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.

Outcome and Assessment Information Set (OASIS-E2) (CMS-10545)

Key Information

Abstract

Abstract (2000 characters maximum) This request is for OMB PRA approval of a version update of the Outcome and Assessment Information Set (OASIS). The updated version of the OASIS item set is titled OASIS –E2 . OASIS is a core standard assessment data set that Home Health Agencies (HHAs) integrate into their own patient-specific, comprehensive assessment to identify each patient’s need for home care that meets the patient’s medical, nursing, rehabilitative, social, and discharge planning needs. Since 1999, the Medicare Conditions of Participation (CoPs) have mandated that HHAs use the OASIS data set when evaluating adult, non-maternity patients receiving skilled services. OASIS data are used for both home health quality measurement and payment adjustment. OASIS-E2 is scheduled for implementation on April 1, 2026, to comply with changes noted in the CY2025 HH Final Rule. The changes for OASIS-E2 include the removal of the A1250 Transportation item which will be replaced by the revised A1255 Transportation item align with an item collected in other CMS programs. Subregulatory changes include CMS adding the B1000 Hearing, B0200 Vision, and A1110 Language items to the resumption of care (ROC) timepoint.A0810 Sex will replace the M0069 Gender item. Lastly, CMS will remove the O0350 Patient's COVID-19 vaccination is up to date item.

Senior Loan Officer Opinion Survey on Bank Lending Practices

Key Information

Abstract

A senior loan officer at each respondent bank completes this voluntary survey through an electronic submission, up to six times a year. Consistent with the Senior Financial Officer Survey (FR 2023; OMB No. 7100-0223), senior staff at the Reserve Banks with knowledge of bank lending practices serve as the main contacts for Senior Loan Officer Opinion Survey on Bank Lending Practices (SLOOS) respondents in their district and help administer the survey. The current reporting panel consists of up to 80 large domestically chartered commercial banks and up to 24 large U.S. branches and agencies of foreign banks. The purpose of the survey is to provide qualitative and limited quantitative information on credit availability and demand, as well as on evolving developments and lending practices in the U.S. loan markets. A portion of each survey typically covers special topics of timely interest. Although the Board has the authority to conduct the survey up to six times a year, the survey has typically been conducted only four times a year since 1992. Consistent with the FR 2023, other types of respondents, such as other depository institutions, bank holding companies, or other financial entities, may be surveyed, if appropriate. The respondents’ answers provide information that is critical to the Federal Reserve System’s monitoring of bank lending practices and credit markets. The Federal Reserve relies on the regular opportunity to solicit information from banks within the framework of the survey. Aggregated survey results from 1997 to present are available to the public on the Board’s website.

Northeast Multispecies Reporting Requirements

Key Information

Abstract

This is a request for a rule-related (0648-BN23) revision and extension of the OMB Control No. 0648-0605. This revision request makes the following changes: • Removal of weekly annual catch entitlement (ACE) reporting requirements for sectors (50 CFR 648.87(b)(1)(v)(B)); • Removal of the option to increase the frequency of ACE reporting requirements for sectors when the balance of remaining ACE is low, as specified in the sector operations plan and approved by NMFS (50 CFR 648.87(b)(1)(v)(B)); • Removal of the requirement for sectors to include in their operations plan a list of all Federal and state permits held by persons participating in the sector, including an indication for each permit whether it is enrolled and will actively fish in a sector, or will be subject to the provisions of the common pool (50 CFR 648.87(b)(2)(ii)). These collections are necessary to carry out the requirements of the groundfish fishery as specified by the Northeast (NE) Multispecies Fishery Management Plan (FMP). Removal of the above requirements is intended to reduce the administrative burden on sectors, without negatively affecting the availability of information for analyzing the impacts of sectors, monitoring against the objectives of the FMP, or evaluating current management programs and future management proposals.

The Natural Gas Distribution Infrastructure Safety and Modernization Grant Program

Key Information

Abstract

This information collection covers the collection of applicant data from municipality and community-owned utilities that are interested in applying to receive funds from the “Natural Gas Distribution Infrastructure Safety and Modernization Grant Program.” Solicitation for grants under the Natural Gas Distribution Infrastructure Safety and Modernization Grant Program is voluntary. No eligible entity is required to apply. To be eligible, however, municipality and community-owned utilities must meet all the requirements set forth in the law. Therefore, DOT must collect certain information from applicants to determine eligibility and evaluate applications. DOT must also verify the accuracy of grant requests from approved applicants, in accordance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, and other laws and regulations governing Federal financial assistance programs, including (but not limited to) the Anti Deficiency Act, the Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act (FFATA), the Payment Integrity Information Act of 2019, and 2 CFR part 200, among others. This information collection also covers the collection of data from grant recipients. PHMSA expects to receive approximately 100 applications from potential grantees. PHMSA estimates that it will take the 100 applicants approximately 65 hours to compile and submit the forms required to complete the application process for an annual burden of 6,500 hours. PHMSA estimates that 100 grant recipients will spend 5 hours, annually, submitting post-award reports for an annual burden of 500 hours. Therefore, PHMSA estimates that there will be a total of 200 responses (100 applicants + 100 grant recipients) for an aggregate total annual burden for the information collection of 7,000 hours (6,500 hours for applications + 500 hours for post-award reports).

Abstract

The Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) requests a renewal clearance for the 2025-2027 IMLS National Leadership Grants for Libraries and Laura Bush 21st Century Librarian Program Notices of Funding Opportunity under the Paperwork Reduction Act. The information collection in this package consists of the Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) with instructions necessary to apply for IMLS support as part of the agency’s grant programs. The National Leadership Grants for Libraries (NLG-L) support projects that address significant challenges and opportunities facing the library and archives fields and that have the potential to advance theory and practice. Successful proposals generate results such as new tools, research findings, models, services, practices, or alliances that will be widely used, adapted, scaled, or replicated to extend the benefits of federal investment. The Laura Bush 21st Century Librarian Program (LB21) supports developing a diverse workforce of librarians to better meet the changing learning and information needs of the American public by enhancing the training and professional development of librarians, developing faculty and library leaders, and recruiting and educating the next generation of librarians. In this clearance submission (3137-0091) and justification, IMLS is requesting approval of non-substantive changes to a previously approved clearance for the FY2026 NOFOs for National Leadership Grants for Libraries and the Laura Bush 21st Century Librarian Program, two discretionary grant programs that support the Nation’s libraries.
