OMB Control Number: 1010–0057.
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 manage the mineral

resources of the OCS. Such rules and
regulations will apply to all operations
conducted under a lease, right-of-use
and easement, and pipeline right-ofway. Operations on the OCS must
preserve, protect, and develop oil and
natural gas resources in a manner that
is consistent with the need to make such
resources available to meet the Nation’s
energy needs as rapidly as possible; to
balance orderly energy resource
development with protection of human,
marine, and coastal environments; to
ensure the public a fair and equitable
return on the resources of the OCS; and
to preserve and maintain free enterprise
competition.
Section 1332(6) states that
‘‘operations in the [O]uter Continental
Shelf should be conducted in a safe
manner by well-trained personnel using
technology, precautions, and techniques
sufficient to prevent or minimize the
likelihood of blowouts, loss of well
control, fires, spillages, physical
obstruction to other users of the waters
or subsoil and seabed, or other
occurrences which may cause damage to
the environment or to property, or
endanger life or health.’’ Section
1334(a)(8) requires that regulations
prescribed by the Secretary include
provisions ‘‘for compliance with the
National Ambient Air Quality Standards
[NAAQS] pursuant to the Clean Air Act
(42 U.S.C. 7401 et seq.), to the extent
that activities authorized under this Act
significantly affect the air quality of any
State.’’ Section 1843(b) calls for
‘‘regulations requiring all materials,
equipment, tools, containers, and all
other items used on the Outer
Continental Shelf to be properly color
coded, stamped, or labeled, wherever
practicable, with the owner’s
identification prior to actual use.’’
This is a routine information
collection request (ICR) concerning the
regulations at 30 CFR part 250, subpart
C, Pollution Prevention and Control. It
also covers the related Notices to
Lessees and Operators (NTLs) that
BOEMRE issues to clarify and provide
additional guidance on some aspects of
the regulations.
We will protect information from
respondents considered proprietary
under the Freedom of Information Act
(5 U.S.C. 552) and its implementing
regulations (43 CFR part 2) and under
regulations at 30 CFR 250.197, ‘‘Data
and information to be made available to
the public or for limited release.’’ No
items of a sensitive nature are collected.
Responses are mandatory.
Frequency: On occasion, monthly, or
annually, daily for inspection
recordkeeping; varies by section.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: 30 CFR Part 251, Geological and
Geophysical (G&G) Explorations of the
Outer Continental Shelf.
BOEMRE Form(s): MMS–0327.
OMB Control Number: 1010–0048.
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. Operations on the OCS must
preserve, protect, and develop oil and
natural gas resources in a manner that
is consistent with the need to make such
resources available to meet the Nation’s
energy needs as rapidly as possible; to
balance orderly energy resource
development with protection of human,
marine, and coastal environments; to
ensure the public a fair and equitable
return on the resources of the OCS; and
to preserve and maintain free enterprise
competition.
The OCS Lands Act (43 U.S.C. 1340)
also states that ‘‘any person authorized
by the Secretary may conduct geological
and geophysical explorations in the
[O]uter Continental Shelf, which do not
interfere with or endanger actual
operations under any lease maintained
or granted pursuant to this OCS Lands
Act, and which are not unduly harmful
to aquatic life in such area.’’ The section
PO 00000
Frm 00065
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
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 do not disturb a site, structure,
or object of historical or archaeological
significance. Applicants for permits are
required to submit BOEMRE Form
MMS–0327 to provide the information
necessary to evaluate their
qualifications.
The OCS Lands Act (43 U.S.C. 1352)
further requires that certain costs be
reimbursed to the parties submitting
required G&G information and data.
Under the OCS Lands 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 of BOEMRE
and is not used in the normal conduct
of the business of the permittee.
The Independent Offices
Appropriations Act (31 U.S.C. 9701), the
Omnibus Appropriations Bill (Pub. L.
104–133, 110 Stat. 1321, April 26,
1996), and OMB Circular A–25,
authorize Federal agencies to recover
the full cost of services that confer
special benefits. Under the Department
of the Interior’s implementing policy,
BOEMRE is required to charge the full
cost for services that provide special
benefits or privileges to an identifiable
non-Federal recipient above and beyond
those that accrue to the public at large.
The G&G permits are subject to cost
recovery, and BOEMRE regulations
specify the filing fee for the application.
Regulations at 30 CFR part 251
implement these statutory requirements.
We use the information 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
determine eligibility for reimbursement
from the government for certain costs.
The information is necessary to
determine if the applicants for permits
or filers of notices meet the
qualifications specified by the OCS
Lands Act. BOEMRE uses information
collected to understand the G&G
characteristics of oil- and gas-bearing
physiographic regions of the OCS. It
aids the Secretary in obtaining a proper

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: 30 CFR Part 250, Subpart C, Pollution Prevention and
Control.
OMB Control Number: 1010-0057.
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 manage the mineral resources of the OCS. Such rules and
regulations will apply to all operations conducted under a lease,
right-of-use and easement, and pipeline right-of-way. Operations on the
OCS must preserve, protect, and develop oil and natural gas resources
in a manner that is consistent with the need to make such resources
available to meet the Nation's energy needs as rapidly as possible; to
balance orderly energy resource development with protection of human,
marine, and coastal environments; to ensure the public a fair and
equitable return on the resources of the OCS; and to preserve and
maintain free enterprise competition.
Section 1332(6) states that ``operations in the [O]uter Continental
Shelf should be conducted in a safe manner by well-trained personnel
using technology, precautions, and techniques sufficient to prevent or
minimize the likelihood of blowouts, loss of well control, fires,
spillages, physical obstruction to other users of the waters or subsoil
and seabed, or other occurrences which may cause damage to the
environment or to property, or endanger life or health.'' Section
1334(a)(8) requires that regulations prescribed by the Secretary
include provisions ``for compliance with the National Ambient Air
Quality Standards [NAAQS] pursuant to the Clean Air Act (42 U.S.C. 7401
et seq.), to the extent that activities authorized under this Act
significantly affect the air quality of any State.'' Section 1843(b)
calls for ``regulations requiring all materials, equipment, tools,
containers, and all other items used on the Outer Continental Shelf to
be properly color coded, stamped, or labeled, wherever practicable,
with the owner's identification prior to actual use.''
This is a routine information collection request (ICR) concerning
the regulations at 30 CFR part 250, subpart C, Pollution Prevention and
Control. It also covers the related Notices to Lessees and Operators
(NTLs) that BOEMRE issues to clarify and provide additional guidance on
some aspects of the regulations.
We will protect information from respondents considered proprietary
under the Freedom of Information Act (5 U.S.C. 552) and its
implementing regulations (43 CFR part 2) and under regulations at 30
CFR 250.197, ``Data and information to be made available to the public
or for limited release.'' No items of a sensitive nature are collected.
Responses are mandatory.
Frequency: On occasion, monthly, or annually, daily for inspection
recordkeeping; varies by section.
[[Page 38411]]
Description of Respondents: Potential respondents comprise Federal
OCS oil and gas or sulphur lessees and 17 states.
Estimated Reporting and Recordkeeping Hour Burden: The currently
approved annual reporting burden for this collection is 198,866 hours.
The following chart details the individual components and respective
hour burden estimates of this ICR. In calculating the burdens, we
assumed that respondents perform certain requirements in the normal
course of their activities. We consider these to be usual and customary

Estimated Reporting and Recordkeeping Non-Hour Cost Burden: We have
identified no non-hour cost burdens for this collection.
Public Disclosure Statement: The PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501, et seq.)
provides that an agency may not conduct or sponsor a collection of
information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number.
Until OMB approves a collection of information, you are not obligated
to respond.
Comments: Before submitting an ICR to OMB, PRA section
3506(c)(2)(A) requires each agency ``* * * to provide notice * * * and
otherwise consult with members of the public and affected agencies
concerning each proposed collection of information * * *''. Agencies
must specifically solicit comments to: (a) Evaluate whether the
proposed collection of information is necessary for the agency to
perform its duties, including whether the information is useful; (b)
evaluate the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information; (c) enhance the quality,
usefulness, and clarity of the information to be collected; and (d)
minimize the burden on the respondents, including the use of automated
collection techniques or other forms of information technology.
Agencies must also estimate the non-hour paperwork cost burdens to
respondents or recordkeepers resulting from the collection of
information. Therefore, if you have costs to generate, maintain, and
disclose this information, you should comment and provide your total
capital and startup cost components or annual operation, maintenance,
and purchase of service components. You should describe the methods you
use to estimate major cost factors, including system and technology
acquisition, expected useful life of capital equipment, discount
rate(s), and the period over which you incur costs. Capital and startup
costs include, among other items, computers and software you purchase
to prepare for collecting information, monitoring, and record storage
facilities. You should not include estimates for equipment or services
purchased: (i) Before October 1, 1995; (ii) to comply with requirements
not associated with the information collection; (iii) for reasons other
than to provide information or keep records for the Government; or (iv)
as part of
[[Page 38412]]
customary and usual business or private practices.
We will summarize written responses to this notice and address them
in our submission for OMB approval. As a result of your comments, we
will make any necessary adjustments to the burden in our submission to
OMB.
Public Comment Procedures: Before including your address, phone
number, email address, or other personal identifying information in
your comment, you should be aware that your entire comment--including
your personal identifying information--may be made publicly available
at any time. While you can ask us in your comment to withhold your
personal identifying information from public review, we cannot
guarantee that we will be able to do so.
