SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Abstract
The Energy Policy Act of 2005
authorizes the Secretary of the Interior
to provide grants to Indian tribes for
energy development. See 25 U.S.C.
3502. The Office of Indian Energy and
Economic Development (IEED)
administers and manages the Energy
and Minerals Development Program
(EMDP). Congress appropriates funds to
EMDP on a year-to-year basis. When
funding is available, IEED may solicit
proposals for energy and mineral
development projects from Indian tribes
whose lands are held in trust or
restricted fee by the Federal
government. Tribes may use the
contracting mechanism established by
the Indian Self-Determination Act or
may receive the grant money through
adjustments to their funding from the

Office of Self-Governance. See 25 U.S.C.
450 et seq. The projects may be in the
areas of exploration, assessment,
development, feasibility, or market
studies. Indian tribes that would like to
apply for an EMDP grant must submit
an application that includes certain
information, and must assist IEED by
providing information in support of any
National Environmental Policy Act
(NEPA) analyses. A complete
application must contain the following
elements.
• A current, signed tribal resolution
that: (1) Authorizes the energy and
mineral development project for the
appropriate fiscal year; (2) describes
the commodity or commodities to
be studied; (3) states that the tribe
is willing to consider developing
any potential energy or mineral
resources discovered; (4) describes
how the tribe prefers to have the
energy or mineral program
conducted (i.e., through the sole
utilization of IEED in-house
professional staff, in conjunction
with professional tribal staff,
through private contractors, or
through other appropriate means);
and (5) states that the tribe will
consider public release of
information obtained from the
energy and mineral development
study upon request from IEED.
• A proposal describing the planned
activities and deliverable products
that will be accomplished within
the fiscal year for which funding is
requested, including:
Æ Overview, including the elements
of the proposed study, reasons why
the proposed study is needed, total
requested funding, responsible
parties for technical exaction and
administration, and tribal point of
contact for the project;
Æ Technical summary of the project,
including whether the request will
begin a new study or continue a
study and the duration of the study,
a description of any known energy
and/or mineral deposit, reference to
any existing mineral exploration
information, and a description of
any environmental or cultural
sensitive areas;
Æ Project objective, goals and scope of
work;
Æ Deliverable products, such as
technical data and maps; and
Æ Resumes of key personnel.
• A detailed budget estimate, including
contracted personnel costs, travel
estimates, data collection and
analysis costs, and other expenses.
The IEED requires this information to
ensure that it provides funding only to

6406

Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 26 / Tuesday, February 9, 2010 / Notices

those projects that meet the goals of the
EMDP and the purposes for which
Congress provides the appropriations.
Once a tribe has been accepted into
the EMDP, the tribe must also submit
quarterly reports, which are one- or twopage documents summarizing events,
accomplishments, problems and/or
results in executing the project. Each
report is due two weeks after the end of
the fiscal quarter.
The Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
provides an opportunity for interested
parties to comment on proposed
information collection requests. The
IEED is proceeding with this public
comment period as the first step in
obtaining an information collection
clearance from OMB. Each clearance
request contains (1) type of review, (2)
title, (3) summary of the collection, (4)
respondents, (5) frequency of collection,
(6) reporting and recordkeeping
requirements.

II. Request for Comments

this collection concerning: (a) The
necessity of this information collection

functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden (hours

the methodology and assumptions used;
(c) ways we could enhance the quality,

Please note that an agency may not
sponsor or request, and an individual
need not respond to, a collection of
information unless it has a valid OMB
Control Number.
