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.

Section 76.934(d), Petitions for Extension of Time

Key Information

Abstract

47 CFR 76.934(d) states that small cable systems may obtain an extension of time to establish compliance with rate regulations provided that they can demonstrate that timely compliance would result in severe economic hardship. Requests for the extension of time should be addressed to the local franchising authorities ("LFAs"). The Commission renumbered and modified the language in 47 CFR 76.934 in 90 FR 31145 (July 14, 2025), FCC 25-33. The rule section has been renumbered to 47 CFR 76.934(d). The Commission is requesting approval of this non-substantive modification to the information collection.

Notice of Research Exception under the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act (CMS-10286)

Key Information

Abstract

Under the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act of 2008 (GINA), a plan or issuer may request (but not require) a genetic test in connection with certain research activities so long as such activities comply with specific requirements, including: (i) the research complies with 45 CFR part 46 or equivalent federal regulations and applicable State or local law or regulations for the protection of human subjects in research;, (ii) the request for the participant or beneficiary (or in the case of a minor child, the legal guardian of such beneficiary) is made in writing and clearly indicates that compliance with the request is voluntary and that non-compliance will have no effect on eligibility for benefits or premium or contribution amounts; and (iii) no genetic information collected or acquired will be used for underwriting purposes. The Secretary of Labor or the Secretary of Health and Human Services is required to be notified if a group health plan or health insurance issuer intends to claim the research exception permitted under Title I of GINA. Nonfederal governmental group health plans and issuers solely in the individual health insurance market or Medigap market will be required to file with the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS). The Notice of Research Exception under the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act is a model notice that can be completed by group health plans and health insurance issuers and filed with either the Department of Labor or CMS to comply with the notification requirement.

Disclosure and Recordkeeping Requirements for Grandfathered Health Plans under the Affordable Care Act (CMS-10325)

Key Information

Abstract

Section 1251 of the ACA provides that certain plans and health insurance coverage in existence as of March 23, 2010, known as grandfathered health plans, are not required to comply with certain statutory provisions in the Act.To maintain its status as a grandfathered health plan, the interim final rule (75 FR 34538, June 17, 2010) require the plan to maintain records documenting the terms of the plan in effect on March 23, 2010, and any other documents that are necessary to verify, explain or clarify status as a grandfathered health plan.The plan must make such records available for examination upon request by participants,beneficiaries, individual policy subscribers, or a State or Federal agency official. A grandfathered health plan is also required to include a statement in any plan material provided to participants or beneficiaries describing the benefits provided under the plan or health insurance coverage, the plan or coverage believes it is a grandfathered health plan within the meaning of section 1251 of the ACA, that being a grandfathered health plan means that the plan does not include certain consumer protections of the ACA, and providing contact information for participants to direct questions regarding which protections apply and which protections do not apply to a grandfathered health plan and what might cause a plan to change from grandfathered health plan status and to file complaints. The amendment to the interim final rule (75 FR 70114, November 17, 2010) requires a grandfathered group health plan that is changing health insurance issuers to provide the succeeding health insurance issuer (and the succeeding health insurance issuer must require) documentation of plan terms (including benefits, cost sharing, employer contributions, and annual limits) under the prior health insurance coverage sufficient to make a determination whether the standards of paragraph (g)(1) of the interim final regulations are exceeded.

Swap Data Recordkeeping and Reporting Requirements: Pre-Enactment and Transition Swaps

Key Information

Abstract

On July 21, 2010, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (“Dodd-Frank Act”) went into effect. Title VII of the Dodd-Frank Act amended the Commodity Exchange Act (“CEA”) to create a regulatory framework for swaps. Section 723 of Title VII amended Section 2 of the CEA to provide that rules adopted by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (“Commission” or “CFTC”) to implement Section 2 shall provide for the reporting of data relating to both: (i) swaps entered into before the date of enactment of the Dodd-Frank Act, the terms of which have not expired as of the date of enactment of that Act (“pre-enactment swaps”) and (ii) swaps entered into on or after the date of enactment of the Dodd-Frank Act and prior to the compliance date specified in Commission swap data reporting rules implementing Section 2(h)(5)(B) (“transition swaps”). On June 12, 2012, the Commission adopted regulation 46, which imposes recordkeeping and reporting requirements relating to pre-enactment and transition swaps (collectively, “historical swaps”). This renewal concerns the existing collections of information required by 17 CFR Part 46. CFTC regulation 46 imposes recordkeeping and reporting requirements, relating to historical swaps, on the following entities: swap dealers (“SDs”), major swap participants (“MSPs”), and counterparties to swaps who are neither SDs nor MSPs (“non-SD/MSP counterparties”). Section 46.2 requires affected entities to keep certain records relating to historical swaps; Section 46.3 requires affected entities to make an initial data report regarding historical swaps to a swap data repository (“SDR”) and make on-going reports to a SDR for certain historical swaps throughout the existence of the swaps; Section 46.11 requires affected entities to report errors and omissions in data previously reported regarding historical swaps to a SDR.

Vehicle Information for the General Public

Key Information

Abstract

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) seeks the Office of Management and Budget’s (OMB) approval on the reinstatement of a currently approved information collection (OMB Control Number: 2127-0629) to obtain vehicle information for the general public in support of the New Car Assessment Program (NCAP). The information collection requests responses from major motor vehicle manufacturers about the crashworthiness, crash avoidance, and other capabilities of their vehicle models. The collection is voluntary and conducted annually. The information is primarily used to provide information to consumers. It is also used to address consumer inquiries as well as for internal agency analyses. This reinstatement of a currently approved information collection request includes the statutory addition of information about advanced crash avoidance technologies and vulnerable road user safety and the corresponding increase associated with the total annual burden hours. This reinstatement increases the total annual burden hours by 7,005 hours from when this Information Collection Request was last approved (from 1,995 hours to 9,000 hours).

Key Information

Abstract

This is a request for Office of Management and Budget (OMB) renewal for an information collection request (ICR) to enable the Department of Transportation’s (DOT) Office of the Secretary (OST) to implement the Thriving Communities Initiative (TCI) and Build America Bureau programs which includes the Thriving Communities program (TCP), the Rural and Tribal Assistance Pilot Program, and the Asset Concession and Innovative Finance Assistance Program. The TCI was authorized in the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2022 (H.R. 2471), enacted on March 15, 2022. The Thriving Communities Initiative is a key component in DOT’s Equity Action Plan that will provide direct, coordinated and place-based technical assistance and capacity building support that enables all communities, particularly those that are under-served and historically disadvantaged, to be able to access funding and programs established in the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA also known as the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law).

Streamlined Clearance Process for Discretionary Grants

Key Information

Abstract

Section 3505(a)(2) of the PRA of 1995 provides the OMB Director authority to approve the streamlined clearance process proposed in this information collection request. This information collection request was originally approved by OMB in January of 1997. This information collection streamlines the clearance process for all discretionary grant information collections which do not fit the generic application process. The streamlined clearance process continues to reduce the clearance time for the U.S. Department of Education's (ED's) discretionary grant information collections by two months or 60 days. This is desirable for two major reasons: it would allow ED to provide better customer service to grant applicants and help meet ED's goal for timely awards of discretionary grants. §3474.20(d) adds the requirement for grantees to develop a dissemination plan for copyrighted work under open licensing. Information contained in the narrative of an application will be captured in the Evidence of Effectiveness Form.

Rule 12d3-1, Exemption of acquisitions of securities issued by persons engaged in securities related businesses

Key Information

Abstract

Rule 12d3-1 (17 CFR 270.12d3-1) under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (15 U.S.C. 80a-1 et seq.) creates exemptions that allow registered investment companies ("funds") to acquire securities issued by persons engaged in securities-related businesses, which would otherwise be prohibited under Section 12(d)(3) of the Act. The rule permits funds to invest in companies that derive 15 percent or less of their gross revenues from securities activities without ownership limits, and allows investments in companies deriving more than 15 percent from securities activities subject to specific ownership caps (no more than 5 percent of any equity class, 10 percent of debt securities, and 5 percent of the fund's total assets in any single issuer), while prohibiting investments in securities issued by the fund's promoters, underwriters, investment advisers, or their affiliates, except for subadviser securities under strict conditions requiring advisory contract provisions that prevent consultation between subadvisers and limit their advisory responsibilities to discrete portfolio portions. The SEC needs this information to monitor compliance with these investment restrictions and ensure proper fund governance, using the collected data for regulatory oversight, examination, and enforcement purposes. This regulation primarily imposes recordkeeping requirements and internal governance obligations on investment companies, with information maintained for internal compliance purposes and made available to the SEC during examinations, while fund shareholders and the public benefit from the enhanced investor protections these restrictions provide.

Abstract

On July 10, 2019, the Commission adopted a Report and Order and Further Notice of Proposed Rulemaking in MB Docket Nos. 17-105 and 18-202, FCC 19-67, In the Matter of Children’s Television Programming Rules; Modernization of Media Regulation Initiative. The Report and Order revises the children’s television programming rules to provide broadcasters additional scheduling flexibility, allow broadcasters to offer more diverse and innovative educational programming, and relieve unnecessary burdens on broadcasters. Among other revisions, the Report and Order expands the Core Programming hours to 6:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m.; modifies the safe harbor processing guidelines for determining compliance with the children’s programming rules; requires that broadcast stations air the substantial majority of their Core Programming on their primary program streams, but permits broadcast stations to air up to 13 hours per quarter of regularly scheduled weekly programming on a multicast stream; eliminates the additional processing guideline applicable to stations that multicast; and modifies the rules governing preemption of Core Programming. In addition, the Report and Order revises the children’s programming reporting requirements by requiring that Children’s Television Programming Reports (FCC Form 2100, Schedule H) be filed on an annual rather than quarterly basis, within 30 days after the end of the calendar year; eliminating the requirements that the reports include information describing the educational and informational purpose of each Core Program aired during the current reporting period and each Core Program that the licensee expects to air during the next reporting period; eliminating the requirement to identify the program guide publishers who were sent information regarding the licensee’s Core Programs; and streamlining the form by eliminating certain fields. The Report and Order also eliminates the requirement to publicize the Children’s Television Programming Reports. The Report and Order directs the Media Bureau to make modifications to FCC Form 2100, Schedule H as needed to conform the form with the revisions to the children’s programming rules, including the changes to the processing guidelines and preemption policies.

Real-Time Public Reporting

Key Information

Abstract

The CFTC requests approval of the proposed revision of this ICR to add a new information collection instrument (Swap Data Error Correction Form) that implements the requirements of 17 CFR 43.3 (Method and timing for real-time public reporting). The Swap Data Error Correction Form specifies the format and manner in which respondents should submit the reports required under 17 CFR 43.3. Title VII of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (Dodd-Frank Act) added to the Commodity Exchange Act (CEA) new section 2(a)(13), which establishes standards and requirements related to real-time reporting and the public availability of swap transaction and pricing data. Section 2(a)(13) and part 43 of the Commission’s Regulations require reporting parties to publish real-time swap transactions and pricing data to the general public. Without the frequency of reporting set forth in part 43, the Commission would not be able to adequately assess the swap markets and, more importantly, would fail to achieve the frequency of reporting and promotion of increased price discovery in the swaps market which are mandated by the Dodd-Frank Act. The Commission’s regulations in part 43 require SEFs, DCMs, and reporting counterparties to report swap transaction and pricing data to SDRs and require SDRs to disseminate the swap transaction and pricing data to the public. The SDRs do not provide this data to the Commission directly. The Commission may, however, use the swap transaction and pricing data in connection with fulfilling any of its regulatory duties or for other purposes. This publicly-reported data is also available to all other regulators and to the public and they may use it for any purpose as they see fit. The swap transaction and pricing data is made public in order to increase the transparency of the swaps market for regulators and market participants.

Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS) 2024-25 through 2026-27

Key Information

Abstract

The National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) seeks authorization from OMB to make a change to the Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS) data collection. IPEDS is a web-based data collection system designed to collect basic data from all postsecondary institutions in the United States and the other jurisdictions. The IPEDS data collection enables the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) to report on key dimensions of postsecondary education such as enrollments, degrees and other awards earned, tuition and fees, average net price, student financial aid, graduation rates, student outcomes, revenues and expenditures, faculty salaries, and staff employed. The IPEDS web-based data collection system was implemented in 2000-01. In 2022-23, IPEDS collected data from 5,983 Title IV postsecondary institutions in the United States and the other jurisdictions. All Title IV institutions are required to respond to IPEDS (Section 490 of the Higher Education Amendments of 1992 [P.L. 102-325]). IPEDS allows other (non-Title IV) institutions to participate on a voluntary basis; approximately 200 non-Title IV institutions elect to respond each year. Institution closures and mergers have led to a decrease in the number of institutions in the IPEDS universe over the past few years. Due to these fluctuations, combined with the addition of new institutions, NCES uses rounded estimates for the number of institutions in the respondent burden calculations for the upcoming years (estimated 6,000 Title IV institutions plus 200 non-title IV institutions for a total of 6,200 institutions estimated to submit IPEDS data during the 2024-25 through 2026-27 IPEDS data collections). IPEDS data are available to the public through the College Navigator and IPEDS Use the Data websites. The current clearance covers the 2022-23 through 2024-25 collections and is due to expire on August 31, 2025. We are requesting to make changes to multiple survey components and other updates to the identification, cross-cutting terminology, and the glossary. The largest changes in this package are (1) the addition of a new Cost (CST) survey component, which combines components taken from the Student Financial Aid (SFA) and Institutional Characteristics (IC) components and combines them with added questions to determine how and make publicly available more information about how postsecondary institutions ask for information above and beyond the FAFSA; and (2) the planned elimination of the Academic Libraries (AL) survey beginning in the 2025-26 administration. As part of the 30D public comment period review, NCES has added an Appendix E, containing NCES responses to 60D public comments. Further, NCES requests that IPEDS data submitters and other stakeholders respond to the directed questions found in Appendix D of this submission.

Timber Sale Contract Operations and Administration

Key Information

Abstract

Forest Service contracts for the sale of timber and other forest products are bilateral contracts in which both contracting parties are bound to fulfill obligations reciprocally. By their nature bilateral contracts require both parties to routinely share information and enter into agreements pertaining to operations and performance. Some information collected under Forest Service contracts is required by laws, regulations and/or timber sale policies. Each contract specifies the information the contractor will be required to provide, including the timing and frequency of the information collection.

American Relief Act 2025 Disaster Supplemental Funds for Child Care

Key Information

Abstract

The American Relief Act, 2025 provides $250 million in supplemental Child Care and Development Fund (CCDF) funding for necessary expenses directly related to the consequences of major disasters and emergencies declared pursuant to the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act (42 U.S.C. 5121 et seq.) occurring in 2023 and 2024. The Administration for Children and Families (ACF) determined that these funds will be used for child care recovery grants to state, territory, and Tribal Lead Agencies administering the CCDF program in areas affected by those disasters and emergencies. ACF is required to distribute the child care disaster supplemental funding to eligible states, territories, and Tribes based on assessed need, notwithstanding the allotment formula set forth in the CCDBG Act. This information collection is necessary to solicit applications from eligible jurisdictions that describe the need for funding to address impacts of the disasters or emergencies. The Office of Child Care (OCC) plans to distribute the funds by the end of Federal Fiscal Year 2025 so that impacted jurisdictions can begin the process of rebuilding child care. This nonsubstantive change request updates dates based on timing of approval.

Abstract

CMS is seeking approval to reinstate the Information Collection Request (ICR) and to update our burden estimates to Forms A and B in preparation for the next round. CMS will publish a slightly modified version of Form A so that bidders will be better able to identify and understand the new requirement related to bid surety bonds (Section 1847(a)(1)(G) of the Act, added by section 522(a) of the Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act of 2015 (Pub. L. 114-10) (MACRA). We have made changes to Form B to remove the expansion plan section and to include the bidding methodology proposed in CMS-1691-P (83 FR 34304).
