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

Pursuant to section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the PRA, in the first FR notice (87 FR 11425) published on March 1, 2022, EPA solicited comments and information pertaining to the distribution of offsite consequence analysis information under the accidental release prevention requirements; Risk Management Programs under the Clean Air Act Section 112(r)(7). The regulations include requirements for submittal of a Risk Management Plan (RMP) to EPA, which includes information on offsite consequence analysis (OCA) as well as other elements of the Risk Management Program. The Chemical Safety Information, Site Security, and Fuels Regulatory Relief Act (CSISSFRRA), published on August 4, 2000 (65 FR 48108), required the President, who delegated to EPA and the Department of Justice (DOJ), the responsibility to promulgate regulations on the distribution of OCA information, imposed minimal information and recordkeeping requirements. In accordance with the final rule, the Federal Government established 55 reading rooms at Federal facilities geographically distributed across the United States and its territories, where the public may read, but not mechanically copy or remove, paper copies of OCA information for up to 10 stationary sources per calendar month. The public may also obtain OCA information that the Local Emergency Planning Committee (LEPC) in whose jurisdiction the requestor lives or works, is authorized to provide. The final rule also authorizes and encourages State and local government officials to access OCA information for their official use, and to provide the public with read-only access to OCA sections of RMPs for sources located within the jurisdiction of the LEPC where the person lives or works and for any other stationary sources with vulnerability zones extending into the LEPCs jurisdiction. EPA also established a Vulnerable Zone Indicator System (VZIS) which informs any person located in any state whether an address specified by that person might be within the vulnerable zone of one or more stationary sources, according to the data reported in RMPs. The VZIS is available on the internet. Members of the public who do not have access to the internet are able to obtain the same information by regular mail request to the EPA. An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. The OMB control numbers for EPAs regulations in 40 CFR are listed in 40 CFR part 9.

Abstract

To meet the goals and objectives that demonstrate the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPAs) and the Administrations commitment to achieving environmental justice and embedding environmental justice into Agency programs, the Environmental Justice Thriving Communities Grantmaking Program provides about $600 million in 11 cooperative agreements funding to Grantmakers who will function as pass-through entities for the Environmental Justice Thriving Communities Subgrants (2 CFR Parts 200 and 1500). Each Grantmaker will collaborate with EPA to design and build their own processes to receive and evaluate applications to fund the initial development of community-led environmental justice projects.Emergency Justfication:With this Information Collection Request (ICR), EPA seeks emergency clearance by October 31, 2024 for six Grantmakers to solicit applications for their first round of subgrants to be launched in October 2024. EPA cannot reasonably comply with the normal clearance procedures because the time between the Grantmakers receipt of their funding awards and the launch of their subaward programs (3 months) does not allow sufficient time to obtain PRA clearance using the standard ICR process (which typically takes 6-9 months). Collection of the information requested under this emergency clearance (i.e., applications) is essential for the Grantmakers to have a mechanism for selecting and distributing subaward grants to fund environmental justice projects in underserved communities, thus fulfilling the central objective of the program. The six-month emergency clearance period will cover the first round of subaward applications that will be solicited by six Grantmakers in October 2024. Subsequent rounds of applications for these six Grantmakers will be authorized via a Standard ICR package for the Grantmaking Program that will be submitted for review via the standard ICR approval process.

Abstract

The collection of information set forth under 49 CFR part 234, subpart E (§§ 234.303 and 234.311) is used by FRA to ensure that the Congressional mandate to require railroads to establish and maintain a toll-free telephone service to report unsafe conditions at highway-rail and pathway grade crossings is carried out. This information is used by railroads to investigate and respond to unsafe conditions and thereby reduce the risk of accidents/incidents and corresponding casualties and property damage at such crossings. Additionally, law enforcement authorities use the information to direct vehicular traffic or carry out other activities to maintain safety at the highway-rail grade crossing or pathway grade crossing. This collection of information is collected as needed and it involves both reporting and recordkeeping requirements.

Pub.L. 112 - 43 203(o) (View Law)

Abstract

The United States and Panama negotiated the U.S.-Panama Trade Promotion Agreement (”the Agreement”), which was implemented into U.S. law by the United States-Panama Trade Promotion Agreement Implementation Act (“the Act”) [Public Law 112-43]. The Agreement entered into force on October 31, 2012. Under the provisions of the Act, textile and apparel goods must contain fibers, yarns, and fabrics produced in Panama or the United States to receive duty-free tariff treatment. The Agreement also provides for the establishment of a list of specific fibers, yarns, and fabrics that are not available in commercial quantities in a timely manner from producers in the United States or Panama. Articles containing these commercially unavailable fibers, yarns, and fabrics are entitled to duty-free or preferential duty treatment despite containing inputs not produced in the United States or Panama. The list of commercially unavailable fabrics, yarns, and fibers may be changed pursuant to the commercial availability provision of the Agreement and the Act. Under Section 203(o) of the Act (“the commercial availability provision”), interested entities from Panama or the United States have the right to request that a specific fiber, yarn, or fabric be added to, or removed from, the list of commercially unavailable fibers, yarns, and fabrics. Section 203(o) of the Act requires that the President establish procedures for parties to follow when exercising the right to make these requests. The President delegated the responsibility for publishing the procedures and administering commercial availability requests to the Committee for the Implementation of Textile Agreements (“CITA”), which issues procedures and acts on requests through the Office of Textiles and Apparel (“OTEXA”). In accordance with the commercial availability provision, CITA has implemented procedures to collect certain information about the technical specifications of certain fibers, yarns, or fabrics and the production capabilities of U.S. textile suppliers to determine whether certain fibers, yarns, or fabrics are available in commercial quantities in a timely manner in the United States. The intent of these procedures is to foster trade in U.S. and Panamanian textile and apparel articles by allowing non-originating fibers, yarns, and fabrics to be placed on or removed from a list of items not available in commercial quantities, in a timely manner, and in a manner that is consistent with normal business practice. To that end, these procedures are intended to facilitate the timely transmission of requests for commercial availability determinations and offers to supply the products that are the subject of the requests; have the market indicate the availability of the supply of the subject products; make available promptly, to interested entities and parties, information received regarding the requests for products and offers to supply; ensure wide participation by interested entities and parties; provide careful scrutiny of information provided to substantiate order requests and responses of offers to supply; and provide timely public dissemination of information used by CITA in making commercial availability determinations. CITA must collect certain information about fabric, yarn, or fiber technical specifications and the production capabilities of Panamanian and U.S. textile producers to determine whether certain fabrics, yarns, or fibers are available in commercial quantities in a timely manner in the United States or Panama, subject to Section 203(o) of the Act.
