An Information Collection Request describes reporting, record keeping, survey, forms or other information collection requirements mandated on the public by a Federal agency.
The Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) was enacted to minimize the burden that the government imposes on the public and improve the quality and use of Federal information. The PRA stipulates that every Federal agency must obtain approval from the Office of Management and Budget before collecting the same or similar information from 10 or more members of the public.
A major requirement of the PRA is for each collection of information to display a valid control number and expiration date. You can find BOEM’s current OMB approved information collections below and on OMB’s website, www.reginfo.gov.
