This information collection pertains to onshore geophysical exploration on Federal lands. Federal land-management agencies are responsible for regulating geophysical exploration on the Federal surface estate. The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) regulates exploration for oil and gas on lands it manages, and on occasion it regulates such exploration on lands managed by other Federal land-management agencies. The U.S. Forest Service (FS or Forest Service) regulates exploration for various types of minerals, including oil and gas, on lands it manages. This request is for the OMB to renew this OMB control number for an additional three years. It is being submitted to the OMB in association with the BLM’s proposed rule pertaining to fluid mineral leasing requirements (RIN 1004-AE80).
