SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: OMB regulations at 5 CFR 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)]. OSMRE has submitted a 
request to OMB to renew its approval of the collection of information 
contained in a series of technical evaluation customer surveys. OSMRE 
is requesting a 3-year term of approval for the 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 of information is 1029-0114.
    As required under 5 CFR 1320.8(d), a Federal Register notice 
soliciting comments on this collection of information was published on 
March 7, 2017 (82 FR 12840). No comments were received. This notice 
provides the public with an additional 30 days in which to comment on 
the following information collection activity:
    Title: Technical Evaluation Surveys.
    OMB Control Number: 1029-0114.
    Summary: The series of surveys are needed to ensure that technical 
assistance activities, technology transfer activities and technical 
forums are useful for those who participate or receive the assistance. 
Specifically, representatives from State and Tribal regulatory and 
reclamation authorities are the primary respondents, although 
representatives of industry, environmental or citizen groups, or the 
public, may be recipients of the assistance or may participate in these 
forums. These surveys are the primary means through which OSMRE 
evaluates its performance in meeting the performance goals outlined in 
its annual plans developed pursuant to the Government Performance and 
Results Act.
    Bureau Form Number: None.
    Frequency of Collection: Once.
    Description of Respondents: Individuals who request information or 
assistance, although generally States and Tribal employees.
    Total Annual Responses: 106.
    Total Annual Burden Hours: 9.
    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 burdens on respondents, such as use of automated 
means of collections of the information, to the addresses listed under 
ADDRESSES. Please refer to the appropriate OMB control number 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.

    Authority: The authorities for this action are the Surface 
Mining Control and Reclamation Act of 1977, as amended (30 U.S.C. 
1201 et seq.), and the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 
3501 et seq.).
