Abstract: This information collection
request concerns the paperwork
requirements in the regulations in 30
CFR part 551, Geological and
Geophysical (G&G) Explorations of the
Outer Continental Shelf. This request
also covers Form BOEM–0327.
Section 11(g) of the Outer Continental
Shelf Lands Act (OCSLA), as amended
(43 U.S.C. 1340(g)), authorizes the
Secretary of the Interior to prescribe
rules and regulations to govern the
issuance of permits for G&G exploration
on the OCS. The OCSLA at § 11 states
that ‘‘any person authorized by the
Secretary may conduct geological and
geophysical explorations in the [O]uter
Continental Shelf, which do not
interfere with or endanger actual
operations under any lease maintained
or granted pursuant to this subchapter,
and which are not unduly harmful to
aquatic life in such area.’’ The section
further provides that permits to conduct
such activities may be issued only if it
is determined that: The applicant is
qualified; the activities will not interfere
with or endanger operations under any
lease issued or maintained pursuant to
OCSLA; and the activities will not be
unduly harmful to aquatic life, result in
pollution, create hazardous or unsafe
conditions, unreasonably interfere with
other uses of the area, or disturb any
site, structure, or object of historical or
archaeological significance.
Applicants for permits are required to
submit Form BOEM–0327 to provide the
information necessary to evaluate their
qualifications, and upon approval,
respondents are issued a permit. Once
an application is reviewed and
approved, a permit (Form BOEM–0328
or Form BOEM–0329) is signed by
BOEM and the permittee.
The Independent Offices
Appropriations Act of 1950 (31 U.S.C.
9701) and the Omnibus Appropriations
Bill of 1996 (Pub. L. 104–134, 110 Stat.
1321, April 26, 1996), as further
explained in OMB Circular A–25,
authorize Federal agencies to recover
the full cost of services that confer
special benefits. All G&G permits are
subject to cost recovery, and BOEM
regulations specify service fees for these
requests.
Regulations to carry out these
responsibilities are contained in 30 CFR
part 551 and are the subject of this
information collection renewal. BOEM
uses the information to:
• Authorize exploration to identify
oil, gas, sulfur, and mineral resources in
the OCS;
• Ensure the receipt of fair value for
mineral resources;
• Ensure that the exploration
activities do not cause harm to the
