SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: Locatable Minerals.
OMB Number: 0596–0022.
Expiration Date of Approval: June 30,
2018.
Type of Request: Reapproval of an
information collection request.
Abstract: This information collection
request is necessary to ensure that
potential adverse environmental
impacts associated with locatable
mineral operations on National Forest
System (NFS) lands are minimized to
the extent practicable. Forest Service
regulations at 36 CFR 228.5 require
mining operators, with some exceptions,
to notify the authorized Forest Service
officer of their intent to conduct a
locatable mineral operation on NFS
lands by filing a proposed plan of
operations. All information identified in
36 CFR part 228 must be included in the
proposed plan of operations. Forest
Service form FS–2800–5, Plan of
Operations for Mining Activities on
National Forest System Lands, is
available for use by mining proponents
and operators to simplify this process.
The information required by 36 CFR
228.4(c), (d), and (e) in a proposed plan
of operations includes:
1. The name and legal mailing address
of operators (and claimants if they are
not the same) and their lessees, assigns,
or designees.
2. A map or sketch showing
information sufficient to locate:
a. The proposed area of operations on
the ground.
b. Existing and/or proposed roads or
access routes to be used in connection
with the operation as set forth in 36 CFR
228.12 on access.
c. The approximate location and size
of areas where surface resources will be
disturbed.
3. Information sufficient to describe:
a. The type of operations proposed
and how they would be conducted.
b. The type and standard of existing
and proposed roads or access routes.
c. The means of transportation used or
to be used as set forth in 36 CFR 228.12.
d. The period during which the
proposed activity will take place.

Jkt 259001
e. Measures to be taken to meet the
requirements for environmental
protection in 36 CFR 228.8.
This information collection request is
crucial to protecting surface resources,
including plants, animals, and their
habitat, and addressing public safety on
NFS lands. The authorized Forest
Service officer will use the collected
information to ensure that prospecting
for and exploration, development, and
production of mineral resources are
conducted in an environmentally
sensitive manner; that these mineral
operations are integrated into planning
and management of other resources
using principles of ecosystem
management; and that lands disturbed
by mineral operations are reclaimed
using the best scientific knowledge and
returned to other productive uses. If this
information were not collected, the
Forest Service would not be able to
comply with its regulations, and
locatable mineral operations could
result in undue damage to surface
resources in the NFS.
Estimated Annual Burden per
Respondent: 224 hours.
Type of Respondents: Mining
proponents and operators.
Estimated Annual Number of
Respondents: 198.
Estimated Annual Number of
Responses per Respondent: 1.
Estimated Total Annual Burden on
Respondents: 44,352 hours.
Comment Is Invited
Comment is invited on (1) whether
this information collection request is
necessary for the stated purposes and
the proper performance of the functions
of the Agency, including whether the
information collected will have
practical or scientific utility; (2) the
accuracy of the Agency’s estimate of the
burden of the information collection
request, including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used; (3)
ways to enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and (4) ways to minimize the
burden of the information collection
request on respondents, including the
use of automated, electronic,
mechanical, or other technological
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology.
All comments received in response to
this notice, including names and
addresses when provided, will be a
matter of public record. Comments will
be summarized and included in the
request for Office of Management and
Budget approval.
