We have identified one non-hour cost
burden associated with the collection of
information for a total of $862,104.
There is a service fee of $2,113 required
to recover the Federal Government’s
processing costs of the APD. We have
not identified any other non-hour cost
burdens associated with this collection
of information.
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.
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 nonhour paperwork cost burdens to
respondents or recordkeepers resulting
from the collection of information.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: 30 CFR 291, Open and
Nondiscriminatory Access to Oil and
Gas Pipelines Under the Outer
Continental Shelf Lands Act.
OMB Control Number: 1014–0012.
Abstract: The Outer Continental Shelf
(OCS) Lands Act (OCSLA) at 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, right-of-way, or a right-ofuse and easement. 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 OCSLA requires open and
nondiscriminatory access to oil and gas
pipelines; as well as provides the
Secretary of the Interior the authority to
issue and enforce rules to assure open
and nondiscriminatory access to
pipelines. These regulations provide a
mechanism for entities who believe they
have been denied open and
nondiscriminatory access to pipelines
on the OCS. The BSEE established a
process, via the subject regulations, to
submit complaints alleging denial of
access or discriminatory access for a
shipper transporting oil or gas
production from Federal leases on the
OCS. The complaint should include
certain minimal data in order for BSEE
to begin an investigation. Upon
completion of an investigation, BSEE
will propose a remedial action.
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,
BSEE is required to charge fees for
services that provide special benefits or
privileges to an identifiable non-Federal
recipient above and beyond those which
accrue to the public at large. Regulations
at §§ 291.106(b) and 291.108 require a
nonrefundable processing fee of $7,500
that a shipper must pay when filing a
complaint to BSEE.
The responses are voluntary and some
are required to obtain or retain a benefit.
No questions of a sensitive nature are
asked. BSEE will protect proprietary
information according to the Freedom of
Information Act (5 U.S.C. 552) and
DOI’s implementing regulations (43 CFR
2); 30 CFR part 250.197, Data and
information to be made available to the
public or for limited inspection; and 30
CFR part 252, OCS Oil and Gas
Information Program.
The BSEE uses the submitted
information to initiate a more detailed
investigation into the specific
circumstances associated with a
complainant’s allegation of denial of
access or discriminatory access to
pipelines on the OCS. The complaint
information will be provided to the
alleged offending party. The BSEE may
request additional information upon
completion of the initial investigation.
Frequency: On occasion.
Description of Respondents: Potential
respondents include Federal OCS oil,
gas, or sulfur lessees and/or operators
and holders of pipeline rights-of-way.
Estimated Reporting and
Recordkeeping Hour Burden: The
currently approved annual reporting
burden for this collection is 51 hours
and $7,500 non-hour costs. The
following chart details the individual
components and estimated hour
burdens. 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.

We have identified one non-hour cost

Abstract: The Outer Continental Shelf

1334 authorizes the Secretary of the

of that Act related to mineral resources

energy resource development with
protection of human, marine, and

public a fair and equitable return on the
resources of the OCS; and to preserve
and maintain free enterprise
competition.
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.

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 non-hour burden costs to
