AGENCY: Office of Surface Mining Reclamation and Enforcement, Interior.

ACTION: Notice and request for comments.

SUMMARY: In compliance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, the 
Office of Surface Mining Reclamation and Enforcement (OSM) is 
announcing its intention to seek approval to continue the collection of 
information for the contractor eligibility, and the Abandoned Mine Land 
(AML) Contractor Information form. This information collection activity 
was previously approved by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), 
and assigned clearance number 1029-0119.

DATES: Comments on the proposed information collection must be received 
by October 16, 2015, to be assured of consideration.

ADDRESSES: Comments may be mailed to John A. Trelease, Office of 
Surface Mining Reclamation and Enforcement, 1951 Constitution Ave. NW., 
Room 203--SIB, Washington, DC 20240. Comments may also be submitted 
electronically to [email protected].

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: To receive a copy of the information 
collection request contact John Trelease, at (202) 208-2783 or by email

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: OMB regulations at 5 CFR 1320, which 
implementing provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 
104-13), require that interested members of the public and affected 
agencies have an opportunity to comment on information collection and 
recordkeeping activities [see 5 CFR 1320.8(d)]. This notice identifies 
information collection that OSM will be submitting to OMB for approval. 
This collection is contained in 30 CFR 874.16 and the Abandoned Mine 
Land Contractor Information form. OSM will request a 3-year term of 
approval for each information collection activity. An agency may not 
conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a 
collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB 
control number. The OMB control number for this collection is 1029-
0119. Responses are required to obtain a benefit.
    Comments are invited on: (1) The need for the collection of 
information for the performance of the functions of the agency; (2) the 
accuracy of the agency's burden estimates; (3) ways to enhance the 
quality, utility and clarity of the information collection; and (4) 
ways to minimize the information collection burden on respondents, such 
as use of automated means of collection of the information. A summary 
of the public comments will accompany OSM's submission of the 
information collection request to OMB.
    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.
    Title: 30 CFR 874.16--Contractor eligibility, and the AML 
Contractor Information form.
    OMB Control Number: 1029-0119.
    Summary: 30 CFR 874.16 requires that every successful bidder for an 
AML contract must be eligible under 30 CFR 773.15(b)(1) at the time of 
contract award to receive a permit or conditional permit to conduct 
surface coal mining operations. Further, the regulation requires the 
eligibility to be confirmed by OSMRE's automated AVS and the contractor 
must be eligible under the regulations implementing Section 510(c) of 
the Surface Mining Act to receive permits to conduct mining operations. 
The AML Contractor Information form provides a tool for OSM and the 
States/Indian tribes to help them prevent persons with outstanding 
violations from conducting further mining or AML reclamation activities 
in the State.
    Bureau Form Number: None.
    Frequency of Collection: Once per contract.
    Description of Respondents: AML contract applicants and State and 
tribal AML authorities.
    Total Annual Responses: 247 bidders and 93 State responses.
    Total Annual Burden Hours: 205.

    Dated: August 6, 2015.

Chief, Division of Regulatory Support.
