SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Title: Treatment of Gain From Disposition of Certain Natural 
Resource Recapture Property.
    OMB Number: 1545-1352.
    Regulation Project Number: TD 8586.
    Abstract: This regulation prescribes rules for determining the tax 
treatment of gain from the disposition of natural resource recapture 
property in accordance with Internal Revenue Code section 1254. Gain is 
treated as ordinary income in an amount equal to the intangible 
drilling and development costs and depletion deductions taken with 
respect to the property. The information that taxpayers are required to 
retain will be used by the IRS to determine whether a taxpayer has 
properly characterized gain on the disposition of section 1254 
property.
    Current Actions: There is no change in the paperwork burden 
previously approved by OMB.
    Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.
    Affected Public: Individuals and business or other for-profit 
organizations.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 400.
    Estimated Time per Respondent: 5 hours.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 2,000.
    The following paragraph applies to all of the collections of 
information covered by this notice:
    An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required 
to respond to, a collection of information unless the collection of 
information displays a valid OMB control number. Books or records 
relating to a collection of information must be retained as long as 
their contents may become material in the administration of any 
internal revenue law. Generally, tax returns and tax return information 
are confidential, as required by 26 U.S.C. 6103.

proper performance of the functions of the agency, including whether 
the information shall have practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the
