SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: 30 CFR Part 280, Prospecting for
Minerals Other than Oil, Gas, and
Sulphur on the Outer Continental Shelf.
OMB Control Number: 1010–0072.
Forms: MMS–134, MMS–135, and
MMS–136.
Abstract: The Outer Continental Shelf
(OCS) Lands Act, as amended (43 U.S.C.
1331 et seq. and 43 U.S.C. 1801 et seq.),
authorizes the Secretary of the Interior
(Secretary) to prescribe rules and
regulations to administer leasing of the
OCS. Such rules and regulations will
apply to all operations conducted under
a lease. Section 1337(k) of the OCS
Lands Act authorizes the Secretary
‘‘* * * to grant to the qualified persons
offering the highest cash bonuses on a
basis of competitive bidding leases of
any mineral other than oil, gas, and
sulphur in any area of the outer
Continental Shelf not then under lease
for such mineral upon such royalty,
rental, and other terms and conditions
as the Secretary may prescribe at the
PO 00000
Frm 00083

Sfmt 4703
time of offering the area for lease.’’ An
amendment to the OCS Lands Act (Pub.
L. 103–426) authorizes the Secretary to
negotiate agreements (in lieu of the
previously required competitive bidding
process) for the use of OCS sand, gravel,
and shell resources for certain specified
types of public uses. The specified uses
will support construction of
governmental projects for beach
nourishment, shore protection, and
wetlands enhancement; or any project
authorized by the Federal Government.
Section 1340 states that ‘‘* * * any
person authorized by the Secretary may
conduct geological and geophysical
[G&G] explorations in the outer
Continental Shelf, which do not
interfere with or endanger actual
operations under any lease maintained
or granted pursuant to this Act, and
which are not unduly harmful to aquatic
life in such area.’’ The section further
requires that, permits to conduct such
activities may only be issued if it is
determined that the applicant is
qualified; the activities are not
polluting, hazardous, or unsafe; they do
not interfere with other users of the
area; and they do not disturb a site,
structure, or object of historical or
archaeological significance.
Respondents are required to submit
form MMS–134 to provide the
information necessary to evaluate their
qualifications. Upon approval,
respondents are issued a permit on
either form MMS–135 or MMS–136
depending on whether they are
prospecting or conducting scientific
research for ‘‘geological’’ or
‘‘geophysical’’ mineral resources.
Section 1352 further requires that
certain costs be reimbursed to the
parties submitting required G&G
information and data. Under the Act,
permittees are to be reimbursed for the
costs of reproducing any G&G data
required to be submitted. Permittees are
to be reimbursed also for the reasonable
cost of processing geophysical
information required to be submitted
when processing is in a form or manner
required by the Director and is not used
in the normal conduct of the business of
the permittee.
MMS OCS Regions collect
information required under part 280 to
ensure there is no environmental
degradation, personal harm or unsafe
operations and conditions, damage to
historical or archaeological sites, or
interference with other uses; to analyze
and evaluate preliminary or planned
drilling activities; to monitor progress
and activities in the OCS; to acquire
G&G data and information collected
under a Federal permit offshore; and to
