34258 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 108 / Monday, June 6, 2022 / Notices 

(3) Type of Request: Three-year 

extension with changes; revision of the 

currently approved Form EIA–23L; 

extension without changes of Form 

EIA–64A; and continued suspension of 

collection of the currently approved 

Form EIA–23S; 

(4) Purpose: In response to Public Law 

95–91 Section 657, estimates of U.S. oil 

and gas reserves are to be reported 

annually. Many U.S. government 

agencies have an interest in proved oil 

and gas reserves and the quality, 

reliability, and usefulness of reserves 

estimates. Among these are the U.S. 

Energy Information Administration 

(EIA), Department of Energy; Bureau of 

Ocean Energy Management (BOEM), 

Department of Interior; Internal Revenue 

Service (IRS), Department of the 

Treasury; and the Securities and 

Exchange Commission (SEC). Each of 

these organizations has specific 

purposes for collecting, using, or 

estimating proved reserves. EIA has a 

congressional mandate to provide 

accurate annual estimates of U.S. 

proved crude oil, natural gas, and 

natural gas liquids reserves, and EIA 

presents annual reserves data in EIA 

reports to meet this requirement. The 

BOEM maintains estimates of proved 

reserves to carry out their 

responsibilities in leasing, collecting 

royalty payments, and regulating the 

activities of oil and gas companies on 

Federal lands and water. Accurate 

reserve estimates are important, as the 

BOEM is second only to the IRS in 

generating Federal revenue. For the IRS, 

proved reserves and occasionally 

probable reserves are an essential 

component of calculating taxes for 

companies owning or producing oil and 

gas. The SEC requires publicly traded 

petroleum companies to annually file a 

reserves statement as part of their 10–K 

filing. The basic purpose of the 10–K 

filing is to provide public investors with 

a clear and reliable financial basis to 

assess the relative value, as a financial 

asset, of a company’s reserves, 

especially in comparison to other 

similar oil and gas companies. The 

Government also uses the resulting 

information to develop national and 

regional estimates of proved reserves of 

domestic crude oil and natural gas to 

facilitate national energy policy 

decisions. These estimates are essential 

to the development, implementation, 

and evaluation of energy policy and 

legislation. Data are used directly in EIA 

Web reports concerning U.S. crude oil 

and natural gas reserves, and are 

incorporated into a number of other 

Web reports and analyses; 

(4a) Changes to Information 

Collection: EIA proposes to make the 

following changes to Form EIA–23L, 

Annual Report of Domestic Oil and Gas 

Reserves: 

• Schedule A of Form EIA–23L, 

which collected annual proved reserves 

and production data for four fuel types 

(crude oil, associated-dissolved natural 

gas, non-associated natural gas, and 

lease condensate) on a county-level 

basis will be changed to collect annual 

proved reserves and production data for 

two fuel types (crude oil plus lease 

condensate, and total natural gas) on a 

state/state subdivision-level basis. 

• Schedule A of Form EIA–23L, 

which used three reservoir type codes 

(C—conventional, LP—low 

permeability, and SH—shale) to 

subdivide county-level proved reserves 

data within Schedule A will be changed 

to two separate report parts: Parts 4 and 

5. 

Æ Part 4 will list the combined total 

of annual proved reserves and 

production data on a state- and state 

subdivision-level basis 

Æ Part 5 will separately list that 

portion of annual proved reserves and 

production sourced only from shale 

reservoirs on a state- and state 

subdivision-level basis. 

• A fillable spreadsheet version of the 

new Form EIA–23L will replace the 

current PDF version of Form EIA–23L 

and its E-file software (the Reserves 

Information Gathering System (RIGS). 

Comments and Feedback are 

requested on these proposed changes to 

Form EIA–23L; 

(5) Annual Estimated Number of 

Respondents: Forms EIA–23L/23S/64A: 

1,100; 

(6) Annual Estimated Number of 

Total Responses: Forms EIA–23L/23S/ 

64A: 1,100; 

(7) Annual Estimated Number of 

Burden Hours: 19,100 hours; 

Form EIA–23L Annual Survey of 

Domestic Oil and Gas Reserves, State/ 

State Subdivision report: 31 hours 

average per response (500 operators): 

15,500 hours total. 

Form EIA–23S Annual Survey of 

Domestic Oil and Gas Reserves, 

Summary Level Report: 0 hours 

(Currently suspended). 

Form EIA–64A Annual Report of the 

Origin of Natural Gas Liquids 

Production: 6 hours (600 natural gas 

plant operators): 3,600 hours total. 

(8) Annual Estimated Reporting and 

Recordkeeping Cost Burden: Forms 

EIA–23L/23S/64A: EIA estimates that 

there are no capital and start-up costs 

associated with this data collection. The 

information is maintained in the normal 

course of business. The cost of burden 

hours to the respondents is estimated to 

be $1,592,558 (19,100 burden hours 

times $83.38 per hour). Therefore, other 

than the cost of burden hours, EIA 

estimates that there are no additional 

costs for generating, maintaining and 

providing the information.
