Abstract: The BLM’s royalty-free
standards contained in 43 CFR parts
3160 and 3170 apply to Federal and
Indian (except Osage Tribe) oil and gas
leases. The information collection
requirements contained in standards are
designed to address circumstances
under which oil or gas produced from
onshore wells may be used royalty-free
in operations. OMB Control Number
1004–0211 is scheduled to expire on
November 30, 2021. This request is for
OMB to renew this OMB Control
Number for an additional three (3)
years.
There are currently no policy
revisions proposed in this request to
OMB. The BLM is requesting, however,
that OMB revise the burden estimates as
a result of a court decision, State of
Wyoming v. DOI, where the
requirements of certain portions of
Subsection 3179 were vacated resulting
in a reduction of 1,025 responses and
3,610 burden hours for this OMB
control number. Currently, there are
1,075 responses and 4,010 annual
burden hours approved under this OMB
Control Number, and the BLM is
requesting that these burden numbers be
revised downward to 50 responses and
400 hours.

to Royalties, and Resource Conservation
(43 CFR parts 3160 and 3170).
OMB Control Number: 1004–0211.

Tribe) oil and gas leases.
