Abstract: The information collection
request concerns the paperwork
requirements in the regulations under
30 CFR part 550, part 556, and part 560,
Leasing of Sulfur or Oil and Gas in the
Outer Continental Shelf.
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
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; balance orderly energy resource
development with protection of human,
marine, and coastal environments;
ensure the public a fair and equitable
return on the resources of the OCS; and
preserve and maintain free enterprise
competition. Also, the Energy Policy
and Conservation Act of 1975 (EPCA)
prohibits certain lease bidding
arrangements (42 U.S.C. 6213(c)).
The Independent Offices
Appropriations Act (31 U.S.C. 9701), the
Omnibus Appropriations Act (Pub. L.
104–133, 110 Stat. 1321, April 26,
1996), and Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) Circular A–25, authorize
Federal agencies to recover the full cost
of services that provide special benefits.
Under the Department of the Interior’s
(DOI) implementing policy, BOEM 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. Approval
of transfer of a lease or interest are
subject to cost recovery, and BOEM
regulations specify the filing fee for
these transfer applications.
This notice concerns the reporting
and recordkeeping requirements of
BOEM regulations at 30 CFR part 550,
subpart J, Pipelines and Pipeline Rightsof-Way; 30 CFR part 556, Leasing of
Sulphur or Oil and Gas in the OCS; 30
CFR part 560, OCS Oil and Gas Leasing;
as well as the related Notices to Lessees
and Operators (NTLs) that clarify and
provide additional guidance on some
aspects of these regulations. This ICR
also concerns the use of forms to
PO 00000
Frm 00089
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
process bonds, transfer interest in
leases, and file relinquishments.
BOEM protects proprietary
information in accordance with the
Freedom of Information Act (5 U.S.C.
552) and the Department of the
Interior’s implementing regulations (43
CFR part 2), and under regulations at 30
CFR 580.70 and applicable sections of
30 CFR parts 550 and 552 promulgated
pursuant to Outer Continental Shelf
Lands Act (OCSLA) at 43 U.S.C. 1352(c).
Title of Collection: Leasing of Sulfur
or Oil and Gas in the Outer Continental
Shelf (30 CFR part 550, part 556, and
part 560).
OMB Control Number: 1010–0006.
Form Number:
• BOEM–0150, Assignment of Record
Title Interest in Federal OCS Oil and
Gas Lease,
• BOEM–0151, Assignment of
Operating Rights Interest in Federal
OCS Oil and Gas Lease,
• BOEM–0152, Relinquishment of
Federal OCS Oil and Gas Lease,
• BOEM–2028, Outer Continental
Shelf (OCS) Mineral Lessee’s or
Operator’s Bond,
• BOEM–2028A, Outer Continental
Shelf (OCS) Mineral Lessee’s or
Operator’s Supplemental Bond, and
• BOEM–2030, Outer Continental
Shelf (OCS) Pipeline Right-of-Way Grant
Bond.
Type of Review: Renewal of a
currently approved collection.
Respondents/Affected Public: Federal
oil, gas, or sulphur lessees and/or
operators.
Total Estimated Number of Annual
Responses: 10,307 responses.
Total Estimated Number of Annual
Burden Hours: 19,054 hours.
Respondent’s Obligation: Mandatory
or Required to Obtain or Retain a
Benefit.
Frequency of Collection: On occasion
or annual.
Total Estimated Annual Non-hour
Burden Cost: $766,053.
Estimated Reporting and
Recordkeeping Hour Burden: We expect
the burden estimate for the renewal will
be 19,054 hours, which reflects a
decrease of 400 hour burdens. A
reduction of 80 hours is related to
respondents’ submission of designation
of operator form (Form BOEM–1123);
this burden is now captured in OMB
control number 1010–0114. And the
remaining reduction of 320 hours is for
activities within 30 CFR part 556,
subpart B that are not considered
information collection activities under 5
CFR 1320.3(h)(4), but were previously
counted as information collection
activities.

Agency Information Collection Activities; 30 CFR Parts 550, 556,
560, Leasing of Sulfur or Oil and Gas in the Outer Continental Shelf
AGENCY: Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, Interior.
ACTION: Notice of information collection; request for comment.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, the
Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) is proposing to renew an
information collection request.
[[Page 12278]]
DATES: Interested persons are invited to submit comments on or before
May 31, 2019.
ADDRESSES: Send your comments on this information collection request
(ICR) by mail to the BOEM Information Collection Clearance Officer,
Anna Atkinson, Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, 45600 Woodland Road,
Sterling, Virginia 20166; or by email to [email protected]. Please
reference OMB Control Number 1010-0006 in the subject line of your
comments.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: To request additional information
about this ICR, contact Anna Atkinson by email, or by telephone at 703-
787-1025.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction
Act of 1995, we provide the general public and other Federal agencies
with an opportunity to comment on new, proposed, revised, and
continuing collections of information. This helps us assess the impact
of our information collection requirements and minimize the public's
reporting burden. It also helps the public understand our information
collection requirements and provide the requested data in the desired
format.
We are soliciting comments on the proposed ICR that is described
below. We are especially interested in public comment addressing the
following issues: (1) Is the collection necessary to the proper
functions of BOEM; (2) Will this information be processed and used in a
timely manner; (3) Is the estimate of burden accurate; (4) How might
BOEM enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be
collected; and (5) How might BOEM minimize the burden of this
collection on the respondents, including minimizing the burden through
the use of information technology?
Comments that you submit in response to this notice are a matter of
public record. We will include or summarize each comment in our request
to OMB for approval of this ICR. Before including your address, phone
number, email address, or other personally identifiable information in
your comment, you should be aware that your entire comment--including
your personally identifiable information--may be made publicly
available at any time. In order for BOEM to withhold from disclosure
your personally identifiable information, you must identify any
information contained in the submittal of your comments that, if
released, would constitute a clearly unwarranted invasion of your
personal privacy. You must also briefly describe any possible harmful
consequences of the disclosure of information, such as embarrassment,
injury, or other harm. While you can ask us in your comment to withhold
your personally identifiable information from public review, we cannot
guarantee that we will be able to do so.
Abstract: The information collection request concerns the paperwork
requirements in the regulations under 30 CFR part 550, part 556, and
part 560, Leasing of Sulfur or Oil and Gas in the Outer Continental
Shelf.
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 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; balance orderly energy resource development with
protection of human, marine, and coastal environments; ensure the
public a fair and equitable return on the resources of the OCS; and
preserve and maintain free enterprise competition. Also, the Energy
Policy and Conservation Act of 1975 (EPCA) prohibits certain lease
bidding arrangements (42 U.S.C. 6213(c)).
The Independent Offices Appropriations Act (31 U.S.C. 9701), the
Omnibus Appropriations Act (Pub. L. 104-133, 110 Stat. 1321, April 26,
1996), and Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Circular A-25,
authorize Federal agencies to recover the full cost of services that
provide special benefits. Under the Department of the Interior's (DOI)
implementing policy, BOEM 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. Approval of transfer of a lease or interest are subject to
cost recovery, and BOEM regulations specify the filing fee for these
transfer applications.
This notice concerns the reporting and recordkeeping requirements
of BOEM regulations at 30 CFR part 550, subpart J, Pipelines and
Pipeline Rights-of-Way; 30 CFR part 556, Leasing of Sulphur or Oil and
Gas in the OCS; 30 CFR part 560, OCS Oil and Gas Leasing; as well as
the related Notices to Lessees and Operators (NTLs) that clarify and
provide additional guidance on some aspects of these regulations. This
ICR also concerns the use of forms to process bonds, transfer interest
in leases, and file relinquishments.
BOEM protects proprietary information in accordance with the
Freedom of Information Act (5 U.S.C. 552) and the Department of the
Interior's implementing regulations (43 CFR part 2), and under
regulations at 30 CFR 580.70 and applicable sections of 30 CFR parts
550 and 552 promulgated pursuant to Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act
(OCSLA) at 43 U.S.C. 1352(c).
Title of Collection: Leasing of Sulfur or Oil and Gas in the Outer
Continental Shelf (30 CFR part 550, part 556, and part 560).
OMB Control Number: 1010-0006.
Form Number:
BOEM-0150, Assignment of Record Title Interest in Federal
OCS Oil and Gas Lease,
BOEM-0151, Assignment of Operating Rights Interest in
Federal OCS Oil and Gas Lease,
BOEM-0152, Relinquishment of Federal OCS Oil and Gas
Lease,
BOEM-2028, Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) Mineral Lessee's
or Operator's Bond,
BOEM-2028A, Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) Mineral Lessee's
or Operator's Supplemental Bond, and
BOEM-2030, Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) Pipeline Right-
of-Way Grant Bond.
Type of Review: Renewal of a currently approved collection.
Respondents/Affected Public: Federal oil, gas, or sulphur lessees
and/or operators.
Total Estimated Number of Annual Responses: 10,307 responses.
Total Estimated Number of Annual Burden Hours: 19,054 hours.
Respondent's Obligation: Mandatory or Required to Obtain or Retain
a Benefit.
Frequency of Collection: On occasion or annual.
Total Estimated Annual Non-hour Burden Cost: $766,053.
Estimated Reporting and Recordkeeping Hour Burden: We expect the
burden estimate for the renewal will be 19,054 hours, which reflects a
decrease of 400 hour burdens. A reduction of 80 hours is related to
respondents' submission of designation of operator form (Form BOEM-
1123); this burden is now captured in OMB control number 1010-0114. And
the remaining reduction of 320 hours is for activities within 30 CFR
part 556, subpart B that are not considered information collection
activities under 5 CFR 1320.3(h)(4), but were previously counted as
information collection activities.
