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.

Application for Reference and Equivalent Method Determination (Renewal)

Key Information

Abstract

To determine compliance with the NAAQS, State air monitoring agencies are required to use, in their air quality monitoring networks, air monitoring methods that have been formally designated by the EPA as either reference or equivalent methods under EPA regulations at 40 CFR part 53. A manufacturer or seller of an air monitoring method (e.g. an air monitoring sampler or analyzer) that seeks to obtain such EPA designation of one of its products must carry out prescribed tests of the method. The test results and other information must then be submitted to the EPA in the form of an application for a reference or equivalent method determination in accordance with 40 CFR part 53. The EPA uses this information, under the provisions of Part 53, to determine whether the particular method should be designated as either a reference or equivalent method. After a method is designated, the applicant must also maintain records of the names and mailing addresses of all ultimate purchasers of all analyzers or samplers sold as designated methods under the method designation. If the method designated is a method for fine particulate matter (PM2.5) and coarse particulate matter (PM10-2.5), the applicant must also submit a checklist signed by an ISO-certified auditor to indicate that the samplers or analyzers sold as part of the designated method are manufactured in an ISO 9001-registered facility. Also, an applicant must submit a minor application to seek approval for any proposed modifications to previously designated methods.

Electronic Submission of Medicare Graduate Medical Education (GME) Affiliation Agreements (CMS-10326)

Key Information

Abstract

As discussed in the FY2011 Inpatient Prospective Payment System final rule, we will allow hospitals to electronically submit the copy of the affiliation agreement that is required to be sent to the CMS Central Office. The electronic submission process consists of either an email mailbox or a Web site where hospitals must submit their Medicare GME affiliation agreements to the CMS Central Office to a designated online mailbox. A copy of the Medicare GME affiliation agreement must be received through the electronic system no later than 11:59 p.m. on July 1 of each academic year. The electronic affiliation agreement must be submitted either as a scanned copy or a Printer-Friendly Display (PDF) version of that hard copy agreement; we will not accept an agreement in any electronic format that could be subject to manipulation. The scanned and/or PDF format will enable CMS to ensure that the agreements are signed and dated as required in the regulations at 42 CFR 413.75. Hospitals will have the option to continue to submit a hard copy of its affiliation agreement to the CMS Central Office. In addition, each fiscal intermediary or MAC will continue to have the authority to specify its requirements for submittal of the Medicare GME affiliation agreement by hospitals that are part of the affiliation.

Employee Retirement Income Security Act Blackout Period Notice

Key Information

Abstract

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act (SOA), enacted on July 30, 2002, amended ERISA to include a blackout period disclosure requirement in subsection 101(i). This information collection requires administrators of individual account pension plans (e.g., a profit sharing plan, 401(k) type plan or money purchase pension plan) to provide at least 30 days advance written notice to the affected participants and beneficiaries in advance of any “blackout period” during which their existing rights to direct or diversify their investments under the plan, or obtain a loan or distribution from the plan will be temporarily suspended. The term “blackout period” is generally defined as any period of more than three consecutive business days during which time the ability of plan participants and beneficiaries to direct or diversify investments or to obtain loans or distributions is suspended, limited or restricted.

Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 Technical Release 1991-1

Key Information

Abstract

Section 101(e) of ERISA establishes notice requirements that must be satisfied before an employer may transfer excess assets from a defined benefit pension plan to a retiree health benefit account, as permitted under the conditions set forth in section 420 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code). The notice requirements of ERISA section 101(e) are two-fold. First, subsection (e)(1) requires plan administrators to provide advance written notification of such transfers to participants and beneficiaries. Second, subsection (e)(2)(A) requires employers to provide advance written notification of such transfers to the Secretaries of Labor and the Treasury, the plan administrator, and each employee organization representing participants in the plan. Both notices must be given at least 60 days before the transfer date. The two subsections prescribe the information to be included in each type of notice and further give the Secretary of Labor the authority to prescribe how notice to participants and beneficiaries must be given, and how any additional reporting requirements are deemed necessary. On May 8, 1991, the Department published ERISA Technical Release 91-1, to provide guidance on how to satisfy the notice requirements prescribed by ERISA section 101(e). The Technical Release made two changes in the statutory requirements for the second type of notice. First, it required the notice to include a filing date and the intended asset transfer date. Second, it simplified the statutory filing requirements by providing that filing with the Department of Labor would be deemed sufficient notice to both the Department and the Department of the Treasury as required under the statute.

Declaration of Persons Who Performed Repairs or Alterations

Key Information

Abstract

This Declaration is used by CBP to ensure duty-free status for entries covering articles repaired abroad. It must be filed by importers claiming duty-free status. The "Declaration of Person Who Performed Repairs or Alterations," as required by 19 CFR 10.8, is used in connection with the entry of articles entered under subheadings 9802.00.40 and 9802.00.50, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS, https://hts.usitc.gov/current). Articles entered under these HTSUS provisions are articles that were in the U.S., were exported temporarily for repairs or alterations, and are returned to the United States. Upon their return, duty is only assessed on the value of the repairs performed abroad and not on the full value of the article. The declaration under 19 CFR 10.8 includes information such as a description of the article and the repairs or alterations; the value of the article and the repairs or alterations; and a declaration by the owner, importer, consignee, or agent having knowledge of the pertinent facts. The information in this declaration is used by CBP to determine the value of the repairs or alterations, and to assess duty only on the value of those repairs or alterations. These requirements apply to the trade community who are familiar with CBP regulations and the tariff schedules and are required by law to provide this declaration.

Boundary and Annexation Survey (BAS)

Key Information

Abstract

The Boundary and Annexation Survey (BAS) provides eligible governments, which include tribal, state, and general-purpose local governments, an opportunity to review the Census Bureau’s legal boundary data to ensure the Census Bureau has the correct boundary, name, and status information and make necessary updates. BAS also allows for the review and update of census designated place (CDP) boundaries and linear features. It fulfills the agency’s responsibility as part of the National Spatial Data Infrastructure, for which the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Circular A-16 designates the Census Bureau as the lead federal agency for maintaining national data about legal government boundaries, as well as statistical and administrative boundaries. It also supports the geospatial data steward responsibilities of the Geospatial Data Act, the Evidence Act, OMB E-Gov, the Federal Geographic Data Committee, Data.gov, GeoPlatform.gov, the National Map, the Geographic Names Information System, and the Geospatial One-Stop. The Census Bureau uses the boundaries collected during BAS to tabulate data for various censuses and surveys including the decennial census, American Community Survey (ACS), and Population Estimates Program (PEP). It also uses the boundaries collected through BAS to support other programs such as the Redistricting Data Program, the Economic Census, the Geographically Updated Population Certification Program, and the Special Census program. Other federal programs also rely on accurate boundaries collected through BAS. The Department of Housing and Urban Development uses boundaries to determine jurisdictional eligibility for various grant programs, such as the Community Development Block Grant program. In addition, the Department of Agriculture uses boundaries to determine eligibility for various rural housing and economic development programs.

The Redistricting Data Program

Key Information

Abstract

The Redistricting Data Program (RDP) is one of many voluntary geographic partnership programs that collects boundaries and attributes to update the U.S. Census Bureau’s geographic database of addresses, streets, and boundaries. The Census Bureau uses its geographic database, i.e., the Master Address File/Topologically Integrated Geographic and Encoding and Referencing (MAF/TIGER) System, to link demographic data from surveys and the decennial census to locations and areas, such as cities, congressional and legislative districts, and counties. To tabulate statistics by localities, the Census Bureau must have accurate addresses, streets, boundaries, and attributes. The RDP is executed under the provisions of Title 13, Section 141(c) of the United States Code (U.S.C.). Under the provisions of Public Law 94-171, as amended (Title 13, United States Code (U.S.C.), Section 141(c)), “[t]he officers or public bodies having initial responsibility for the legislative apportionment or districting of each State may, not later than 3 years before the decennial census date, submit to the Secretary a plan identifying the geographic areas for which specific tabulations of population are desired.” The Census Bureau is requesting a clearance to continue activities included in the RDP. As the current OMB Control Number 0607-0988 clearance will expire in November 2024, the new clearance will allow the Census Bureau to provide RDP-specific materials and procedures to participants during the fiscal years (FY) 2025, 2026, and 2027. These activities include the solicitation of non-partisan liaisons, the collection of Post-2020 Census Congressional and State Legislative District Plans, and the Block Boundary Suggestion Project.

National Institute of Drug Abuse (NIDA)Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development Study (ABCD Study®) – Audience Feedback Teams

Key Information

Abstract

This document reflects a revision to a package (0925-0781) which was originally submitted for approval in March 2024. The Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development Study (ABCD Study®) is the largest long-term study of brain and cognitive development in children across the United States. Findings from the Study will greatly increase our understanding of environmental, social, and genetic factors that affect brain and cognitive development. One of the Study’s key missions is to collect data that will inform just and equitable policies to elevate the quality of life for all youth, especially those who have been historically marginalized. The ABCD Study will require up to two rounds of pre-testing per year in order to enhance participant experience and ensure that data collection is not negatively impacted by incomplete or missing responses or unclear instructions/communications. When feedback on certain stimuli is complete, the stimuli will be removed from data collection instruments (attachments G-M) and replaced with new or revised stimuli to reflect the ABCD Study’s evolving needs for pre-testing. The revision to this information collection denotes the plan to update the stimuli included in data collection instruments (web surveys, group discussion guides, online bulletin board guides, or at-home materials review) up to twice per year. This includes adding new stimuli when pre-testing needs are identified, updating stimuli to test revisions to the stimuli, and removing and replacing stimuli when feedback is complete.

Registration for EFAST-2 Credentials

Key Information

Abstract

The Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA) section 104 requires administrators of employee benefits plans (pension and welfare plans) and employers sponsoring certain fringe benefit plans and other plans of deferred compensation to file returns/reports annually with the Secretary of Labor concerning the financial condition and operation of plans. Reporting requirements are satisfied by filing the Form 5500 in accordance with its instructions and the related regulations. Form 5500 filings are processed under the ERISA Filing Acceptance System 2 (EFAST-2), which is designed to simplify and expedite the receipt and processing of the Form 5500 by relying on internet-based forms and electronic filing technologies. In order to file electronically, employee benefit plan Filing authors, Schedule authors, Filing signers, Form 5500 transmitters, and entities developing software to complete and/or transmit the Form 5500 are required to register for EFAST-2 credentials through the EFAST2 website. The information requested for registration includes: Applicant type (Filing Author, Filing Signer, Schedule Author, Transmitter, or software developer); mailing address; fax number (optional); email address; company name, contact person; and daytime telephone number. Registrants must also provide an answer to a challenge question (“What is your date of birth?” or “Where is your place of birth?”), which enables users to retrieve forgotten credentials. In addition, registrants must accept a Privacy Agreement; PIN Agreement; and, under penalty of perjury, a Signature Agreement.

Establishment Information Form, Wage Data Collection Form, and Wage Data Collection Continuation Form

Key Information

Abstract

Under section 5341 of title 5, United States Code, the pay of Federal trade, craft, and laboring employees is to be maintained in line with prevailing private sector levels for comparable work within a local wage area. The pay system for these employees is known as the Federal Wage System (FWS). The pay of FWS employees is fixed and adjusted on an annual basis. The U.S. Office of Personnel Management (OPM) has designated the Department of Defense (DOD) as the lead agency which sponsors and conducts annual wage surveys in numerous geographic areas to determine local prevailing rates and set pay for FWS employees. FWS wage surveys are conducted by DOD under regulatory guidelines established by OPM in part 532 of title 5, Code of Federal Regulations. The forms developed by OPM for FWS wage surveys are the Establishment Information Form, the Wage Data Collection Form, and the Wage Data Collection Continuation Form. The information collected on these forms enables DOD to establish the rates of pay for FWS employees based on prevailing rates of pay in the private sector for similar levels of work. OPM developed the data elements to be collected by DOD. DOD is authorized to vary the layout of the forms if necessary to meet its needs. The forms are printed by DOD. The forms are used as interview guidelines by Federal employees who collect data necessary to determine local prevailing rates. Federal employees complete the forms rather than private sector establishment officials.

Quarterly Survey of Public Pensions

Key Information

Abstract

The survey provides a rich source of data on public retirement systems administered by state and local governments in the United States and is used to collect data on the assets, revenues and expenditures of the 100 largest systems, as measured by the system assets. This survey provides the quarterly change in composition of the securities holdings of the defined benefit public employee retirement systems component of the economy. The Federal Reserve Board uses these data to track the public sector portion of the Flow of Funds Accounts. Additionally, the data are used by a variety of government officials, academics, students and non-profit organizations to analyze trends in public employee retirement and the impact of retirement obligations on the fiscal well-being of state and local governments.

Abstract

The Center for Substance Abuse Prevention (CSAP) Online Reporting Tool (CORT) instruments will be used to monitor CSAP discretionary grant programs through administration of a suite of data collection instruments for grant compliance and programmatic performance monitoring. This request for data collection will replace OMB No. 0930-0354: Division of State Programs – Management Reporting Tool. Data collected through the CORT will provide critical information to SAMHSA’s Government Project Officers related to grant oversight, including barriers and facilitators that the grantees have experienced, and an understanding of the technical assistance needed to help grantees implement their programs. The information also provides a mechanism to ensure grantees are meeting the requirements of the grant funding announcement as outlined in their notice of grant award. In addition, the tool reflects CSAP’s desire to elicit pertinent program level data that can be used not only to guide future programs and practices, but also to respond to stakeholder, congressional and agency inquiries

NSPS for Commercial and Industrial Solid Waste Incineration (CISWI) units (40 CFR part 60, subpart CCCC) (Renewal)

Key Information

Abstract

The New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) for Commercial and Industrial Solid Waste Incineration (CISWI) Units (40 CFR Part 60, Subpart CCCC) were proposed on November 30, 1999, promulgated on December 01, 2000, and most-recently amended on: February 7, 2013; June 23, 2016; and April 16, 2019. The 2013 amendment re-established emission limits and expanded the rule to cover these CISWI subcategories: energy recovery units; waste burning kilns; incinerators; and small, remote incinerators. The 2016 amendment finalized reconsiderations to certain aspects to the 2013 amendment and finalized actions on the following four topics: the definition of continuous emission monitoring system (CEMS) data during startup and shutdown periods; the particulate matter (PM) limit for the waste-burning kiln subcategory; the fuel variability factor (FVF) for coal-burning energy recovery units (ERUs); and the definition of kiln. The 2019 amendments further clarified implementation of the 2016 standards, including certain testing and monitoring issues and inconsistencies, and editorial corrections and errors within the rules that required clarification or correction. These regulations apply to Commercial and Industrial Solid Waste Incineration (CISWI) units that either commenced construction after June 4, 2010, or commenced reconstruction or modification after August 7, 2013. This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR Part 60, Subpart CCCC. In general, all NSPS standards require initial notifications, performance tests, and periodic reports by the owners/operators of the affected facilities. They are also required to maintain records of the occurrence and duration of any startup, shutdown, or malfunction in the operation of an affected facility, or any period during which the monitoring system is inoperative. These notifications, reports, and records are essential in determining compliance, and are required of all affected facilities subject to NSPS.

State Maternal Health Innovation (State MHI) Maternal Health Annual Report (MHAR)

Key Information

Abstract

The State Maternal Health Innovation (MHI) program aims to reduce maternal mortality and severe maternal morbidity (SMM) by improving access to comprehensive and continuous, culturally congruent, and high-quality preconception, prenatal, labor and delivery, and/or postpartum care for those populations with the highest unmet needs (as justified by state level data); enhancing state maternal health surveillance and data capacity; and advancing equity and reducing disparities in maternal health through improving social determinants of health (SDOH), workforce, training, and other appropriate means. The State MHI program is authorized by 42 U.S.C. § 701(a)(2) (Title V, § 501(a)(2) of the Social Security Act), which authorizes awards for special projects of regional and national significance (SPRANS) in maternal and child health. SPRANS projects support HRSA’s mission to improve the health and well-being of America’s mothers, children, and families. HRSA directly funds states to implement maternal health innovation projects. The Maternal Health Annual Report (MHAR) will be completed by all grantees who receive funding under the program. This information will be used to monitor grantees’ progress in accessing, analyzing, and using state-level maternal health data and to summarize the data focused work that grantees accomplish.
