SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: OMB regulations at 5 CFR part 1320, which

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)]. OSMRE has submitted a 
request to OMB to renew its approval for the collection of information 
found at 30 CFR part 702--Exemption for Coal Extraction Incidental to 
the Extraction of Other Minerals. OSMRE is requesting a 3-year term of 
approval for this collection.

collection of information is 1029-0089 and is displayed at 30 CFR 
702.10.
