** These applications currently do not have a set fee since they are done on a case-by-case basis.
Note: Applications include numerous items such as: transmittal letters, letters of request, modifications to applications, reapplications, etc.
Estimated Reporting and
Recordkeeping Non-Hour Cost Burden:
We have identified several non-hour
cost burdens for this collection. Under
§ 203.3, we charge lessees (respondents)
applying for royalty relief an amount
that covers the cost of processing their
applications and auditing financial data
when necessary to determine the
proposed development’s economic
situation. As discussed in section A.1,
these fees may be revised as necessary
to recover our costs in processing
royalty relief applications.
This submission includes these audits
and their associated fees. Since there
have been no applications approved in
the last 14 years under our formal
programs for deepwater royalty relief or
end of life, so their estimated number of
submittals is one every 10 years; but we
include the audit and their respective
fees due to the potential situation
arising.
We estimate this cost burden to be
approximately $23,450 annually. Refer
to the chart in Section A.12 of this
supporting statement for a breakdown.
Under § 203.81, a report prepared by
an independent certified public
accountant (CPA) must accompany the
application and post-production report
(expansion project, short form, and
preview assessment applications are
excluded). The OCS Lands Act
applications will require this report
only once; the DWRRA applications will
require this report at two stages—with
the application and post-production
development report for successful
applicants. We estimate an average cost
for a report is $45,000 and that one CPA
certification, during the information
collection extension period, will be
necessary if the applications are

approved. This annual cost burden is
$45,000/10 years = $4,500.
Therefore, the total of the two burdens
under Section A.13 (a) and (b) is
estimated at $27,950. We have not
identified any other non-hour cost
burdens associated with this collection
of information.
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
collection is necessary or useful; (b)
evaluate the accuracy 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
technology.
Agencies must also estimate the nonhour paperwork cost burdens to
respondents or recordkeepers resulting
from the collection of information.
Therefore, if you have other than hour
burden 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. For further
information on this burden, refer to 5

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

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: Global Positioning Systems
(GPS) for Mobile Offshore Drilling Units
(MODUs) NTL.
OMB Control Number: 1014–0013.
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
to prescribe rules and regulations
necessary for the administration of the
leasing provisions of that Act related to
mineral resources on the OCS. Such
rules and regulations will apply to all
operations conducted under a lease,
right-of-way, or a right-of-use and
easement. 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; to
preserve and maintain free enterprise
competition; and to ensure that the
extent of oil and natural gas resources
of the OCS is assessed at the earliest
practicable time. Section 43 U.S.C.
1332(6) states that ‘‘operations in the
outer 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.’’
To carry out these responsibilities, the
Bureau of Safety and Environmental
Enforcement (BSEE) issues regulations
to ensure that operations in the OCS
will meet statutory requirements;
provide for safety and protect the
environment; and result in diligent
exploration, development, and
production of OCS leases. In addition,
we also issue Notice to Lessees (NTLs)
that provide clarification, explanation,
and interpretation of our regulations.
These NTLs are used to convey purely
informational material and to cover
situations that might not be adequately
addressed in our regulations.
The subject of this information
collection (IC) request is an NTL, GPS
(Global Positioning System) for MODUs
(Mobile Offshore Drilling Units). This
NTL requires MODUs to be equipped
with multiple tracking/location devices
so that during a storm event (hurricane)
the respondent, as well as BSEE, will
have the capability to monitor their
locations. This NTL also provides BSEE
GPS data access thereby granting BSEE
real-time location information as needed
for the Hurricane Response Team (HRT).
The primary regulation for this IC is
30 CFR 250, Subpart A, approved under
the OMB Control Number 1014–0013.
However, in connection with this
subpart, the burden requirements in the
NTL are in addition to the currently
approved paperwork burdens under
those requirements.
After Hurricane Ike, 2008, due to the
loss of an ENSCO MODU, the National
Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration and US Army Corps of
Engineers conducted numerous sidesonar searches for dangerous submerged
debris in several places in and around
the Gulf of Mexico waters, including off
the Louisiana coast, the Houston Ship
PO 00000
Frm 00143
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
Channel, and the Galveston areas. These
searches continued for numerous days,
with multiple government agencies, and
covered well over 75 square statute
miles. Nothing was found.
On March 6, 2009, the SKS Satilla, a
900-ft Norwegian flagged tank ship
carrying approximately 130K MT of
crude oil, reported listing 8 degrees and
taking on water about 65-miles offshore
of Galveston, TX. It was determined that
the SKS Satilla had hit the sunken
MODU that was submerged
approximately 24 feet below the surface
of the water, that had been missing
since Hurricane Ike. The MODU was
displaced off the coast of Louisiana
during Hurricane Ike and ended up off
the coast of Galveston, roughly 105
miles away.
The information to be collected is
necessary for BSEE to assess the
whereabouts of any MODU becoming
unmoored due to extreme weather
situations; as well as, to follow the path
of that facility to determine if other
facilities/pipelines, etc., were damaged
in any way. The offshore oil and gas
industry will use the information to
determine the safest and quickest way to
either remove the obstacles or to fix and
reuse them.
No questions of a sensitive nature are
asked. We protect proprietary
information according to the Freedom of
Information Act (5 U.S.C. 552) and
DOI’s implementing regulations (43 CFR
2); 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. Responses are
mandatory.
Frequency: On occasion.
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 1 hour and
$102,500 non-hour cost burden. In this
submission, we are requesting the same
hour and non-hour cost burdens. 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.
