FEMA Publishes CBRNResponder Network 60-day ICR Notice

Today FEMA published a 60-day information collection request (ICR) notice in the Federal Register (91 FR 237-6238) for a new ICR for “CBRNResponder Network”, collections that are already in use without an approved ICR number. According to the FEMA website: “CBRNResponder is a secure platform for chemical, biological or radioactive/nuclear (CBRN) incident data sharing and multi-hazard event management. It serves as a hub and one-stop shop for all-hazards planning, preparedness, operational tools and resources.” The ICR will support three FEMA forms:

FEMA Form FF-104-FY-24-125, New Users Request for an Account,

FEMA Form FF-104-FY-24-124, New User Request for an Organization, and

FEMA Form FF-104-FY-24-126, Users Submitting Hazard Specific Data.

NOTE: Links to the forms will be available when FEMA submits the 30-day ICR notice to OMB’s Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA).

The table below shows the burden estimate for this new ICR:

The CBRNResponder Network website consists of a common set pages for all CBRN responders and separate resources specifically for ChemResponders, BioResponders, RadResponders, and the Interagency Modeling and Atmospheric Assessment Center (IMAAC). Most of the resources on these pages are only fully accessible to registered responders.

FEMA is soliciting comments on this burden estimate. Comments may be submitted via the Federal eRulemaking Portal (www.Regulations.gov: Docket # FEMA-2024-0032). Comments should be submitted by April 13^th, 2026.
