SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On March
6, 2006, the BLM published a notice in
the Federal Register (71 FR 11223)
requesting comments on the information
collection. The comment period closed
on May 5, 2006. The BLM did not
receive any comments. We are soliciting
comments on the following:
(a) Whether the collection of
information is necessary for the proper
functioning of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility;
(b) The accuracy of our estimates of
the information collection burden,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions we use;
(c) Ways to enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information
collected; and
(d) Ways to minimize the information
collection burden on those who are to
respond, including the use of
appropriate automated, electronic,
mechanical, or other technological
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology.
Title: Free Use Application and
Permit (Vegetative or Mineral Materials)
(43 CFR parts 3620 and 5510).
OMB Control Number: 1004–0001.
Abstract: The BLM uses Form 5510–
1, Free Use Application and Permit
(Vegetative or Mineral Material), under
43 CFR part 5510 to collect this
information. The PL–167, Surface
Resources Act of July 23, 1955, gives the
Secretary the discretion to permit the
free use of vegetative or mineral
materials for use other than commercial
or industrial purposes or resale. The
Secretary of the Interior may also permit
mining claimants the free use of
vegetative or mineral materials.
BLM uses the information provided
by the applicant(s) to:
(1) Maintain an inventory of
vegetative and mineral information; and
(2) Adjudicate your rights to
vegetative and mineral resources.
An applicant must file an application
for a permit before removing any
vegetative or mineral resources from the
public lands.
Burden Estimate Per Form: We
estimate it takes 5 minutes to complete
Form 5510–1. Individuals (residents of
states) submit the form on occasion to
the BLM.
Annual Responses: 476.
Application Fee Per Response: 0.
Annual Burden Hours: 40.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
On August
10, 1999, MMS published a final rule
titled ‘‘Amendments to Gas Valuation
Regulations for Indian Leases,’’ (64 FR
43506) with an effective date of January
1, 2000. The gas regulations apply to all
gas production from Indian (tribal or
allotted) oil and gas leases, except leases
on the Osage Indian Reservation.
The rule requires that MMS publish
major portion prices for each designated
area not associated with an index zone
for each production month beginning
January 2000, along with a due date for
additional royalty payments. See 30
CFR 206.174(a)(4)(ii) (2005). If
additional royalties are due based on a
published major portion price, the
lessee must submit an amended Form
MMS–2014, Report of Sales and Royalty
Remittance, to MMS by the due date. If
additional royalties are not paid by the
due date, late payment interest, under
30 CFR 218.54 (2005), will accrue from
the due date until payment is made, and
an amended Form MMS–2014 is
received. The table below lists the major
portion prices for all designated areas
not associated with an index zone. The
due date is 60 days after the publication
date of this notice.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Major Portion Prices and Due Date for

(MMS), Interior.
ACTION: Notice of major portion prices
for calendar year 2005.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: Final regulations for valuing
gas produced from Indian leases,
published on August 10, 1999, require
MMS to determine major portion prices
and notify industry by publishing the
prices in the Federal Register. The
regulations also require MMS to publish
a due date for industry to pay additional
royalty based on the major portion
prices. This notice provides the major
portion prices for the 12 months of
2005. The due date to pay additional
royalties based on the major portion
prices is 60 days after the publication
date of this notice.
DATES: March 19, 2007.
