Underground Railroad Network to
Freedom Application,’’ available on our
website at https://www.nps.gov/subjects/
ugrr/index.htm. Respondents must (1)
verify associations and characteristics
through descriptive texts that are the
result of historical research and (2)
submit supporting documentation; e.g.,
copies of rare documents, photographs,
and maps. The majority of the
information is submitted in electronic
format and used to determine eligibility
to become part of the Network.
Network to Freedom Program Partners
work with the NPS to help validate the
efforts of local and regional
organizations, making it easier for them
to share their expertise and
communicate with us and each other.
Prospective partners must submit a
letter with the following information:
• Name and address of the agency,
company or organization;
• Name, address, and phone, fax, and
email information of principal contact;
• Abstract not to exceed 200 words
describing the partner’s activity or
mission statement; and
• Brief description of the entity’s
association to the Underground
Railroad.
With this submission, we are
requesting one change on page 2 of form
10–946. The change is to clarify the
contact information to distinguish
between the owner/manager and the
person completing the application (if
they are different).

We are reporting 400 fewer burden
hours, due to a decrease in responses.
The burden hour per response remains
the same. Due to staffing shortages and
decreased activity in the program, the
resulting annualized cost for
administering the program are lower
than the last reporting period. When
vacant positions are filled, the number
of responses and costs are expected to
rise to previous levels.
An agency may not conduct or
sponsor and a person is not required to
respond to a collection of information
unless it displays a currently valid OMB
control number.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In

the general public and other Federal

BOEM is again soliciting comments

this information will be processed and
used in a timely manner; (3) is the

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. BOEM will include or
summarize each comment in its request
to the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) for approval of this ICR. You
should be aware that your entire
comment—including your address,

comment to withhold your personally
identifiable information from public

will be able to do so.
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 parts 550 and 552 promulgated
pursuant to the Outer Continental Shelf
Lands Act (OCSLA) at 43 U.S.C. 1352(c).
Abstract: This information collection
request concerns the paperwork
requirements in the regulations in 30
CFR part 553, Oil Spill Financial
Responsibility for Offshore Facilities,
including any supplementary notices to
lessees and operators that provide
clarification, description, or explanation
of these regulations; and forms BOEM–
1016 through 1023, and BOEM–1025.
BOEM uses forms to collect
information to ensure proper and
efficient administration of Oil Spill
Financial Responsibility. BOEM collects
information to:
• Provide a standard method for
establishing eligibility for oil spill
financial responsibility for offshore
facilities;
• Identify and maintain a record of
those offshore facilities that have a
potential oil spill liability;

• Establish and maintain a
continuous record of financial evidence
accepted to assure payment of claims for
oil spill cleanup and damages resulting
from operations conducted on covered
offshore facilities and the transportation
of oil from covered offshore facilities;
• Establish and maintain a
continuous record of responsible
parties, as defined in Title I of the Oil
Pollution Act of 1990, and their agents
or Authorized Representatives for oil
spill financial responsibility for covered
offshore facilities; and
• Establish and maintain a
continuous record of persons to contact
and U.S. Agents for Service of Process
for claims associated with oil spills from
covered offshore facilities.
Title of Collection: 30 CFR 553, Oil
Spill Financial Responsibility for
Offshore Facilities.
OMB Control Number: 1010–0106.

• BOEM–1021, Covered Offshore
Facilities;
• BOEM–1022, Covered Offshore
Facility Changes;

information collection.
Respondents/Affected Public: Holders
of leases, permits, right-of-way grants,
and right-of-use and easement grants in
the OCS and in State coastal waters who
are responsible parties and/or who will

Responses: 1,823 responses.
Total Estimated Number of Annual
Burden Hours: 22,133 hours.
Respondent’s Obligation: Mandatory.
Frequency of Collection: On occasion

Estimated Reporting and
Recordkeeping Hour Burden: The

Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
64561
hours to 22,133 hours to account for a
requirement under 30 CFR 553.62 not
previously counted. BOEM, under 30
CFR 553.62, requires the designated
applicant to notify their guarantors and
responsible parties within 15 calendar
days of receiving a claim for removal
costs and damages. BOEMs plans to add
one annual burden hour under 30 CFR
553.62 to account for the burden. The
burden was not previously counted in
this OMB control number, because it
was thought to overlap with the U.S.
Coast Guard’s requirements.
An agency may not conduct or
sponsor, and a person is not required to
respond to, a collection of information
unless it displays a currently valid OMB
control number.
Authority: The authority for this action is
the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44
U.S.C. 3501 et seq.).
