NMFS has received a request from the U.S. Department of the Navy (Navy) for Incidental Take Regulations (ITR) and an associated Letter of Authorization (LOA) pursuant to the Marine Mammal Protection Act (MMPA). The requested regulations would govern the authorization of take of marine mammals incidental to training and testing activities using Surveillance Towed Array Sensor System (SURTASS) Low Frequency Active (LFA) sonar systems in the western and central North Pacific and eastern Indian oceans over the course of 7 years from August 2026 through August 2033.

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS), U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) invites the general public and other Federal agencies to comment upon this proposed revision of a currently approved collection of information. In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) of 1995, the information collection notice is published in the Federal Register to obtain comments regarding the nature of the information collection, the categories of respondents, the estimated burden (i.e. the time, effort, and resources used by the respondents to respond), the estimated cost to the respondent, and the actual information collection instruments.
The Department of State is seeking Office of Management and Budget (OMB) approval for the information collection described below. In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, we are requesting comments on this collection from all interested individuals and organizations. The purpose of this notice is to allow 60 days for public comment preceding submission of the collection to OMB.
The Department of State ("Department") is amending regulations governing the Diversity Immigrant Visa Program ("DV Program") to improve the integrity of, and combat fraud in, the program. These amendments require a petitioner to the DV Program to provide valid, unexpired passport information and to upload a scan of the biographic and signature page in the electronic entry form or to otherwise indicate that he or she is exempt from this requirement. Additionally, the Department is standardizing and amending its regulations to add the word "shall" to simplify guidance for consular officers; ensure the use of the term "sex" in lieu of "gender"; and replace the term "age" in the DV Program regulations with the phrase "date of birth" to accurately reflect the information collected and maintained by the Department during the immigrant visa process.
In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction of 1995 (PRA), the Executive Office for Immigration Review (EOIR), Department of Justice (DOJ), requested the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) conduct an emergency review and approval of a revision to a currently approved collection of information. EOIR requested and OMB granted emergency approval on March 2, 2026, authorizing the revised collection through July 31, 2026. EOIR is providing the public with an opportunity to comment on the proposed collection.
The Executive Office for Immigration Review (EOIR) at the Department of Justice (DOJ) will be submitting the following information collection request to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for review and approval in accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995.
In accordance with the Privacy Act of 1974, the DoD is modifying and reissuing a current System of Records Notice (SORN) titled, "Defense Manpower Data Center Data Base," DMDC 01. The SORN is being retitled "Uniformed Services Human Resources Information System," to reflect the updated name of the underlying database. The system is designed to collect and maintain records that support a single central facility within the DoD. Its primary functions include assessing manpower trends, supporting personnel and readiness operations, conducting longitudinal statistical analyses, identifying current and former DoD civilians and Armed Forces personnel for the purpose of detecting fraud and abuse of pay and benefits programs, and registering eligible individuals and their authorized dependents for medical examinations, treatment, or other qualified benefits. The system also facilitates the collection of debts owed to the United States Government and to state and local governments. As part of this update, two routine uses are being revised to reflect changes in computer matching activities. Specifically, the proposed revisions expand the eligible population for data sharing with the Department of Education (DoE) to support a new computer matching program, and remove routine uses associated with the Public Assistance Reporting Information System (PARIS), as the DoD no longer participates in that program. Additional modifications throughout the SORN improve clarity and ensure the information reflects current operational practices.
