Abstract: (a) General Information: The
Secretary of the U.S. Department of the
Interior (‘‘Secretary’’) is responsible for
mineral resource development on
Federal and Indian lands and the Outer
Continental Shelf (OCS). The Secretary
is also responsible for collecting royalty
information from lessees who produce
minerals from Federal and Indian lands
and the OCS. Under various laws, the
Secretary’s responsibility is to (1)
manage mineral resources production
from Federal and Indian lands and the
OCS; (2) collect the royalties and other
mineral revenues due; and (3) distribute
the funds collected.
ONRR uses the information collected
in this ICR to ensure that a lessee
properly pays royalty and other
revenues due on coal, other solid
minerals, and geothermal resources
produced from Federal and Indian
lands. A lessee submits some of the
information collected in this ICR to
claim a coal washing or a transportation
allowance. ONRR shares the data with
the Bureau of Land Management,
Bureau of Indian Affairs, and Tribal and
State governments for their land and
lease management responsibilities. The
requirement to report accurately and
timely is mandatory. Please refer to the
chart for all reporting requirements and
associated burden hours.
(b) Information Collections: This ICR
covers the paperwork requirements
under 30 CFR parts:
• 1202, subpart H, which pertains to
geothermal resources royalties.
• 1206, subparts F, H, and J, which
pertain to product valuation of Federal
coal, geothermal resources, and Indian
coal.
• 1210, subparts E and H, which
pertain to forms and reports for solid
minerals and geothermal resources
leases.
• 1212, subparts E and H, which
pertain to records and file maintenance
for solid minerals and geothermal
resources leases.
• 1217, subparts E, F, and G, which
pertain to audits and inspections of
coal, other solid minerals, and
geothermal resources leases.
• 1218, subparts E and F, which
pertain to the collection of royalties,
rentals, bonuses, and other monies due
for solid minerals and geothermal
resources.
All data reported is subject to
subsequent audit and adjustment. A
lessee uses the following forms for coal

and other solid minerals production,
sales, royalty reporting, and allowances.
• Form ONRR–4292, Coal Washing
Allowance Report: A lessee of any
Federal or Indian lease producing coal
must submit this form to claim a coal
washing allowance.
• Form ONRR–4293, Coal

any Federal or Indian lease producing
coal must submit this form to claim a
coal transportation allowance.
• Form ONRR–4430, Solid Minerals

Federal or Indian lessee must submit
this form to report production, sales,

Sales: A lessee must file this form for all
coal and other solid minerals produced
from Federal and Indian leases and any
remote storage site from which the
lessee sells Federal or Indian coal or

there is a decrease of 1,081 in estimated
annual responses and a decrease of 504
in estimated annual burden hours.

comments from the public and other
Federal agencies on the proposed ICR
that is described below. We are
especially interested in public comment
addressing the following:
(1) Whether or not the collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
agency, including whether or not the
information will have practical utility;
(2) The accuracy of our estimate of the
burden for this collection of
information, including the validity of
the methodology and assumptions used;
(3) Ways to enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected; and
(4) How might the agency minimize
the burden of the collection of
information on those who are to
respond, including through the use of
appropriate automated, electronic,
mechanical, or other technological
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology, e.g., permitting
electronic submission of response.

Abstract: BSEE uses the information
to ensure safe drilling, workover,

completion, and decommissioning
operations and to protect the human,
marine, and coastal environment. BSEE
analyzes and evaluates these
information/requirements to reduce the
likelihood of a similar Deepwater
Horizon event and to reduce the risk of
fatalities, injuries, and spills. BSEE also
utilizes these requirements in the
approval, disapproval, or modification
process for well operations.
Specifically, BSEE uses the
information in Subpart G to ensure:
• certain well designs and operations
have been reviewed by appropriate third
parties/engineers/classification societies
that, after one year, have been approved
by BSEE;
• rig tracking data is available to
locate rigs during major storms;
• casing or equipment repairs are
acceptable and tested;
• up-to-date engineering documents
are available;
• the Blowout Preventer (BOP) and
associated components are fit for service
for its intended use;
• that the BOP will function as
intended;
• that BOP components are properly
maintained and inspected;
• the proper engineering reviews and
approvals for all BOP designs, repairs,
and modifications are met.
Rig Movement Notification Report,
Form BSEE–0144
We use the information to schedule
inspections and verify that the
equipment being used complies with
approved permits. The information on
this form is used by all 3 regions, but
primarily in the Gulf of Mexico (GOM),
to ascertain the precise arrival and
departure of all rigs in OCS waters in
the GOM. The accurate location of these
rigs is necessary to facilitate the
scheduling of inspections by BSEE
personnel.
Items in BOLD are new changes to the
form this renewal cycle. Information on
form BSEE–0144:
• General Information—Identifies the
date, lease operator, rig name/type/
representative, and rig telephone
number (on location).
• Rig Arrival Information—Identifies
the rig arrival date; what type of work
will be scheduled; if the rig is new to
OCS and location rig came from;
relevant well information; duration of
operations, well surface location
information, structure location
information, helideck information, and
optional information.
• Rig Departure Information—
Identifies the rig departure date, well
status, relevant well information, being
