SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: 30 CFR 250, Subpart C,
Pollution Prevention and Control.
OMB Control Number: 1014–0023.
Abstract: The Outer Continental Shelf
(OCS) Lands Act, 43 U.S.C. 1334,
authorizes the Secretary of the Interior
asabaliauskas on DSK5VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES
SUMMARY:
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 235001
to prescribe rules and regulations
necessary for the administration of the
leasing provisions of that Act related to
mineral resources on the OCS. Such
rules and regulations will apply to all
operations conducted under a lease,
right-of-way, or a right-of-use and
easement.
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 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.’’
In addition to the general rulemaking
authority of the OCSLA at 43 U.S.C.
1334, section 301(a) of the Federal Oil
and Gas Royalty Management Act
(FOGRMA), 30 U.S.C. 1751(a), grants
authority to the Secretary to prescribe
such rules and regulations as are
reasonably necessary to carry out
FOGRMA’s provisions. While the
majority of FOGRMA is directed to
royalty collection and enforcement,
some provisions apply to offshore
operations. For example, section 108 of
FOGRMA, 30 U.S.C. 1718, grants the
Secretary broad authority to inspect
lease sites for the purpose of
determining whether there is
compliance with the mineral leasing
laws. Section 109(c)(2) and (d)(1), 30
U.S.C. 1719(c)(2) and (d)(1), impose
substantial civil penalties for failure to
permit lawful inspections and for
knowing or willful preparation or
submission of false, inaccurate, or
misleading reports, records, or other
information. Because the Secretary has
delegated some of the authority under
FOGRMA to BSEE, 30 U.S.C. 1751 is
included as additional authority for
these requirements.
Regulations implementing these
responsibilities are among those
PO 00000
Frm 00137
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
delegated to BSEE. The regulations
under 30 CFR 250, Subpart C, pertain to
pollution prevention and control on the
OCS and any related Notices to Lessees
(NTLs) and Operators. BSEE has issued
several NTLs to clarify and provide
additional guidance on some aspects of
the current Subpart C regulations.
We use the information collected
under subpart C to ensure that:
• The lessee or operator records the
location of items lost overboard to aid
in recovery during site clearance
activities on the lease;
• operations are conducted according
to all applicable regulations,
requirements, and in a safe and
workmanlike manner;
• discharge or disposal of drill
cuttings, sand, and other well solids,
including those containing naturally
occurring radioactive materials (NORM),
are properly handled for the protection
of OCS workers and the environment;
and
• facilities are inspected daily for the
prevention of pollution, and problems
observed are corrected.
No questions of a sensitive nature are
asked. We protect proprietary
information according to the Freedom of
Information Act (5 U.S.C. 552) and
DOI’s implementing regulations (43 CFR
2); and 30 CFR 250.197, Data and
information to be made available to the
public or for limited inspection.
Responses are mandatory or are
required to obtain or retain a benefit.
Frequency: On occasion, annually,
and as a result of situations encountered
depending upon the requirement.
Description of Respondents: Potential
respondents comprise Federal oil, gas,
or sulphur lessees and/or operators.
Estimated Reporting and
Recordkeeping Hour Burden: The
currently approved annual reporting
burden for this collection is 124,665
hours. In this submission, we are
requesting a total of 137,955 burden
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 and took that into
account in estimating the burden.

this ICR.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: 30 CFR part 203, Relief or
Reduction in Royalty Rates.
OMB Control Number: 1014–0005.
Abstract: The Outer Continental Shelf
(OCS) Lands Act, 43 U.S.C. 1337, as
amended by the OCS Deep Water
Royalty Relief Act (DWRRA), Public
Law 104–58 and the Energy Policy Act
of 2005, Public Law 109–058, gives the
Secretary of the Interior (Secretary) the
authority to reduce or eliminate royalty
or any net profit share specified in OCS
oil and gas leases to promote increased
production. The DWRRA also
authorized the Secretary to suspend
royalties when necessary to promote
development or recovery of marginal
resources on producing or nonproducing leases in the Gulf of Mexico
(GOM) west of 87 degrees, 30 minutes
West longitude.
Section 302 of the DWRRA provides
that new production from a lease in
existence on November 28, 1995, in a
water depth of at least 200 meters, and
in the GOM west of 87 degrees, 30
minutes West longitude qualifies for
royalty suspension in certain situations.
To grant a royalty suspension, the
Secretary must determine that the new
production or development would not
be economic in the absence of royalty
relief. The Secretary must then
determine the volume of production on
which no royalty would be due in order
to make the new production from the
lease economically viable. This
determination is done on a case-by-case
basis. Production from leases in the
same water depth and area issued after
November 28, 2000, also can qualify for
royalty suspension in addition to any
that may be included in their lease
terms.
In addition, Federal policy and statute
require us to recover the cost of services
that confer special benefits to
identifiable non-Federal recipients. The
Independent Offices Appropriation Act
(31 U.S.C. 9701), Office of Management
and Budget (OMB) Circular A–25, and
the Omnibus Appropriations Bill (Pub.
L. 104–134, 110 Stat. 1321, April 26,
1996) authorize the Bureau of Safety
and Environmental Enforcement (BSEE)
to collect these fees to reimburse us for
the cost to process applications or
assessments.
Regulations at 30 CFR part 203
implement these statutes and policy and
require respondents to pay a fee to
request royalty relief. The OMB
PO 00000
Frm 00139
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
approved the information collection
burden under this collection 1014–0005.
Section 203.3(a) states that, ‘‘We will
specify the necessary fees for each of the
types of royalty-relief applications and
possible BSEE audits in a Notice to
Lessees. We will periodically update the
fees to reflect changes in costs, as well
as provide other information necessary
to administer royalty relief.’’
This authority and responsibility are
among those delegated BSEE. The
regulations at 30 CFR part 203, are the
subject of this collection. This request
also covers the related Notices to
Lessees and Operators (NTLs) that BSEE
issues to clarify, supplement, or provide
additional guidance on some aspects
We use the information to make
decisions on the economic viability of
leases requesting a suspension or
elimination of royalty or net profit
share. These decisions have enormous
monetary impact on both the lessee and
the Federal Government. Royalty relief
can lead to increased production of
natural gas and oil, creating profits for
lessees, and royalty and tax revenues for
the Federal Government that they might
not otherwise receive. We could not
make an informed decision without the
collection of information required by 30
CFR part 203.
No questions of a sensitive nature are
asked. BSEE will protect information
from respondents considered
proprietary under the Freedom of
Information Act (5 U.S.C. 552) and
DOI’s implementing regulations (43 CFR
2) and under regulations at 30 CFR
203.61, How do I assess my chances for
getting relief? and 30 CFR 250.197, Data

of situations encountered depending
upon the requirements.
Description of Respondents: Potential
respondents comprise Federal oil, gas,
or sulphur lessees and/or operators.
Estimated Reporting and
Recordkeeping Hour Burden: The
currently approved annual reporting
burden for this collection is 23,329
hours and $117,441 non-hour cost
burdens. In this submission, we are
requesting a total of 724 burden hours
and $27,950 non-hour cost burdens. The

OMB Control Number: 1014-0023.
Abstract: The Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) Lands Act, 43 U.S.C.
1334, authorizes the Secretary of the Interior to prescribe rules and
regulations necessary for the administration of the leasing provisions
of that Act related to mineral resources on the OCS. Such rules and
regulations will apply to all operations conducted under a lease,

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

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.''
In addition to the general rulemaking authority of the OCSLA at 43
U.S.C. 1334, section 301(a) of the Federal Oil and Gas Royalty
Management Act (FOGRMA), 30 U.S.C. 1751(a), grants authority to the
Secretary to prescribe such rules and regulations as are reasonably
necessary to carry out FOGRMA's provisions. While the majority of
FOGRMA is directed to royalty collection and enforcement, some
provisions apply to offshore operations. For example, section 108 of
FOGRMA, 30 U.S.C. 1718, grants the Secretary broad authority to inspect
lease sites for the purpose of determining whether there is compliance
with the mineral leasing laws. Section 109(c)(2) and (d)(1), 30 U.S.C.
1719(c)(2) and (d)(1), impose substantial civil penalties for failure
to permit lawful inspections and for knowing or willful preparation or
submission of false, inaccurate, or misleading reports, records, or
other information. Because the Secretary has delegated some of the
authority under FOGRMA to BSEE, 30 U.S.C. 1751 is included as
additional authority for these requirements.
Regulations implementing these responsibilities are among those
delegated to BSEE. The regulations under 30 CFR 250, Subpart C, pertain
to pollution prevention and control on the OCS and any related Notices
to Lessees (NTLs) and Operators. BSEE has issued several NTLs to
clarify and provide additional guidance on some aspects of the current
Subpart C regulations.
We use the information collected under subpart C to ensure that:
The lessee or operator records the location of items lost
overboard to aid in recovery during site clearance activities on the
lease;
operations are conducted according to all applicable
regulations, requirements, and in a safe and workmanlike manner;
discharge or disposal of drill cuttings, sand, and other
well solids, including those containing naturally occurring radioactive
materials (NORM), are properly handled for the protection of OCS
workers and the environment; and
facilities are inspected daily for the prevention of
pollution, and problems observed are corrected.
No questions of a sensitive nature are asked. We protect
proprietary information according to the Freedom of Information Act (5

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
collection is necessary or useful; (b) evaluate the accuracy 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
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 other than hour burden 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. For further
information on this burden, refer to 5 CFR 1320.3(b)(1) and (2), or
contact the Bureau representative listed previously in this notice.
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
[[Page 29740]]
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.
