to projects that supports the purchase of electric or low-emitting ferry vessels. The Ferry Service for Rural Communities Program makes federal funds available to states to ensure basic essential ferry service is provided to rural areas. The information collection (IC) request is for an extension without change of a currently approved collection which is due to expire on December 31, 2022. FTA began this information collection in June 2022 under a six-month OMB emergency approval. On September 27, 2022, FTA issued a 60-day Federal Register Notice (FRN) requesting the extension of the approved information collection under the regular Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) clearance process. There were no comments received from that notice. As required, a 30-day FRN requesting public comments followed. There have been no changes to the respondent universe or burden since the initial emergency request. FTA is requesting OMB approval under the normal PRA process for up to three years. This is a voluntary program where recipients submit initial information at the application stage and if funding is received at the project management stage. Information by eligible recipients to include; designated Recipients of Section 5307 Funding, direct Recipients of Section 5307 Funding, public entities engaged in providing public transportation passenger ferry service in urban areas that are eligible to be a Direct Recipient, states, territories and tribal governments. The information is received online via FTA's transit award and grant management system. There are no changes to this IC as FTA has not applied any substantive changes or adjustments from the initial assumptions of the emergency approval. FTA plans to announce the first grant recipients of this program in early 2023.

Abstract

GSA’s Office of Shared Solutions and Performance Improvement (OSSPI) improves mission delivery and implementation of the Administration’s priorities by bringing the government together to drive innovation, foster collaboration, and shape effective policy. Working through its three functional areas of Executive Council management, Shared Services, and the President’s Management Agenda (PMA) team, OSSPI’s vision is to be a trusted partner delivering on the Administration priorities by unifying the government as one Federal enterprise. Since 2015, OSSPI (and its predecessor, the Office of Executive Councils) has managed a government-wide survey gauging satisfaction for mission-support services, covering those services provided by the Acquisition, Financial Management, SSC (Security, Suitability, and Credentialing ), and IT functions. This survey was initially part of the Benchmarking initiative, which was a Cross-Agency Priority Goal in the Obama administration (see OMB memorandum M-12-14, p. 8) and has continued by each subsequent administration with PMC consultation and input. The data collections envisioned by the collection will be designed to determine requirements and evaluate the usability and utility of specific research questions as part of GSA’s support for the President’s Management Council (PMC) and OMB’s management offices. These data collection efforts may include, but may not be limited to electronic methodologies, empirical studies, video and audio collections, interviews, and questionnaires. Each individual request under this umbrella collection will include information explaining the purpose, scope, and benefit(s) of each data collection request.

Abstract

This is a request for a generic clearance for the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (“Bureau”) for the development and testing of consumer financial disclosures and related materials. The research will result in recommendations for the development of and revisions to such disclosures and related materials. The research activities may be conducted by the Bureau or its contractors, and will include cognitive psychological testing methods or rigorous quantitative evaluations. This approach has been demonstrated to be feasible and valuable by the Bureau and other agencies in developing disclosures and related materials. The planned research activities will be conducted with the goal of creating effective disclosures and related materials that will help consumers understand the features of consumer financial products and services. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau is modifying this generic information collection plan to provide for enhanced public notice and opportunity to comment to OMB for each request submitted under this generic.
