The Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA) has determined that the National Park Service (NPS) Operators Handbook for Nonfederal Oil and Gas Development ("Handbook") is part of the collection of information because it contains guidance to respondents on completing the permit application. Any substantive revision to the Handbook must be submitted to OIRA for approval as a change request. A revised draft of the Handbook should include guidance to respondents on the information necessary for the NPS to conduct an environmental review when an exemption from an operations permit is requested.

The Organic Act of 1916 (NPS Organic Act) (54 U.S.C. §100101 et seq.) authorizes the Secretary of the Interior to develop regulations for national park units under the Department’s jurisdiction. The National Park Service (NPS, we) regulations at 36 CFR Part 9, Subpart B, ensure that non-Federal oil and gas activities on units of the National Park System are conducted in a manner consistent with preserving each unit for the benefit of present and future generations. Operators must submit specific information describing their future development plans, including steps to mitigate the impacts, and must not conduct any operations until they have NPS approval. We are modernizing our regulations for non-Federal oil and gas rights exercised in national parks. This rule updates current regulations that are now 36-years-old. The updates provide greater clarity and certainty to industry while our ability to protect park resources and the values for which the parks were set aside, and to protect visitors from potentially adverse impacts associated with non-Federal oil and gas operations located within the National Park System. This rule will bring existing oil and gas operations up to NPS standards to protect water quality and water quantity, air quality, night skies and natural sounds, visitor and employee health and safety, fish, wildlife and habitat and meet spill protection and reclamation standards.
