    Under the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520), federal agencies must obtain 
approval from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for each

1320.3(c) and includes agency requests or requirements that members of 
the public submit reports, keep records, or provide information to a

submitting the collection to OMB for approval. To comply with this 
requirement, CMS is publishing this notice.
