Office of Natural Resources Revenue 2010 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

To comply with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA), we are notifying the public that we have submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) an information collection request (ICR) to renew approval of the paperwork requirements in this ICR titled ``30 CFR Parts 1202, 1206, 1210, 1212, 1217, and 1218, Solid Minerals and Geothermal Resources.'' This notice also provides the public a second opportunity to comment on the paperwork burden of these regulatory requirements.

On May 19, 2010, the Secretary of the Interior separated the responsibilities previously performed by the former Minerals Management Service (MMS) and reassigned those responsibilities to three separate organizations. As part of this reorganization, the Secretary renamed MMS's Minerals Revenue Management Program (MRM) the Office of Natural Resources Revenue (ONRR) and directed that ONRR transition to the Office of the Assistant SecretaryPolicy, Management and Budget (PMB). This change requires reorganization of title 30 of the Code of Federal Regulations (30 CFR). This direct final rule amends chapter II in 30 CFR, establishes a new chapter XII in 30 CFR, removes certain regulations from chapter II, and recodifies them in the new chapter XII.
