Change Requests

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.

Generic Performance Progress Reports

Key Information

Abstract

This information collection request (ICR) is to extend data collection under the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) Generic Program-Specific Performance Progress Report (PPR) (0970-0490). This overarching generic has allowed ACF program offices to collect performance and progress data from recipients who receive funding from ACF under a discretionary award. This information is required under 45 CFR 75.342, monitoring and reporting program performance; 45 CFR 75.301, performance measurement; and the GPRA Modernization Act of 2010 (Pub.L. 111-352, Sec 12). This current request is for an extension for the overarching generic and ongoing generic information collections under the umbrella. The request also expands the overarching generic to include the collection of performance and progress data from recipients who receive funding from ACF under a non-discretionary award.

Inpatient Psychiatric Facility Quality Reporting Program (CMS-10432)

Key Information

Abstract

Pursuant to section 1886(s)(4)(C) of the Social Security Act as added and amended by sections 3401 and 10322 of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA) and further amended by section 4125(c) of the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2023, starting in FY 2014 (that is, October 1, 2013 through September 30, 2014) and for subsequent fiscal years, IPFs paid under the IPF PPS shall submit pre-defined quality measures to the CMS. Such data shall be submitted in a form and manner, and at a time specified by the Secretary. Section 1886(s)(4)(A) of the Act provides that IPFs that fail to submit data on the selected quality measures and comply with other administrative requirements will have their IPF prospective payment system (PPS) payment updates reduced by 2.0 percentage points. This is a revision of the currently approved information collection request. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services’ (CMS’) quality reporting programs promote higher quality, more efficient healthcare for Medicare beneficiaries by collecting and reporting on quality-of-care metrics. This information is made available to consumers, both to empower Medicare beneficiaries and inform decision-making, as well as to incentivize healthcare facilities to make continued improvements. Specifically, CMS has implemented quality measure reporting programs for multiple settings, including for the Inpatient Psychiatric Facility (IPF) setting, to achieve its overarching priorities and initiatives, including the National Quality Strategy and the Meaningful Measure 2.0 Framework. In particular, Meaningful Measures 2.0 promotes innovation and modernization of all aspects of quality to better address health care priorities and gaps, emphasize digital quality measurement, and promote patient perspectives by supporting five interrelated goals: (1) empower consumers to make good health care choices through patient-directed quality measures and public transparency, (2) leverage quality measures to promote health equity and close gaps in care, (3) streamline quality measurement, (4) leverage measures to drive outcome improvement through public reporting and payment programs, and (5) improve quality measure efficiency by transitioning to digital measures and using advanced data analytics. The information collection requirements for the FY 2014 through FY 2028 program years (that is, data submitted from CY 2013 through CY 2027) are currently approved under OMB control number 0938-1171 (expiration date January 31, 2027). This request covers updates to the data collection requirements beginning with the FY 2026 payment determination (that is data submitted in CY 2025) and subsequent years.

CORES Update/Change Form, FCC Form 161

Key Information

Abstract

The Public Safety and Homeland Security Bureau (PSHSB or Bureau) is submitting a non-substantive change request to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) in order to establish mandatory electronic filing of System Security and Integrity Policies and Procedures (SSI Plans) by covered entities under the Communications Assistance for Law Enforcement Act (CALEA) through the new CALEA Electronic Filing System (CEFS) (OMB Control No. 3060-0809). CEFS requires users to register with and use the Commission Registration System (OMB Control Nos. 3060-0917 and 3060-0918) and to electronically file Requests for Confidential Treatment (OMB Control No. 3060-0862). When mandatory electronic filing becomes effective, SSI Plans will be required to be submitted electronically through CEFS: https://www.fcc.gov/cefs. When mandatory electronic filing becomes effective, paper versions of SSI Plans will no longer be accepted. Section 1.20005 of the Commission’s rules will be updated to reflect this change. Other than mandatory electronic filing, there are no other changes to this information collection. PSHSB issued the order to amend section 1.20005 to establish mandatory filing and the new rule will become effective 30 days after publication in the Federal Register. This information that applicants (entities) submit on FCC Form 161 is used to change or update information in the CORES system for entity's name, address, Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN), telephone number, email, fax, contact representative address, telephone number, email and fax. The Commission Registration System (CORES) assigns each entity doing business with the Commission a FCC Registration Number (FRN). The FRN is used to collect and to report any delinquent amounts arising from such applicant's (entity's) relationship with the FCC. The respondents are anyone doing business with the FCC. Please see the non-substantive change request justification for the reasoning behind this submission to the Office of Management and Budget for review and approval.

Generic Information Collection Plan for the Collection of Qualitative Feedback on Bureau Service Delivery

Key Information

Abstract

This generic information collection plan provides for the collection of qualitative feedback from consumers, financial institutions, and stakeholders on a wide range of services the Bureau provides in an efficient, timely manner, in accordance with the Bureau's commitment to improving service delivery. By qualitative feedback, the Bureau means information that provides useful insights on, for example, comprehension, usability, perceptions, and opinions, but are not statistical surveys that yield quantitative results that can be generalized to the population of study. The Bureau expects this feedback to include insights into consumer, financial institution, or stakeholder perceptions, experiences, and expectations, provide an early warning of issues with service, or focus attention on areas where communication, training or changes in operations might improve delivery of products or services. These collections will allow for ongoing, collaborative, and actionable communications between the Bureau and consumers, financial institutions, and stakeholders. It will also allow feedback to contribute directly to the improvement of program management.

Key Information

Abstract

This clearance covers the information that offerors must submit to comply with the following FAR requirements: FAR 52.237-10, Identification of Uncompensated Overtime. This provision requires offerors, when professional or technical services are acquired on the basis of the number of hours to be provided, to identify uncompensated overtime hours in excess of 40 hours per week, whether at the prime or subcontract level. This includes uncompensated overtime hours that are in indirect cost pools for personnel whose regular hours are normally charged direct. 2. Use of the Information. The contracting officer will use the collected information to perform an adequate cost realism analysis of the offerors’ proposed labor rates. Proposals which include unrealistically low labor rates, or which do not otherwise demonstrate cost realism, will be considered by the contracting officer in a risk assessment and evaluated appropriately. The primary purpose for obtaining the information and using it during the source selection process is to discourage the use of uncompensated overtime.

Ombudsman Post-Examination Surveys

Key Information

Abstract

Onsite examinations help ensure the stability of insured depository institutions by identifying undue risks and weak risk management practices. Examination activities center on evaluating an institution’s capital, assets, management, earnings, liquidity, and sensitivity to market risk. Evaluating a bank’s adherence to laws and regulations is also an important part of bank examinations and is given high priority by Congress and bank supervisors. Bank examinations also play a key role in the supervisory process by helping the FDIC identify the cause and severity of problems at individual banks and emerging risks in the financial-services industry. The accurate identification of existing and emerging risks helps the FDIC develop effective corrective measures for individual institutions and broader supervisory strategies for the industry. The purpose of the post- examination surveys is to gauge bankers’ views on the effectiveness and quality of FDIC Safety and Soundness and Consumer Compliance examinations, as well as to identify ways to improve the examination process. Respondents will be asked to voluntarily rate the efficiency of the pre-examination process; examiners’ professionalism and understanding of the laws and regulations; the examination process; and examination report quality. Respondents will also be allowed to provide feedback on any areas for improvement and will be given an option to have someone from the FDIC’s Office of the Ombudsman contact the institution confidentially about its recent examination or any other matters.

Ground Control Plans for Surface Coal Mines and Surface Work Areas of Underground Coal Mines

Key Information

Abstract

Each operator of a surface coal mine is required under 30 CFR 77.1000 to establish and follow a ground control plan that is consistent with prudent engineering design and which will ensure safe working conditions. The mine operator is required by § 77.1000-1 to file the ground control plan under § 77.1000 for highwalls, pits and spoil banks with the appropriate District Manager. The mining methods employed by the operator are selected to ensure highwall, pit, and spoil bank stability. In the event of a highwall failure or material dislodgment, there may be very little time to escape possible injury; therefore, preventive measures must be taken. Each plan is based on the type of strata expected to be encountered, the height and angle of highwalls and spoil banks, and the equipment to be used at the mine. The plan is used to show how the mine operator will maintain safe conditions around the highwalls, pits, and spoil banks. Each plan is reviewed by MSHA to ensure that highwalls, pits, and spoil banks are maintained in a safe condition through the use of sound engineering design.
