SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: 30 CFR 250, Subpart I,
Platforms and Structures.
OMB Control Number: 1014–0011.
Abstract: The Outer Continental Shelf
(OCS) Lands Act (OCSLA) at 43 U.S.C.
1334 authorizes the Secretary of the
Interior to prescribe rules and
regulations necessary for the
administration of the leasing provisions
of that Act related to mineral resources
on the OCS. Such rules and regulations
will apply to all operations conducted
under a lease, right-of-way, or a right-ofuse and easement. Operations on the
OCS must preserve, protect, and
develop oil and natural gas 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.
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

Jkt 238001
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 Independent Offices
Appropriations Act (31 U.S.C. 9701), the
Omnibus Appropriations Bill (Pub. L.
104–133, 110 Stat. 1321, April 26,
1996), and OMB Circular A–25,
authorize Federal agencies to recover
the full cost of services that confer
special benefits. Under the Department
of the Interior’s implementing policy,
BSEE is required to charge fees for
services that provide special benefits or
privileges to an identifiable non-Federal
recipient above and beyond those which
accrue to the public at large. Various
applications, reports, and certifications
for Platform Verification Program, fixed
structure, Caisson/Well Protector, and
modification repairs are subject to cost
recovery, and BSEE regulations specify
service fees for these requests.
These authorities and responsibilities
are among those delegated to BSEE. The
regulations at 30 CFR 250, Subpart I,
pertain to Platforms and Structures and
are the subject of this collection. This
request also covers the related Notices
to Lessees and Operators (NTLs) that
BSEE issues to clarify, supplement, or
provide additional guidance on some
aspects of our regulations.
Some responses are mandatory and
some are required to obtain or retain a
benefit. No questions of a sensitive
nature are asked. BSEE will protect
proprietary information according to the
Freedom of Information Act (5 U.S.C.
552) and DOI’s implementing

regulations (43 CFR 2); 30 CFR part
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.
The BSEE uses the information
submitted under Subpart I to determine
the structural integrity of all OCS
platforms and floating production
facilities and to ensure that such
integrity will be maintained throughout
the useful life of these structures. We
use the information to ascertain, on a
case-by-case basis, that the fixed and
floating platforms and structures are
structurally sound and safe for their
intended use to ensure safety of
personnel and prevent pollution. More
specifically, we use the information to:
• Review data concerning damage to
a platform to assess the adequacy of
proposed repairs.
• Review applications for platform
construction (construction is divided
into three phases–design, fabrication,
and installation) to ensure the structural
integrity of the platform.
• Review verification plans and thirdparty reports for unique platforms to
ensure that all nonstandard situations
are given proper consideration during
the platform design, fabrication, and
installation.
• Review platform design, fabrication,
and installation records to ensure that
the platform is constructed according to
approved applications.
• Review inspection reports to ensure
that platform integrity is maintained for
the life of the platform.
Frequency: On occasion, as a result of
situations encountered; and annually.
Description of Respondents: Potential
respondents include Federal OCS oil,
gas, or sulfur lessees and/or operators
and holders of pipeline rights-of-way.
Estimated Reporting and
Recordkeeping Hour Burden: The
currently approved annual reporting
burden for this collection is 261,313
hours and $392,874 non-hour costs. The
following chart details the individual
components and estimated hour
burdens. 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.

Estimated Reporting and
Recordkeeping Non-Hour Cost Burden:
We have identified four non-hour cost
burdens, which are service fees required
to recover the Federal Government’s
processing costs of certain submissions
for various platform applications/
installations. The platform fees are as
follows: $22,734 for installation under
the Platform Verification Program;
$3,256 for installation of fixed
structures under the Platform Approval
Program; $1,657 for installation of
Caisson/Well Protectors; and $3,884 for
modifications and/or repairs (see
§ 250.125). We have not identified any
other non-hour cost burdens associated
with this collection of information, and
we estimate a total reporting non-hour
cost burden of $392,874.
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
collection is necessary or useful; (b)
evaluate the accuracy of 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
technology.
Agencies must also estimate the nonhour paperwork cost burdens to
respondents or recordkeepers resulting
from the collection of information.
Therefore, if you have other non-hour
burden 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. For further
information on this burden, refer to 5
CFR 1320.3(b)(1) and (2), or contact the
Bureau representative listed previously
in this notice.
We will summarize written responses
to this notice and address them in our
submission for OMB approval. As a
result of your comments, we will make
any necessary adjustments to the burden
in our submission to OMB.
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.
