Proposed Agency Information
Collection
U.S. Energy Information
Administration (EIA), Department of
Energy.
ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:

EIA submitted an information
collection request for extending, with
changes, the Oil and Gas Reserves
Survey Program pursuant to the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. The
information collection requests a threeyear extension of Form EIA–64A,
Annual Report of the Origin of Natural
Gas Liquids Production; Form EIA–23L,
Annual Report of Domestic Oil and Gas
Reserves; and Form EIA–23S, Annual
Survey of Domestic Oil and Gas
Reserves, Summary Level Report. The
information collected is used to develop
accurate national and regional estimates
of proved reserves of domestic crude oil
and natural gas.
DATES: Comments regarding this
collection must be received on or before
April 11, 2019. If you anticipate any
difficulties in submitting your
comments by the deadline, contact the
DOE Desk Officer at (202) 395–0710.
ADDRESSES: Written comments should
be sent to the DOE Desk Officer:
Brandon DeBruhl, Office of Information
and Regulatory Affairs, Office of
Management and Budget, New
Executive Office Building, Room 10102,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This
information collection request contains:

(2) Information Collection Request
Title: Oil and Gas Reserves System;

(3) Type of Request: Three-year
extension with changes.
(4) Purpose: Forms EIA–23L and EIA–
23S provide accurate national and
regional data on the proved reserves of
crude oil, natural gas, and natural gas
liquids (NGL). Form EIA–64A provides
data that are used to estimate natural gas
plant liquids production and reserves by
state and federal offshore regions.
(4a) Changes to Information
Collection:
Changes to Form EIA–23L:
D Coalbed methane is deleted as a
response category choice for Type Code
reported in section 2. Fields previously
classified as coalbed methane will be
merged into the conventional gas
category.
Changes to Form EIA–64A:
D Collect the total outlet volume of
residue natural gas and the volume of
residue natural gas sent to a pipeline.
D Collect the amount of electricity
consumed annually at the natural gas
plant (a growing percentage of natural
gas processing plants are 100%
electrically-powered rather than
consuming any of the natural gas
received for processing as fuel, because
of air quality restrictions imposed on
sources of combustion emissions).
D Collect an annual total of natural
gas liquids by components or products
produced at the natural gas processing
plant in Section 3 of Form EIA–64A,
rather than requesting only total plant
NGL volume reported in Line 4.8.
D Delete Item 5.0 Gas Shrinkage
Resulting from Natural Gas
Liquids Extracted. Operators no
longer need to calculate their own
estimate of the volumes of gas shrinkage
in millions of cubic feet (MMCF)
resulting from the removal of natural gas
liquids from the natural gas received at
the plant. The shrinkage volumes will
now be calculated automatically by EIA
using the component data from Section
3.
(5) Annual Estimated Number of
Respondents: 1,600 total respondents:
Form EIA–23Lconsist of 500
respondents.
Form EIA–23S consist of 500
respondents.
Form EIA–64A consist of 600
respondents.
(6) Annual Estimated Number of
Responses: 1,600 total responses.
(7) Annual Estimated Number of
Burden Hours: 28,800 hours.
(8) Annual Estimated Reporting and
Recordkeeping Cost Burden: The cost of
burden hours to the respondents is
estimated to be $ 2,131,776 (28,800
burden hours times $74.02 per hour).
EIA estimates that there are no
additional costs to respondents

associated with the surveys other than
