ePermits Initiative 

We are exploring the feasibility of 

using the Service’s new ‘‘ePermits’’ 

initiative, an automated permit 

application system that will allow the 

agency to move towards a streamlined 

permitting process to reduce public 

burden. The ePermits platform would 

automate the five forms associated with 

this proposed information collection. 

Public burden reduction is a priority for 

the Service, the Assistant Secretary for 

Fish and Wildlife and Parks, and senior 

leadership at the Department of the 

Interior. The intent of the ePermits 

initiative is to fully automate the 

permitting and reporting process to 

improve the customer experience and to 

reduce time burden on respondents. 

This system enhances the user 

experience by allowing users to enter 

data from any device that has internet 

access, including personal computers, 

tablets, and smartphones. It will also 

link the permit applicant to the Pay.gov 

system for payment of any associated 

fees. 

Title of Collection: Online Program 

Management System for Carbon 

Dioxide-Carp. 

OMB Control Number: 1018–0182. 

Form Numbers: Forms 3–2130, 3– 

2163, 3–2164, 3–2191, and 3–2541.

Burden Hours: 10. 

Respondent’s Obligation: Required to 

obtain or retain a benefit.

Total Estimated Annual Nonhour 

Burden Cost: $45,000.00. We estimate

Maintenance fee of $400, a State 

registration fee of $252; and an 

administrative fee of $848 (totaling 

$15,000 ($1,500 × 10 respondents)). 

Each respondent will also incur a onetime startup cost of $3,000 (totaling 

$30,000 ($3,000 × 10 respondents)). 

An agency may not conduct or 

sponsor and a person is not required to

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In 

accordance with the PRA, 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 provides 

the requested data in the desired format. 

A Federal Register notice with a 60- 

day public comment period soliciting 

comments on this collection of 

information was published on 

September 28, 2023 (88 FR 66883). One 

comment was received from the Bureau 

of Economic Analysis supporting the 

collection of this data as nationally 

important. 

We are again soliciting comments on 

the proposed ICR that is described 

below. We are especially interested in 

public comments addressing the 

following issues: (1) is the collection 

necessary to the proper functions of the 

USGS minerals information mission; (2) 

will this information be processed and 

used in a timely manner; (3) is the 

estimate of burden accurate; (4) how the 

USGS might enhance the quality, utility, 

and clarity of the information to be 

collected; and (5) how the USGS might 

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. Before including your 

address, phone number, email address, 

or other personal identifiable 

information (PII) in your comment, you 

should be aware that your entire 

comment—including your PII—may be 

made publicly available at any time. 

While you can ask us in your comment 

to withhold your PII from public review, 

we cannot guarantee that we will be 

able to do so.
