SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: OMB regulations at 5 CFR part 1320, which 
implement 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)]. OSM has submitted a 
request to OMB to renew its approval for the collection of information 
for 30 CFR part 773--Requirements for Permits and Permit Processing. 
OSM is requesting a 3-year term of approval for this 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, 1029-0115, is listed in 30 CFR 773.3.
    As required under 5 CFR 1320.8(d), a Federal Register notice 
soliciting comments on these collections of information was published 
on December 9, 2015 (80 FR 76571). No comments were received. This 
notice provides the public with an additional 30 days in which to 
comment on the following collection activity:
    Title: 30 CFR part 773--Requirements for Permits and Permit 
Processing.
    OMB Control Number: 1029-0115.
    Summary: The collection activities for this Part ensure that the 
public has the opportunity to review permit applications prior to their 
approval, and that applicants for permanent program permits or their 
associates who are in violation of the Surface Mining Control and 
Reclamation Act do not receive surface coal mining permits pending 
resolution of their violations. This collection request includes the 
submission of processing fees authorized by 30 CFR 736.25 and 750.25 in 
Federal program states and on Indian lands, respectively.
    Bureau Form Number: None.
    Frequency of Collection: Once.
    Description of Respondents: Applicants for surface coal mining and 
reclamation permits and State governments and Indian Tribes.
    Total Annual Respondents: 942 coal mining applicants and 24 
regulatory authorities.
    Total Annual Burden Hours: 39,224.
    Total Annual Non-Wage Cost Burden: $100,500.
    Obligation to Respond: Required in order to obtain or retain 
benefits.
    Send comments on the need for the collection of information for the 
performance of the functions of the agency; the accuracy of the 
agency's burden estimates; ways to enhance the quality, utility and 
clarity of the information collection; and ways to minimize the 
information collection burden on respondents, such as use of automated 
means of collection of the information, to the places listed in 
ADDRESSES. Please refer to control number 1029-0115 in all 
correspondence.
    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.
