60-day notice.

To comply with the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(PRA), the Bureau of Ocean Energy
Management (BOEM) is inviting
comments on a collection of information
that we will submit to the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for
review and approval. The information
collection request (ICR) concerns the
paperwork requirements in the
regulations under 30 CFR 551,
Geological and Geophysical (G&G)
Explorations of the Outer Continental
Shelf.
DATES: Submit written comments by
October 21, 2014.
ADDRESSES: Please send your comments
on this ICR to the BOEM Information
Collection Clearance Officer, Arlene
Bajusz, Bureau of Ocean Energy
Management, 381 Elden Street, HM–
3127, Herndon, Virginia 20170 (mail); or
[email protected] (email); or
703–787–1209 (fax). Please reference
ICR 1010–0048 in your comment and
include your name and return address.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Arlene Bajusz, Office of Policy,
Regulations, and Analysis at (703) 787–
1025 to request a copy of the ICR.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
OMB Control Number: 1010–0048.
Title: 30 CFR 551, Geological and
Geophysical (G&G) Explorations of the
Outer Continental Shelf.
Form: BOEM–0327, Requirements for
G&G Explorations or Scientific Research
on the OCS.
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
to prescribe rules and regulations to
administer leasing of mineral resources
on the OCS. The OCS Lands Act (43
U.S.C. 1340) states that ‘‘any person
authorized by the Secretary may
conduct geological and geophysical

explorations in the [O]uter Continental
Shelf, which do not interfere with or
endanger actual operations under any
lease maintained or granted pursuant to
this subchapter, and which are not
unduly harmful to aquatic life in such
area.’’ The section further requires that
permits to conduct such activities may
only be issued if it is determined that
the applicant is qualified; the activities
do not result in pollution or create
hazardous or unsafe conditions; the
activities do not unreasonably interfere
with other uses of the area or disturb
any site, structure, or object of historical
or archaeological significance.
Applicants for permits are required to
submit form BOEM–0327 to provide the
information necessary to evaluate their
qualifications, and upon approval,
respondents are issued a permit.
The Independent Offices
Appropriations Act (31 U.S.C. 9701), the
Omnibus Appropriations Bill (Pub. L.
104–133, 110 Stat. 1321, April 26,
1996), and the OMB Circular A–25
authorize Federal agencies to recover
the full cost of services that confer
special benefits. All G&G permits are
subject to cost recovery, and BOEM
regulations specify service fees for these
requests.
Regulations to carry out these
responsibilities are contained in 30 CFR
551 and are the subject of this
information collection renewal. BOEM
uses the information to ensure there is
no environmental degradation, personal
harm or unsafe operations and
conditions, damage to historical or
archaeological sites, or interference with
other uses; to analyze and evaluate
preliminary or planned drilling
activities; to monitor progress and
activities in the OCS; to acquire G&G
data and information collected under a
Federal permit offshore; and to
determine eligibility for reimbursement
from the government for certain costs.
Information on the G&G characteristics
of oil- and gas-bearing physiographic
regions aids the Secretary in obtaining
a proper balance among the potentials
for environmental damage, the
discovery of oil and gas, and associated
impacts on affected coastal States.
In this renewal, BOEM is updating
form BOEM–0327 to clarify the types of
copies being requested, delete incorrect
language, make recommendations for
faster processing, and update addresses.
To respond to the number of questions
BOEM receives from permittees on the
form, BOEM is also clarifying wording,
providing examples/tables to reduce
confusion, and separating requirements
by OCS Region to further assist

permittees. BOEM is not asking for more
information, just outlining current
requirements in more detail. We do not
expect these improvements to change
the 3-hour burden for the majority of
permit applications, which are
associated with G&G exploration in the
Gulf of Mexico OCS Region.
However, for applications in the
Alaska OCS Region and Atlantic OCS,
BOEM is adjusting the burden to be
significantly higher (300 hours), not
because of the form improvements, but
because of the requirements to submit
environmental information sufficient for
the National Environmental Policy Act
(NEPA) review about the effects of
sound on marine mammals and other
protected species. To acquire G&G data,
companies need to (1) obtain a BOEM
permit, (2) obtain an Incidental
Harassment Authorization (IHA) from
the National Marine Fisheries Service,
and (3) coordinate their activities with
the Department of Defense (DOD) and

the National Aeronautics and Space
Administration (NASA). Much of this
work has already been done for the Gulf
of Mexico OCS, where G&G activity has
been ongoing for years. While
prospective permittees must obtain the
IHA and coordinate with DOD and
NASA before BOEM issues a permit, the
time or burden to fill out form BOEM–
0327 and acquire the information for the
form remains the same. However, in
areas outside of the Gulf of Mexico OCS
Region, BOEM is accounting for the
total time companies will expend to
compile and submit the necessary
information to obtain the required
authorizations to acquire a BOEM
permit in these areas as well as
coordinate with DOD/NASA. Therefore,
the burden for applicants in the Alaska
and Atlantic OCS areas to describe the
environmental effects and proposed
mitigations is estimated much higher.
To complement the changes made in
form BOEM–0327, BOEM is also

separating the requirements in the
BOEM-issued permits by OCS Region to
further assist permittees. The actual
permits are filled in by BOEM and do
not incur a respondent hour burden.
We protect proprietary information
according to the Freedom of Information
Act (5 U.S.C. 552) and its implementing
regulations (43 CFR part 2), and under
regulations at 30 CFR 551. No items of
a sensitive nature are collected.
Responses are mandatory.
Frequency: On occasion, annual, or as
specified in permits.
Description of Respondents: Potential
respondents comprise Federal OCS oil,
gas, and sulphur permittees or notice
filers.
Estimated Reporting and
Recordkeeping Hour Burden: We
estimate the burden for this collection to
be about 9,876 hours. The following

and respective hour burden estimates of
