OMB Control Number: 1010–0059.
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

Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 158 / Tuesday, August 16, 2011 / Notices
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 OCS Lands Act at 43 U.S.C.
1332(6) states that ‘‘operations in the
[O]uter Continental Shelf should be
conducted in a safe manner by welltrained personnel using technology,
precautions, and techniques sufficient
to prevent or minimize the likelihood of
blowouts, loss of well control, fires,
spillages, physical obstruction to other
users of the waters or subsoil and
seabed, or other occurrences which may
cause damage to the environment or to
property, or endanger life or health.’’
The Independent Offices
Appropriations Act (31 U.S.C. 9701), the
Omnibus Appropriations Bill (Pub. L.
104–133, 110 Stat. 1321, April 26,
1996), and Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) Circular A–25, authorize
Federal agencies to recover the full cost
of services that confer special benefits.
Under the Department of the Interior’s

(DOI) implementing policy, the Bureau
of Ocean Energy Management,
Regulation and Enforcement (BOEMRE)
is required to charge the full cost for
services that provide special benefits or
privileges to an identifiable non-Federal
recipient above and beyond those which
accrue to the public at large. Facility
Production Safety System Applications
are subject to cost recovery, and
BOEMRE regulations specify filing fees
for these applications.
This notice concerns the reporting
and recordkeeping elements of 30 CFR
part 250, subpart H, Oil and Gas
Production Safety Systems, and related
Notices to Lessees and Operators (NTLs)
that clarify and provide additional
guidance on some aspects of the
regulations.
BOEMRE uses the information
submitted under subpart H to evaluate
equipment and/or procedures that
lessees propose to use during
production operations, including
evaluation of requests for departures or
use of alternative procedures.
Information submitted is also used to
verify the no-flow condition of wells to
continue the waiver of requirements to
install valves capable of preventing
backflow. BOEMRE inspectors review
the records maintained to verify
compliance with testing and minimum
safety requirements.
The Gulf of Mexico OCS Region
(GOMR) has a policy regarding approval
of requests to use a chemical-only fire

50749

prevention and control system in lieu of
a water system. BOEMRE may require
additional information be submitted to
maintain approval. The information is
used to determine if the chemical-only
system provides the equivalent
protection of a water system for the
egress of personnel should a fire occur.
We 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: On occasion or annual.
Description of Respondents: Potential
respondents comprise Federal oil, gas,
or sulphur lessees and/or operators.
Estimated Reporting and
Recordkeeping Hour Burden: The
currently approved annual reporting
burden for this collection is 47,021
hours. The following chart details the
individual components and respective
hour burden estimates of this ICR. In
calculating the burdens, we assumed
that respondents perform certain
requirements in the normal course of
their activities. We consider these to be
usual and customary and took that into
account in estimating the burden.

Estimated Reporting and
Recordkeeping Non-Hour Cost Burden:
The currently OMB approved non-hour
cost burdens total $482,309. We have
identified nine non-hour cost burdens
for this collection. These non-hour cost
burdens consist of service fees which
are determined by the number of
components involved in the review and
approval process; along with the cost of
the offshore and/or shipyard visits
under § 250.802(e). We have not
identified any other non-hour cost
burdens.
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 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
the Government; or (iv) as part of
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.
