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 information collection enables the Commission to monitor a pipeline's transportation, sales, and storage activities for its marketing affiliate to deter undue discrimination by pipeline companies in favor of their marketing affiliates. Non-affiliated shippers and other entities (e.g. state commissions) also use the information to determine whether they have been harmed by affiliate preference, and to prepare evidence for proceedings following the filing of a complaint.

Abstract

In order to allow Law Enforcement Officers (LEOs) to fly armed, TSA established a specialized screening process for Federal, State, local, and tribal LEO needing to access the sterile area of the airport when they are going to fly armed. To document such LEO movements, TSA’s specialized screening procedures require the LEO to complete TSA Form 413A, Checkpoint Sign-In Log. This real-time situational awareness is necessary in the event of a contingency on board the aircraft, such as but not limited to, a disruptive passenger, air piracy, or other threat to the safety and security of a commercial aircraft.

Abstract

The DC Opportunity Scholarship Program, authorized by the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2004, and reauthorized in 2017 by the Scholarships for Opportunity and Results (SOAR) Reauthorization Act, awarded a grant to Serving Our Children in order to administer scholarships to students who reside in the District of Columbia and come from households whose incomes do not exceed 185% of the poverty line. To assist in the student selection and assignment process, the information collected is used to determine the eligibility of those students who are interested in the available scholarships. Also, since the authorizing statute requires an evaluation, we are proposing to collect certain family demographic information because they are important predictors of school success. Finally, we are asking to collect information about parental participation and satisfaction because these are key topics that the statute requires the evaluation to address. This request makes two small changes to the questions previously approved by OMB. One is to add a question about how the families heard of Opportunity Scholarship Program (OSP). The other is to add a check box in section 9 (relating to students with disabilities) pursuant to the competitive grant application instructions. Previously this information collection was approved under OMB #1855-0015. This program and the associated collection were moved to the Office of Elementary and Secondary Education within the Department. As such, it requires a new OMB number that corresponds with the OMB numbers for collections from the Office of Elementary and Secondary Education. For that reason, we are requesting a new information collection and will discontinue 1855-0015 when this request is approved.

Abstract

The Organic Act of 1916 (NPS Organic Act) (54 U.S.C. §100101 et seq.) authorizes the Secretary of the Interior to develop regulations for national park units under the Department's jurisdiction. The Mining in the Parks Act (54 U.S.C. §100731 et seq.) directs the Secretary of the Interior to regulate all operations in park units in connection with the exercise of mineral rights on patented and unpatented mining claims. The National Park Service (NPS, we) regulations at 36 CFR Part 9, Subparts A and B, ensure that mining and non-Federal oil and gas activities on units of the National Park System are conducted in a manner consistent with preserving each unit for the benefit of present and future generations. Operators must submit specific information describing their future development plans, including steps to mitigate the impacts, and must not conduct any operations until they have NPS approval.

Abstract

In accordance with section 70914 of the Build America Buy America Act (Pub. L. No. 117-58 §§ 70901-70953) (BABAA), grantees funded under Department of Education (the Department) programs that allow funds to be used for infrastructure projects (infrastructure programs), i.e., construction and broadband infrastructure, may not use their grant funds for these infrastructure projects or activities unless they comply with the following BABAA sourcing requirements: 1) All iron and steel used in the infrastructure project or activity are produced in the United States, 2) All manufactured products used in the infrastructure project or activity are produced in the United States, and 3) All construction materials are manufactured in the United States. The Department may, in accordance with sections 70914(b) and (d), 70921(b), 70935, and 70937 of BABAA, and the Office of Management and Budget Memorandum M 22-11, Initial Implementation Guidance on Application of Buy America Preference in Federal Financial Assistance Programs for Infrastructure, approve waivers to BABAA sourcing requirements submitted by grantees under programs it has identified as infrastructure programs when it determines that exceptions to these requirements apply. The Department may approve, subject to notice and comment requirements and the Office of Management and Budget Made in America Office (MIAO) review, the types of waivers listed below when one or more of the following conditions are met: 1) Public Interest Waiver - Applying the BABAA sourcing requirement would be inconsistent with the public interest, 2) Non-availability Waiver - The types of iron, steel, manufactured products, or construction materials are not produced in the United States in sufficient and reasonably available quantities or of a satisfactory quality, and 3) Unreasonable Cost Waiver - The inclusion of iron, steel, manufactured products, or construction materials produced in the United States will increase the cost of the overall project by more than 25 percent. This is a new information collection and it includes the following two documents: 1) the Build America, Buy America Act (BABAA) Domestic Sourcing Requirements Waiver - United States Department of Education BABAA Waiver Request Form (BABAA Waiver Request Form); and 2) a document listing the BABAA Waiver Request Form data elements.

Abstract

This information collection request (ICR) is for an extension with modification of NHTSA’s currently approved ICR for NHTSA’s corporate average fuel economy (CAFE) program. NHTSA estimates that approximately 26 unique motor vehicle manufacturers (23 manufacturers required to comply with 49 CFR Part 537 CAFE reporting, and 3 small volume motor vehicle manufacturers petitioning NHTSA for alternative standards) will respond to the information collection in each of the next three years. This ICR includes 12 mandatory information collections: 2 annual reporting requirements, 8 additional as-needed reports, and 2 information collections for a petition process. The reporting requirements in 49 CFR Part 537 obligate a manufacturer to submit reports to the Secretary of Transportation regarding whether the manufacturer will comply with an applicable CAFE standard for the model year for which the report is made; the actions a manufacturer has taken or intends to take to comply with the standard; and other information the Secretary requires by regulation. A manufacturer must submit a report containing the above information during the 30-day period before the beginning of each model year, and during the 30-day period beginning the 180th day of the model year. When a manufacturer decides that actions reported are not sufficient to ensure compliance with that standard, the manufacturer must report additional actions it intends to take to comply with the standard and include a statement about whether those actions are sufficient to ensure compliance. NHTSA is requesting approval for this information collection to be modified to reflect proposed changes to required CAFE reporting. The modifications include additional information that must be submitted in pre-model and mid-model year reports and new information that must be submitted relating to credit value. The additional burden for reporting the value of a credit tradeis estimated to be 550 hours. NHTSA now estimates the total burden of this ICR to be 4,861 hours. This is a change of 843 hours (from 4,018 hours) and is a result of collecting additional data elements as a result of the CAFE Final Rule (RIN: 2127-AM34) and correcting some calculations errors from the prior ICR. In response to comments made on the NPRM, NHTSA has made modifications to the templates from what was described in the ICR submitted at the NPRM stage. No change in estimated burden hours was needed as a result of these modifications.

Abstract

The overall purpose of the Building Evidence on Employment Strategies (BEES) study is to conduct rigorous evaluations of innovative interventions aimed at improving employment outcomes, advances in the labor market, and economic security for low-income individuals and families. Populations of particular interest for BEES include individuals facing substance and opioid use disorders, disability or mental health challenges, and their families; criminal justice-involved populations; or others at increased risk of enrolling in TANF or SSI/SSDI. While the target population and domains may vary, all interventions will include an employment services component. BEES includes impact and/or implementation studies of 20 different programs. ACF requests a non-substantive modification of the BEES survey token of appreciation structure as part of our ongoing efforts to address lower-than-expected response rates and observable non-response bias for the follow-up wave of key respondents. As indicated in the table above, response rates are falling short of the targets in many of the studies, and response rates are substantially lower for control group members than for program group members. In addition, refusal rates are higher than in similar studies at 12 percent, and only about 13 percent have been unlocatable. These response rates raise concern about whether BEES will produce unbiased estimates of the programs being studied. The proposed increase in token of appreciation comes after many other efforts to address these concerns. The included nonsubstantive change memo highlights ACF’s efforts to date to secure the planned number of responses and address emerging non-response bias; describes proposed changes for the final phase of survey fielding; and explains the hypothesized benefits of the proposed approach and terms for assessment of the effort.
