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 August 6, 2026.

Maternal and Child Health Services Block Grant Application/Annual Report Guidance

Key Information

Abstract

The Application and Annual Report fulfill the requirements of Section 505 and Section 506, respectively, of the Title V legislation. Consistent with previous editions, the updated Application/Annual Report Guidance is designed to allow states flexibility in meeting the unique needs of their MCH populations while enabling the Maternal and Child Health Bureau (MCHB) to meet the Title V legislative requirements, collect and utilize comparative data for addressing national and state MCH priorities, and demonstrate accountability in the use of the Federal Title V funds. The MCHB, in the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), serves as the Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary’s delegate to collect this information and to review it prior to the award of approximately $581 million annually in state formula grants under the MCH Block Grant. This is a revision request.

Key Information

Abstract

The National Healthcare Safety Network (NHSN) is a system designed to accumulate, exchange, and integrate relevant information and resources among private and public stakeholders to support local and national efforts to protect patients and promote healthcare safety. Specifically, the data is used to determine the magnitude of various healthcare-associated adverse events and trends in the rates of these events among patients and healthcare workers with similar risks. The data will be used to detect changes in the epidemiology of adverse events resulting from new and current medical therapies and changing risks. This Change Request is submitted to adhere to recent EOs and includes another minor change.Emergency Justfication:Emergency Processing is requested to add three (3) additional pathogens of concern to the NHSN (OMB Control No. 0920-0666) data collection: Influenza A (H5), Marburg, and Oropouche. This requested update in disease surveillance will illustrate which patient populations are being affected by these pathogens and the potential need for additional healthcare infection prevention and control. Since this form is collecting data on hospitalized patients, the update will also help inform on the severity of illness a high consequence pathogen is causing as well as what region(s) of the country are affected. Data collection is vital to ensure that local and state authorities are supported to prepare for and respond to emerging outbreaks.

Generic for ACF Program Monitoring Activities

Key Information

Abstract

This information collection request (ICR) is for a revision to the umbrella Generic for ACF Program Monitoring Activities. The current expiration date is November 30, 2023. The overall proposed purposes, uses, and scope of the umbrella remain unchanged. The only changes are to the burden estimates, as described in sections A12 and A15. The Generic for ACF Program Monitoring Activities allows Administration for Children and Families (ACF) program offices to collect standardized information from recipients that receive Federal funds to ensure oversight, evaluation, support purposes, and stewardship of Federal funds. The information is necessary to ensure compliance with Federal and programmatic requirements, monitor progress on recipient activities, and determine and respond to recipient needs such as Training and Technical Assistance (T/TA). ACF is primarily a grant-making agency that promotes the economic and social well-being of families, children, individuals and communities with partnerships, funding, guidance, T/TA. ACF program offices have evolving monitoring needs, dependent on both internal and external factors, such as but not limited to: current grantee activities, needs; uses of federal funds; changes to aspects of programs based on statutory authority, federal regulations or policy, and/or Congressional appropriations; availability of program office funds for site visits (v. desk monitoring); matters of importance related to national health and safety needs of the public, or other events that lead to program changes. There are times when standardized collections of information would be helpful for program offices as they monitor recipient activities and needs. This generic clearance allows program offices the flexibility to create tailored information collections based on current circumstances and to receive approval for these in a timely manner. This is important to allow for ACF’s: • monitoring of compliance with federal practice, guidelines and requirements, • quick understanding of and remediation to national, regional, and/or site-specific issues, • provision of support as needed, • accurate assessment of the efficiency and efficacy of recipient activities • documentation of promising practice, innovative services, and program strengths • flexible and responsive oversight of federal funds

ACF’s Generic Clearance for Reviewer Recruitment Forms

Key Information

Abstract

This request by the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) is to extend approval of the generic clearance for Reviewer Recruitment Forms with no changes (note that burden estimates have been updated to reflect ongoing collections and estimated future burden, but the purpose and use of this generic have not changed). ACF may recruit reviewers for a variety of different activities and each program office within ACF has a slightly different needs for information about reviewer applicants for different activities. This overarching generic clearance allows ACF to request slightly different information from potential reviewers, yet the individual forms serve the same general function. The abbreviated clearance process of the generic clearance allows program offices to gather a suitable pool of candidates within the varied time periods available for reviewer recruitment. The forms submitted under this umbrella generic are and will be voluntary, low-burden and uncontroversial. Information will be collected electronically unless specified otherwise in an individual generic information collection (GenIC) request.

[NCCDPHP] Message Testing for Tobacco Communication Activities

Key Information

Abstract

In 2012, CDC/OSH obtained OMB approval of a generic clearance to support the development of tobacco-related health messages (Message Testing for Tobacco Communication Activities (MTTCA), OMB No. 0920-0910). The MTTCA clearance has been used to obtain OMB approval for a variety of message testing activities. CDC is requesting OMB approval to extend the generic MTTCA clearance for three years. CDC will continue to use the MTTCA clearance to develop and test messages and materials for current and future phases of the ACA-funded media campaign, as well as OSH's ongoing programmatic initiatives including, but not limited to, the Media Campaign Resource Center, reports from the Office of the Surgeon General, and other communication efforts and materials. The MTTCA generic clearance may also be used to facilitate the development of tobacco-related health communications of interest for CDC collaborative efforts with other federal partners including, but not limited to, the Food and Drug Administration, the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, the National Institutes of Health, and the National Cancer Institute. The MTTCA clearance is sufficient to test tobacco related messages developed by CDC. No modification is requested for information collection activities or methodology. Non-Subsantive Change Request is submitted to modify questions in previously approved GenIC for compliance with recently issued EOs. There is no change to burden hours.

Ownership Report for Noncommercial Educational Broadcast Stations, FCC Form 323-E; Section 73.3615, Ownership Reports

Key Information

Abstract

On January 8, 2016, the Commission adopted a Report and Order, Second Report and Order, and Order on Reconsideration, FCC 16-1 (323/CORES Order and Reconsideration Order). The 323/CORES Order and Reconsideration Order adopted changes to the ownership reporting requirements that are intended to further improve the ownership data collection. The 323/CORES Order and Reconsideration Order adopts a Restricted Use FRN within CORES that individuals may use solely for the purpose of broadcast ownership report filings. In light of the Commission’s adoption of the Restricted Use FRN, the 323/CORES Order and Reconsideration Order eliminates the availability of the interim Special Use FRN for broadcast station ownership reports, except in very limited circumstances. The 323/CORES Order and Reconsideration Order prescribes revisions to Form 323-E that conform the reporting requirements for noncommercial educational (NCE) broadcast stations more closely to those for commercial stations, including revisions to collect race, gender, and ethnicity information for attributable interest holders; require that CORES FRNs or Restricted Use FRNs be used; and conform the biennial filing deadline for NCE broadcast ownership reports with the biennial filing deadline for commercial station ownership reports. The 323/CORES Order and Reconsideration Order also makes a number of other improvements to the forms that are intended to reduce the filing burdens on broadcasters, streamline the filing process, and increase the quality and usability of the data submitted to the Commission. These changes include extending the biennial filing deadline, reducing the number of filings required, improving the reporting of other broadcast interests, and additional improvements.
