ICR Desk Officer List

This Excel workbook is intended to replace many of the functionalities of the previous system (ICRAS) used to send 

Information Collection Requests (ICRs) to reviewers in the Office of Environmental Information, and mimics the online 

forms that must accompany ICR submissions to OMB.

Step-by-Step Instructions:

Email this completed workbook to your OEI Desk Officer along with all other supporting documents CLEARLY LABELED, 

such as:

Save this workbook with a new filename reflecting the following format: “2060.07 Forms.xlsx” (e.g. for ICR #2060.07)

Use the “Notes” tab to capture any relevant information that could not be included on the Part 1 & 2 forms, or which 

would be useful to the OEI Desk Officers reviewing your package.

Complete Part 2. This form requests specific details about the scope and burden of the information that you will be 

collecting. Your ICR may have several Part 2 forms to cover specific types of Information Collections (ICs). At minimum, 

the burden on different categories of respondents (i.e. Private sector, Individuals, State/Local/Tribal governments) 

must be divided into individual Part 2 IC forms. However, you may choose or need to break down your ICR burden 

further in order to clearly characterize different types of response.

Complete Part 1. This form gathers basic information about your ICR.

If you are renewing or revising an existing approved ICR, go to http://www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRASearch and find 

the record of your previous ICR submission. Sort results by “Current Expiration Date” to ensure that you pull up the 

most recent version of your ICR.
http://www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRASearch

Consult RegInfo.gov to see how many ICs were used previously (if renewing or revising an ICR). Create as many 

copies of the blank Part 2 worksheet as needed before starting. (To do this, right-click on the “Part 2” tab, select 

“Move or Copy”, then check the “Create a copy” box before hitting “OK”.)

Fill out the Part 2 IC form with information from your Supporting Statement. You may also reference RegInfo.gov 

to copy over information that will not be changing from your previous approved ICR.

If renewing or revising an existing ICR, enter the currently approved total number of responses, burden and nonlabor cost from RegInfo.gov into cells G78-G80. The rest of the “Burden Worksheet” section should be taken 

from your new supporting statement.

Supporting Statement A (and B, if required)

Draft (unsigned) 2nd Federal Register Notice

All forms & instruments listed in Part 2 

Misc. Supporting Documents (such as separate appendices)

A copy of the Final Rule document (only for Final Rule ICRs being submitted to OMB in advance of rule 

publication)
