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 September 22, 2026.

Survey of Market Absorption of New Apartment Buildings

Key Information

Abstract

The Department of Housing and Urban Development conducts this survey in order to determine if the supply of rental housing is keeping pace with current and future needs. Additional information such as asking rent (or price for condominium unites) and number of bedrooms is also collected. The Survey of Market Absorption of New Multifamily Units (SOMA) provides the data necessary to measure the rate at which different types of new rental apartments and new condominium/cooperative apartments are absorbed, that is, taken off the market, usually by being rented or sold - within the first 12 months after a building’s completion. The data are collected at quarterly intervals until 12 months expire or until the units in a building are completely absorbed, which may occur sooner. The data is collected from building managers, rental and sales agents, as well as building and property owners.

ED-524 Budget Information Non-Construction Programs Form and Instructions

Key Information

Abstract

The ED 524 form and instructions are included in U.S. Department of Education (ED) discretionary grant application packages and are needed in order for applicants to submit summary-level budget data by budget category, as well as a detailed budget narrative, to request and justify their proposed grant budgets as part of their grant applications. At the time of application, ED applicants submit budget information on the ED 524 for both Federal funds requested and for the non-Federal match or cost-sharing funds they are committing to the proposed project (either statutorily required or provided as a voluntary commitment) for each budget period of a multi-year project. Please note that Education Department General Administrative Regulations (EDGAR),(34 CFR 75.117) requires that an applicant that proposes a multi-year project must include in its application a budget narrative accompanied by a budget form prescribed by the Secretary, that provides budget information for each budget period of the proposed project period. In order to prepare the non-Federal portion of the budget for the ED 524, the applicant must already have had this information on hand in their internal grant accounting records. Under Uniform Administrative Requirements, 2 CFR 200.306, as applicable, a grantee is required to maintain this information regarding cost-sharing and matching resources.

Current Population Survey—Basic Labor Force

Key Information

Abstract

The labor force data gathered through the Current Population Survey (CPS) are provided to users in the greatest detail possible, consistent with the demographic information obtained in the survey. In brief, the labor force data can be broken down by sex, age, race, ethnicity, marital status, family composition, educational level, certification and licensing status, disability status, and various other characteristics. Through such breakdowns, one can focus on the employment situation of specific population groups as well as on the general trends in employment and unemployment. Moreover, the survey yields data on the characteristics of people who have stopped looking for work because they believe no jobs are available, also referred to as discouraged workers. Information of this type can be obtained only through demographically-oriented surveys such as the CPS.

Application for Prevailing Wage Determination

Key Information

Abstract

The information contained in the Form ETA-9141 is the basis for the Secretary’s determination of the wage employers must pay in order protect against adverse effect on U.S. workers’ wages by the employment of a foreign worker. Prior to submitting requests for most labor certifications or a labor condition applications to the Secretary of Labor, employers must obtain a prevailing wage for the job opportunity based on the place of employment in order to ensure that wages are not being adversely affected by paying foreign workers less than a prevailing wage. Form ETA-9141, Application for Prevailing Wage Determination, is used to collect the necessary information from employers to enable the Department of Labor (Department) to issue a prevailing wage for the occupation and location of the job offer. The Form ETA-9141 is used in the H-2B, H-1B, H-1B1, E-3, and PERM programs administered by the Department. In order to meet its statutory responsibilities under the INA, the Department must request information from employers seeking to hire and import foreign labor. The Department uses the information collected to determine the appropriate wages that must be paid by an employer to foreign workers in most programs.

Marine Recreational Information Program Fishing Effort Survey

Key Information

Abstract

This request is for a revision and extension of a currently approved information collection, to conduct the Fishing Effort Survey (FES) in Hawaii and the states along the Atlantic coast. The request includes revisions to conduct the FES monthly rather than bi-monthly, as well as test a sequential web-push survey design to evaluate data quality, timeliness of survey responses and survey costs. The One-Month Wave Study is being removed from this collection since the study has been completed. Marine recreational anglers are surveyed to collect catch and effort data, fish biology data, and angler socioeconomic characteristics. These data are required to carry out provisions of the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act (16 U.S.C. 1801 et seq.), as amended, regarding conservation and management of fishery resources. Marine recreational fishing catch and effort data are collected through a combination of mail surveys, telephone surveys and on-site intercept surveys with recreational anglers. The Fishing Effort Survey (FES) is conducted by the NOAA Fisheries, Office of Science and Technology (OST). The FES is a self-administered, household mail survey that samples from a residential address frame to collect data on the number of recreational anglers and the number of recreational fishing trips. The survey estimates marine recreational fishing activity for all coastal states from Maine through Florida, as well as Hawaii.

Basic Requirements for Special Exemption Permits and Authorizations to Take, Import, and Export Marine Mammals, Threatened and Endangered Species, and for Maintaining a Captive

Key Information

Abstract

The National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), Office of Protected Resources, Permits and Conservation Division proposes revisions to the currently approved information collection OMB Control Number 0648-0084. The National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) is revising permit application instructions for the Marine Mammal Protection Act (MMPA) and the Endangered Species Act (ESA) to align with new regulations and streamline processes. Key changes include removing the 5-year limit on MMPA permit durations, creating specific instructions for endangered corals, and updating guidance for Uncrewed Aircraft System (UAS) operations to improve take reporting. Additionally, the agency is redesigning its online application system (APPS) and splitting public display instructions into separate capture and importation categories to better meet statutory requirements. This information collection is under the authority of the Marine Mammal Protection Act (16 U.S.C. 1361 et seq.; MMPA), the Fur Seal Act (16 U.S.C. 1151 et seq.; FSA), and the Endangered Species Act (16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.; ESA). The MMPA, FSA, and ESA prohibit “take” (e.g., to harass or kill), import, and export of marine mammals and endangered and threatened species, with limited exceptions. Pursuant to Section 104 of the MMPA and Section 10(a)(1)(A) of the ESA, persons or institutions may apply for special exception permits to take, import, or export marine mammals or endangered or threatened species for scientific research or enhancement purposes. Section 104 of the MMPA also allows for Letters of Confirmation under a General Authorization for scientific research, permits for commercial and educational photography of marine mammals, and permits for capture or import of marine mammals for public display. Issuance of permits is a federal action subject to the provisions of the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). Persons or institutions seeking to take, import, or export protected species are required to apply for a permit or authorization and demonstrate that the applicable statutory and regulatory requirements are met. The information required in this collection is used by NMFS to make the determinations under the MMPA, FSA, ESA, NEPA, and their implementing regulations prior to issuing a permit or authorization; to evaluate the impacts on protected species; to establish appropriate permit conditions for the activity proposed; and, to ensure compliance with the Acts. Information required includes the name, affiliation, contact information and qualifications; the purpose of the request; the species, age, sex, and number of animals proposed to be taken, imported, or exported; location; a description of the impacts to the species and environment; the proposed methods and mitigation to minimize impacts to the species; and the requested duration of the permit. Permit and authorization holders must submit reports on the activities they conduct. Also, the MMPA mandates NMFS maintain an inventory of marine mammals in public display facilities and for those facilities to report certain information about the marine mammals to NMFS (via the National Inventory of Marine Mammals [NIMM]).

Green Sturgeon ESA 4(d) Rule Take Exceptions and Exemptions

Key Information

Abstract

We request to extend a currently approved information collection for activities involving threatened green sturgeon (Acipenser medirostris). In April 2006, the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) listed the Southern Distinct Population Segment of North American green sturgeon (hereafter, “Southern DPS”) as threatened under the Endangered Species Act (ESA). In June 2010, NMFS established protective regulations for the Southern DPS under section 4(d) of the ESA (“ESA 4(d) rule”). The ESA 4(d) rule prohibits “take” of Southern DPS fish, unless the take is covered by an exception or exemption. The ESA defines “take” as to harass, harm, pursue, hunt, shoot, wound, kill, trap, capture, or collect, or to attempt to engage in any such conduct. The ESA 4(d) rule established several exceptions and exemptions for activities including fish rescue and salvage, scientific research, habitat restoration, fisheries, and tribal resource management. To qualify for a 4(d) exception or exemption, entities prepare and submit information to NMFS to show that the proposed activity meets the criteria established in the ESA 4(d) rule. NMFS uses this information to (1) track the number of Southern DPS fish taken as a result of each action; (2) evaluate the effects of each action on the Southern DPS; and (3) determine whether additional protections, exceptions, or exemptions are needed. The information collection is necessary for NMFS to evaluate and minimize effects on the Southern DPS, while still allowing activities to occur.

Highly Migratory Species Vessel Logbooks and Cost-Earnings Data Reports

Key Information

Abstract

This request is for an extension without revision of the Atlantic Highly Migratory Species (HMS) vessel logbooks and cost-earnings reports information collection. The burden and cost estimates have been updated to reflect minor changes in the number of permit holders, and hourly labor costs from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Otherwise, there have been no programmatic changes to this information collection. This information collection provides essential data on HMS fishing effort, catch, and economic data that is essential to the continued management of these fisheries. The legislative authorities to collect data from the various sectors of the economy that harvest marine resources in the exclusive economic zone are the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act (Magnuson-Stevens Act) and the Atlantic Tunas Convention Act (ATCA). Under this dual authority, the Secretary of Commerce has promulgated rules that require specific types of record keeping and data submissions. HMS are species that travel long distances and often cross domestic and international boundaries. NOAA Fisheries manages HMS fisheries—tunas, sharks, swordfish, and billfish—in U.S. Atlantic Ocean, Gulf of America, and Caribbean waters.

Broadband Technical Assistance

Key Information

Abstract

The Rural eConnectivity Program (ReConnect) was authorized under 7 U.S.C. 901 et seq., and Pub. L. 115-141, §779. The Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) will use technical assistance funds appropriated under the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) (Pub. L. 117-58). Applications received under the FOA will be administered by the Rural Utilities Service (RUS or the Agency), a Rural Development (RD) agency of the United States Department of Agriculture. The assistance instrument for this program will be through cooperative agreements which RD is authorized to administer pursuant to 7 U.S.C. 2204b(b)(4). This FOA provides competitive cooperative agreement funding to eligible entities to ensure technical assistance and training is delivered to rural communities in need of high-speed internet and rural broadband providers. Program funds must be used to support broadband technical assistance activities which include, but are not limited to, project planning and community engagement, operations support, financial sustainability, environmental compliance, engineering, accessing federal resources, and data collection and reporting. The goal of the program is to support the expansion of high-speed internet into unserved rural communities. Applications submitted for consideration will be reviewed for eligibility and completeness. Applications determined to be eligible will be evaluated according to the scoring criteria outlined in the FOA. The scoring criterion is targeted to applicants that demonstrate strong work plans, organizational capacity, clear performance metrics, and the ability to reach the most rural communities. Points are also available for projects benefitting targeted groups such as Tribes and Tribal Entities, colonias, persistent poverty counties, and distressed energy communities. Failure to collect proper information from applicants could hinder the government’s selection of funding recipients, and result in improper determinations of assistance, increase legal costs to the recipients as well as encumber customer service and, ultimately, slow the deployment of assistance to rural areas in need of high-speed internet. The timing of technical assistance is critical due to the historic levels of broadband funding made available under the IIJA. The programs created and funded under the IIJA are beginning to disburse funding and technical assistance is critical to ensure unserved rural communities are able to participate in these programs, successfully implement projects and properly manage funds.

Application To Be a Qualified Entity to Receive Medicare Data for Performance Measurement / Reapplication / Annual Report Worksheet (CMS-10394)

Key Information

Abstract

Section 10332 of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA) requires the Secretary to make standardized extracts of Medicare claims data under Parts A, B, and D available to ''qualified entities'' for the evaluation of the performance of providers of services and suppliers. The statute provides the Secretary with discretion to establish criteria to determine whether an entity is qualified to use claims data to evaluate the performance of providers of services and suppliers. We are proposing at section CFR 401.703 to evaluate an organization's eligibility across three areas: organizational and governance capabilities, addition of claims data from other sources (as required in the statute), and data privacy and security. This is the application through which organizations will provide information to CMS to determine whether they will be approved as a qualified entity.

Abstract

PROPOSED RULE: Information collections contained in Regulatory Enhancements for Reactor Licensing, Decommissioning, and Operational Oversight, 10 CFR Parts 10 CFR 20, 21, 50, 52, 53, 55, 70, 72, and 75, and NRC Forms 361, 396, 398, 536 The NRC is proposing to amend its regulations to provide regulatory enhancements for reactor licensing, decommissioning, and operational oversight. The NRC identified potential changes across various parts to Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations, as well as NRC forms. This effort is consistent with, and implements direction in, the recently issued E.O. 14300. This proposed rule covers a wide range of topics, including the following areas that would result in new or revised changes in recordkeeping and reporting requirements: a. Part 21 Clarifications (parts 21, 50, and 53). b. Reporting Requirements for Nonemergency Events for Nuclear Power Plants (part 50). c. Decommissioning Licensing Enhancements (parts 20, 50, 52, and 53). d. Financial Qualifications and Decommissioning Trust Fund Use (parts 50, 52, and 53). e. Probabilistic Risk Assessment Requirements (part 50). f. Notification of Initial Fuel Load (parts 52 and 53). g. Requirements for Evaluation of Generic Issues and Operating Experience (part 52). h. Standard Design Approvals (parts 50, 52, and 53). i. Updates to the Operator Licensing Programs (parts 50, 53, and 55). j. Recordkeeping and Reporting Requirements (parts 50, 52, 53, 70, and 72). This supporting statement includes burden associated with revised information collection in parts 21, 50, 52, 53, 55, 70, and 72, as well as NRC Forms 361, 396, 398, and 536. NOTE: Because this rule results in a net burden reduction, the data fields in the submission reflect a nominal entry of 1 hour and 1 response. Please refer to the supporting statement and burden tables for the actual burden estimates.

Marine Recreational Information Program Access-Point Angler Intercept Survey

Key Information

Abstract

This request is to extend the MRIP Access-Point Angler Intercept Survey (OMB Control No. 0648-0659). Data collected from the APAIS are used to estimate the finfish catch per angler of recreational saltwater fishers. These APAIS estimates are combined with estimates derived from independent but complementary surveys of fishing effort, the Fishing Effort Survey (OMB Control No. 0648-0652) and the For-Hire Survey (OMB Control No. 0648-0709), to estimate total, state-level fishing catch by species. These estimates are used in the development, implementation, and monitoring of fishery management programs by the NMFS, regional fishery management councils, interstate marine fisheries commissions, and state fishery agencies. These data are required to carry out provisions of the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act (16 U.S.C. 1801 et seq.), as amended, regarding conservation and management of fishery resources.

Alaska License Limitation Program for Groundfish, Crab, and Scallops

Key Information

Abstract

This is a request by the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) Alaska Region for an extension of this currently approved information collection, which contains requirements for transfer of License Limitation Program (LLP) licenses for the commercial groundfish, crab, and scallop fisheries. The purpose of this collection is to determine whether a transfer is eligible and if endorsements meet regulatory requirements for licensing and permits. An essential feature of the LLP is the ability for participants to transfer their LLP license. Without the ability to track the movement of LLP licenses, NMFS would be unable to effectively manage the LLP. This collection contains the Application for the transfer of groundfish and crab LLP licenses, the Application for the transfer of scallop LLP licenses, and the Transfer appeal. There are no changes or revisions to this collection.
