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)]. OSM has
submitted a request to OMB to renew its
approval for the collection of
information for 30 CFR 874.16, and the
AML Contractor Information Form
which is found in the Applicant/
Violator System (AVS) handbook. OSM
is requesting a 3-year term of approval
for this collection. This collection is
required to obtain or retain a benefit.
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 1029–0119.
As required by 5 CFR 1320.8(d), a
Federal Register notice soliciting
comments on this collection of
information was published on August
17, 2012 (77 FR 49827). 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: 30 CFR 874.16—Contractor
Eligibility and the Abandoned Mine
Land Contractor Information Form.
OMB Control Number: 1029–0119.
Summary: 30 CFR 874.16 requires
that every successful bidder for an AML
contract must be eligible under 30 CFR
773.15(b)(1) at the time of contract
award to receive a permit or conditional
permit to conduct surface coal mining
operations. Further, the regulation
requires the eligibility to be confirmed
by OSM’s automated Applicant/Violator
System (AVS) and the contractor must
be eligible under the regulations
implementing Section 510(c) of the
Surface Mining Act to receive permits to
conduct mining operations. This form
provides a tool for OSM and the States/
Indian tribes to help them prevent
persons with outstanding violations
from conducting further mining or AML
reclamation activities in the State.

contract.
