Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 215 / Wednesday, November 6, 2013 / Notices
In this renewal, 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 revised forms can be viewed
online at http://www.reginfo.gov or in
the August 6, 2013, Federal Register
notice (78 FR 47724).
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

VerDate Mar<15>2010

17:25 Nov 05, 2013

Jkt 232001

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
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.
Estimated Reporting and
Recordkeeping Non-Hour Cost Burden:
We have identified no reporting and
recordkeeping non-hour cost burdens
for this collection.
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: Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of
the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501, et seq.)
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 collection is
necessary or useful; (b) evaluate the
accuracy of the burden estimates; (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
technology.
To comply with the public
consultation process, on May 1, 2013,
BOEM published a Federal Register
notice (78 FR 25472) announcing that
we would submit this ICR to OMB for

PO 00000

approval. On August 6, 2013, we
published a supplementary notice (78
FR 47724) requesting public comment
on the revised forms. These notices each
provided the required 60-day comment
period. We received one comment from
the Marine Mammal Commission,
which expressed support for BOEM’s
required information collection as part
of a comprehensive Federal/State oil
spill response program.
Public Availability of Comments:
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.
