North Pacific Fishery Management Council Cooperative Annual Reports

Key Information

Abstract

The National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), Alaska Regional Office (AKRO), requests a revision and extension of this currently approved information collection that contains requirements for cooperative annual reports. The Amendment 80 Halibut Prohibited Species Catch (PSC) Management Plan is being removed from this collection because these plans are voluntary and the last submission of a management plan was in 2021. The cooperative annual reports currently covered by this collection are part of the following fishery programs: Bering Sea and Aleutian Islands Crab Rationalization Program, the Central Gulf of Alaska Rockfish Program, the Amendment 80 Program, the American Fisheries Act and the Pacific Cod Trawl Cooperative Program. The purpose of the annual cooperative reports is to provide information to the North Pacific Fishery Management Council (Council) and the public about the operations and performance of the cooperatives. This information is used by the Council to inform the public, to evaluate the performance of the cooperatives, and to identify problems or issues that may need to be addressed by the cooperatives or the Council in the future.

Medical Permit Parking Application

Key Information

Abstract

SSA employees and contractors with a qualifying medical condition who park at SSA owned and leased facilities may apply to receive a medical parking permit. SSA uses two forms for this program: (1) the SSA-3192, the Application and Statement, which an individual completes when first applying for the medical parking space; and (2) the SSA 3193, the Physician’s Report, which the applicant’s physician completes to verify the medical condition after the individual completes the top portion and brings the form to the physician. The respondents are SSA employees and contractors seeking medical parking permits and their physicians. Because SSA employees are Federal workers exempt from the requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act, the burden below is only for SSA contractors and physicians (of both SSA employees and contractors).

NESHAP for the Manufacture of Amino/Phenolic Resins (40 CFR part 63, subpart OOO) (Renewal)

Key Information

Abstract

The National Emission Standards for Hazardous Air Pollutants (NESHAP) for the Manufacture of Amino/Phenolic Resins (40 CFR Part 63, Subpart OOO) were proposed on December 14, 1998; promulgated on January 20, 2000; and amended on: April 20, 2006; October 8, 2014; October 15, 2018; and November 19, 2020. These regulations apply to both existing facilities and new facilities that manufacture amino/phenolic resins with HAP emissions points that include: (1) reactor batch process vents; (2) nonreactor batch process vents; (3) continuous process vents; (4) equipment leaks; (5) wastewater; (6) storage vessels; and (7) heat exchangers. New facilities include those that commenced construction, or modification, or reconstruction after the date of the proposal. This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR Part 63, Subpart OOO. 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.

NSPS for Greenhouse Gas Emissions for New Electric Utility Generating Units (40 CFR part 60, supbart TTTT) (Renewal)

Key Information

Abstract

The New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) for Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Emissions for New Electric Utility Generating Units (EGUs) (40 CFR Part 60, Subpart TTTT) were proposed on June 2, 2014, and promulgated on October 23, 2015. Amendments to 40 CFR Part 60, Subpart TTTT were proposed on December 6, 2018, but EPA did not finalize amendments to the 2015 final rule. On January 13, 2021, EPA finalized a pollutant-specific significant contribution finding for this source category, which was vacated and remanded on April 5, 2021. The rule was most recently amended on May 4, 2024. These regulations apply to newly constructed, modified or reconstructed facilities with electric utility generating units (EGUs) including any steam generating unit, IGCC, or stationary combustion turbine that either commenced construction or modification after January 8, 2014 or commenced reconstruction after June 18, 2014, but on or before May 23, 2023. To be considered an EGU, the unit must be: (1) capable of combusting more than 250 MMBtu/h heat input of fossil fuel; and (2) serve a generator capable of supplying more than 25 MW net to a utility distribution system (i.e., for sale to the grid). This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR Part 60, Subpart TTTT. Units that commence construction, reconstruction, or modification after May 23, 2023 will be subject to 40 CFR Part 60, Subpart TTTTa. 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. Respondents are required to submit electronic copies of quarterly reports, required in 40 CFR 60.5555, using the Emissions Collection and Monitoring Plan System (ECMPS) Client Tool provided by the Clean Air Markets Division in the Office of Atmospheric Programs of EPA. The ECMPS is a desktop software tool that sources must use to submit quarterly emissions summary reports to EPA to comply with 40 CFR Part 60, Subpart TTTT. Using the ECMPS, the emissions summary reports are submitted to the EPA in extensible-markup language (XML) format. The tool and instructions are available at: https://www.epa.gov/power-sector/reporting-data-using-ecmps. The supplemental files to this ICR renewal contain screenshots showing the ECMPS login screen, the ECMPS interface for reporting emissions data, and the ECMPS reporting instructions for 40 CFR Part 60, Subpart TTTT.

NSPS for Hospital/Medical/Infectious Waste Incinerators (40 CFR part 60, subpart Ec) (Renewal)

Key Information

Abstract

The New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) for Hospital/Medical/Infectious Waste Incinerators (40 CFR Part 60, Subpart Ec) were proposed on February 27, 1995; promulgated on September 15, 1997; and amended on: October 6, 2009; April 4, 2011; and May 12, 2013. The original standards applied to either owners or operators of Hospital/Medical/Infectious Waste Incinerators (HMIWI) for which construction commenced after June 20, 1996, or for which modification commenced after March 16, 1998, but no later than April 6, 2010. Sources subject to the original standards are now covered under the revised Emission Guidelines for HMIWI at 40 CFR Part 60, Subpart Ce. This information request covers the reporting and recordkeeping requirements associated with the revised NSPS, which apply to new facilities only. New facilities include those that commenced either construction after December 1, 2008, or commenced modification after April 6, 2010. This information is being collected to assure compliance with 40 CFR Part 60, Subpart Ec. 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

Beneficiary and Family Centered Data Collection (CMS-10393)

Key Information

Abstract

Information collection activities for the Beneficiary and Family Centered Information Collection include the following: Experience Survey: The population is comprised of Medicare beneficiaries who received support from a QIO with an appeal or complaint case. The sample will be stratified, analyzed, and reported by case type: • Appeal stratum – A simple random sample will be drawn of approximately 3 percent (9,000) of the annual universe (n=350,000). No sub-stratum oversampling will be used. This is expected to yield sufficient data to support quarterly analytic and evaluation reporting. • Complaint medical record review stratum - Given the relatively small annual volume (n=1,500), a census will be drawn in order to yield sufficient data for quarterly analytic and evaluation reporting. • Immediate advocacy stratum - A simple random sample will be drawn of approximately 30 percent (4,500) of the annual universe (n=15,000). No sub-stratum oversampling will be used. This is expected to yield sufficient data for quarterly analytic and evaluation reporting. Information collection will be conducted via telephone with paper surveys sent by mail upon request, and for those who do not respond by telephone. Data will be collected monthly with the annualized sample and burden hours allocated evenly across 12 months.

[NCHS] National Survey of Family Growth

Key Information

Abstract

National Survey of Family Growth (NSFG) collects and disseminate “statistics on family formation, growth, and dissolution.” The NSFG supplements and complements the data from birth and fetal death certificates by monitoring factors (such as sexual activity, contraception, marriage and cohabitation, and infertility) that affect birth and pregnancy rates. The NSFG provides nationally representative data on factors related to fertility, family formation, and reproductive health for NCHS and its cosponsors within DHHS. Throughout its history, NSFG has been administered in person, in English and Spanish, with a self-administered portion added in more recent survey periods. Under the plan laid out in this clearance request, NSFG builds on its past survey design and procedures and incorporates online administration into a multi-phase, multi-mode design. This design calls for about 5,000 people aged 15-49 to be interviewed each year, however higher yields are sought in Year 3 and beyond to compensate for the underproduction seen in the first 2 years of data collection due to the COVID-19 pandemic and associated labor market challenges. For this Revision, no survey content changes are proposed since the most recent nonsubstantive change request approved on 9/15/2025, however a few revisions to survey invitation materials are proposed for implementation in Year 6 data collection scheduled to begin in January 2027. There is a minor reduction to the burden.

Data Collection for Quality Measures Using the Consolidated Renal Operations in a Web-Enabled Network (CROWNWeb) (CMS-10569)

Key Information

Abstract

Section 1881(h) of the Social Security Act, as amended by Section 153(h) of the Medicare Improvements for Patients and Providers Act, authorizes the establishment of a quality incentive program for renal dialysis facilities. Beginning in CY 2016, renal dialysis facilities have been required to collect and submit data on quality reporting measures to CMS using Consolidated Renal Operations in a Web-Enabled Network (CROWNWeb); in CY 2018, this was increased to eight quality reporting measures. In CY 2020, we launched the End-Stage Renal Disease Quality Reporting System (EQRS), which contains the functionalities of the three legacy ESRD Systems, including CROWNWeb, in one global application, and aims to provide ongoing support to the ESRD user community to foster accurate and timely monthly data submission. The measures required for reporting under the ESRD Quality Incentive Program are designed to reflect the appropriate level of care and the most important areas of service furnished by renal dialysis facilities. Measure data are intended to be publicly reported.

Loan Rehabilitation: Reasonable and Affordable Payments

Key Information

Abstract

This is a request for an extension with change of the information collection for the form used to obtain standardized financial information from borrowers with defaulted Direct Loan (DL) or Federal Family Education Loan (FFEL) Program loans. This information is used by either the U.S. Department of Education (the Department) or a guaranty agency to make a determination of a reasonable and affordable monthly loan payment which if made according to the agreed schedule would afford defaulted borrowers an opportunity for loan rehabilitation. The One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) signed into law on July 4, 2025, made statutory changes that require updates to the 1845-0120 Loan Rehabilitation: Reasonable and Affordable Payments collection. This revision to this information collection package reflect the statutory changes made by the OBBBA for the 2026-27 award year. The Department plans to submit another revision to this form for public comment next year to amend the form for changes that begin in the 2027-28 award year.

Electronic Disclosure by Group Health Plans Under ERISA

Key Information

Abstract

This proposed rule sets forth a new, additional safe harbor for group health plan administrators to use electronic media (e.g., email or web portal) to furnish documents and information to participants and beneficiaries of plans subject to the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA). This proposal, if finalized, would allow plan administrators who satisfy specified conditions to provide participants and beneficiaries with a notice that certain disclosures will be made available electronically on a website. Individuals who prefer to receive these disclosures on paper will be able to request paper copies and to opt out of electronic delivery entirely. The Department expects that the proposal, if finalized, would improve the effectiveness of the disclosures and significantly reduce the costs and burden to group health plans associated with furnishing many of the recurring disclosures.
