following issues: (1) Is the collection
necessary to the proper functions of the
BLM; (2) will this information be
processed and used in a timely manner;
(3) is the estimate of burden accurate;
(4) how might the BLM enhance the
quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and (5) how
might the BLM minimize the burden of
this collection on the respondents,
including through the use of
information technology.
Comments that you submit in
response to this notice are a matter of
public record. The BLM will include or
summarize each comment in our request
to OMB to approve this ICR. Before

identifying information from public
review, the BLM cannot guarantee that
it will be able to do so.
Abstract: The BLM uses the required
information to collect information from
those who wish to participate in the
exploration, development, production,
and utilization of geothermal resources.
The BLM has authority to issue
geothermal leases in BLM-managed
lands, and in national forests and other
lands administered by the USFS. In this
ICR, the BLM is proposing to revise
Form 3200–9, Notice of Intent to
Conduct Geothermal Resource
Exploration Operations. A respondent
submits this form either to the BLM or
to the USFS, depending upon which
agency has surface-management
jurisdiction. Upon receiving such a
form, the relevant agency determines
whether to grant a permit to conduct
geophysical exploration activities for
geothermal resources. Approval by the
authorizing agency is required before
any ground-disturbing activities beyond
casual use may commence. At present,
Form 3200–9 refers directly only to the
BLM. The proposed revisions of the
form would simplify its use by both
agencies. The BLM is proposing that the
remaining forms in this ICR be renewed
without revision.
Title of Collection: Geothermal
Resource Leasing and Permitting, and
Geothermal Resources Unit Agreements.
OMB Control Number: 1004–0132.
Forms: 3200–9, 3203–1, 3260–2,
3260–3, 3260–4, and 3260–5.
Type of Review: Revision of a
currently approved collection.
Description of Respondents:
Businesses that wish to participate in
the exploration, development,
production, and utilization of
geothermal resources on BLM-managed
public lands, and lands managed by
other Federal surface-management
agencies.
Total Estimated Number of Annual
Responses: 914.
Estimated Completion Time per
Response: Varies from 1 to 40 hours,
depending on activity.
Total Estimated Number of Annual
Burden Hours: 5,417.
Respondent’s Obligation: Required to
obtain or retain a benefit.
Frequency of Collection: On occasion,
except for Form 3260–5, Monthly
Report of Geothermal Operations, which
is filed once a month.
Total Estimated Annual Nonhour
Burden Cost: $83,260.
An agency may not conduct or
sponsor and a person is not required to
respond to a collection of information
unless it displays a currently valid OMB
control number. The authority for this
