SUMMARY: To comply with the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(PRA), we are notifying the public that
we have submitted to OMB an
information collection request (ICR) to
renew approval of the paperwork
requirements in the regulations under
30 CFR part 202—Royalties and part
206—Product Valuation. This notice
also provides the public a second
opportunity to comment on the
paperwork burden of these regulatory
requirements. The title of this ICR is ‘‘30
CFR part 202—Royalties, subpart C—
Federal and Indian Oil, and subpart J—
Gas Production From Indian Leases; and
part 206—Product Valuation, subpart
B—Indian Oil, and subpart E—Indian
Gas.’’ The title reflects the previous
consolidation of portions of six ICRs
relating to Indian oil and gas leases. The
six ICRs were previously titled:
• 1010–0061: 30 CFR part 206,
subpart B—Indian Oil, § 206.55—

Note: ICR 1010–0095 (discontinued May
25, 2005) referenced both Indian and Federal
citations. Indian citations now are referenced
in 1010–0103, and Federal citations are
referenced in 1010–0136; each ICR uses Form
MMS–4393. However, the form resides in
ICR 1010–0136 where most of the burden
hours are incurred.
