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.

Factors That Influence Effectiveness of Hazard Anticipation and Attention Maintenance Training

Key Information

Abstract

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) is seeking approval for a one-time voluntary information collection from 168 participants ages 18 and 19 who do not yet have driver’s licenses for a research study on novice driver training. Specifically, this collection involves developing and testing a novice driver training program on a smartphone-like platform and determining whether the effectiveness of the training differs for participants of different sexes, socio-economic status (SES) strata, and trait levels of sensation seeking and aggressiveness. The information collection will proceed in two phases. First, the research team expects to provide screening questionnaires to 1,002 potential participants to determine their eligibility for the study; screening questionnaires will be provided to those who respond to recruitment information about the study posted on social media platforms or provided to contacts in local communities (e.g., teen centers, community college faculty in the area, high school principals, local driving schools) and to those who participated in past studies at the research center and agreed to be contacted about future opportunities. To be eligible, participants must be 18 or 19 years old, must not have an unrestricted driver’s license or an intermediate/provisional license that allows driving independently, and must be interested in obtaining an unrestricted or intermediate/provisional license in the next 12 months. Participants may have a learner’s permit. Completing the screening questionnaire is estimated to have a burden of 5 minutes per respondent (an annual burden of 28 hours for 334 annual respondents, averaged over the three-year approval period). Second, of the estimated 1,002 potential participants who are provided a screening questionnaire, an estimated 180 respondents are expected to complete the screening questionnaire and be eligible, interested, and willing to travel to the research center to undergo the informed consent process, with an estimated burden of 70 minutes per respondent, including travel time (an annual burden of 70 hours for 60 annual respondents). Finally, of the estimated 180 respondents who undergo the informed consent process, an estimated 168 respondents are expected to consent and enroll in the study. These participants will complete the enrollment process and a pre-study questionnaire, with an estimated burden of 10 minutes per respondent (an annual burden of 9 hours for 56 annual respondents). Then, participants will complete the novice driver training protocol, which involves a pre-training test, the hazard anticipation and attention maintenance training program (or a placebo training program), a post-training test (all administered on a computer), a rest break, a test on a computerized driving simulator, and a post-study questionnaire. The training protocol has an estimated burden of 230 minutes per respondent (an annual burden of 215 hours for 56 annual respondents). The total annual burden for this information collection is 322 hours and $13,069. Prior to conducting the study, the research team will obtain review and approval of this data collection from an Institutional Review Board (IRB) that meets all Federal requirements in 45 CFR 46, is registered with the Office for Human Research Protections, and has a Federal wide Assurance. NHTSA will use the results of this study to produce a technical report containing summary descriptive and inferential statistics. No identifying information or individual responses will be reported. The technical report will be shared with State highway safety offices, local governments, policymakers, researchers, educators, advocates, and others who may wish to use the data from this survey to support their work on novice and teen driver safety.

Generic Clearance for 2024-2026 IMLS Grant Application Forms

Key Information

Abstract

To facilitate the administration of the IMLS application and review processes for its discretionary grants and cooperative agreements, IMLS uses standardized application forms for eligible libraries, museums, and other organizations to apply for its funding. The forms submitted for public review in this Notice are the IMLS Library-Discretionary Program Information Form, the IMLS Museum Program Information Form, and the IMLS Supplementary Information Form. Beginning in FY2020, IMLS implemented the eGMS (Electronic Grants Management System) originally developed by the National Endowment for the Humanities and now used also by the National Endowment for the Arts and IMLS. The IMLS Library-Discretionary Program Information Form, the IMLS Museum Program Information Form, and the IMLS Supplementary Information Form are each included in one or more of the Grants.gov application packages associated with IMLS grant programs, and they automatically transmit data into eGMS through a system-to-system interface. In this clearance submission (3137-0092) and justification, IMLS requests approval of non-substantive changes to a previously approved clearance for the Grant Application Forms. The changes consist of: • Edits to goals and objectives to correspond with the FY2026 program NOFOs • Removing the Project Keywords section. • For the IMLS Museum Program Information Form: Streamlining the selection options by combining and removing similar project elements.

Financial Responsibility for Licensed Launch Activities

Key Information

Abstract

This information collection mandate reported by those commercial space launch services providers seeking a license or permit, enables FAA/AST to determine the maximum probable loss (MPL) resulting from licensed or permitted launch activities. The information is collected once based on vehicle configuration, launch site, and flight trajectory that are introduced in the license or permit application. The collected information will be used to determine if licensees have complied with financial responsibility requirements for MPL analysis as set forth in FAA regulations (§ 440.7(c)). The FAA is responsible for determining MPL required to covered claims by a third party for bodily injury or property damage, and the United States, its agencies, and its contractors and subcontractors for covered property damage or loss, resulting from a Commercial space transportation permitted or licensed activity. The MPL determination forms the basis for financial responsibility requirements issued in a license or permit order. The licensee or permittee provides the MPL results to an insurance broker to purchase insurance for the license or permit mission. The following is a summary of the key information required to conduct an MPL: 1. Mission description. • Launch trajectory; • Orbital inclination; and • Orbit altitudes (apogee and perigee). 2. Flight sequence. 3. Staging events and the time for each event. 4. Impact locations. 5. Identification of the launch site facility, including the launch complex on the site, planned date of launch, and launch windows. 6. Launch vehicle description. • General description of the launch vehicle and its stages, including dimensions. • Description of major systems, including safety systems. • Description of rocket motors and type of fuel used. • Identification of all propellants to be used and their hazard classification under the Hazardous Materials 7. Payload 8. Flight safety system .

Medicare Outpatient Observation Notice (MOON) (CMS-10611)

Key Information

Abstract

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) requests a new collection named the Medicare Outpatient Observation Notice (MOON), Form CMS-10611, as the written notice promulgated by the Notice of Observation Treatment and Implication for Care Eligibility Act (NOTICE Act) Public Law 114-42 enacted by Congress on August 6, 2015 and effective 12 months after the date of the enactment which is August 6, 2016. The NOTICE Act amended Section 1866(a)(1) of the Social Security Act (the Act) (42 U.S.C. 1395cc(a)(1)) by adding subparagraph (Y) which sets forth requirements for Medicare participating hospitals and critical access hospitals (CAHs) to provide outpatient notification to persons entitled to Medicare benefits under Title XVIII of Act, who are hospital observation patients for more than 24 hours. Notification must be given no later than 36 hours after the initiation of observation services. This notification process consists of a written notice as determined by the Secretary, which will be the MOON, and an oral explanation of the written notice. The notice must include the reason the individual is receiving observation services and must explain the implications of receiving outpatient observation services, such as cost sharing, and post-hospitalization eligibility for Medicare coverage of skilled nursing facility (SNF) services. The MOON is a standardized notice written in plain language that includes all of the informational elements required by statute.

Revision of a currently approved collection
Highly Migratory Species Dealer Reporting Family of Forms

Key Information

Abstract

This is a request for a revision and extension of an existing information collection, HMS Dealer Family of Forms (0648-0040). This information collection covers reports from seafood dealers regarding purchases, sales, imports, exports, or re-exports of Atlantic highly migratory species (HMS), including federally managed bigeye, albacore, yellowfin, and skipjack (BAYS) tunas, bluefin tuna (BFT), sharks, and swordfish (SWO). Domestic catch/landing data are necessary to effectively manage domestic fisheries. This information, consistent with the stated purpose of Executive Order (E.O.) 14276 of ensuring the integrity of the seafood supply chain, is used to monitor quotas, estimate fishing mortality, and identify the geographic and temporal distribution of fish and fisheries. The International Commission requires international trade-tracking programs for the Conservation of Atlantic Tunas (ICCAT). As part of this revision, the process for collecting email addresses from new HMS dealers has been updated. Previously, new HMS dealers were asked to submit their email addresses via email or phone. However, it is now a standard part of the annual dealer permit application process to collect email addresses. Consequently, there is no longer a need for new HMS dealers to provide their emails separately. Therefore, the burden estimates associated with collecting email addresses are no longer applicable for this ICR. The overall goal of these trade-tracking programs is to reduce illegal, unreported, and unregulated (IUU) fishing for the covered species and improve the management of associated fisheries. This goal aligns with the policies outlined in Executive Orders (E.O.) 14276, which seeks to combat IUU fishing and protect U.S. seafood markets from unfair trade practices, and E.O. 14303, which ensures that federal decisions are based on the most credible, reliable, and impartial data available.

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.

This submission also seeks to remove certain fields that are no longer applicable to the Schools and Libraries Universal Service Description of Services Requested and Certification Form 470 (FCC Form 470) and FCC Form 471. Additionally, a minor non-substantive change to the fields of the FCC Form 471 is made. This submission is being made for several proposed non-substantive changes to an existing information collection pursuant to 44 U.S.C. § 3507. This submission seeks to make non-substantive changes by adding program certifications to the Schools and Libraries Universal Service Description of Services Requested and Certification Form 471 (E-Rate FCC Form 471) and make non-substantive changes to certain fields in the Schools and Libraries Universal Service Description of Services Requested and Certification Form 470 (E-Rate FCC Form 470) and E-Rate FCC Form 471. The FCC Forms 470 and 471 are contained in an online portal. In 1997 the Commission adopted rules providing support for the Universal Service Schools and Libraries Support Mechanism (E-rate Program). FCC Forms 470 and 471 are required to describe the services requested and ordered by schools and libraries under the program.

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.

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.

Swap Documentation

Key Information

Abstract

Section 731 of Title VII of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (Dodd-Frank Act, Pub L. No. 111-203, 124 Stat. 1376 (2010)) amended the Commodity Exchange Act (CEA) by adding sections 4s(f), 4s(g), and 4s(i), among others. Pursuant to this authority, the Commission promulgated regulations 23.500-23.505, which obligate swap dealers (SDs) and major swap participants (MSPs) to develop and retain written swap trading relationship documentation. The final regulations also establish requirements for SDs and MSPs regarding swap confirmation, portfolio reconciliation, and portfolio compression. Confirmation, portfolio reconciliation, and portfolio compression are important, post-trade processing mechanisms for reducing risk and improving operational efficiency. *Note: The collections of information under OMB control numbers 3038-0068, 3038-0083, and 3038-0088 are now consolidated under OMB control number 3038-0088, and OMB control numbers 3038-0068 and 3038-0083 have been withdrawn as of July 5, 2022. Concurrently with this change, the Commission has changed the name associated with OMB control number 3038-0088 to “Swap Documentation.” While the collection has been renewed until June 30, 2025, this amended supporting statement is now submitted to correct the aggregate burden hours for the consolidated collection, and to officially affirm the discontinuance of OMB control numbers 3038-0068 and 3038-0083.
