Information Collection Request (ICR) Tracker
ICR Definition
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.

Federal Register Notices
AbstractThe Science Mission Directorate (SMD) within NASA is undertaking an Inclusion, Diversity, Equity, and Accessibility (IDEA) change effort. NASA SMD began these efforts as a response to their 2019 FEVS results by choosing Diversity and Inclusion as a focus area. This survey will be used as an evidence-building tool to baseline SMD staff (civil servants and contractors) views on the SMD culture, then periodically (approximately annually) re-assess to determine whether the culture is improving as IDEA efforts are implemented. Data obtained is intended for SMD internal use only and will not be publicly released; it will be used to design its IDEA initiatives and improve its internal environment. This survey will provide insights that the IDEA Working Group will consider to form, refine and prioritize their initiatives, and will serve as an evaluation mechanism to determine if implemented initiatives have had positive effects by comparing this baseline to future assessments. |

Drivers’ Use of Camera-Based Rear Visibility Systems Versus Traditional Mirrors
Key Information
Federal Register Notices
Authorizing Statutes49 USC 301 (View Law) AbstractThe National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has proposed to perform research involving the collection of information from the public as part of a multi-year effort to learn about drivers’ use of camera-based rear visibility systems as compared to their use of traditional vehicle outside mirrors. This research will support NHTSA in evaluating whether to pursue a regulation modification that would permit technologies other than mirrors, such as camera-based visibility systems (sometimes referred to as camera monitor systems (CMS)), for compliance with FMVSS No. 111. The data collections will be performed once to obtain the target number of valid test participants. Study participants will be members of the general public and participation will be voluntary. Participants will include licensed car and/or commercial truck drivers aged 25 to 65, who are healthy and able to drive without assistive devices. Participants will be recruited using print and online newspaper advertisements. Study participation will be voluntary and monetary compensation will be provided. The research will be conducted in two parts. Data collection will begin upon receipt of PRA clearance and will first involve light vehicles, and a second, subsequent part will involve heavy trucks. Participants will drive a production vehicle equipped with a commercially available or prototype camera-based visibility system in place of outside mirrors and a vehicle equipped with an original equipment mirror system. The research will involve track-based and on-road, semi-naturalistic driving experimentation. Vehicles used in testing will be equipped with instrumentation for recording driver eye-glance behavior, as well as vehicle speed, position, steering angle, and turn signal status. Sensors will also be used to determine and record the distances between the test vehicle and surrounding vehicles during testing. Information will be collected over the course of the research through participant recruitment screening questions, observation of driving behaviors, and post-drive questionnaires. Questions addressed to individuals will serve to assess individuals’ suitability for study participation, to obtain feedback regarding participants’ use of the CMS, and to gauge individuals’ level of comfort with and confidence in the CMS performance and safety. |

Why They Are Important
ICRs play a vital role in ensuring transparency and accountability in federal data collection. When federal agencies collect information from 10 or more "persons" (which includes individuals,
businesses, and state, local, and tribal governments), they must submit an ICR to ensure that it fulfills their statutory missions, avoids unnecessary or duplicative requests, and
minimizes burden on the American public. Additionally, Federal Register Notices (FRNs) and the opportunity for public comments provide a formal way for the public to be informed of
proposed ICRs and participate in the process.
ICRs also serve as a key resource for tracking changes to federal data collections. The availability of detailed documentation, such as data collection instruments and methodologies,
allows the general public to identify revisions in a timely manner. These may include revisions prompted by Executive Orders or statistical policies like
OMB's Statistical Policy Directive No. 15 (SPD 15), which are often submitted as "nonsubstantive" or "nonmaterial" changes to a
currently approved collection.[1] Furthermore, ICRs can help determine if a data collection has expired without renewal or has been intentionally
discontinued. By reviewing ICRs, the public can better understand what data is being collected, how it evolves over time, and whether data collections have become inactive–often in response
to shifting priorities and updated standards.
How To Use The Tool
The ICR tracking tool offers a user-friendly view of ICRs that have been recently submitted, reviewed, or are nearing expiration. By aggregating key data from individual ICRs,
the tool allows users to view the current status of each request, including submission, conclusion, and expiration dates, details on whether any changes were made, authorizing statutes,
and more. Users can search for specific information and filter results based on various criteria. If seeking additional information, various text fields are hyperlinked to the full ICR
on RegInfo.gov and associated resources. The tool is updated on a daily basis to reflect the most current information available.
