**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION :** 

OMB Control Number: 1010–0082. Title: 30 CFR part 581, Leasing of Minerals Other than Oil, Gas, and Sulphur in the Outer Continental Shelf.

Abstract: The Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) Lands Act (Act), as amended (43 U.S.C. 1337), authorizes the Secretary of the Interior (Secretary) to grant to the qualified persons, offering the highest cash bonuses on a basis of competitive bidding, leases of any mineral other than oil, gas, and sulphur. This applies to any area of the OCS not then under lease for such mineral upon royalty, rental, and other terms and conditions that the Secretary may prescribe at the time of the lease offer. The Secretary is to administer the leasing provisions of the Act and prescribe the rules and regulations necessary to carry out those provisions.

Regulations at 30 CFR part 581 implement these statutory requirements. There has been no leasing activity in the OCS for minerals other than oil, gas, or sulphur for many years; however, because these are regulatory requirements, the potential exists for information to be collected. Therefore, we are renewing OMB approval for this information collection.

BOEM will use the information required by 30 CFR part 581 to determine if statutory requirements are met prior to the issuance of a lease. Specifically, BOEM will use the information to:

• Evaluate the area and minerals requested by the lessee to assess the viability of offering leases for sale and ensure the Federal Government receives fair market value for the mineral(s);

• Request the State(s) to initiate the establishment of a joint group to assess the proposed action;

• Ensure excessive overriding royalty interests are not created that would put economic constraints on all parties involved;

• Document that a leasehold or geographical subdivision has been surrendered by the record title holder; and

• Determine if activities on the proposed lease area(s) will have a significant impact on the environment.

We protect proprietary information according to the Freedom of Information Act (5 U.S.C. 552) and its implementing regulations (43 CFR part 2), and 30 CFR Parts 580 and 582. No items of a sensitive nature are collected. Responses are mandatory or required to obtain a benefit.

Frequency: On occasion. Description of Respondents: As there are no active respondents, we estimate the potential annual number of respondents to be one. Potential respondents are OCS lease requestors, State governments, and OCS lessees.

Estimated Reporting and Recordkeeping Hour Burden: We expect the annual reporting burden for this renewal to be 1,264 hours. The following table details the individual components and respective hour burden estimates of this ICR. 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.
