including the Alabama, Tombigbee, and
Cahaba River systems. Recent
collections of the species have been
restricted to the lower Alabama River
below R.F. Henry Lock and Dam to the
confluence of the Tombigbee River, as
well as to the lower Cahaba River near
its confluence with the Alabama River;
however, incidents of such collections
are extremely rare. The last capture of
an Alabama sturgeon was on April 3,
2007, by biologists at the Alabama
Department of Conservation and Natural
Resources (ADCNR). The species was
last observed on April 23, 2009, by
ADCNR biologists. The Alabama
sturgeon is one of the rarest species of
fish in the nation and may be close to
extinction.
Restoring an endangered or
threatened animal or plant to the point
where it is again a secure, selfsustaining member of its ecosystem is a
primary goal of our endangered species
program. To help guide the recovery
effort, we prepare recovery plans for
most listed species. Recovery plans
describe actions considered necessary
for conservation of the species, establish
criteria for downlisting or delisting, and
estimate time and cost for implementing
recovery measures.
The Act requires the development of
recovery plans for listed species, unless
such a plan would not promote the
conservation of a particular species.
Section 4(f) of the Act requires us to
provide a public notice and an
opportunity for public review and
comment during recovery plan
development. The draft of this recovery
plan was available for public comment
from April 12 through June 11, 2012 (77
FR 21993). We considered the
information received via public
comments as well as from peer
reviewers in our preparation and
approval of this final recovery plan. We
also edited some sections of the draft
recovery plan to reflect these comments;
however, no substantial changes were
made to the draft plan.
Recovery Plan Components
The objective of this plan is to
provide a framework for the recovery of
the Alabama sturgeon so that protection
under the Act is no longer necessary.
Delisting of the species is not currently
foreseeable due to extreme curtailment
of range and extensive modification to
the riverine habitats. Therefore, this
recovery plan establishes criteria for
downlisting the Alabama sturgeon from
endangered to threatened.
Downlisting of the Alabama sturgeon
may be considered when the following
criteria are met: (1) A population
consisting of approximately 500
VerDate Mar<15>2010
19:47 Aug 05, 2013
Jkt 229001
sexually mature Alabama sturgeon is
shown to be surviving and naturally
reproducing in the Alabama/Cahaba
Rivers; (2) population studies show that
the Alabama sturgeon population is
naturally recruiting (consisting of
multiple age classes), sustainable over a
period of 20 years (2–3 generations), and
no longer requires hatchery
augmentation; and (3) an agreement is
in place that ensures adequate flows are
being delivered down the Alabama
River for successful development of
sturgeon larvae and passage of the fish
both upstream and downstream at dams
on the Alabama River.
Authority
The authority for this action is section
4(f) of the Endangered Species Act, 16

(PRA), the Bureau of Ocean Energy
Management (BOEM) is inviting
comments on the proposed revision of
forms associated with a collection of
information that we will submit to the
Office of Management and Budget

Control Number: 1010–0106.
Title: 30 CFR 553, Oil Spill Financial
Responsibility for Offshore Facilities.
Forms: BOEM–1016 through 1023 and
BOEM–1025.
Abstract: On May 1, 2013, BOEM
released a notice inviting public
comment on the information collection
renewal of requirements for BOEM’s Oil
Spill Financial Responsibility (OSFR)
regulations under 30 CFR 553 (78 FR
25472). The BOEM uses the information
collected under these regulations to
verify compliance with section 1016 of
the Oil Pollution Act of 1990, as
amended (OPA), and to confirm that
applicants can pay for cleanup and
damages resulting from oil spills and
other hydrocarbon discharges that
originate from Covered Offshore
Facilities (COFs). Since May, BOEM has
proposed revising the forms used with
this collection and is providing the 60day public comment period for the
revisions with this notice.
BOEM is splitting the function of
some forms and revising others to
clarify the responsibilities and financial
obligations of responsible parties and
applicants, as described in the Outer
Continental Shelf Lands Act, and to
better align the terminology and liability
with the provisions of OPA. These
revisions will better protect the Federal
Government from potential disputes and
litigation by clarifying that the primary
relationship is between the responsible
party and guarantor and that the
designated applicant/operator is
intended to function primarily in an
administrative capacity. The revisions
will also better align BOEM’s process
with that of the U.S. Coast Guard’s
National Pollution Fund Center, thereby
reducing the burden on industry in
complying with potentially conflicting
guidance on oil spill responsibility,
particularly with respect to offshore
facilities that also function as vessels.

Below is a description of each affected
form, as well as any change in the
burden. The revised forms are also
printed at the end of this notice. Until
OMB approves these revisions, the
current forms remain in use and can be
located at http://www.boem.gov/AboutBOEM/Procurement-BusinessOpportunities/BOEM-OCS-OperationForms/BOEM-OCS-OperationForms.aspx.
Form BOEM–1016, Designated
Applicant Information Certification.
This form remains essentially the same
except for updating the choices of forms
and clarifying the administrative role of
the designated applicant. No change in
the 1-hour burden is expected.
Form BOEM–1017, Appointment of
Designated Applicant. This form
remains essentially the same except for
changing the title, clarifying the
administrative role of the designated
applicant, and adding a column to
record depth ranges, when applicable.
No change in the 9-hour burden is
expected.
Form BOEM–1018, Self-Insurance
Information. The original form posed
potential confusion because it served
two purposes, both to provide evidence
of self-insurance (for responsible
parties) and as an indemnity (executed
by persons other than the responsible
party). Thus, the form has been split
into two forms (BOEM–1018 and
BOEM–1023). BOEM–1018 focuses on
self-insurance only and is reworded to
more closely align with the
requirements of OPA, adding an
agreement to update/renew expiring or
terminated instruments and a signature
section. No change in the 1-hour burden
is expected.
Form BOEM–1019, Insurance
Certificate. The language and
agreements in this form have been
reworded for compliance with OPA, to
clarify that the insurer is responsible for
OPA liabilities of the responsible
parties, and to add an agreement to
update/renew expiring or terminated
instruments. No change in the 120-hour
burden is expected.
Form BOEM–1020, Surety Bond. The
language and agreements in this form
have been reworded for compliance
with OPA, to clarify that the Surety is
responsible for OPA liabilities of the
responsible parties, and to add an
agreement to update/renew expiring or
terminated instruments. No change in
the 24-hour burden is expected.
Forms BOEM–1021, Covered Offshore
Facilities, and BOEM–1022, Covered
Offshore Facility Changes. These forms
remain essentially the same except for
rewording of the subtitles to match the
other forms and adding a provision for
PO 00000
Frm 00055
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
rights-of-way. There is no change in the
1-hour burden for BOEM–1022;
however, based on respondent input we
are increasing the burden for BOEM–
1021 from 3 to 6 hours.
Form BOEM–1023, Financial
Guarantee. This new form replaces the
indemnity agreement (previously part of
BOEM–1018) with a provision that an
affiliated firm, such as a corporate
parent, may promise to satisfy any
claims against the responsible parties. It
also adds an agreement to update/renew
expiring or terminated instruments and
a signature section. The hour burden is
estimated as 1.5 hours.
Form BOEM–1025, Independent
Designated Applicant Information
Certification. This new form allows a
designated applicant, who is not also a
responsible party, to continue to agree
to be jointly and severally liable under
OPA until BOEM promulgates
regulations that will repeal this
requirement. We estimate the burden
hour to be 1 hour.
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 550.197, ‘‘Data
and information to be made available to
the public or for limited inspection.’’ No
items of a sensitive nature are being
collected. Responses are mandatory.
Frequency: On occasion or annual
basis.
Description of Respondents: Holders
of leases, permits, and rights of use and
easement in the Outer Continental Shelf
and in State coastal waters and those
who will appoint designated applicants
to process their OSFR paperwork. Other
respondents will be the designated
applicants’ insurance agents and
brokers, bonding companies, and
guarantors.
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

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

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

PAPERWORK REDUCTION ACT STATEMENT
BUREAU OF OCEAN ENERGY MANAGEMENT
OIL POLLUTION ACT OF 1990
OIL SPILL FINANCIAL RESPONSIBILITY FOR OFFSHORE FACILITIES
The Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.) requires us to inform you that the Bureau of
Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) collects this information to:
1.
Provide a standard method for establishing eligibility for oil spill financial responsibility (OSFR) for
offshore facilities;
2.
Identify and maintain a record of those offshore facilities that have a potential oil spill liability;
3.
Establish and maintain a continuous record, over the liability term specified in Title I of the Oil
Pollution Act of 1990, of financial evidence and instruments established to pay claims for oil spill
cleanup and damages resulting from operations conducted on offshore facilities and the
transportation of oil from offshore platforms and wells;
4.
Establish and maintain a continuous record of Responsible Parties, as defined in Title I of the Oil
Pollution Act of 1990, and their agents or Authorized Representatives for oil spill financial
responsibility for offshore facilities; and
5.
Establish and maintain a continuous record, over the liability term specified in Title I of the Oil
Pollution Act of 1990, of persons to contact and U.S. Agents for Service of Process for claims
associated with oil spills from offshore facilities.
The BOEM will routinely use the information to:
1.
Ensure compliance of offshore lessees and ovvners and operators of offshore facilities with Title I of
the Oil Pollution Act of 1990;
2
Establish eligibility of applicants for OSFR; and
3.
Establish a reference source of names, addresses, and telephone numbers of Responsible Parties
for offshore facilities and their Authorized Representatives and Guarantors for claims associated
with oil pollution from designated offshore facilities.
Responses are mandatory (33 U.S.C. 2716). No confidential or proprietary information is required to be
submitted. The BOEM considers oil spill financial responsibility demonstrations, including supporting audited
financial statements, to be public information open for review under the Freedom of Information Act (5
U.8.C. 552).
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 Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Control Number.
The public reporting burden for an application for certification of oil spill financial responsibility is listed
below. The burden includes the time for reViewing instructions, gathering and maintaining data, and
completing and reviewing the application. The average burden for each of the forms and required
information that could comprise a submission is:
DeSignated Applicant Information Certification ....................... 1 hour
AppOintment of DeSignated Applicant ............ ., ............ ., ..... 9 hours
Self-Insurance Information ...................................................1 hour

of oil, gas, and mineral resources on the
Federal OCS. These SEAs examine the
potential environmental effects of
proposed activities and present BOEM
conclusions regarding the significance
of those effects. The SEAs are used as
a basis for determining whether or not
approval of the proposals constitutes a
major Federal action that significantly
affects the quality of the human
environment in accordance with NEPA
Section 102(2)(C). A FONSI is prepared
in those instances where BOEM finds
that approval will not result in
significant effects on the quality of the
human environment. The FONSI briefly
presents the basis for that finding and
includes a summary or copy of the SEA.
This notice constitutes the public
notice of availability of environmental
