ACTION: 60-day notice. 

SUMMARY: To comply with the 

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 

(PRA), the Bureau of Ocean Energy 

Management (BOEM) is inviting 

comments on a collection of information 

that we will submit to the Office of 

Management and Budget (OMB) for 

review and approval. The information 

collection request (ICR) concerns the 

paperwork requirements in the 

regulations under 30 CFR 551, 

Geological and Geophysical (G&G) 

Explorations of the Outer Continental 

Shelf. 

DATES: Submit written comments by 

October 21, 2014. 

ADDRESSES: Please send your comments 

on this ICR to the BOEM Information 

Collection Clearance Officer, Arlene 

Bajusz, Bureau of Ocean Energy 

Management, 381 Elden Street, HM–

arlene.bajusz@boem.gov (email); or 

703–787–1209 (fax). Please reference 

ICR 1010–0048 in your comment and 

include your name and return address. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Arlene Bajusz, Office of Policy, 

Regulations, and Analysis at (703) 787– 

1025 to request a copy of the ICR. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

OMB Control Number: 1010–0048. 

Title: 30 CFR 551, Geological and 

Geophysical (G&G) Explorations of the 

Outer Continental Shelf. 

Form: BOEM–0327, Requirements for 

G&G Explorations or Scientific Research 

on the OCS. 

Abstract: The Outer Continental Shelf 

(OCS) Lands Act, as amended (43 U.S.C. 

1331 et seq. and 43 U.S.C. 1801 et seq.), 

authorizes the Secretary of the Interior 

to prescribe rules and regulations to 

administer leasing of mineral resources 

on the OCS. The OCS Lands Act (43 

U.S.C. 1340) states that ‘‘any person 

authorized by the Secretary may 

conduct geological and geophysical 

explorations in the [O]uter Continental 

Shelf, which do not interfere with or 

endanger actual operations under any 

lease maintained or granted pursuant to 

this subchapter, and which are not 

unduly harmful to aquatic life in such 

area.’’ The section further requires that 

permits to conduct such activities may 

only be issued if it is determined that 

the applicant is qualified; the activities 

do not result in pollution or create 

hazardous or unsafe conditions; the 

activities do not unreasonably interfere 

with other uses of the area or disturb 

any site, structure, or object of historical 

or archaeological significance. 

Applicants for permits are required to 

submit form BOEM–0327 to provide the 

information necessary to evaluate their 

qualifications, and upon approval, 

respondents are issued a permit. 

The Independent Offices 

Appropriations Act (31 U.S.C. 9701), the 

Omnibus Appropriations Bill (Pub. L. 

104–133, 110 Stat. 1321, April 26, 

1996), and the OMB Circular A–25 

authorize Federal agencies to recover 

the full cost of services that confer 

special benefits. All G&G permits are 

subject to cost recovery, and BOEM 

regulations specify service fees for these 

requests. 

Regulations to carry out these 

responsibilities are contained in 30 CFR 

551 and are the subject of this 

information collection renewal. BOEM 

uses the information to ensure there is 

no environmental degradation, personal 

harm or unsafe operations and 

conditions, damage to historical or 

archaeological sites, or interference with 

other uses; to analyze and evaluate 

preliminary or planned drilling 

activities; to monitor progress and 

activities in the OCS; to acquire G&G 

data and information collected under a 

Federal permit offshore; and to 

determine eligibility for reimbursement 

from the government for certain costs. 

Information on the G&G characteristics 

of oil- and gas-bearing physiographic 

regions aids the Secretary in obtaining 

a proper balance among the potentials 

for environmental damage, the 

discovery of oil and gas, and associated 

impacts on affected coastal States. 

In this renewal, BOEM is updating 

form BOEM–0327 to clarify the types of 

copies being requested, delete incorrect 

language, make recommendations for 

faster processing, and update addresses. 

To respond to the number of questions 

BOEM receives from permittees on the 

form, BOEM is also clarifying wording, 

providing examples/tables to reduce 

confusion, and separating requirements 

by OCS Region to further assist 


tkelley on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES
49808 Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 163 / Friday, August 22, 2014 / Notices 

permittees. BOEM is not asking for more 

information, just outlining current 

requirements in more detail. We do not 

expect these improvements to change 

the 3-hour burden for the majority of 

permit applications, which are 

associated with G&G exploration in the 

Gulf of Mexico OCS Region. 

However, for applications in the 

Alaska OCS Region and Atlantic OCS, 

BOEM is adjusting the burden to be 

significantly higher (300 hours), not 

because of the form improvements, but 

because of the requirements to submit 

environmental information sufficient for 

the National Environmental Policy Act 

(NEPA) review about the effects of 

sound on marine mammals and other 

protected species. To acquire G&G data, 

companies need to (1) obtain a BOEM 

permit, (2) obtain an Incidental 

Harassment Authorization (IHA) from 

the National Marine Fisheries Service, 

and (3) coordinate their activities with 

the Department of Defense (DOD) and 

the National Aeronautics and Space 

Administration (NASA). Much of this 

work has already been done for the Gulf 

of Mexico OCS, where G&G activity has 

been ongoing for years. While 

prospective permittees must obtain the 

IHA and coordinate with DOD and 

NASA before BOEM issues a permit, the 

time or burden to fill out form BOEM– 

0327 and acquire the information for the 

form remains the same. However, in 

areas outside of the Gulf of Mexico OCS 

Region, BOEM is accounting for the 

total time companies will expend to 

compile and submit the necessary 

information to obtain the required 

authorizations to acquire a BOEM 

permit in these areas as well as 

coordinate with DOD/NASA. Therefore, 

the burden for applicants in the Alaska 

and Atlantic OCS areas to describe the 

environmental effects and proposed 

mitigations is estimated much higher. 

To complement the changes made in 

form BOEM–0327, BOEM is also 

separating the requirements in the 

BOEM-issued permits by OCS Region to 

further assist permittees. The actual 

permits are filled in by BOEM and do 

not incur a respondent hour burden. 

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 under 

regulations at 30 CFR 551. No items of 

a sensitive nature are collected. 

Responses are mandatory. 

Frequency: On occasion, annual, or as 

specified in permits. 

Description of Respondents: Potential 

respondents comprise Federal OCS oil, 

gas, and sulphur permittees or notice 

filers. 

Estimated Reporting and 

Recordkeeping Hour Burden: We 

estimate the burden for this collection to 

be about 9,876 hours. The following 

table details the individual components

[Investigation Nos. 701–TA–498 and 731– 

TA–1213 (Final)] 

Certain Steel Threaded Rod From India 

Determinations 

On the basis of the record 1 developed 

in the subject investigations, the United 

States International Trade Commission 

(Commission) determines,2 pursuant to 

sections 705(b) and 735(b) of the Tariff 

Act of 1930 (19 U.S.C. 1671d(b) and 19 

U.S.C. 1673d(b)) (the Act), that an 

industry in the United States is not 

materially injured or threatened with 

material injury, and the establishment of 

an industry in the United States is not 

materially retarded by reason of imports 

of certain steel threaded rod from India, 

provided for in subheading 7318.15.50 

of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of 

the United States, that have been found 

by the Department of Commerce 

(Commerce) to be sold in the United 

States at less than fair value (LTFV) and 

subsidized by the Government of India. 

Background 

The Commission instituted these 

investigations effective June 27, 2013, 

following receipt of a petition filed with 

the Commission and Commerce by All 

America Threaded Products Inc., 

Denver, Colorado; Bay Standard 

Manufacturing Inc., Brentwood, 

California; and Vulcan Threaded 

Products Inc., Pelham, Alabama. The 

final phase of the investigations was 

scheduled by the Commission following 

notification of a preliminary 

determinations by Commerce that 

imports of certain steel threaded rod 

from India were subsidized within the 

meaning of section 703(b) of the Act (19 

U.S.C. 1671b(b)) and dumped within the 

meaning of 733(b) of the Act (19 U.S.C. 

1673b(b)). Notice of the scheduling of 

the final phase of the Commission’s 

investigations and of a public hearing to 

be held in connection therewith was 

given by posting copies of the notice in 

the Office of the Secretary, U.S. 

International Trade Commission, 

Washington, DC, and by publishing the 

notice in the Federal Register on 

January 17, 2014 (79 FR 3245) and 

revised on May 2, 2014 (79 FR 25152). 

The hearing was held in Washington, 

DC, on March 20, 2014, and all persons 

who requested the opportunity were 

permitted to appear in person or by 

counsel. 

The Commission completed and filed 

its determinations in these 

investigations on August 18, 2014. The 

views of the Commission are contained 

in USITC Publication 4487 (August
