SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Abstract
Private businesses under contract to
the National Park Service manage food,
lodging, tours, whitewater rafting,
boating, and many other recreational
activities and amenities in more than
100 national parks. These services gross
more than $1 billion every year and
provide jobs for more than 25,000
people during peak season.
The regulations at 36 CFR part 51
primarily implement Title IV of the
National Parks Omnibus Management
Act of 1998 (Pub. L. 105–391), which
provides legislative authority, policies,
and requirements for the solicitation,
award, and administration of NPS
concession contracts. The information
collection requirements associated with
NPS concessions are currently approved
under four OMB control numbers.
During our review for this renewal, we
discovered some additional
requirements that need OMB approval.
In this revision of 1024–0029, we are
including all of the information
collection requirements associated with
applying for and operating NPS
concessions. If OMB approves this
revision, we will discontinue OMB
Control Numbers 1024–0125, 1024–
0126, and 1024–0231. Following are the
information collection requirements
associated with soliciting, awarding,
and administering NPS concessions:
(1) Proposals (partially approved
under OMB Control Number 1024–
0125). The public solicitation process
begins with the issuance of a prospectus
to invite the general public to submit
proposals for the contract. The
prospectus describes the terms and
conditions of the concession contract to
be awarded, the procedures to be
followed in the selection of the best
proposal, and the information that must
be provided. Information that we collect
includes, but is not limited to:
• Description of how respondent will
conduct operations to minimize
disturbance to wildlife; protect park
resources; and provide visitors with a
high quality, safe, and enjoyable visitor
experience.
• Organizational structure and history
and experience with similar operations.
• Details on violations or infractions
and how they were handled.
• Financial information and
demonstration that respondent has
credible, proven track record of meeting
obligations.

Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 45 / Thursday, March 7, 2013 / Notices
We collect this information in
narrative and form format. While the
information we collect is currently
approved under OMB Control No. 1024–
0125, OMB has not approved the
following forms:
• Business Organization and Credit
Information (Form 1 or 2).
• Business History Information Form.
• Investment Expenses.
• Investment Assumptions.
• Initial Investments and Start-up
Expenses Form.
• Initial Investments and Start-up
Expenses Assumptions.
• Income Statement Form.

• Cash Flow Statement Form.
• Cash Flow Statement Assumptions.
(2) Amendments. Amendments to
proposals may be submitted in
accordance with 36 CFR 51.15 and
51.32.
(3) Appeals (currently approved
under OMB Control Number 1024–
0231). Regulations at 36 CFR 51.47 state
that any person may appeal to the
Director, NPS a determination that a
concessioner is not a preferred offeror
for the purposes of a right of preference
in renewal and that the appeal must
specify the grounds for the appeal.
(4) Request to Construct a Capital
Improvement (currently approved under
OMB Control Number 1024–0231). In
accordance with 36 CFR 51.54, a request
for approval to construct a capital
improvement must include appropriate
plans and specifications for the capital
improvement. The request must also
include an estimate of the total
construction cost of the capital
improvement. The estimate of the total
construction cost must specify all
elements of the cost in such detail as is
necessary to permit the Director, NPS to
determine that they are elements of
construction cost. The approval
requirements of this and other sections
of 36 CFR part 51 also apply to any
change orders to a capital improvement
project and to any additions to a
structure or replacement of fixtures.
(5) Construction Report (currently
approved under OMB Control Number
1024–0231). In accordance with 36 CFR
51.55, a concessioner obtaining a
leasehold surrender interest must
submit a construction report to the NPS.
The construction report must be
supported by actual invoices of the
capital improvement’s construction cost
together with, if requested by the NPS,
a written certification from a certified
public accountant (CPA).
(6) Application to Sell or Transfer
Concession Operation (currently
approved under OMB Control Number
1024–0126). 36 CFR part 51, Subpart J,
provides that a concessioner must
obtain NPS approval to assign, sell,
convey, grant, contract for, or otherwise
transfer: any concession contract; any
rights to operate under or manage the
performance of a concession contract as
a subconcessioner or otherwise; any
controlling interest in a concessioner or
concession contract; or any leasehold
surrender interest or possessory interest
obtained under a concession contract.
The amount and type of information to
be submitted varies with the type and
complexity of the proposed transaction.
Information includes, but is not limited
to:
• Instruments proposed to implement
the transaction.
• Opinion of counsel that the
proposed transaction is lawful under all
applicable Federal and State laws.
• Narrative description of the
proposed transaction.
• Statement as to the existence and
nature of any litigation relating to the
proposed transaction.
• Description of the management
qualifications, financial background,
and financing and operational plans of
any proposed transferee.
• Description of all financial aspects
of the proposed transaction.

(7) Annual Financial Statements
(currently approved under OMB Control
No. 1024–0029). We use Forms 10–356

statements commonly used by industry
for reporting in conformance with
generally accepted accounting
principles. The information provides a
comprehensive view of the
concessioner’s financial situation at the
end of its fiscal year and the
concessioner’s activity over the
preceding year.
(8) Recordkeeping. In accordance with
36 CFR 51.98, a concessioner (and any
subconcessioner) must keep and make

SUMMARY: To comply with the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(PRA), we are inviting comments on a
collection of information requests that
we will submit to the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for
review and approval. OMB formerly
approved this information collection
request (ICR) under OMB Control

March 6, 2012, OMB approved a new
series number for ONRR and
renumbered our ICRs. This ICR covers
the paperwork requirements in the
regulations under title 30, Code of
Federal Regulations (CFR), parts 1202,
1204, and 1206 (previously 30 CFR parts
202, 204, and 206). Also, this ICR
pertains to (1) Federal oil and gas
valuation regulations, which include
transportation and processing regulatory
allowance limits; and (2) accounting
and auditing relief for marginal
properties. This ICR includes Form
MMS–4393, Request to Exceed
Regulatory Allowance Limitation.
Effective January 1, 2014, ONRR will
discontinue the information collection
requirements of the Stripper Oil royalty
rate reductions in this ICR. The revised
title of this ICR is ‘‘30 CFR Parts 1202,
1204, and 1206, Federal Oil and Gas
Valuation.’’

development on Federal and Indian
lands and the Outer Continental Shelf
(OCS). The Secretary is required, by
various laws, to manage mineral
resource production from Federal and
Indian lands and the OCS, collect the
royalties and other mineral revenues
due, and distribute the funds collected
under those laws. We have posted those
laws pertaining to mineral leases on
Federal and Indian lands and the OCS
at https://www.onrr.gov/Laws_R_D/

Effective October 1, 2010, ONRR
reorganized and transferred our
regulations from chapter II to chapter
XII in 30 CFR, resulting in a change to
our citations. You can find the
information collections covered in this
ICR at 30 CFR part 1202, subparts C and

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Abstract
Private businesses under contract to the National Park Service
manage food, lodging, tours, whitewater rafting, boating, and many
other recreational activities and amenities in more than 100 national
parks. These services gross more than $1 billion every year and provide
jobs for more than 25,000 people during peak season.
The regulations at 36 CFR part 51 primarily implement Title IV of
the National Parks Omnibus Management Act of 1998 (Pub. L. 105-391),
which provides legislative authority, policies, and requirements for
the solicitation, award, and administration of NPS concession
contracts. The information collection requirements associated with NPS
concessions are currently approved under four OMB control numbers.
During our review for this renewal, we discovered some additional
requirements that need OMB approval. In this revision of 1024-0029, we
are including all of the information collection requirements associated
with applying for and operating NPS concessions. If OMB approves this
revision, we will discontinue OMB Control Numbers 1024-0125, 1024-0126,
and 1024-0231. Following are the information collection requirements
associated with soliciting, awarding, and administering NPS
concessions:
(1) Proposals (partially approved under OMB Control Number 1024-
0125). The public solicitation process begins with the issuance of a
prospectus to invite the general public to submit proposals for the
contract. The prospectus describes the terms and conditions of the
concession contract to be awarded, the procedures to be followed in the
selection of the best proposal, and the information that must be
provided. Information that we collect includes, but is not limited to:
Description of how respondent will conduct operations to
minimize disturbance to wildlife; protect park resources; and provide
visitors with a high quality, safe, and enjoyable visitor experience.
Organizational structure and history and experience with
similar operations.
Details on violations or infractions and how they were
handled.
Financial information and demonstration that respondent
has credible, proven track record of meeting obligations.
[[Page 14823]]
We collect this information in narrative and form format. While the
information we collect is currently approved under OMB Control No.
1024-0125, OMB has not approved the following forms:
Business Organization and Credit Information (Form 1 or
2).
Business History Information Form.
Investment Expenses.
Investment Assumptions.
Initial Investments and Start-up Expenses Form.
Initial Investments and Start-up Expenses Assumptions.
Income Statement Form.
Income Statement Assumptions.
Operating Assumptions.
Cash Flow Statement Form.
Cash Flow Statement Assumptions.
(2) Amendments. Amendments to proposals may be submitted in
accordance with 36 CFR 51.15 and 51.32.
(3) Appeals (currently approved under OMB Control Number 1024-
0231). Regulations at 36 CFR 51.47 state that any person may appeal to
the Director, NPS a determination that a concessioner is not a
preferred offeror for the purposes of a right of preference in renewal
and that the appeal must specify the grounds for the appeal.
(4) Request to Construct a Capital Improvement (currently approved
under OMB Control Number 1024-0231). In accordance with 36 CFR 51.54, a
request for approval to construct a capital improvement must include
appropriate plans and specifications for the capital improvement. The
request must also include an estimate of the total construction cost of
the capital improvement. The estimate of the total construction cost
must specify all elements of the cost in such detail as is necessary to
permit the Director, NPS to determine that they are elements of
construction cost. The approval requirements of this and other sections
of 36 CFR part 51 also apply to any change orders to a capital
improvement project and to any additions to a structure or replacement
of fixtures.
(5) Construction Report (currently approved under OMB Control
Number 1024-0231). In accordance with 36 CFR 51.55, a concessioner
obtaining a leasehold surrender interest must submit a construction
report to the NPS. The construction report must be supported by actual
invoices of the capital improvement's construction cost together with,
if requested by the NPS, a written certification from a certified
public accountant (CPA).
(6) Application to Sell or Transfer Concession Operation (currently
approved under OMB Control Number 1024-0126). 36 CFR part 51, Subpart
J, provides that a concessioner must obtain NPS approval to assign,
sell, convey, grant, contract for, or otherwise transfer: any
concession contract; any rights to operate under or manage the
performance of a concession contract as a subconcessioner or otherwise;
any controlling interest in a concessioner or concession contract; or
any leasehold surrender interest or possessory interest obtained under
a concession contract. The amount and type of information to be
submitted varies with the type and complexity of the proposed
transaction. Information includes, but is not limited to:
Instruments proposed to implement the transaction.
Opinion of counsel that the proposed transaction is lawful
under all applicable Federal and State laws.
Narrative description of the proposed transaction.
Statement as to the existence and nature of any litigation
relating to the proposed transaction.
Description of the management qualifications, financial
background, and financing and operational plans of any proposed
transferee.
Description of all financial aspects of the proposed
transaction.
Prospective financial statements (proformas).
Schedule that allocates in detail the purchase price (or,
in the case of a transaction other than an asset purchase, the
valuation) of all assets assigned or encumbered. In addition, the
applicant must provide a description of the basis for all allocations
and ownership of all assets.
(7) Annual Financial Statements (currently approved under OMB
Control No. 1024-0029). We use Forms 10-356 and 10-356A to collect
annual financial reports. These forms are an accumulation of various
financial statements commonly used by industry for reporting in
conformance with generally accepted accounting principles. The
information provides a comprehensive view of the concessioner's
financial situation at the end of its fiscal year and the
concessioner's activity over the preceding year.
(8) Recordkeeping. In accordance with 36 CFR 51.98, a concessioner
(and any subconcessioner) must keep and make available to NPS, records
for the term of the concession contract and for 5 years after the
termination or expiration of the concession contract.
