ACTION: Notice and request for
comments.
AGENCY:
EIA invites public comment
on the proposed collection of
information, EIA–914, Monthly Crude
Oil and Lease Condensate, and Natural
Gas Production Report, as required
under the Paperwork Reduction Act of
1995. EIA is requesting a three-year
extension with changes of Form EIA–
914 Monthly Crude Oil and Lease
Condensate, and Natural Gas
Production Report. The survey collects
monthly data on production and sales of
natural gas, and crude oil and lease
condensate. The data provide useful
information on the nation’s production
and sales of crude oil and natural gas.
DATES: EIA must receive all comments
on this proposed information collection
no later than July 31, 2023. If you
anticipate any difficulty in submitting
comments within that period, contact
the person listed in the FOR FURTHER
INFORMATION CONTACT section of this
notice as soon as possible.
ADDRESSES: Submit comments
electronically to Petroleum and Other
Liquids Data at eiainfopetroleum@
eia.gov with 60-day Federal Register
Notice: Form EIA–914 in the subject
line, or mail comments to: Katie Lewis,
U.S. Energy Information
Administration, EI–23, 1000

Title: Monthly Crude Oil and Lease
Condensate, and Natural Gas Production
Report;
(3) Type of Request: Thee-year
extension with changes; revision of the
currently approved Form EIA–914.
(4) Purpose: Form EIA–914 Monthly
Crude Oil and Lease Condensate, and
Natural Gas Production Report collects
monthly data on natural gas production,
and crude oil and lease condensate
production, and crude oil and lease
condensate sales by API gravity category
in 22 state/areas (Alabama, Arkansas,
California (including State Offshore),
Colorado, Federal Offshore Gulf of
Mexico, Federal Offshore Pacific,
Kansas, Louisiana (including State
Offshore), Michigan, Mississippi
(including State Offshore), Montana,
New Mexico, North Dakota, Ohio,
Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Texas
(including State Offshore), Utah,
Virginia, West Virginia, Wyoming, and
Other States (defined as all remaining
states, except Alaska)). The data appear
in the Monthly Crude Oil and Lease
Condensate, and Natural Gas
Production Report on EIA’s website and
in the EIA publications; Monthly Energy
Review, Petroleum Supply Annual
volumes, Petroleum Supply Monthly,
Natural Gas Annual, and Natural Gas
Monthly.
(4a) Changes to Information
Collection: EIA proposes to make the
following changes to Form EIA–914,
Monthly Crude Oil and Lease
Condensate, and Natural Gas Production
Report:
• Section 4 of Form EIA–914, Crude
Oil and Lease Condensate Run Ticket
Volumes (Sales) by API Gravity, which
collected density data for crude oil and
lease condensate production for selected
States would be discontinued and
deleted from Form EIA–914.
(5) Annual Estimated Number of
Respondents: 400.
(6) Annual Estimated Number of
Total Responses: 4,800.
(7) Annual Estimated Number of
Burden Hours: 14,400.
(8) Annual Estimated Reporting and
Recordkeeping Cost Burden: $1,257,984
(14,400 burden hours times $87.36). EIA
estimates that respondents will have no
additional costs associated with the
surveys other than the burden hours and
that the information is maintained
during the normal course of business.
Comments are invited on whether or
not: (a) The proposed collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of agency functions,
including whether the information will
have a practical utility; (b) EIA’s
estimate of the burden of the proposed

collection of information, including the
validity of the methodology and
assumptions used, is accurate; (c) EIA
can improve the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information it will collect;
and (d) EIA can minimize the burden of
the collection of information on
respondents, such as automated
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology.

ACTION: Notice and request for
comments.
AGENCY:
EIA submitted an information
collection request for a three-year
extension of the Coal Markets Reporting
System as required by the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995. The Coal
Markets Reporting System (CMRS)
consists of five surveys including, Form
EIA–3 Quarterly Survey of Non-Electric
Sector Coal Data, Form EIA–7A Annual
Survey of Coal Production and
Preparation, Form EIA–8A Annual
Survey of Coal Stocks and Coal Exports,
Form EIA–6 Emergency Coal Supply
Survey (Standby), and Form EIA–20
Emergency Weekly Coal Monitoring
Survey for Coal Burning Power
Producers (Standby). The CMRS collects
data on U.S. coal production, quality,
consumption, receipts, stocks, and
prices. EIA proposes to make changes to
instructions to Forms EIA–3, EIA–7A,
and EIA–8A and requests an extension
to Forms EIA–6 and EIA–20 with no
changes. The changes to Forms EIA–3,
EIA–7A, and EIA–8A will reduce the
burden of this collection while
maintaining the utility and integrity of
the data.
DATES: Comments on this information
collection must be received no later
than June 30, 2023. Written comments
and recommendations for the proposed
information collection should be sent
within 30 days of publication of this
