accuracy of the agency’s estimate of the
burden of the proposed collection of
information; (3) Enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected; and (4) Minimize the
burden of the collection of information
on those who are to respond; including
through the use of appropriate
automated collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submission of
responses.
This notice also lists the following
information:
Title of Proposal: Housing Choice
Voucher Program Administrative Fee
Study Pretest.
OMB Approval Number: 2528–0267.
Form Numbers: None.
Description of the Need for the
Information and Its Proposed Use: This
request is for the clearance of on-site
data collection from public housing
agencies (PHAs) to test the methodology
for the Housing Choice Voucher (HCV)
Program Administrative Fee study. The
purpose of the study is to collect
accurate information on the costs of
administering the HCV program across a
representative sample of high
performing and efficient PHAs and to
use this information to develop a new
administrative fee allocation formula for
the HCV program. The study is
proceeding in multiple phases. This
request is for data collection to test the
methodology for estimating program
costs in the study. We propose to use
two main methods for collecting cost
data: (1) Measuring the time that front
line staff spend working on the program
and translating that time into costs
using the salaries and benefits of the
staff doing the work and adjusting for
market factors; and (2) collecting
information via interviews and
document review on the overhead costs
and other costs related to HCV program
administration that cannot be captured
by measuring staff time spent on the
program. We will test these data
collection approaches at between 5 and
10 PHAs across the country. The results
of the pretest will be used to refine the
methodology used for the full study of
administrative fees with a larger sample
of PHAs.

further fractionation. The Act requires

Abstract: The Outer Continental Shelf
(OCS) Lands Act, as amended (43 U.S.C.

authorizes the Secretary of the Interior
to prescribe rules and regulations to
administer leasing of mineral resources
on the OCS. Such rules and regulations

Frm 00058

will apply to all operations conducted
under a lease, right-of-use and
easement, or unit. Sections 11 and 25 of
the amended OCS Lands Act require the
holders of OCS oil and gas or sulphur
leases to submit exploration plans (EPs)
and development and production plans
(DPPs) to the Secretary for approval
prior to commencing these activities. As
a Federal agency, we have a continuing
affirmative duty to comply with the
Endangered Species Act (ESA). This
includes a substantive duty to carry out
any agency action in a manner that is
not likely to jeopardize protected
species as well as a procedural duty to
consult with the Fish and Wildlife
Service (FWS) and National Oceanic
and Atmospheric Administration
Fisheries (NOAA Fisheries) before
engaging in a discretionary action that
may affect a protected species.

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. Several requests for
approval required in subpart B are
subject to cost recovery, and BOEMRE
regulations specify service fees for these
requests.
Regulations implementing these
responsibilities are under 30 CFR part
250, subpart B. Responses are
mandatory. No questions of a sensitive
nature are asked. BOEMRE will protect
information considered proprietary
under the Freedom of Information Act

be made available to the public or for
limited inspection,’’ and 30 CFR part
