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.

Provider Network Coverage Data Collection (CMS-10594)

Key Information

Abstract

Proposed §156.230(e)(1) would require that QHP issuers make a good faith effort to provide written notice of discontinuation of a provider 30 days prior to the effective date of the change or otherwise as soon as practicable, to enrollees who are patients seen on a regular basis by the provider or who receive primary care from the provider whose contract is discontinuing. This is a third-party disclosure requirement. CMS is not proposing to collect this notice from QHP issuers in FFMs, therefore we are not specifying ways in which we will use the data. The purpose of this notice is to provide consumers information on when their providers will no longer be available in-network in their QHP. In proposed 156.230(f)(2), we require QHP issuers to provide a notice to enrollees of the possibility of out-of-network charges from an out-of-network provider in an in-network setting at least 10 calendar days prior to the service being provided to avoid counting the out-of-network costs against to the annual limitation on cost sharing.

Risk-Based Asset Management Plan

Key Information

Abstract

Under 23 U.S.C. 119(e) and implementing regulations at 23 CFR part 515, State departments of transportation (State DOTs) are required to develop Risk-Based asset management plans (AMPs) for the National Highway System (NHS) to improve or preserve the condition of the assets and the performance of the NHS. As part of this requirement, each State DOT must annually submit information to FHWA that demonstrates that the State DOT has implemented an AMP that meets the requirements of 23 U.S.C. 119(e) and 23 CFR part 515, and every 4 years, each State DOT must submit its processes for the development of its AMP to FHWA for certification and recertification every four years following the year of initial certification (23 U.S.C. 119(e)(6)). Section 11105(3) of the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (Public Law 117-58) added a requirement that the required risk management and lifecycle cost analyses in AMPs consider extreme weather and resilience. A State DOT not in compliance with these requirements receives a penalty in the form of reduced Federal share for projects carried out under the National Highway Performance Program.

EIA-860S: Backup Generator Data Integration

Key Information

Abstract

Data collection comprising the air permitting offices of states, the District of Columbia, and the five major U.S. territories to supplement the EIA-860 Sampling Frame. EIA has a critical need to enhance the completeness and accuracy of the frame for the EIA-860. This proposed information collection request addresses these gaps by acquiring existing backup generator data from all 50 states, the District of Columbia, and five U.S. territories via air permitting offices, which regulate generators under the Clean Air Act, rather than imposing new direct reporting burdens on operators. This administrative data acquisition will enhance the EIA-860 frame's completeness and accuracy through reconciliation and validation, without altering the survey's fundamental purpose and structure in any way.Emergency Justfication:EIA is making this emergency request at a time of unprecedented increases in electricity demand. In January 2026, we forecasted that electricity demand would increase in both 2026 and 2027, which would mark “the first four years of consecutive growth since 2005–07, and the strongest four-year period of growth since the turn of the century.” President Donald J. Trump has issued three executive orders with direct bearing on questions of urgency, public harm, and unanticipated events related to this demand growth. Because of these reasons, EIA has a critical need to enhance the completeness and accuracy of the frame for the EIA-860. While the survey generally excludes smaller distributed generation, backup generators are included if they meet the 1 MW threshold within a surveyed facility. However, many backup generators are often excluded or inconsistently captured due to capacity limitations or intermittent operation, revealing data gaps. The current sampling frame is unlikely to represent a complete enumeration of backup generators. Our assessment indicates a potential underestimation of the generator population, possibly by several hundred to over a thousand units. The current lack of comprehensive data on backup generators, particularly smaller emergency units, represents a significant gap in our understanding of total U.S. grid capacity and resilience. This gap could hinder effective emergency response and grid management during periods of stress, potentially leading to widespread power outages, economic disruption, and the loss of human life.

National Communication System for Runaway and Homeless Youth Data Collection

Key Information

Abstract

The Family and Youth Services Bureau’s (FYSB) Runaway and Homeless Youth Division has a legislative requirement to fund a National Communication System, which is currently operated by the National Runaway Safeline (NRS). The NRS provides information, referral services, crisis intervention, and prevention resources to vulnerable youth and families of youth at risk of running away and/or becoming homeless at no cost. When necessary, the NRS refers runaway and homeless youth to shelters, counseling, medical assistance, and other vital services. The NRS collects information from all contacts with youth and adults connecting with the NRS (i.e., parents, family members, legal guardians, service providers) on a voluntary basis to inform crisis services and develop an annual report on the information collected during calls, chats, emails, and forum posts from young people who reached out to the NRS’s crisis services. The Runaway and Homeless Youth Act (RHYA), as reauthorized by the Reconnecting Homeless Youth Act of 2008 (P.L.110-378) through FY 2013 and more recently reauthorized by the Juvenile Justice Reform Act through FY 2019, mandates the Secretary shall make grants for a national communication system to assist runaway and homeless youth in communicating with their families and with service providers. The NRS is required to have a system for collecting and analyzing data on calls, emails, chat, texts, and online messages received as well as other information, such as prevention resources, referrals, demographics, and visitors to the NRS website. The NRS must submit monthly and semi-annual reports that includes the following: • Number of calls received, answered, and missed. • Number of chats, emails, and texts received; number of chats, emails, and texts answered; and number of chats, emails, and texts that were missed and did not receive a response, in which the users are youth in crisis, runaway youth, and youth experiencing homelessness. • Number of parents, legal guardians, and service providers contacting the NRS and the type of resources, interventions, and technical support/assistance requested and provided. • Number and type of prevention materials disseminated to communities, especially to underserved populations. • Number and type of unique visitors to the NRS’ website. • Information on referrals provided and where youth were referred for services. • Information on the callers' or users' demographics and where they were located when contacting the NRS. • Information on the prevention materials developed and disseminated by the NRS. • Information and analysis of the latest trends and their impact on runaway prevention. The NRS uses two forms, one form to collect relevant information disclosed during calls, emails, and forum posts, and then a second form to collect information from chats. All data will be provided to FYSB in the aggregate and no personally identifiable information are collected. This nonsubstantive change request is to remove an outdated Executive Order referenced as an Authorizing Statute.

Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS) 2025-26 through 2026-27

Key Information

Abstract

The National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) seeks authorization from OMB to make a change to the Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS) data collection. IPEDS is a web-based data collection system designed to collect basic data from all postsecondary institutions in the United States and the other jurisdictions. The IPEDS data collection enables the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) to report on key dimensions of postsecondary education such as enrollments, degrees and other awards earned, tuition and fees, average net price, student financial aid, graduation rates, student outcomes, revenues and expenditures, faculty salaries, and staff employed. The IPEDS web-based data collection system was implemented in 2000-01. In 2022-23, IPEDS collected data from 5,983 Title IV postsecondary institutions in the United States and the other jurisdictions. All Title IV institutions are required to respond to IPEDS (Section 490 of the Higher Education Amendments of 1992 [P.L. 102-325]). IPEDS allows other (non-Title IV) institutions to participate on a voluntary basis; approximately 200 non-Title IV institutions elect to respond each year. Institution closures and mergers have led to a decrease in the number of institutions in the IPEDS universe over the past few years. Due to these fluctuations, combined with the addition of new institutions, NCES uses rounded estimates for the number of institutions in the respondent burden calculations for the upcoming years (estimated 6,000 Title IV institutions plus 200 non-title IV institutions for a total of 6,200 institutions estimated to submit IPEDS data during the 2024-25 through 2026-27 IPEDS data collections). IPEDS data are available to the public through the College Navigator and IPEDS Use the Data websites. The current clearance covers the 2022-23 through 2024-25 collections and is due to expire on August 31, 2025. We are requesting to make changes to multiple survey components and other updates to the identification, cross-cutting terminology, and the glossary. The largest changes in this package are (1) the addition of a new Cost (CST) survey component, which combines components taken from the Student Financial Aid (SFA) and Institutional Characteristics (IC) components and combines them with added questions to determine how and make publicly available more information about how postsecondary institutions ask for information above and beyond the FAFSA; and (2) the planned elimination of the Academic Libraries (AL) survey beginning in the 2025-26 administration. As part of the 30D public comment period review, NCES has added an Appendix E, containing NCES responses to 60D public comments. Further, NCES requests that IPEDS data submitters and other stakeholders respond to the directed questions found in Appendix D of this submission.

Abstract

The Indian Self-Determination and Education Assistance Act (ISDEAA), as authorized by 25 USC 450 et. seq., authorizes and directs the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) to contract or compact with, and fund Indian Tribes and Tribal organizations that choose to take over the operation of programs, services, functions and activities (PSFAs) that would otherwise be operated by the BIA. These PSFAs include programs such as law enforcement, social services, and tribal priority allocation programs. Congressional appropriations are divided among BIA and Tribes and Tribal organizations to pay for both the BIA’s direct operation of programs and for the operation of programs by Tribes and Tribal organizations through Self-Determination contracts and compacts. The regulations implementing ISDEAA are at 25 CFR 900. An Indian Tribe or Tribal organization is required to submit this information each time that it proposes to contract with BIA under the ISDEAA. The information collected is used by the BIA to determine applicant eligibility, evaluate applicant capabilities, protect the service population, safeguard Federal funds and resources, and permit the BIA to administer and evaluate Tribal ISDEAA contract programs.

Confidential Business Information Claims under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA) (Non-Substantive Change)

Key Information

Abstract

EPA is finalizing new and amended requirements concerning the assertion and maintenance of claims of business confidentiality (also known as Confidential Business Information or CBI) under the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA), 15 U.S.C. 2601, et seq. The Frank R. Lautenberg Chemical Safety for the 21st Century Act, Pub. L. 114182 referred to in this Notice as Lautenberg), made significant amendments to TSCA including new provisions governing the assertion of CBI claims and requirements concerning Agency review and treatment of confidentiality claims. This final rule specifies procedures for submitting and supporting CBI claims in TSCA submissions, including substantiation requirements applicable at the time of submission, exemptions from the requirement to substantiate, electronic reporting enhancements (which include new electronic reporting requirements, as well as integration of TSCA requirements to provide certain certification statements, substantiation, and generic names when making confidentiality claims), and maintenance or withdrawal of confidentiality claims. The final rule also specifies Agency procedures for reviewing and communicating with TSCA submitters about confidentiality claims, including requirements for submitters to maintain contact information, procedures EPA will use to provide notices to submitters concerning their claims, and the manner in which EPA will notify submitters concerning the impending expiration of certain claims. The final rule includes new provisions, as well as amending and reorganizing existing provisions concerning assertion of confidentiality claims in order to conform to new requirements in Lautenberg. Most procedural requirements for asserting and maintaining a confidentiality claim are organized into a new part of the CFR, which would apply to any TSCA submission, except as modified by or elaborated on elsewhere in parts 704, 707, 716, 717, 720, 721, 723, 725, 770, or 790. The following submissions under TSCA will now have new or amended procedures for substantiated claims of confidentiality: TSCA Section 8(a); 40 CFR 704 TSCA Section 12(b) Notification of Export; 40 CFR 707.75(d) TSCA Section 8(d) Health and Safety Studies; 40 CFR 716.55(a) and (c) TSCA Section 8(c) Allegations of Adverse Effects; 40 CFR 717.19 TSCA Section 5 Premanufacture Notices (PMNs); 40 CFR 720.85 and 720.90 and 720 Subpart F TSCA Section 5 40 CFR 721 Significant New Use Rules (SNURs) TSCA Section 5 Polymer Exemption; 40 CFR 723.250(f); and Low Volume Exemptions 40 CFR 723.50 TSCA Section 5 microorganisms; 40 CFR 725 Subpart C TSCA Title VI Formaldehyde Emissions Standards for Composite Wood; 40 CFR 770 TSCA Section 4 Test Orders; 40 CFR 790

Abstract

FCC Rules require that applicants in the Experimental Radio Services submit FCC Form 702 when the legal right to control the use and operation of a station is to be transferred as a result of a voluntary or involuntary act of the grantee of a station authorization and; FCC Form 703 should be submitted whenever the applicant proposes to change the control of a station, as by transfer of stock ownership. The Commission uses the data to determine continued eligibility for licensees. Without this information, violations of ownership regulations would occur.

Key Information

Abstract

On October 24, 2018, the Commission released a Report and Order, FCC 18-149 in GN Docket No. 17-158, adopting limited changes to the rules governing Priority Access Licenses (PALs) in the 3550-3700 MHz (3.5 GHz) band, including larger license areas, longer license terms, renewability, and performance requirements. The Commission anticipated that the targeted changes made in its 2018 Report and Order will spur additional investment and broader deployment in the band, promote robust and efficient spectrum use, and help ensure the rapid deployment of advanced wireless technologies—including 5G—in the United States. The rule changes and information requirements contained in the Commission’s previous 3.5 GHz band orders—the 2015 Report and Order, FCC 15-47, and 2016 Order on Reconsideration and Second Report and Order, FCC 16-55, both in GN Docket No. 12-354—are also approved under this Office of Management and Budget (OMB) control number (3060-1211) and have not changed since OMB last approved them. Please see the previous OMB approvals for this collection to identify what else is covered by this collection. This supporting statement discusses only the performance requirements from the 2018 Report and Order. The Commission seeks approval from OMB for the information collection requirements contained in the 2018 Report and Order, FCC 18-149, stemming from the changes made to section 96.25(b) of it rules. The Commission revised section 96.25(b) to adopt performance requirements for Priority Access Licensees. Specifically, under the revised rule, Priority Access Licensees must provide substantial service in their license area by the end of the initial license term, i.e., at the end of 10 years. “Substantial service” is defined as service which is sound, favorable, and substantially above the level of mediocre service which might minimally warrant renewal. Failure by any licensee to meet this requirement will result in forfeiture of the license without further Commission action, and the licensee will be ineligible to regain it. Licensees shall demonstrate compliance with the performance requirement by filing a construction notification with the Commission in accordance with section 1.946(d) of the Commission’s rules. The licensee must certify whether it has met the performance requirement, and file supporting documentation, including description and demonstration of the bona fide service provided, electronic maps accurately depicting the boundaries of the license area and where in the license area the licensee provides service that meets the performance requirement, supporting technical documentation, any population-related assumptions or data used in determining the population covered by a service to the extent any were relied upon, and any other information the Wireless Telecommunications Bureau may prescribe by public notice. A licensee’s showing of substantial service may not rely on service coverage outside of the PAL Protection Areas of registered Citizens Broadband Radio Service Devices (CBSDs) or on deployments that are not reflected in Spectrum Access System (SAS) records of CBSD registrations.
