Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 Statement: The Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 2501 et seq.) requires us to
inform you that BOEM collects this information as part of an applicant’s Exploration Plan or Development Operations
Coordination Document submitted for BOEM approval. We use the information to facilitate our review and data entry for OCS
plans. We will protect proprietary data according to the Freedom of Information Act and 30 CFR 550.197. 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 Office
of Management and Budget Control Number. Responses are mandatory (43 U.S.C. 1334). The public reporting burden for this
form is included in the burden for preparing Exploration Plans and Development Operations Coordination Documents. We
estimate that burden to average 600 hours with an accompanying EP, or 700 hours with an accompanying DPP or DOCD, including
the time for reviewing instructions, gathering and maintaining data, and completing and reviewing the forms associated with
subpart B. Direct comments regarding the burden estimate or any other aspect of this form to the Information Collection Clearance
Officer, Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, 45600 Woodland Road, Sterling, Virginia 20166.
