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.

NESHAP for Nine Metal Fabrication and Area Finishing Source (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart XXXXXX) (Renewal)

Key Information

Abstract

The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP), for Nine Metal Fabrication and Finishing Area Sources (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart XXXXXX) were proposed on April 3, 2008, and promulgated on July 23, 2008. These regulations apply to owners or operators of any existing or new metal fabrication and finishing facility that is an area source of hazardous air pollutant (HAP) emissions and uses or has the potential to emit metal fabrication or finishing metal HAP (MFHAP), defined to be the compounds of cadmium, chromium, lead, manganese, and nickel, or any of these metals in the elemental form with the exception of lead. The affected sources consist of several types of metal fabrication and finishing processes, including any abrasive blasting, metalworking (which includes machining, and dry grinding and dry polishing with machines), spray painting, and welding operations. New facilities include those that commenced construction or reconstruction after the date of proposal. This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart XXXXXX. In general, all NESHAP 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 NESHAP.

Notification of Episodic Releases of Oil and Hazardous Substances (Renewal)

Key Information

Abstract

Section 103(a) of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA), as amended, requires the person in charge of a facility or vessel to immediately notify the National Response Center (NRC) of a hazardous substance release into the environment if the amount of the release equals or exceeds the substance’s reportable quantity (RQ) limit. The RQs for the hazardous substance can be found in table 302.4 of 40 CFR 302.4. Section 311 of the Clean Water Act (CWA) as amended, requires the person in charge of a facility or vessel to immediately notify the NRC of an oil spill into U.S. navigable waters if the spill causes a sheen, violates applicable water quality standards, or causes a sludge or emulsion to be deposited beneath the surface of the water or upon adjoining shorelines. The reporting of a hazardous substance release that is at or above the substance’s RQ allows the Federal government to determine whether a Federal response action is required to control or mitigate any potential adverse effects to public health or welfare or the environment. Likewise, the reporting of oil spills allows the Federal government to determine whether cleaning up the oil spill is required to mitigate or prevent damage to public health or welfare or the environment. The hazardous substance release and oil discharge information collected under CERCLA section 103(a) and CWA section 311 also is available to EPA program offices and other Federal agencies that use the information to evaluate the potential need for additional regulations, new permitting requirements for specific substances or sources, or improved emergency response planning. Release notification information, which is stored in WebEOC, a web-based crisis management system which supports response management for significant incidents and daily operations in the Regional Response Centers and EPA’s Headquarters Emergency Operations Center (EOC), is available to state and local government authorities as well as the general public. State and local government authorities and the regulated community use release information for purposes of local emergency response planning. Members of the general public, who have access to release information through the Freedom of Information Act, may request release information for purposes of maintaining an awareness of what types of releases are occurring in different localities and what actions, if any, are being taken to protect public health and welfare and the environment.

Requirements for Hospitals to Make Public a List of Their Standard Charges (CMS-10707)

Key Information

Abstract

In the 2024 OPPS/ASC final rule, CMS finalized revisions to the regulations at 45 CFR 180.50 related to making public hospital standard charges in a Machine Readable File (MRF), including adding data elements that must be included in the hospital’s MRF and requiring hospitals to conform to a CMS template layout. In this 2026 OPPS/ASC rule, we propose to add additional data elements that must be included in the hospital’s MRF. We are finalizing amendments to the HPT regulations to enhance clarity and standardization in hospital standard charges. Specifically, we are finalizing revisions to §180.20 to remove the definition for "estimated allowed amount" and add definitions for "median allowed amount,” “tenth (10th) percentile allowed amount,” and "ninetieth (90th) percentile allowed amount,” to provide additional context and enhance transparency and comparability of hospital standard charges. Furthermore, we are finalizing revisions to §180.50 to require hospitals, beginning January 1, 2026, to disclose the median, tenth and ninetieth percentile allowed amounts in MRFs when payer-specific negotiated charges are based on percentages or algorithms, as well as the count of allowed amounts used to calculate those allowed amounts.

Key Information

Abstract

VAAR clause 852.237–70, Indemnification and Medical Liability Insurance, is used in lieu of Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) clause 52.237–7, Indemnification and Medical Liability Insurance, in solicitations and contracts for the acquisition of nonpersonal health care services. It requires the apparent successful bidder/offeror, upon the request of the contracting officer, prior to contract award, to furnish evidence of insurability of the offeror and/or all health-care providers who will perform under the contract. In addition, the clause requires the contractor, prior to commencement of services under the contract, to provide Certificates of Insurance or insurance policies evidencing that the firm possesses the types and amounts of insurance required by the solicitation. The information is required in order to protect VA by ensuring that the firm to which award may be made and the individuals who may provide health care services under the contract are insurable and that, following award, the contractor and its employees will continue to possess the types and amounts of insurance required by the solicitation. It helps ensure that VA will not be held liable for any negligent acts of the contractor or its employees and ensures that VA and VA beneficiaries are protected by adequate insurance coverage. VAAR clause 852.228–71, Indemnification and Insurance, is used in solicitations for vehicle or aircraft services. It requires the apparent successful bidder/offeror, prior to contract award, to furnish evidence that the firm possesses the types and amounts of insurance required by the solicitation. This evidence is in the form of a certificate from the firm’s insurance company. The information is required to protect VA by ensuring that the firm to which award will be made possesses the types and amounts of insurance required by the solicitation. It helps ensure that VA will not be held liable for any negligent acts of the contractor and ensures that VA beneficiaries and the public are protected by adequate insurance coverage. VA uses the information to determine whether additional contract terms and conditions are necessary. An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. The Federal Register notice with a 60-day comment period soliciting comments on this collection of information was published at 90 FR 39264, August 14, 2025.

Prison Education Program Accreditation Requirements

Key Information

Abstract

The Secretary establishes regulations for Federal Pell Grants (Pell Grants or Pell) for Prison Education Programs (PEPs), to implement the statutory requirements in the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021, that amend the Higher Education Act of 1965, as amended (HEA), to establish Pell Grant eligibility for a confined or incarcerated individual enrolled in a PEP. These regulations are a result of negotiated rulemaking and added new title IV regulations to especially in Subpart P of 34 CFR Section 668. The Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021 added section 484(t) to the HEA to formally establish Pell Grant eligibility for confined or incarcerated individuals, as long as they are enrolled in a PEP as defined under the HEA. The regulations implement the statutory requirements allowing access to Federal Pell Grants for individuals who are confined or incarcerated when enrolled in programs that meet necessary standards. This collection established the burden under regulations at 34 CFR 668.237 - Accreditation requirements. These regulations prescribe program evaluation at the first two additional Prison Education Program (PEP) locations of a participating institution of higher education to ensure institutional ability to offer and implement the PEP in accordance with the accrediting agency's standards. The regulations require the accrediting agency to conduct a site visit no later than one year after the institution has initiated a PEP at its first two additional locations at correctional facilities. Additionally, the regulations require accrediting agencies to review the methodology used by an institution in determining the PEP meets the same standards for substantially similar non-PEP programs offered at the institution.

[CPR] U.S. National Authority for Containment of Poliovirus Data Collection Tools

Key Information

Abstract

In 2018, HHS designated the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) as the National Authority for Containment of Poliovirus (U.S. NAC) for the United States. The U.S. NAC is located in the Center for Preparedness and Response (CPR). The role of the U.S. NAC is to ensure that the requirements established in the World Health Organization (WHO) Global Action Plan (GAP) III and IV standards are effectively implemented and maintained in poliovirus- essential facilities. Part of this standard includes emergency planning, the implementation of surveillance following an incident, and the reporting of facility-associated poliovirus events to the U.S. NAC. Risk assessments following an incident are a critical component for adequate application of the GAPIII/GAPIV standard and efficient emergency response. The goal of the project is to collect data in the event of a poliovirus breach of containment - as well as to understand the biosafety practices of facilities working on poliovirus and mitigations strategies in place to reduce risks. These goals are in line with World Health Organization's Global Action Plan (GAP) for Poliovirus containment efforts. This information will assist with meeting the goals of the Section 361 of the Public Health Service (PHS) Act (42 U.S.C. 264) and prevents the introduction, transmission, or spread of communicable diseases from foreign countries into the States or possessions, or from one State or possession into any other State or possession.

Payment of Premiums (29 CFR part 4007)

Key Information

Abstract

Administrators of PBGC-insured pension plans file with PBGC premium information and premium payments required under 29 USC 1307 and 29 CFR Part 4007, which also requires retention and production of records necessary to support premium filings. The information identifies payers and lets PBGC verify premium computations and perform premium audits. It also helps PBGC project premium income, improve financial projections, estimate its exposure if plans terminate, track movement of participants and assets, determine whether new plans are being created, and update its insured-plan inventory. The retained records facilitate audits.

Key Information

Abstract

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) is requesting review and approval of a revision to an existing data collection related to the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (P.L. 117-169) (the Act). Sections 1193 and 1194 of the Act requires drug manufacturers to submit data to the Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services, in a form and manner specified by the Secretary; information on the non-Federal average manufacturer price; and information that the Secretary requires to carry out the negotiation or renegotiation process. The Act establishes a Drug Price Negotiation Program for certain selected drugs covered under Medicare Part B and Part D. The Secretary is required to negotiate maximum fair prices (MFPs) with drug manufacturers for 15 Part B and Part D drugs in 2028, 20 Part B and Part D drugs for 2029 and each following year. The Secretary is required to renegotiate MFPs with drug manufacturers of selected drugs that are eligible and selected for renegotiation for 2028 and each following year. Additionally, this information collection request describes the information collection that may occur if the Primary Manufacturer chooses to develop and submit a written counteroffer to CMS’ written initial offer for initial negotiation or renegotiation of the MFP, as applicable to a selected drug, during initial price applicability year 2028 under the Medicare Drug Price Negotiation Program (under the authority in sections 11001 and 11002 of the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (P.L. 117-169), codified in sections 1191 through 1198 of the Social Security Act). Both forms will be used for negotiation and renegotiation of selected drugs for initial price applicability year 2028.

[NIOSH] Assessing Respirator Perceptions, Experiences, and Maintenance

Key Information

Abstract

The goal of this generic information collection request is to enable CDC/NIOSH to support the effective use of respiratory protection by providing information that may be used to improve the design and implementation of employer-administered programs. Using the Occupational Safety and Health Administration’s (OSHA) respiratory protection program (RPP) requirements as the foundational framework, this research will assess current perceptions in respirator use as well as gaps in respirator use, maintenance, and implementation. Data collection efforts will seek to 1) determine the perceived knowledge, skills, and uses of respirators among those who wear a respirator as a part of their job and/or those who oversee respirator use, and 2) identify patterns in RPPs and other health and safety programs such as practices and directives that are included or missing to inform new content for improved respirator training, management, and effective, trusted use.
