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.

Key Information

Abstract

This submission is being made for non-substantive changes to an existing information collection pursuant to 44 U.S.C. § 3507. This submission seeks to remove program certifications that are no longer applicable in the Schools and Libraries Universal Service Description of Services Requested and Certification Form 471 (FCC Form 471). This submission also seeks to remove certain fields that are no longer applicable to the Schools and Libraries Universal Service Description of Services Requested and Certification Form 470 (FCC Form 470) and FCC Form 471.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.

Medicare Health Outcomes Survey Field Test (CMS-10861)

Key Information

Abstract

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) has fielded the Medicare Health Outcomes Survey (HOS) annually since 1998. The HOS is a national survey of Medicare managed care plan enrollees that provides data that permit the calculation of both longitudinal and cross-sectional measures of plan performance that are publicly reported to assist Medicare beneficiaries in making enrollment decisions. This request is to conduct a field test to evaluate potential new survey items, alternatives to existing survey content, and the effects of a web-based survey administration mode on response patterns and measure scores. CMS’s goal is a refined and shorter HOS survey instrument with new and methodologically simpler cross-sectional and longitudinal measures, expanded measurement of physical functioning and mental health, and the addition of survey items that support CMS’s efforts to measure and address health equity.

Abstract

Respondents participating in the Medicare program use Supplemental to Form CMS-2552-10: Median Payer-Specific Negotiated Charge Data Worksheet to report payer-specific negotiated charge data pursuant to the CY 2026 OPPS Final Rule (CMS-1834-FC) published November 25, 2025. This supplemental form advances the policy goal of increasing healthcare price transparency and promoting market-based approaches in Medicare FFS payments. The form requires hospitals to report, by MS-DRG, the weighted median of the payer-specific charges negotiated with Medicare Advantage organizations. The information reported on the worksheet enables CMS to calculate new IPPS MS-DRG relative weights beginning in FY 2029 and reinforces the administration's commitment to clear, accurate, and actionable healthcare pricing information.

Key Information

Abstract

The Energy Employees Occupational Illness Compensation Program Act of 2000 (EEOICPA), 42 U.S.C. 7384-7385 [1994, supp. 2001], established a compensation program to provide a lump sum payment of $150,000 and medical benefits as compensation to covered employees suffering from designated illnesses incurred as a result of their exposure to radiation, beryllium, or silica while in the performance of duty for the Department of Energy and certain of its vendors, contractors and subcontractors. NIOSH is charged with carrying out certain responsibilities under the Energy Employees Occupational Illness Compensation Program Act of 2000 on behalf of U.S. nuclear weapons workers with cancer. One of these responsibilities is to consider petitions by classes of nuclear weapons workers to be added to the Special Exposure Cohort (SEC), a cohort of workers whose claims for cancer under EEOICPA can be adjudicated without demonstrating that their cancer was “at least as likely as not” caused by radiation doses they incurred in the performance of duty. EEOICPA authorizes HHS to designate such classes of employees for addition to the Cohort when HHS lacks information to estimate the radiation doses received by these workers with sufficient accuracy. This Extension will serve to allow this information collection to continue for an additional three years.

FERC-545, Gas Pipeline Rates: Rate Change (Non-formal) (NOPR in Docket RM96-1-044)

Key Information

Abstract

FERC-545 is required to implement sections 4, 5, and 16 of the Natural Gas Act (NGA), (15 USC 717c, 717d, and 717o). NGA Sections 4, 5, and 16 authorize the Commission to inquire into rate structures and methodologies and to set rates at a just and reasonable level. Specifically, a natural gas company must obtain Commission authorization for all rates and charges made, demanded, or received in connection with the transportation or sale of natural gas in interstate commerce. In the NOPR, the Commission proposes to amend its regulations at 18 CFR 284.12 to incorporate by reference, with certain enumerated exceptions, Version 4.0 of Standards for Business Practices of Interstate Natural Gas Pipelines adopted by the Wholesale Gas Quadrant of the North American Energy Standards Board (NAESB). These amendments, if implemented, would affect FERC-545 by requiring filers to establish compliant mechanisms to share and post information which would be included in their rates on file with the Commission.

Key Information

Abstract

Advisory Circular (AC) 120-119, Voluntary Safety Management System for Other Regulated Entities Transporting Dangerous Goods by Air, provides information on how entities subject to Title 49 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Parts 171-180 may voluntarily implement a Safety Management System (SMS) as described in 14 CFR Part 5, Safety Management Systems. These entities perform functions such as handling or shipping dangerous goods by air and are referred to as Other Regulated Entities (ORE). As outlined in AC 120-119, large OREs can use the SMS principles in 14 CFR Part 5 as a basis to develop a voluntary SMS program, including an SMS Implementation Plan, which is submitted to the FAA’s Office of Hazardous Materials Safety (AXH) for review and acceptance. Then, the ORE implements its SMS program and maintains records to document processes, identify hazards, and document non-compliance. This collection covers the burden of developing the implementation plan and continued monitoring of the voluntary SMS program. Changes in this renewal include: • Adjustment (added an IC) to better distinguish between initial submission and continuing recordkeeping burden; • Adjustment in respondent estimates (decrease) based on current data; and • Adjustment in annual burden estimates for initial submission (decrease) based on subject matter expertise.

The purpose of the Institutional Assurance and Annual Report on Possible Research Misconduct form PHS-6349 is to provide data on the amount of research misconduct activity occurring in institutions conducting PHS-supported research. Research misconduct is defined as receipt of an allegation of research misconduct and/or the conduct of an inquiry and/or investigation into such allegations. These data enable the ORI to monitor institutional compliance with the PHS regulation. Form PHS-6349 has undergone minor revisions, but its function is unchanged. The purpose of the Assurance of Compliance by Sub-Award Recipients form PHS-6315 establishes an assurance of compliance for a sub-awardee institution. Form PHS-6315 is being discontinued because the updated regulation requires all awardees to have an assurance with ORI and does not distinguish sub-awardees. In its place, ORI developed a new form, the Research Integrity Assurance Establishment form PHS-7091. This form allows all institutions conducting PHS-supported research to establish an assurance with ORI. Additionally, ORI developed a second new form, the Institutional Record Transmittal form PHS-7092, which accounts for the varied types of information collection that can occur during the course of institutional research misconduct proceedings.

Adding Requirement to Submit Mail Tracking Number for Articles of Food Arriving by International Mail and Timeframe for Post-Refusal and Post-Hold Submissions

Key Information

Abstract

We are amending prior notice regulations to add a requirement that articles of food arriving by international mail include the name of the mail service and a mail tracking number, and add a requirement that prior notice and food facility registration information be submitted within a certain timeframe, after certain notices of refusal or hold have been issued (“post-refusal” and “post-hold” submission). We are also proposing certain technical changes, including those that reflect expanded capabilities of the Automated Broker Interface/Automated Commercial Environment/International Trade Data System (ABI/ACE/ITDS) and the Prior Notice Systems Interface (PNSI).

Patient Safety Organization Certification for Initial Listing and Related Forms, Patient Safety Confidentiality Complaint Form, and Common Formats

Key Information

Abstract

The Patient Safety and Quality Improvement Act of 2005 (hereafter the Patient Safety Act), 42 U.S.C. 299b-21 to 299b-26, was enacted in response to growing concern about patient safety in the United States and the Institute of Medicine's 1999 report, To Err is Human: Building a Safer Health System. The goal of the statute is to improve patient safety by providing an incentive for health care providers to work voluntarily with experts in patient safety to reduce risks and hazards to the safety and quality of patient care. The Patient Safety Act signifies the Federal Government's commitment to fostering a culture of patient safety among health care providers; it offers a mechanism for creating an environment in which the causes of risks and hazards to patient safety can be thoroughly and honestly examined and discussed without fear of penalties and liabilities. It provides for the voluntary formation of Patient Safety Organizations (PSOs) that can collect, aggregate, and analyze confidential information reported voluntarily by health care providers. By analyzing substantial amounts of patient safety event information across multiple institutions, PSOs will be able to identify patterns of failures and propose measures to eliminate or reduce patient safety risks and hazards.

Request Type:

Revision of a currently approved collection
Notice of Construction, Alteration and Deactivation of Airports

Key Information

Abstract

Title 14 CFR Part 157 mandates that all “persons proposing to construct, alter, activate, or deactivate a civil or joint-use (civil/military) airport or to alter the status or use of such an airport” must notify the FAA before any construction, alteration, or change to the status or use of an airport. Airports submit this information using FAA Form 7480-1, Notice for Construction, Alteration and Deactivation of Airports, or its online equivalent. The collection is reporting and occurs on occasion as needed. The collection requires proponents to report and certify the purpose of the notification; the name, location, use, and type of landing area affected; landing area data; and operation data, including number of based aircraft and average number of landings. The FAA uses the information collected when: • Determining the effect the proposed action will have on existing airports and on the safe and efficient use of airspace by aircraft. • Determining the effects the proposed action will have on existing or contemplated traffic patterns of neighboring airports. • Determining the effects the proposed action will have on the existing airspace structure and projected programs of the FAA. • Determining the effects that existing or proposed manmade objects (on file with the FAA) and natural objects within the affected area will have on the airport proposal. Proponents are also required to notify the FAA by letter or by FAA Form 5010-5 within 15 days after completion of the project. The FAA requires this notification because many proposals are never completed for reasons pertinent only to the sponsor. The confirmation of the completion of the project is needed in order to identify the cancelled proposals, so as to release any airspace that may have been reserved and to update aeronautical charts and flight information publications. The collection/burden for Form 5010-5 falls under a different collection (OMB Control Number 2120-0015). It is anticipated that the information collected will be disseminated to the public or used to support publicly disseminated information in aeronautical charts and flight information publications. FAA Office of Airports will retain control over the information and safeguard it from improper access, modification, and destruction, consistent with FAA standards for privacy and electronic information. See response to Question 10 of this Supporting Statement for more information on confidentiality and privacy. The information collection is designed to yield data that meet all applicable information quality guidelines.
