Background
The Department of Homeland
Security (DHS), through the United
States Coast Guard and the
Transportation Security Administration
(TSA), issued a joint final rule (72 FR
3492; January 25, 2007) pursuant to the
Maritime Transportation Security Act
(MTSA), Public Law 107–295, 116 Stat.
2064 (November 25, 2002), and the
Security and Accountability for Every
Port Act of 2006 (SAFE Port Act), Public
Law 109–347 (October 13, 2006). This
rule requires all credentialed merchant
mariners and individuals with
unescorted access to secure areas of a
regulated facility or vessel to obtain a
TWIC. In this final rule, on page 3510,
TSA and Coast Guard stated that a
phased enrollment approach based
upon risk assessment and cost/benefit
would be used to implement the
program nationwide, and that TSA
would publish a notice in the Federal
Register indicating when enrollment at
a specific location will begin and when
it is expected to terminate.
This notice provides the start date for
TWIC initial enrollment at the Ports of
Hilo, HI; International Falls, MN;
Ontonagon, MI; Morehead City, NC;
Huntington, WV; and Port Canaveral,
FL. Enrollment will begin in Hilo on
January 3, 2008; International Falls,
Ontonagon, Morehead City, and
Huntington on January 16, 2008; and
Port Canaveral on January 17, 2008. The
Coast Guard will publish a separate
notice in the Federal Register indicating
when facilities within the Captain of the
Port Zone Honolulu, including those in
the Port of Hilo; Captain of the Port
Zone Duluth, including those in the
Ports of International Falls and
Ontonagon; Captain of the Port Zone
North Carolina, including those in the
Port of Morehead City; Captain of the
Port Zone Ohio Valley, including those
in the Port of Huntington; and Captain
of the Port Zone Jacksonville, including
those in the Port of Port Canaveral must
comply with the portions of the final
rule requiring TWIC to be used as an
access control measure. That notice will
be published at least 90 days before
compliance is required.
To obtain information on the preenrollment and enrollment process, and
enrollment locations, visit TSA’s TWIC
Web site at http://www.tsa.gov/twic.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: 30 CFR Part 250, Subpart M,
Unitization.
OMB Control Number: 1010–0068.
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 administer leasing of the
OCS. Such rules and regulations will
apply to all operations conducted under
a lease. Operations on the OCS must
preserve, protect, and develop oil and
natural gas resources in a manner that
is consistent with the need to make such
resources available to meet the Nation’s
energy needs as rapidly as possible; to
balance orderly energy resource
development with protection of human,
marine, and coastal environments; to
ensure the public a fair and equitable
return on the resources of the OCS; and
to preserve and maintain free enterprise
competition.
This notice concerns the reporting
and recordkeeping elements of 30 CFR
Part 250, Subpart M, Unitization. We
will protect information from
respondents considered proprietary
under the Freedom of Information Act
(5 U.S.C. 552) and its implementing
regulations (43 CFR Part 2) and under
regulations at 30 CFR 250.197, ‘‘Data

and information to be made available to
the public or for limited inspection.’’ No
items of a sensitive nature are collected.
Responses are required to retain a
benefit. The MMS OCS Regions use the
information to determine whether to
approve a proposal to enter into an
agreement to unitize operations under
two or more leases or to approve
modifications when circumstances
change. The information is necessary to
ensure that operations will result in
preventing waste, conserving natural
resources, and protecting correlative
rights, including the Government’s
interests. We also use information
submitted to determine competitiveness
of a reservoir or to decide that
compelling unitization will achieve
these results.
Frequency: The frequency of reporting
is on occasion.
Estimated Number and Description of
Respondents: Approximately 130
Federal OCS oil and gas or sulphur
lessees.
Estimated Reporting and
Recordkeeping ‘‘Hour’’ Burden: The
currently approved annual reporting
burden for this collection is 5,884 hours.
The following chart details the
individual components and respective
hour burden estimates of this ICR. In
calculating the burdens, we assumed
that respondents perform certain
requirements in the normal course of
their activities. We consider these to be
usual and customary and took that into
account in estimating the burden.

requirements are specified in each Unit Agreement.

Estimated Reporting and
Recordkeeping ‘‘Non-Hour Cost’’
Burden: We have identified two ‘‘nonhour cost’’ burdens for this collection.
Section 1303 requires fees for a
voluntary unitization or unit expansion
and a fee for a unitization revision. We
have not identified any other ‘‘non-hour
cost’’ burdens associated with this
collection of information.
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. Until OMB approves a
collection of information, you are not
obligated to respond.
Comments: Before submitting an ICR
to OMB, PRA section 3506(c)(2)(A)
requires each agency ‘‘* * * to provide
notice * * * and otherwise consult
with members of the public and affected
agencies concerning each proposed
collection of information * * *’’.
Agencies must specifically solicit
comments to: (a) Evaluate whether the
proposed collection of information is
necessary for the agency to perform its
duties, including whether the
information is useful; (b) evaluate the
accuracy of the agency’s estimate of the
burden of the proposed collection of
information; (c) enhance the quality,
usefulness, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and (d)
minimize the burden on the
respondents, including the use of
automated collection techniques or
other forms of information technology.
Agencies must also estimate the ‘‘nonhour cost’’ burdens to respondents or
recordkeepers resulting from the
collection of information. Therefore, if
you have costs to generate, maintain,
and disclose this information, you
should comment and provide your total
capital and startup cost components or
annual operation, maintenance, and
purchase of service components. You
should describe the methods you use to
estimate major cost factors, including
system and technology acquisition,
expected useful life of capital
equipment, discount rate(s), and the
period over which you incur costs.
Capital and startup costs include,
among other items, computers and
software you purchase to prepare for
collecting information, monitoring, and
record storage facilities. You should not

include estimates for equipment or
services purchased: (i) Before October 1,
1995; (ii) to comply with requirements
not associated with the information
collection; (iii) for reasons other than to
provide information or keep records for
the Government; or (iv) as part of
customary and usual business or private
practices.
We will summarize written responses
to this notice and address them in our
submission for OMB approval. As a
result of your comments, we will make
any necessary adjustments to the burden
in our submission to OMB.
Public Comment Procedures: Before
including your address, phone number,
e-mail 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.
