(L-asp). Included are methods to
decrease cell proliferation, most notably
in order to treat various cancers, by
administrating to a subject a
combination of an ASNS antagonist and
a formulation of L-asp. The main ASNS
antagonist utilized in these methods are
small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) that
reduce ASNS expression. Also included
are methods of screening for the efficacy
of L-asp in a subject by detecting the
expression of the ASNS gene in a
sample. The technology also describes a
kit that probes to detect ASNS gene
expression in a sample to identify the
efficacy of L-asp treatment. ASNS serves
as a key biomarker for acute
lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and other
malignancies because these cancer cells
express little or no ASNS compared to
normal cells. As a result, the cancerous
cells must acquire asparagine from the
bloodstream to survive and proliferate
to form tumors. Over several decades,
patients with ALL and other leukemias
have been treated with L-asparaginase
(L-asp) to break down asparagine in the
body and starve leukemia cells of
asparagine. L-asp treatment is usually
more effective when ASNS expression
in the patient is limited.
The prospective exclusive license will
be royalty bearing and will comply with
the terms and conditions of 35 U.S.C.
209 and 37 CFR part 404.7. The
prospective exclusive license may be
granted unless within sixty (60) days
from the date of this published notice,
the NIH receives written evidence and
argument that establishes that the grant
of the license would not be consistent
with the requirements of 35 U.S.C. 209
and 37 CFR 404.7.
Applications for a license in the field
of use filed in response to this notice
will be treated as objections to the grant
of the contemplated exclusive license.
Comments and objections submitted to
this notice will not be made available
for public inspection and, to the extent
permitted by law, will not be released
under the Freedom of Information Act,

MMS Information Collection Activity:
1010–0051, Oil and Gas Production
Measurement, Extension of a
Collection; Comment Request
AGENCY: Minerals Management Service
(MMS), Interior.
ACTION: Notice of extension of an
information collection (1010–0051).

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(PRA), MMS is inviting comments on a
collection of information that we will
submit to the Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) for review and approval.
The information collection request (ICR)
concerns the paperwork requirements in
the regulations under 30 CFR 250,
Subpart L, Oil and Gas Production
Measurement.
DATES: Submit written comments by
January 4, 2010.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: 30 CFR Part 250, Subpart L, Oil
and Gas Production Measurement.
OMB Control Number: 1010–0051.
Abstract: The Outer Continental Shelf
(OCS) Lands Act, as amended (43 U.S.C.
1331 et seq. and 43 U.S.C. 1801 et seq.),
authorizes the Secretary of the Interior
(Secretary) to prescribe rules and
regulations to administer leasing of the

PO 00000

Frm 00067

Fmt 4703

Sfmt 4703

OCS. Such rules and regulations will
apply to all operations conducted under
a lease. Operations on the OCS must
preserve, protect, and develop oil and
natural gas resources in a manner that
is consistent with the need to make such
resources available to meet the Nation’s
energy needs as rapidly as possible; to
balance orderly energy resource
development with protection of human,
marine, and coastal environments; to
ensure the public a fair and equitable
return on the resources of the OCS; and
to preserve and maintain free enterprise
competition. The Federal Oil and Gas
Royalty Management Act of 1982 (30
U.S.C. 1701, et seq.) at section
1712(b)(2) prescribes that an operator
will ‘‘develop and comply with such
minimum site security measures as the
Secretary deems appropriate, to protect
oil or gas produced or stored on a lease
site or on the Outer Continental Shelf
from theft.’’ Regulations at 30 CFR part
250, subpart L, implement these
statutory requirements. We use the
information to ensure that the volumes
of hydrocarbons produced are measured
accurately, and royalties are paid on the
proper volumes. Specifically, MMS
needs the information to:
• Determine if measurement
equipment is properly installed,
provides accurate measurement of
production on which royalty is due, and
is operating properly;
• Obtain rates of production data in
allocating the volumes of production
measured at royalty sales meters, which
can be examined during field
inspections;
• Ascertain if all removals of oil and
condensate from the lease are reported;
• Determine the amount of oil that
was shipped when measurements are
taken by gauging the tanks rather than
being measured by a meter;
• Ensure that the sales location is
secure and production cannot be
removed without the volumes being
recorded; and
• Review proving reports to verify
that data on run tickets are calculated
and reported accurately.
The MMS will protect information
from respondents considered
proprietary under the Freedom of
Information Act (5 U.S.C. 552) and its
implementing regulations (43 CFR part
2) and under regulations at 30 CFR
250.197, Data and information to be
made available to the public or for
limited inspection and 30 CFR part 252,
OCS Oil and Gas Information Program.
No items of a sensitive nature are
collected. Responses are mandatory.
Frequency: Varies by section, but
primarily monthly, or on occasion.

Public Disclosure Statement: The PRA
(44 U.S.C. 3501, et seq.) provides that an
agency may not conduct or sponsor a
collection of information unless it
displays a currently valid OMB control
number. Until OMB approves a
collection of information, you are not
obligated to respond.
Comments: Before submitting an ICR
to OMB, PRA section 3506(c)(2)(A)
requires each agency ‘‘* * * to provide
notice * * * and otherwise consult
with members of the public and affected
agencies concerning each proposed
collection of information * * * ’’.
Agencies must specifically solicit
comments to: (a) Evaluate whether the
proposed collection of information is
necessary for the agency to perform its
duties, including whether the
information is useful; (b) evaluate the
accuracy of the agency’s estimate of the
burden of the proposed collection of
information; (c) enhance the quality,
usefulness, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and (d)
minimize the burden on the
respondents, including the use of
automated collection techniques or
other forms of information technology.
Agencies must also estimate the nonhour paperwork cost burdens to
respondents or recordkeepers resulting
from the collection of information.
Therefore, if you have costs to generate,
maintain, and disclose this information,
you should comment and provide your
total capital and startup cost
components or annual operation,
maintenance, and purchase of service
components. You should describe the
methods you use to estimate major cost
factors, including system and
technology acquisition, expected useful
life of capital equipment, discount
rate(s), and the period over which you
incur costs. Capital and startup costs
include, among other items, computers
and software you purchase to prepare
for collecting information, monitoring,
and record storage facilities. You should
not include estimates for equipment or
services purchased: (i) Before October 1,
1995; (ii) to comply with requirements
not associated with the information
collection; (iii) for reasons other than to
provide information or keep records for

customary and usual business or private
practices.
We will summarize written responses
to this notice and address them in our
submission for OMB approval. As a
result of your comments, we will make
any necessary adjustments to the burden
in our submission to OMB.
Public Comment Procedures: Before
including your address, phone number,
