this ICR, contact Nikki Mason by email
at [email protected], or by
telephone at (703) 787–1607.
Individuals in the United States who are
deaf, deafblind, hard of hearing, or have
a speech disability may dial 711 (TTY,
TDD, or TeleBraille) to access
telecommunications relay services.
Individuals outside the United States
should use the relay services offered
within their country to make
international calls to the point-ofcontact in the United States. You may
also view the ICR at http://
www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In
accordance with the PRA and 5 CFR
1320.8(d)(1), we provide the general
public and other Federal agencies with
an opportunity to comment on new,
proposed, revised, and continuing
collections of information. This helps us
assess the impact of our information
collection requirements and minimize
the public’s reporting burden. It also
helps the public understand our
information collection requirements and
provide the requested data in the
desired format.
A Federal Register notice with a 60day public comment period soliciting
comments on this collection of
information was published on August 4,
2022 (87 FR 47791).
As part of our continuing effort to
reduce paperwork and respondent
burdens, we are again soliciting
comments from the public and other
Federal agencies on the proposed ICR
that is described below. We are
especially interested in public comment
addressing the following:
(1) Whether or not the collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
agency, including whether or not the
information will have practical utility;
(2) The accuracy of our estimate of the
burden for this collection of
information, including the validity of
the methodology and assumptions used;
(3) Ways to enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected; and
(4) How might the agency minimize
the burden of the collection of
information on those who are to
respond, including through the use of
appropriate automated, electronic,
mechanical, or other technological
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology, e.g., permitting
electronic submission of response.
Comments that you submit in
response to this notice are a matter of
public record. Before including your
address, phone number, email address,
or other personal identifying

PO 00000

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.
Abstract: The regulations at 30 CFR
250 stipulate the various requirements
that must be submitted with an APM.
The form and the numerous submittals
that are included and/or attached to the
form are the subject of this collection.
This request also covers related Notices
to Lessees and Operators (NTLs) that
BSEE issues to clarify, supplement, or
provide additional guidance on some
aspects of our regulations.
The BSEE uses the information to
ensure safe well control, completion,
workover, and decommissioning
operations and to protect the human,
marine, and coastal environment.
Among other things, BSEE specifically
uses the information to ensure: the well
control, completion, workover, and
decommissioning unit (drilling/well
operations) is fit for the intended
purpose; equipment is maintained in a
state of readiness and meets safety
standards; each drilling/well operation
crew is properly trained and able to
promptly perform well-control activities
at any time during well operations;
compliance with safety standards; and
the current regulations will provide for
safe and proper field or reservoir
development, resource evaluation,
conservation, protection of correlative
rights, safety, and environmental
protection. We also review well records
to ascertain whether the operations have
encountered hydrocarbons or H2S and
to ensure that H2S detection equipment,
personnel protective equipment, and
training of the crew are adequate for safe
operations in zones known to contain
H2S and zones where the presence of
H2S is unknown.
Title of Collection: 30 CFR part 250,
