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.

NSPS for Incinerators (40 CFR part 60, subpart E) (Renewal)
Key Information
Abstract
The New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) for Incinerators (40 CFR Part 60, Subpart E) were proposed on July 25, 1977, and amended on May 10, 2006. These regulations apply to existing incinerators that charge more than 45 metric tons per day (50 tons per day) of solid waste, and that commenced either construction or modification after August 17, 1971. Solid waste is defined as refuse, more than 50 percent of which is municipal type waste consisting of a mixture of paper, wood, yard wastes, food wastes, plastics, leather, rubber, and other combustibles, and noncombustible materials such as glass and rock. New incinerators will be subject to either 40 CFR Part 60, Subpart Eb, or 40 CFR Part 60, Subpart AAAA. Additionally, incinerators that are covered by either 40 CFR Part 60, Subparts Cb, Eb, AAAA, or BBBB; or by an EPA-approved State section 111(d)/129 plan implementing Subpart Cb or BBB; or by 40 CFR Part 62, Subpart FFF or JJJ, not subject to the above standards. This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR Part 60, Subpart E. |

| 202509-0910-002 | Establishing That a Tobacco Product Was Commercially Marketed in the United States As of February 15, 2007 | HHS/FDA | 2025-09-30 | Received in OIRA | Extension without change of a currently approved collection
Establishing That a Tobacco Product Was Commercially Marketed in the United States As of February 15, 2007
Key Information
Abstract
The guidance document provides information on how a manufacturer may establish that a tobacco product was commercially marketed in the United States as of February 15, 2007. A "Pre-Existing" tobacco product is not considered a new tobacco product and thus is not subject to the premarket requirements of the FD&C Act. A Pre-Existing tobacco product may also serve as the predicate tobacco product in a section 905(j) report (intended to be used toward demonstrating substantial equivalence) for a new tobacco product (section 905(j)(1)A)(i) of the FD&C Act( 21 U.S.C. 387e(j)(1)(A)(i))). FDA interprets the phrase "as of February 15, 2007," as meaning that the tobacco product was commercially marketed in the United States on February 15, 2007. The guidance associated with this collection of information recommends that the manufacturer submit information adequate to demonstrate that the tobacco product was commercially marketed in the United States as of February 15, 2007. Examples of such information may include, but are not limited to, the following: dated copies of advertisements, dated catalog pages, dated promotional material, and dated bills of lading. |

Key Information
Abstract
This submission is being made for a proposed non-substantive change to an existing information collection pursuant to 44 U.S.C. § 3507. This submission seeks to change the filing method of information collected on FCC Forms 507, 508 and 509. The information from the approved forms will now be collected electronically. In order to allow determination of the study areas that are entitled to an expense adjustment, and the wire centers that are entitled to high-cost universal service support, incumbent and competitive telecommunications carriers must provide certain data to the National Exchange Carrier Association or the Universal Service Administrative Company annually. Local telecommunications carriers who want to participate in the federal universal service support program must make certain informational showings to demonstrate eligibility. The data collected on FCC Forms 507, 508, and 509, will include line counts, forecasted cost and revenues, and actual cost and revenue data associated with consumer broadband-only loops necessary for the calculation of universal service high-cost support. In addition, the Commission now requires local exchange carriers seeking a change in study area boundaries to submit a petition for waiver of these boundary changes notwithstanding any prior exemptions from such waiver requests. |

FERC-505, Small Hydropower Projects and Conduit Facilities including License/Relicense, Exemption, and Qualifying Conduit Facility Determination
Key Information
Abstract
FERC-505 includes applications, notices of intent, and related information collection activities for: • Small hydropower project licenses and relicenses; • Exemptions; and • Determinations of a qualifying conduit hydropower facility. Small hydropower projects are minor water power projects and major water power projects that have an installed capacity of 10 MW or less. They may be licensed under Part I of the Federal Power Act, but some small hydropower projects may be eligible for an exemption. There are two types of FERC hydropower exemptions: (1) exemptions for qualifying conduit hydropower facilities; and (2) exemptions for small projects of 10 MW or less. A qualifying conduit hydropower facility, as defined in section 30 of the FPA, is an existing or proposed hydroelectric facility that utilizes for electric power generation the hydroelectric potential of a conduit, or any tunnel, canal, pipeline, aqueduct, flume, ditch, or similar manmade water conveyance that is not primarily used for the generation of electricity. A Notice of Intent to Construct Qualifying Conduit Hydropower Facilities under 18 CFR 4.401, which is discussed above, is required in order to seek a determination by the Commission that the proposed facility is in accordance with criteria listed at section 30 of the FPA. If the Commission issues such a determination, the facility is not required to be licensed or exempted by the Commission under Part I of the FPA. A 10-MW exemption, as defined in section 405(d) of PURPA, is a project that utilizes for electric generation the water potential of either an existing non-federal dam or a natural water feature (e.g., natural lake, water fall, gradient of a stream, etc.) without the need for a dam or man-made impoundment. The respondents for this information collection include citizens of the United States, corporations organized under the laws of United States or any State thereof, State governments, and municipalities. |

Treasury Decision (TD) 8400 contains previously approved final regulations regarding the taxation of gain or loss from certain foreign currency transactions under Internal Revenue Code (IRC) section 988 and applies to taxpayers engaging in such transactions. Such gains and losses are characterized as ordinary income or loss. However, under IRC section 988(a)(1)(B), taxpayers may elect to characterize exchange gain or loss on certain transactions as capital gain or loss. Treasury Regulations section 1.988-3(b) provides the procedure for making the election. Under IRC section 988(c)(1)(D)(ii), taxpayers may elect to have regulated futures contracts and certain options (which generally are not subject to section 988) treated as section 988 transactions. Treasury Regulations sections 1.988-1(a)(7)(iii) and (iv) provide the procedure for making that election. Under IRC section 988(c)(1)(E)(iii), a qualified fund may elect out of section 988 with respect to certain financial transactions. Treasury Regulations section 1.988-1(a)(8)(iv) provides the procedure for making that election. Under IRC section 988(d), taxpayers may receive special treatment allowing integration with respect to certain borrowings and property if the transactions are properly identified. The identification rules are in Treasury Regulations sections 1.988-5(a)(8), 1.988-5(b)(3), and 1.988-5(c)(2). Treasury Regulations section 1.988-2(a)(2)(v) allows an accrual basis taxpayer to make an election that provides special translation rules regarding the purchase and sale of stock or securities traded on an established securities market. Treasury Regulations section 1.988-2(b)(2)(iii)(B) provides an election allowing the translation of interest income and expense using a spot accrual convention. |

(TD 8656 - Final) Section 6662 - Imposition of the Accuracy-Related Penalty
Key Information
Abstract
Section 6662(e) of the Internal Revenue Code ("Code") defines a substantial valuation misstatement under Chapter 1 of the Code for purposes of the accuracy related penalty imposed under section 6662(a). The penalty is imposed on underpayments of tax, including those caused by a substantial valuation misstatement for transactions subject to section 482. Section 6662(e)(3)(B) provides, in general, that certain adjustments are excluded in determining whether the penalty applies if a taxpayer demonstrates that it followed certain requirements in analyzing its transfer pricing, documented that analysis, and provided that documentation to the IRS upon request. Consistent with the statute, these regulations require that taxpayers contemporaneously document their transfer pricing analysis, notify the IRS of the use of certain methods for determining an arm's length price, and provide that documentation to the IRS upon request. |
