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.

NSPS for Surface Coating of Plastic Parts for Business Machines (40 CFR part 60, subpart TTT) (Final Rule)

Key Information

Abstract

In this ICR, the EPA estimates additional one-time respondent burden of 2 labor hours in the first year following promulgation of the subject amendments to provide for becoming familiar with the amendments to NSPS subpart TTT and becoming familiar with the CDX and CEDRI systems associated with electronic submission of reports. These amendments will not impact the burden on respondents in later years because they do not impose additional reporting or recordkeeping requirements. The total estimated respondent burden as currently identified in the OMB Inventory of Approved Burdens is based on 10 respondents (a larger number than the three respondents counted in this ICR). The downward adjustment in the number of respondents for this ICR, based on the EPAs most recent information, is reflected in Attachment 1 to this ICR Supporting Statement.

Emission Guidelines for Existing Other Solid Waste Incineration (OSWI) Units (40 CFR part 60, subpart FFFF) (Final Rule)

Key Information

Abstract

The Emission Guidelines for Existing Other Solid Waste Incineration (OSWI) Units (40 CFR Part 60, Subpart FFFF) were proposed on December 9, 2004 (69 FR 71472), promulgated on December 16, 2005 (70 FR 74892), and amended on November 24, 2006 (71 FR 67806). Under the proposed rule, the Emission Guidelines apply to any air quality program in either a state or a United States protectorate with one or more existing OSWI units or air curtain incinerators that commenced construction either on or before December 9, 2004. The affected OSWI units include two additional sub-categories: very small municipal waste combustion (VSMWC) units that combust less than 35 tons per day (TPD) of waste and institutional waste incineration (IWI) units. This Subpart does not directly affect incineration unit owners and operators; however, they must comply with the states plan that was developed by the air quality program administrator to implement the emission guidelines. On August 31, 2020, the EPA published a proposed rule in the Federal Register for the OSWI NSPS and EG rules that addressed the requisite CAA section 129(a)(5) periodic review (85 FR 54178), as well as other proposed changes to the standards. The EPA is finalizing its CAA section 129(a)(5) review, including our determination that there are no developments in practices, processes, or control technologies that warrant revisions to the OSWI standards and requirements. The EPA is finalizing certain other revisions, including the addition of a subcategory of new VSMWC or IWI units that have a capacity to combust less than 10 TPD of waste that are constructed on or after August 30, 2020, including changes to applicability-related and definitional changes; changes to the startup, shutdown, and malfunction (SSM) provisions; changes to testing, monitoring, recordkeeping, and reporting requirements; and other miscellaneous technical and editorial changes. The EPA is also finalizing electronic reporting requirements for submittal of certain reports and performance test results. This ICR includes the burden associated with the existing rule requirements and the incremental burden associated with the final rule. This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR Part 60, Subpart FFFF.

46 CFR Part 540 - Application for Certificate of Financial Responsibility

Key Information

Abstract

The Commission administers Sections 2 and 3 of Public Law 89-777 (46 U.S.C. 44101-44106), which require vessel owners, charterers and operators of passenger vessels with passenger berths or stateroom accommodations for at least 50 passengers, and embarking passengers at United States ports, to establish their financial responsibility to meet liability incurred for death or injury and to indemnify passengers in the event of nonperformance of transportation. 46 CFR Part 540, entitled Passenger Vessel Financial Responsibility, implements Public Law 89-777. The regulation (and its related application Form FMC-131, Application for Certificate of Financial Responsibility) requires owners, operators or charterers of passenger vessels subject to Public Law 89-777 to apply for an initial certificate or to file an amendment to existing certificates. The Commission’s rules require that applications be filed at least 60 days prior to any advertising, promotion or collection of deposits and fares for a Certificate (Performance), and at least 60 days prior to sailing for a Certificate (Casualty). Applicants may apply separately for each certificate or for both certificates on one application. The method of establishing financial responsibility may be different for each certificate. The applicant has the option of using (1) insurance, (2) escrow accounts, (3) guaranties, (4) surety bonds, or (5) self-insurance (for casualty only) to establish financial responsibility to qualify for a Certificate (Casualty) evidencing compliance with Section 2 of Public Law 89-777, or to qualify for a Certificate (Performance) evidencing compliance with Section 3 of Public Law 89-777. Upon receipt, examination, and approval of the application form and evidence of financial responsibility, a Certificate of Financial Responsibility for Indemnification of Passengers for Nonperformance of Transportation and Certificate of Financial Responsibility to Meet Liability Incurred for Death or Injury to Passengers or Other Persons on Voyages are issued to the applicant/certificant. The certificates must be presented to U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) or Coast Guard officials at the time the vessel clears a United States port. The cap on passenger vessel financial responsibility under Section 3 (Performance) of Public Law 89-777, 46 U.S.C. 44101-44106, is adjusted biennially to the nearest $1 million using the Bureau of Labor Statistics’s Consumer Price Index for all Urban Consumers (CPI-U). Smaller passenger vessel operators’ (PVO) financial responsibility requirements may be adjusted by requesting consideration for alternative forms of protection from the Director of the Bureau of Certification and Licensing. The FMC’s PVO Certificates (Performance) are required to be renewed every 5 years. The renewal of the certificates assists U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers in determining the validity of a certificate, and ensures that the FMC periodically confirms PVO information previously submitted.

NSPS for the Phosphate Fertilizer Industry (40 CFR Part 60, Subparts T, U, V, W, and X) (Renewal)

Key Information

Abstract

The New Source Performance Standards (NSPS), for Phosphate Fertilizer Industry (40 CFR Part 60, Subparts T, U, V, W, and X) were proposed on October 22, 1974, promulgated on August 6, 1975, and amended on August 19, 2015 . These regulations apply to both existing facilities and new facilities that engage in the manufacture of phosphate fertilizers (wet-process phosphoric acid plants, super-phosphoric acid plants, diammonium phosphate plants, and triple superphosphate plants), and have a design capacity of more than 15 tons of equivalent phosphorous pentoxide (P2O5) feed per calendar day. These standards also apply to new and existing facilities that store granular triple superphosphate. These same standards establish fluoride emission limitations as a measure of phosphorus-bearing feed material at affected facilities. The affected facilities may include a combination of reactors, filters, evaporators, hot wells, acid sumps, cooling tanks, granulators, dryers, coolers, screens, mills, mixers, curing belts (dens), coolers, and facilities which store run-of-pile triple superphosphate, depending on the type of plant. New facilities include those that commenced construction, modification or reconstruction after the date of proposal. This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR Part 60, Subpart T, U, V, W, and X. In general, all NSPS 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 NSPS.

Medicare Advantage Model of Care Submission Requirements (CMS-10565)

Key Information

Abstract

Medicare Advantage (MA) Special Needs Plans (SNPs) are required to submit Models of Care (MOCs) as a component of the MA application process. The Affordable Care Act (ACA) requires that all SNPs be approved by the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA). This approval is based on NCQA’s evaluation of SNPs using MOC scoring guidelines developed by CMS and NCQA for the Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS). The MOC elements cover the following areas: MOC 1- Description of the SNP Population; MOC 2 - Care Coordination; MOC 3 - Provider Network; and MOC 4 - Quality Measurement & Performance Improvement. SNPs submit a MOC at time of their initial application and based on their scores, SNPs receive an approval for a period of 1, 2 or 3 years. After the approval period expires, SNPs are required to submit an updated MOC for review for their renewal process. CMS is also developing a MOC off-cycle revision process so that SNPs can revise the MOC to modify its processes and strategies for providing care during their MOC approval period. CMS will require that SNPs submit summaries of their MOC revisions to CMS for NCQA evaluation when a SNP makes significant changes to its MOC during the approval period. NCQA will review the summary of changes to verify that the revisions are consistent with the acceptable, high quality standards as included in the original approved MOC. CMS will begin collecting MOCs mid-January 2016 to coincide with the MA Application collection.

Emission Guidelines for Commercial and Industrial Solid Waste Incineration (CISWI) Units (40 CFR part 60, subpart DDDD) (Final Rule)

Key Information

Abstract

Previously, the EPA issued New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) (40 CFR Part 60, Subpart CCCC) and Emission Guidelines (40 CFR Part 60, Subpart DDDD) for Commercial and Industrial Solid Waste Incineration (CISWI) Units as promulgated on December 1, 2000 (65 FR 75338) and March 21, 2011 (76 FR 15769), and subsequently amended on: February 7, 2013 (78 FR 9195); June 23, 2016 (81 FR 41001); April 16, 2019 (84 FR 15846); and Oct. 7, 2020 (85 FR 63406) . The Emission Guidelines apply to any air quality program in either a state or a United States protectorate with one or more existing CISWI units. The guidelines can be thought of as model regulations that States use in developing State plans to implement the Emission Guidelines. If a state does not develop, adopt, and submit an approvable state plan, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) develops a Federal plan to implement the Emission Guidelines. The EPA previously promulgated a Federal Plan for CISWI units subject to the December 1, 2000 final rule on October 3, 2003 (68 FR 57518) under 40 CFR Part 62, Subpart III. On January 11, 2017, the EPA proposed amendments to the Federal plan requirements at 40 CFR Part 62, Subpart III to implement the regulations at 40 CFR Part 60, Subpart DDDD adopted on February 7, 2013, and as amended on June 23, 2016, and April 16, 2019. The EPA is subsequently finalizing the revised Federal Plan under new subpart 40 CFR Part 62, Subpart IIIa. Following the effective date of the final rule, the requirements of 40 CFR Part 62, Subpart III will no longer be in effect and all existing units subject to the Federal Plan must meet the requirements of 40 CFR Part 62, Subpart IIIa. These regulations will apply to existing CISWI units (units that commenced construction on or before June 4, 2010, or commenced modification or reconstruction after June 4, 2010 but no later than August 7, 2013) that are not regulated by an EPA approved and currently effective State or Tribal plan, or that are located in any state whose approved State or Tribal plan is only approved in part. Since EPA is finalizing the updated Federal plan at 40 CFR Part 62, Subpart IIIa, following the effective date of the final rule, all respondents previously subject to Subpart DDDD are now subject to either a State plan implementing 40 CFR Part 60, Subpart DDDD or are subject to the Federal plan under 40 CFR Part 62, Subpart IIIa, or if they have modified since August 7, 2013, they are subject to the NSPS at 40 CFR Part 60, Subpart CCCC. This information is thus being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR Part 60, Subpart DDDD and 40 CFR Part 62, Subpart IIIa. The Federal Plan implements the Emissions Guidelines at 40 CFR Part 60, Subpart DDDD. In general, all Emissions Guidelines 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 Emission Guidelines.

Generic Clearance for NOAA Social, Behavioral, and Economic Science Studies for Weather, Water, and Climate

Key Information

Abstract

This revision is to request that OMB allow up to 5 IC submissions at a time for this generic request. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) products and services “support economic vitality and affect more than one-third of America’s gross domestic product.” The National Weather Service (NWS) is a critical component of this service and operates under the mission to “provide weather, water and climate data, forecasts, warnings, and impact-based decision support services for the protection of life and property and enhancement of the national economy.” Leveraging and integrating Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (SBES) methodologies and knowledge is crucial to meeting our mission. Similarly, the Oceanic and Atmospheric Research (OAR) NOAA line office conducts SBES research and development directly relevant to and in support of the NWS mission. If we are to effectively support public and partner decision making, build actionable tools and information, and evaluate our performance, then it’s imperative that the NWS/OAR collect key SBES data and fully engage with our audiences. Additionally, the NWS/OAR has articulated a priority to enhance services for historically underinvested and underserved communities and improve service equity across the board. These communities typically experience higher rates of poverty, homelessness, disabilities, and language barriers, which increase their vulnerability to hazard impacts. The generic clearance is an important planning and engagement tool for NWS/OAR. The procedures expected to be used include but are not limited to social network analysis, open, semi-structured and structured interviews, focus groups, surveys, and participant observation.

NESHAP for Refractory Products Manufacturing (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart SSSSS) (Renewal)

Key Information

Abstract

The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for the regulations published at 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart SSSSS were proposed on June 20, 2002, promulgated on April 16, 2003, and most recently amended on November 19, 2021 (86 FR 66045). These regulations apply to each refractory products manufacturing facility which produces refractory bricks, refractory shapes, monolithics, kiln furniture, crucibles, and other materials used as linings for boilers, kilns, and other processing units and equipment where extreme temperature, corrosions, and abrasion would destroy other materials. These regulations apply to existing facilities and new facilities that manufacture refractory products and use organic hazardous air pollutant (HAP), chromium refractory, and clay refractory products. New facilities include those that commenced construction, modification, or reconstruction after the date of proposal. Revisions to the NESHAP were finalized on November 19, 2021 as a result of the residual risk and technology review (RTR) required under the Clean Air Act (CAA). This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart SSSSS.  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.

Recompete Pilot Program

Key Information

Abstract

The Recompete Pilot Program awarded $184M on August 5, 2024. Information is being collected to assess whether it met its stated aims. In Phase 2 of the two-phase competition, EDA selected six “Recompete Awardees” to receive implementation funding which ranged from $20 million – $40 million per community. The information collection proposed for the six Phase 2 Awardees is to ensure Recompete investments are evidence-based, data-driven, and accountable to participants and the public. The six Recompete Awardees will submit identified program metrics and qualitative information to help assess specific program objectives. A recurring questionnaire will be sent to each Recompete coalition lead every six months for a total of five years to gather relevant data from each of the six Recompete Awardees, resulting in community impact evaluation, resources, and tools for place-based economic development decision makers. The six Recompete Awardees will provide information on the following areas related to Recompete objectives: 1) Employment among prime-age individuals who interact with Recompete programming. 2) Economic distress in Recompete service areas. 3) Effectiveness of workforce development programming. 4) Effectiveness of entrepreneurship and small business supports. 5) Local economic development capacity.

United States Estate (and Generation-Skipping Transfer) Tax Return

Key Information

Abstract

The federal estate tax is a tax on the transfer of property at death. It is applied to estates for which at-death gross assets ("gross estate") plus adjusted taxable gifts exceed the filing threshold. Chapter 11 of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) provides the rules and requirements for estate taxes. IRC section 2001 imposes a tax on the transfer of the taxable estate of every decedent who was a citizen or resident of the United States. Chapter 13 of the IRC provides rules and requirements for certain generation-skipping transfers (GST). IRC section 2601 imposes a tax on a GST. Form 706 and related forms are used to report and compute both taxes. IRC section 2603(a)(2) provides that the GST tax imposed on a direct skip from a trust must be paid by the trustee (not the estate). This information collection request (ICR) covers the actual reporting burden associated with preparing and submitting the prescribed return forms, by executors required to file Form 706 and any of its affiliated forms.

Data Security Executive Order

Key Information

Abstract

On February 28, 2024, the President issued Executive Order 14117 (Preventing Access to Americans’ Bulk Sensitive Personal Data and United States Government-Related Data by Countries of Concern) (the Order) pursuant to his authority under the Constitution and laws of the United States, including the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.) (IEEPA), the National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1601 et seq.) (NEA), and 301 of title 3, United States Code). The Order directs the Attorney General to issue regulations that prohibit or otherwise restrict United States persons from engaging in any acquisition, holding, use, transfer, transportation, or exportation of, or dealing in, any property in which a foreign country or national thereof has any interest (transaction), where the transaction: involves bulk U.S. sensitive personal data (SPD) or U.S. Government related data, as defined by final rules implementing the Order; falls within a class of transactions that has been determined by the Attorney General to pose an unacceptable risk to the national security of the United States because it may enable access by countries of concern or covered persons to Americans’ bulk SPD or U.S. government-related data; and meets other criteria specified by the Order. On March 5, 2025, the Department of Justice (Department or DOJ), through the National Security Division, issued an Advance Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (ANPRM) setting forth contemplated regulations to implement the Order and seeking public comment.
