Abstract: BSEE will use the 

information required by 30 CFR 282 to 

determine if lessees are complying with 

the regulations that implement the 

mining operations program for minerals 

other than oil, gas, and sulphur. 

Specifically, BSEE will use the 

information: 

• To ensure that operations for the 

production of minerals other than oil, 

gas, and sulphur in the OCS are 

conducted in a manner that will result 

in orderly resource recovery, 

development, and the protection of the 

human, marine, and coastal 

environments. 

• To ensure that adequate measures 

will be taken during operations to 

prevent waste, conserve the natural 

resources of the OCS, and to protect the 

environment, human life, and 

correlative rights. 

• To determine if suspensions of 

activities are in the national interest, to 

facilitate proper development of a lease 

including reasonable time to develop a 

mine and construct its supporting 

facilities, and to allow for the 

construction or negotiation for use of 

transportation facilities. 

• To identify and evaluate the 

cause(s) of a hazard(s) generating a 

suspension, the potential damage from a 

hazard(s) and the measures available to 

mitigate the potential for damage. 

• For technical evaluations that 

provide a basis for BSEE to make 

informed decisions to approve, 

disapprove, or require modification of 

the proposed activities.

Abstract: The regulations at 30 CFR 

250, subpart O, Well Control and 

Production Safety Training, concern 

training requirements for certain 

personnel working on the OCS and is 

the subject of this collection. This 

request also covers the related Notices 

to Lessees and Operators (NTLs) that 

BSEE issues to clarify, supplement, or 

provide additional guidance on some 

aspects of our regulations. 

BSEE uses the information collected 

under subpart O regulations to ensure 

that workers in the OCS are properly 

trained with the necessary skills to 

perform their jobs in a safe and 

pollution-free manner. 

In some instances, we may conduct 

oral interviews of offshore employees to 

evaluate the effectiveness of a 

company’s training program. The oral 

interviews are used to gauge how 

effectively the companies are 

implementing their own training 

program.
