provide the general public and other
Federal agencies with an opportunity to
comment on new, proposed, revised,

reporting burden. It also helps the

A Federal Register notice with a 60day public comment period soliciting

As part of our continuing effort to
reduce paperwork and respondent
burdens, we are again soliciting
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.
(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.
Comments that you submit in
response to this notice are a matter of
public record. Before including your
address, phone number, email address,
or other personal identifying
information in your comment, you
should be aware that your entire
comment—including your personal

you can ask us in your comment to
withhold your personal identifying
information from public review, we
cannot guarantee that we will be able to
do so.
Abstract: There are private businesses
in more than 100 national parks under
contract to the NPS that manage food,
lodging, tours, whitewater rafting,
boating, and many other recreational
activities and amenities. These services
gross more than $1 billion every year
and provide jobs for more than 25,000
people during peak seasons.
The regulations codified in 36 CFR
part 51 primarily implement title IV of
the National Parks Omnibus
Management Act of 1998 (54 U.S.C.
101911 et seq. also referred to as Pub.
L. 105–391), which provides legislative
authority, policies, and requirements for
the solicitation, award, and
administration of NPS concession
contracts. Furthermore, 54 U.S.C.
101911 et seq. provides that all
proposed concession contracts shall be
awarded by the Secretary to the person,
corporation or other entity submitting
the best proposal, as determined by the
Secretary through a competitive
selection process. Such competitive
process shall include simplified
procedures for small, individually
owned, concessions contracts. We use
the information collected to objectively
evaluate offers to assure that the park
resources will be adequately protected
and determine which offeror will
provide the best service to visitors. For
the purpose of this submission, we are
requesting an extension of the currently
approved information collections
associated with the administration of
NPS concessions contracts.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In
accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995, BOEM provides
the general public and other Federal
agencies with an opportunity to
comment on new, proposed, revised,
and continuing collections of
information. This helps BOEM assess
the impact of its information collection

reporting burden. It also helps the
public understand BOEM’s information
collection requirements and provide the
requested data in the desired format.
Title of Collection: ‘‘30 CFR part 582,
Operations in the Outer Continental
Shelf for Minerals Other than Oil, Gas,
and Sulfur.’’
Abstract: The Outer Continental Shelf
(OCS) Lands Act (43 U.S.C. 1334 and
1337(k)(1)) authorizes the Secretary of
the Interior to issue leases on available
areas of the U.S. OCS to the highest
qualified bidder to develop any mineral
resources other than oil, gas, and sulfur.
The Secretary may prescribe the royalty,
rental, and other terms and conditions
at the time the lease is offered. The act
also authorizes the Secretary to issue
regulations governing such leasing.
The Secretary delegated authority to
implement these provisions governing
leasing and development of minerals
other than oil, gas, and sulfur to BOEM.
The Department’s regulations at 30 CFR
part 582 implement the statutory
requirements governing such OCS
leasing and development.
Competitive leasing has not occurred
for OCS minerals other than oil, gas, and
sulfur in many years. Accordingly,
BOEM has not generally collected
information under the part 582
regulations. However, given the
regulatory requirements and heightened
interest in critical minerals, the
potential exists that BOEM may require
information under this part. Therefore,
BOEM seeks OMB renewal of this
information collection.
