Office of Management and Budget for Review and Approval; 30 CFR 550, 
Subpart C, Pollution Prevention and Control

AGENCY: Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, Interior.

ACTION: Notice of information collection; request for comment.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, the 
Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) is proposing to renew an 
information collection with revisions.

DATES: Interested persons are invited to submit comments on or before 
March 1, 2018.

ADDRESSES: Send written comments on this information collection request 
(ICR) to the Office of Management and Budget's Desk Officer for the 
Department of the Interior by email at [email protected]; or 
via facsimile to 202-395-5806. Please provide a copy of your comments 
to the BOEM Information Collection Clearance Officer, Anna Atkinson, 
Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, 45600 Woodland Road, Sterling, 
Virginia 20166; or by email to [email protected]. Please reference 
Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Control Number 1010-0057 in the 
subject line of your comments.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: To request additional information 
about this ICR, contact Anna Atkinson by email, or by telephone at 703-
787-1025. You may also view the ICR at http://www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction 
Act of 1995, we provide the general public and other Federal agencies 
with an opportunity to comment on new, proposed, revised, and 
continuing collections of information. This helps us assess the impact 
of our information collection requirements and minimize the public's 
reporting burden. It also helps the public understand our information 
collection requirements and provide the requested data in the desired 
format.
    A Federal Register notice with a 60-day public comment period 
soliciting comments on this collection of information was published on 
October 25, 2017 (82 FR 49418). No comments were received.
    We are again soliciting comments on the proposed ICR that is 
described below. We are especially interested in public comment 
addressing the following issues: (1) Is the collection necessary to the 
proper functions of BOEM? (2) will this information be processed and 
used in a timely manner? (3) is the estimate of burden accurate? (4) 
how might BOEM enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the 
information to be collected? and (5) how might BOEM minimize the burden 
of this collection on the respondents, including through the use of 
information technology?
    Comments that you submit in response to this notice are a matter of 
public record. 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.
    Abstract: The Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) Lands Act, as amended 
(43 U.S.C. 1331 et seq., and 43 U.S.C. 1801 et seq.), authorizes the 
Secretary of the Interior (Secretary) to prescribe rules and 
regulations to manage the mineral resources of the OCS. Such rules and 
regulations apply to all operations conducted under a lease, right-of-
use and easement, and pipeline right-of-way.
    Section 1334(a)(8) requires that regulations prescribed by the 
Secretary include provisions ``for compliance with the national ambient 
air quality standards pursuant to the Clean Air Act (42 U.S.C. 7401 et 
seq.), to the extent that activities authorized under this subchapter 
significantly affect the air quality of any State.'' This information 
collection renewal concerns information that is submitted in response 
to regulatory requirements, such as the regulations at 30 CFR part 550, 
subpart C, Pollution Prevention and Control that implement section 
1334(a)(8). It also covers the related Notices to Lessees and Operators 
(NTLs) that BOEM issues to clarify and provide additional guidance on 
some aspects of these regulations. BOEM uses the information to inform 
its decisions on plan approval, to ensure operations are conducted 
according to all applicable regulations and plan conditions of 
approval, and to inform State and regional planning organizations 
modeling efforts.
    Title of Collection: 30 CFR 550, subpart C, Pollution Prevention 
and Control.
    OMB Control Number: 1010-0057.
    Form Number: None.
    Type of Review: Revision of a currently approved collection.
    Respondents/Affected Public: Potential respondents comprise Federal 
OCS oil, gas, and sulphur lessees and states.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Responses: 2,394 responses.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Burden Hours: 105,028 hours.
    Respondent's Obligation: Mandatory, and voluntary.
    Frequency of Collection: On occasion, monthly, or annually.
    Total Estimated Annual Nonhour Burden Cost: None.
    Estimated Reporting and Recordkeeping Hour Burden: We expect the 
burden estimate for the renewal will be 105,028 hours, which reflects a 
decrease of 7,083 hours. In calculating the burdens, the burden hours 
decreased from the previous OMB request, because the number of 
facilities decreased as reported by the Gulfwide Offshore Activity Data 
System. We also removed from the burden breakdown table the requirement 
of submitting copy of State-required Emergency Action Plan for the 
Pacific OCS Region. This information is not collected by BOEM, because 
it falls under the jurisdiction of the Bureau of Safety and 
Environmental Enforcement.
    The following table details the individual BOEM components and 
respective hour burden estimates of this ICR. We assumed that the 
respondents perform certain activities in the normal course of their 
business that also satisfy certain requirements under subpart C.

[[Page 4268]]

We consider these to be usual and customary and took that into account 
in estimating the burden.
