SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    Title: 30 CFR part 254, Oil-Spill Response Requirements for 
Facilities Located Seaward of the Coast Line.
    OMB Control Number: 1014-0007.
    Abstract: Section 2(b)(3) of E.O. 12777 delegated to the Secretary 
of the Interior (Secretary) those responsibilities under section 
311(j)(1)(C) of the Federal Water Pollution Control Act (FWPCA) 
(October 18, 1991; 56 FR 54757), requiring the Secretary to establish 
procedures, methods, and requirements for equipment to prevent and 
contain discharges of oil and hazardous substances from offshore 
facilities, including associated pipelines. Under section 2(d)(3) of 
E.O. 12777, section 311(j)(5) of FWPCA, and section 4202(b)(4) of OPA, 
the Secretary is required to issue regulations requiring the owners or 
operators of offshore facilities, including associated pipelines, to 
prepare and submit response plans that ensure the availability of 
private spill-response personnel and equipment and to permit the 
operation of offshore facilities, including associated pipelines, 
without approved response plans if certain conditions are met. Under 
section 2(e)(3) of E.O. 12777 and section 311(j)(6)(A) of FWPCA, the 
Secretary must require periodic inspections of containment booms and 
equipment used to remove discharges at offshore facilities, including 
associated pipelines. The Secretary has redelegated these 
responsibilities to the Director, BSEE.
    The FWPCA, as amended by the Oil Pollution Act of 1990 (OPA), 
requires that a spill-response plan be submitted for offshore 
facilities prior to February 18, 1993. The OPA specifies that after 
that date, an offshore facility may not handle, store, or transport oil 
unless a plan has been submitted. Regulations at 30 CFR 254 establish 
requirements for spill-response plans for oil-handling facilities 
seaward of the coast line, including associated pipelines.
    To provide supplementary guidance and procedures, BSEE issues 
Notices to Lessees and Operators (NTLs) on a regional or National 
basis. Regulation 30 CFR 250.103 allows BSEE to issue NTLs to clarify, 
supplement, or provide more detail about certain requirements. 
Additional guidance pertaining to Oil-Spill Response Requirements is 
provided by NTLs when needed.
    Regulations implementing these responsibilities are among those 
delegated to BSEE. The regulations under 30 CFR 254 pertain to 
preparation and submittal of response plans that ensure the 
availability of private-spill response personnel and equipment.
    We use the information collected under 30 CFR 254 to determine 
compliance with OPA by lessees/operators. Specifically, BSEE needs the 
information to:
     Determine that lessees/operators have an adequate plan and 
are sufficiently prepared to implement a quick and effective response 
to a discharge of oil from their facilities or operations.
     Review plans prepared under the regulations of a State and 
submitted to BSEE to satisfy the requirements in 30 CFR 254 to ensure 
that they meet minimum requirements of OPA.
     Verify that personnel involved in oil-spill response are 
properly trained and familiar with the requirements of the spill-
response plans and to lead and witness spill-response exercises.
     Assess the sufficiency and availability of contractor 
equipment and materials.
     Verify that sufficient quantities of equipment are 
available and in working order.
     Oversee spill-response efforts and maintain official 
records of pollution events.
     Assess the efforts of lessees/operators to prevent oil 
spills or prevent substantial threats of such discharges.
    No questions of a sensitive nature are asked. Generally, no 
proprietary information is collected under 30 CFR 254. However, if 
respondents did submit proprietary information, we protect such 
information under 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,'' and 30 CFR 252, ``Outer Continental Shelf 
(OCS) Oil and Gas Information Program.'' Responses are mandatory.
    Frequency: The frequencies of responses are on occasion, monthly, 
annually, and biennially and as a result of situations encountered 
depending upon the requirements.
    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 60,198 hours. 
In this submission, we are requested a total of 74,461 burden hours. 
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.

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 non-hour 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 CFR 1320.3(b)(1) and (2), or 
contact the Bureau representative listed previously in this notice.
    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 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 identifying information--may be made publicly available 
at any time. While 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.
