SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The San
Joaquin River Restoration Program
(SJRRP) was established in late 2006 to
implement the Stipulation of Settlement
(Settlement) in Natural Resources
Defense Council, et al. v. Kirk Rodgers,
et al. The Mendota Pool Bypass and
Reach 2B Improvements Project
(Project) consists of establishing a
floodplain width which would be
capable of conveying at least 4,500
cubic feet per second (cfs), a method to
bypass restoration flows around
Mendota Pool, and a method to deliver
water to Mendota Pool. The Project
footprint extends from approximately
0.3 mile above the Chowchilla Bypass
Bifurcation Structure to approximately
one mile below the Mendota Dam in the
area of Fresno and Madera counties,
near the town of Mendota, California.
This Final EIS/EIR has been prepared in
coordination with the parties to the
Settlement and the SJRRP Implementing
Agencies, including the U.S. Fish and
Wildlife Service, National Marine
Fisheries Service, State of California
Department of Water Resources, and
State of California Department of Fish
and Wildlife. National Marine Fisheries
Service, U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency, and the U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers have been cooperating
agencies in preparation of the Final EIS/
EIR.
The EIS/EIR analyzes five
alternatives. Under the No-Action
Alternative, the Project would not be
implemented. Although future
conditions would not include the
components described below in the
Action Alternatives, other components
of the SJRRP would be implemented
following completion and receipt of
appropriate environmental reviews and
approvals, as necessary. Likely future
conditions include implementation of
the other components of the SJRRP
selected alternative, as described in the
2012 Record of Decision and analyzed
in the SJRRP Program EIS/EIR,

VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 238001

including Restoration Flows similar to
those that started January 2014, and
other reasonably foreseeable actions
expected to occur in the Project area.
Four Action Alternatives are analyzed
in the EIS/EIR: Alternative A (Compact
Bypass with Narrow Floodplain and
South Canal), Alternative B (Compact
Bypass with Consensus-Based
Floodplain and Bifurcation Structure),
Alternative C (Fresno Slough Dam with
Narrow Floodplain and Short Canal),
and Alternative D (Fresno Slough Dam
with Wide Floodplain and North Canal).
All four Action Alternatives are
designed to provide conveyance of at
least 4,500 cfs in Reach 2B and through
the Mendota Pool Bypass, and diversion
and screening of up to 2,500 cfs from
Reach 2B into Mendota Pool.
Constructed elements common to the
Action Alternatives include the
provision of fish habitat and passage,
seepage control measures, removal of
existing levees and structures, and levee
and structure construction and
modification, among other activities.
Alternative B (Compact Bypass with
Consensus-Based Floodplain and
Bifurcation Structure) [PREFERRED
ALTERNATIVE], would construct the
Compact Bypass Channel between
Reach 2B and Reach 3 to bypass the
Mendota Pool. Restoration Flows would
enter Reach 2B at the Chowchilla
Bifurcation Structure, flow through
Reach 2B, then downstream to Reach 3
via the Compact Bypass Channel. The
existing Chowchilla Bifurcation
Structure would continue to divert San
Joaquin River flows into the Chowchilla
Bypass during flood operations, and a
fish passage facility and control
structure modifications would be
included at the San Joaquin River
control structure at the Chowchilla
Bypass. A bifurcation structure would
be built at the head of the Compact
Bypass Channel to control diversions
into Mendota Pool. Fish passage
facilities would be built at the Compact
Bypass bifurcation structure to provide
passage around the structure and
prevent fish being entrained in the
diversion. The San Mateo Avenue
crossing would be removed.
A Notice of Availability for the Draft
EIS/EIR was published in the Federal
Register on June 9, 2015 (80 FR 32604).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: 30 CFR part 250, subpart F, Oil
and Gas Well-Workover Operations.
OMB Control Number: 1014–0001.
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
necessary for the administration of the
leasing provisions of the Act related to
the mineral resources on the OCS. Such
rules and regulations will apply to all
operations conducted under a lease.
Operations on the OCS must preserve,
protect, and develop mineral resources
in a manner that is consistent with the
need to make such resources available
to meet the Nation’s energy needs as
rapidly as possible; to balance orderly
energy resource development with
protection of human, marine, and
coastal environments; to ensure the
public a fair and equitable return on the
resources of the OCS; and to preserve
and maintain free enterprise
competition.
Section 5(a) of the OCS Lands Act
requires the Secretary to prescribe rules
and regulations ‘‘to provide for the
prevention of waste, and conservation of
the natural resources of the Outer
Continental Shelf, and the protection of
correlative rights therein’’ and to
include provisions ‘‘for the prompt and
efficient exploration and development
of a lease area.’’ These authorities and
responsibilities are among those

• Review well-workover procedures
relating to hydrogen sulfide (H2S) to
ensure the safety of the crew in the
event of encountering H2S.
• Review well-workover diagrams
and procedures to ensure the safety of
well-workover operations.
• Verify that the crown block safety
device is operating and can be expected
to function and avoid accidents.
• Assure that the well-workover
operations are conducted on well casing
that is structurally competent.
The BSEE will protect proprietary
information according to the Freedom of
Information Act (5 U.S.C. 552) and its
implementing regulations (43 CFR 2); 30
CFR 250.197, Data and information to
be made available to the public or for
limited inspection; and 30 CFR part 252,
OCS Oil and Gas Information Program.
No items of a sensitive nature are
collected. Responses are mandatory.
Frequency: On occasion, weekly,
monthly, annually, and varies by
section.
Description of Respondents: Potential
respondents include Federal OCS oil,
gas, and sulphur lessees and holders of
pipeline rights-of-way.
Estimated Reporting and
Recordkeeping Hour Burden: The
current OMB inventory includes 53,156
burden hours for this collection of
information. This submission requests
2,941 burden hours. The adjustment
decrease of 50,215 hours is due to the
publication of the final blowout
preventer regulations which moved
many of the requirements of Subpart F
into the new Subpart G regulations, Well
Operations and Equipment. There is no
non-hour cost burden associated with
this collection. The following chart
details the individual components and
respective hour burden estimates of this
ICR. In calculating the burdens, we
assumed that respondents perform
certain requirements in the normal
course of their activities. We consider
these to be usual and customary and
took that into account in estimating the
burden.

delegated to BSEE to ensure that
operations in the OCS will meet
statutory requirements; provide for
safety and protection of the
environment; and result in diligent
exploration, development, and
production of OCS leases. This
information collection (IC) request
addresses the regulations at 30 CFR 250,
subpart F, Oil and Gas Well-Workover
Operations, and any associated
supplementary Notices to Lessees and
Operators (NTLs) intended to provide
clarification, description, or explanation
of these regulations.
In addition to the general rulemaking
authority of the OCSLA at 43 U.S.C.
1334, section 301(a) of the Federal Oil
and Gas Royalty Management Act
(FOGRMA), 30 U.S.C. 1751(a), grants
authority to the Secretary to prescribe
such rules and regulations as are
reasonably necessary to carry out
FOGRMA’s provisions. While the
majority of FOGRMA is directed to
royalty collection and enforcement,
some provisions apply to offshore
operations. For example, section 108 of
FOGRMA, 30 U.S.C. 1718, grants the
Secretary broad authority to inspect
lease sites for the purpose of
determining whether there is
compliance with the mineral leasing
laws. Section 109(c)(2) and (d)(1), 30
U.S.C. 1719(c)(2) and (d)(1), impose
substantial civil penalties for failure to
permit lawful inspections and for
knowing or willful preparation or
submission of false, inaccurate, or
misleading reports, records, or other
information. Because the Secretary has
delegated some of the authority under
FOGRMA to BSEE, 30 U.S.C. 1751 is
included as additional authority for
these requirements.
The regulations at 30 CFR 250,
Subpart F, Oil and Gas Well-Workover
Operations are the subject of this
collection. Specifically, BSEE uses the
information collected to:
• Review log entries of crew meetings
to verify that safety procedures have
been properly reviewed.
