Abstract

This request is for the continued clearance of data collection and reporting requirements to enable the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to better assess the effectiveness of discretionary-funded programs included in this information collection request (ICR). The discretionary-funded programs included in this ICR are the Multifamily Housing Service Coordinator Grant Program, the Multifamily Housing Budget-Based Service Coordinator Program, and the Resident Opportunity and Self Sufficiency Service Coordinator Grant Program (ROSS). This proposed collection, titled Standards for Success Reporting, has three key components that improve data collection and reporting for participating programs. First is the standardization of data collection and reporting requirements across programs which increases data comparability and utilization. Second is the ability to report on measurable outcomes and to align them with higher-level agency objectives. And third is the collection of record-level data, instead of aggregate data. Collecting de-identified data at the level of the service recipient allows for more meaningful analysis, improved management, and the ability to demonstrate the progress and achievements of the funding recipients and the programs. Standards for Success accepts data submission by direct data input through the HUD-funded GrantSolutions online data collection and reporting tool (OLDC) and by data file upload, accommodating file formats in Microsoft Excel or Extensible Markup Language (XML).

Abstract

The below represents the pricing disclosures and sales reporting requirements currently codified in the GSAR covered by this information collection. a. Solicitation requirements. ● GSAR 515.408(b) prescribes the commercial sales practices format that applicable FSS offerors are to complete when submitting their offer. ● GSAR 515.408(c) prescribes the instructions for completing the commercial sales practices format prescribed in 515.408(b). FSS offerors are required to submit the information required in GSAR 515.408(b) as part of their offer. b. Clause requirements. ● Clause prescription. GSAR section 538.273 includes the prescription for the following GSAR clauses: 552.238-80; 552.238-81; 552.238-83; and 552.238-85. ● Clauses. The GSAR clauses covered by this information collection apply to contractors that hold a FSS contract that are subject to certain pricing disclosures and sales reporting requirements (e.g., sometimes referred to as non-TDR contracts). These GSAR clauses require contractors to submit information, as necessary, as part of contract performance. The following is the information requested per clause: ○ Basic version of GSAR clause 552.238-80, Industrial Funding Fee and Sales Reporting. The basic version of this clause requires contractors to report once a quarter contract sales as well as to remit the Industrial Funding Fee (IFF) due to GSA. Sales reporting includes reporting any instances where “zero” sales occurred during the reporting period as well. ○ Basic version of GSAR clause 552.238-81, Price Reductions. The basic version of this clause requires a contractor to notify the FSS contracting officer of all price reductions to the customer (or category of customers) that was the basis of award. The contractor's report shall include an explanation of the conditions under which the reductions were made. The basic version of this clause also allows the contractor to offer the FSS contracting officer a voluntary Governmentwide price reduction at any time during the contract period. ○ 552.238-83, Examination of Records by GSA. This clause requires contractors (regardless if TDR requirements apply or not) to maintain certain records and to ensure the Administrator of General Services or any duly authorized representative have to and the right to examine any books, documents, papers and records of the contractor involving transactions related to this contract for overbillings, billing errors, compliance with GSAR clauses 552.238-81 and 552.238-80. ○ 552.238-85, Contractor’s Billing Responsibilities. The clause allows a contractor to authorize their dealer(s) to bill ordering activities and accept payment on behalf of the contractor (regardless if TDR requirements apply or not). In this case, the contractor and dealer must enter into an agreement that includes, but not limited to, the dealer agreeing to maintain certain records on sales under the contractor’s FSS contract. This record keeping requirement does not add any additional burden to what is already captured by GSAR clause 552.238-80. ○ 552.238-120, Economic Price Adjustment—Federal Supply Schedule Contracts. This clause allows contractors (regardless if TDR requirements apply or not) to request economic price adjustments during contract performance. Contractors requesting price adjustment must submit requests that fully conform to the requirements of the economic price adjustment method and include sufficient information to support the request.

Abstract

This information collection applies to General Services Administration (GSA) construction contractors’ proposals to establish the final estimated cost of the work, to convert the contract to a firm-fixed-price, and to determine the final settlement. Construction Manager as Constructor (CMc) refers to a project management and contracting technique that is one of three predominant methods used for acquiring construction services by GSA. The other two methods are design-bid-build and design-build. The information is used by contracting officers to evaluate proposals and negotiate contract modifications during contract administration. GSA would be unable to assess readily and equitably offers fairly and competitively if they were not allowed to collect data required in the information collection. Method: GSAR 552.236-79, Construction-Contractor-as-Constructor, requires the contractor to submit a proposal to establish the final estimated cost of the work, to convert the contract to a firm-fixed-price, and to determine the final settlement.

Abstract

The OCC, the Board, and the FDIC require the information collected on the Call Reports to fulfill their statutory obligation to supervise national banks and Federal savings associations. These institutions are required to file detailed schedules of assets, liabilities, and capital accounts in the form of a condition report and summary statement as well as detailed schedules of operating income and expense, sources and disposition of income, and changes in equity capital. The agencies, each of which is submitting a separate request, hereby requests approval from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act for a proposal to extend for three years, with revisions, the Consolidated Reports of Condition and Income (Call Report). These reports are currently approved collections of information. On July 10, 2025, the agencies, under the auspices of the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council (FFIEC), requested public comment for 60 days on a proposal to revise and extend for three years the Consolidated Reports of Condition and Income (Call Report) (FFIEC 031, FFIEC 041, and FFIEC 051), which are currently approved collections of information (Call Report proposal). The revisions described in the Call Report proposal related to proposed revisions to the enhanced supplementary leverage ratio standards applicable to global systemically important bank holding companies and their depository institution subsidiaries under the agencies’ regulatory capital rules. The agencies are proceeding with the proposed revisions to the FFIEC 031 report form and instructions, but with certain modifications. These revisions to reporting requirements would take effect as of the June 30, 2026, report date.

Abstract

The goal of the Sexual Risk Avoidance Education (SRAE) performance measures is to collect performance measures data from SRAE grant recipients on program structure, cost, and support for implementation, including how programs addressed the A–F topics; attendance, reach, and dosage; and program participants’ characteristics, sexual and other risk behaviors prior to program participation, and outcomes at program exit. The performance measures have and will continue to allow both the Administration for Children and Families (ACF) program office and grant recipients to monitor and report on progress in implementing SRAE programs and informs technical assistance. ACF is requesting approval for a temporary extension of the existing performance measures (through June 2026), followed by transition to revised measures (from July 2026 onward). The revised measures are designed to (1) address feedback from grant recipients to simplify and clarify participant surveys, (2) align race and ethnicity measures with current OMB guidance, and (3) ensure the measures meet FYSB data needs by removing items related to COVID-19 and others not widely utilized and replacing them with other measures of interest. The proposed changes shorten the data collection instruments and will reduce respondent burden. We expect a 61 percent reduction in the annual burden hours under this request compared to the previously approved annual burden. Current and revised versions of Instruments 1 through 4 are included in this submission. We are also renaming the ICR to Sexual Risk Avoidance Education (SRAE) Performance Measures.

Abstract

Section 2003 of the SUPPORT for Patients and Communities Act of 2018 requires that prescribing of a Schedule II, III, IV, or V controlled substance under Medicare Part D be done electronically in accordance with an electronic prescription drug program beginning January 1, 2021, subject to any exceptions, which HHS may specify. In the calendar year (CY) 2021 and 2022 Physician Fee Schedule (PFS) final rules, CMS finalized the electronic prescribing for controlled substances (EPCS) requirements and exceptions at 42 CFR 423.160(a)(5). Compliance for prescribers not in long-term care facilities begins in CY 2023. Compliance for prescribers in long-term care facilities begins in CY 2025. EPCS requirements do not require prescribers or pharmacies to submit additional data to CMS; however, CMS did finalize one exception that requires data collection. The EPCS exception, at § 423.160(a)(5)(iv), requires a prescriber to apply for a waiver if the prescriber is unable to conduct EPCS due to circumstances beyond the prescriber's control. This document covers the burden associated for the request for the waiver exclusion at § 423.160(a)(5)(iv).
