In
accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA, 44 U.S.C.
3501 et seq.) and 5 CFR 1320.8(d)(1), all
information collections require approval
under the PRA. We may not conduct or
sponsor and you are not required to
respond to a collection of information
unless it displays a currently valid OMB
control number.
As part of our continuing effort to
reduce paperwork and respondent
burdens, we invite the public and other
Federal agencies 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 especially interested in public
comment addressing the following:
(1) Whether or not the collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
agency, including whether or not the
information will have practical utility.
(2) The accuracy of our estimate of the
burden for this collection of
information, including the validity of
the methodology and assumptions used.
(3) Ways to enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected.
(4) How might the agency minimize
the burden of the collection of
information on those who are to
respond, including through the use of
appropriate automated, electronic,
mechanical, or other technological
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology, e.g., permitting
electronic submission of response.
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 to approve this ICR. Before
including your address, phone number,
email address, or other personal
identifying information in your
comment, you should be aware that
your entire comment—including your
personal identifying information—may
be made publicly available at any time.
While you can ask us in your comment
to withhold your personal identifying
information from public review, we
cannot guarantee that we will be able to
do so.

Abstract: The Organic Act of 1916
(NPS Organic Act) (54 U.S.C. 100101)
authorizes the Secretary of the Interior
to develop regulations for units of the
national park system (System units)
under the Department’s jurisdiction.
The Mining in the Parks Act (54 U.S.C.
100731 et seq.) directs the Secretary of
the Interior to regulate all operations in
System units in connection with the
exercise of mineral rights on patented
and unpatented mining claims.
The regulations codified in 36 CFR
part 9, subparts A and B, ensure that
mining and non-Federal oil and gas
activities in System units are conducted
in a manner consistent with conserving
each System unit for the benefit of
present and future generations. The
information required by subpart A
identifies the claim, claimant, and
operator (the claimant and operator are
often the same) and details how the
operator intends to access and develop
the minerals associated with the claim.
It also identifies the steps the operator
intends to take to minimize any adverse
impacts of the mining operations on
park resource and values. No
information, except claim ownership
information, is submitted unless the
claimant wishes to conduct mining
operations. The information required by
subpart B identifies the owner and
operator (the owner and operator are
often the same) and details how the
operator intends to access and develop
the oil and gas rights. It also identifies
the steps the operator intends to take to
minimize any adverse impacts on park
resources and values. No information is
submitted unless the owner wishes to
conduct oil and gas operations. The
information collected is used to evaluate
proposed operations, ensure that all
necessary mitigation measures are
employed to protect park resources and
values, and ensure compliance with all
applicable laws and regulations.
Title of Collection: Mining and
Mining Claims and Non-Federal Oil and
Gas Rights, 36 CFR part 9, subparts A
and B.
OMB Control Number: 1024–0064.
