SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The following information pertains to this 
request:
    OMB Control Number: 1010-0187.
    Title: Project Planning for the Use of OCS Sand, Gravel, and Shell 
Resources in Construction Projects that Qualify for a Negotiated 
Noncompetitive Agreement.
    Abstract: Under the authority delegated by the Secretary of the 
Interior, BOEM is authorized, pursuant to section 8(k)(2) of the OCS 
Lands Act (43 U.S.C. 1337(k)(2), to convey rights to OCS sand, gravel, 
and shell resources by NNA for use in shore protection and beach and 
coastal restoration, or for use in construction projects funded in 
whole or part by, or authorized by, the Federal Government.

Background

    Since 2014, 13 projects have been processed. In order for BOEM to 
continue to meet the needs of local and state governments, information 
regarding upcoming projects must be acquired to plan for future 
projects and anticipated workload. Therefore, BOEM will issue calls for 
information about needed resources and locations from interested 
parties to develop and maintain a project schedule. It also includes 
the potential for a call in response to an emergency declaration, such 
as a tropical storm. This ICR has no significant changes from the 2014 
OMB approved information collection.
    In the event the number of requested projects exceeds the limits of 
the current BOEM staff and funding resources, BOEM may request the 
relevant states to prioritize their own projects based on several 
criteria including likelihood of project funding and progress of 
environmental work.
    BOEM will use the information to determine appropriate future 
resource allocations, identify potential conflicts of use, develop 
NNAs, and meet all necessary environmental and legal requirements. BOEM 
will publish all ongoing projects on the Web site https://www.boem.gov/MMP-State-and-Regional-Activities/.
    We will protect information from respondents considered proprietary 
under the Freedom of Information Act (5 U.S.C. 552) and the Department 
of the Interior's implementing regulations at 43 CFR part 2. No items 
of a sensitive nature are collected, and responses are required to 
obtain or retain benefits.
    Frequency: Annually and on occasion.
    Description of Respondents: Potential respondents comprise states, 
counties, localities, and tribes.
    Estimated Reporting and Recordkeeping Hour Burden: We estimate that 
the annual reporting burden for this collection is about 200 hours, 
assuming an emergency declaration is made each year.
    Local Government Compilation: 25 local x 1 hour/entity x 2 
responses/year = 50 hours; State Compilation: 15 States x 5 hours/State 
x 2 responses/year = 150 hours (50 county hours + 150 State hours = 200 
total burden hours).
    Estimated Reporting and Recordkeeping Non-Hour Cost Burden: We have 
identified no non-hour paperwork cost burdens for this collection.
    Public Disclosure Statement: The PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501, et seq.) 
provides that an agency may not conduct or sponsor a collection of 
information, unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number.
    Comments: We invite comments concerning this information collection 
on:
     Whether or not the collection of information is necessary, 
including whether or not the information will have practical utility;
     the accuracy of the burden estimates;
     ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the 
information to be collected; and
     ways to minimize the burden on respondents.
    As required at 5 CFR 1320.8(d), BOEM published a 60-day notice in 
the Federal Register on February 27, 2017 (82 FR 11941), and the 
comment period ended April 28, 2017. BOEM received no comments.
    Public Availability of Comments: Our practice is to make comments, 
including names and home addresses of respondents, available for public 
review. Individual respondents may request that we withhold such 
information, which we will honor to the extent allowable by law. If you 
wish us to withhold this information, you must state this prominently 
at the beginning of your comment. However, we will make all submissions 
from organizations or businesses, and from individuals identifying 
themselves as representatives or officials of organizations or 
businesses, available for public inspection in their entirety.
    Authorities: The authorities for this action are the OCS Lands Act, 
as amended (43 U.S.C. 1337(k)(2), and the Paperwork Reduction Act of 
1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et. seq.).
