stations and land borders. The DHS 

TRIP office is managed by TSA on 

behalf of DHS. In order for individuals 

to request redress, they are asked to 

provide identifying information as well 

as details of their travel experience. 

The Traveler Inquiry Form (TIF) is an 

online form that is used to collect 

requests for redress by the DHS TRIP 

office, which serves as a centralized 

intake office for traveler requests to have 

their personal information reviewed. 

DHS TRIP then passes the information 

to the relevant DHS component to 

process the request, as appropriate (e.g., 

DHS TRIP passes the form to the 

appropriate DHS office to initiate the 

Watch List Clearance Procedure). This 

collection serves to distinguish 

misidentified individuals from an actual 

individual on any watch list used by 

DHS, and this program helps streamline 

and expedite future check-in or border 

crossing experiences. 

DHS estimates completing the form, 

and gathering and submitting the 

information will take approximately one 

hour. The annual respondent 

population was derived from data 

compiled across all participating 

components (Transportation Security 

Administration (TSA), U.S. Customs 

and Border Protection (CBP), U.S. 

Citizenship and Immigration Services 

(CIS), U.S. Immigration and Customs 

Enforcement (ICE), U.S. Visitor and 

Immigration Status Indicator 

Technology (US–VISIT), DHS Office of 

Civil Rights and Civil Liberties (CRCL), 

DHS Privacy Office, along with the U.S. 

Department of State, Bureau of Consular 

Affairs (DoS)). Thus, the total estimated 

annual number of burden hours for 

passengers seeking redress, based on an 

estimated 32,495 annual respondents, is 

32,495 hours (32,495 × 1).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Title: 30 CFR 250, subpart L, Oil and 

Gas Production Measurement. 

OMB Control Number: 1010–0051. 

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 

(Secretary) to prescribe rules and 

regulations to administer leasing of the 

OCS. Such rules and regulations will 

apply to all operations conducted under 

a lease. Operations on the OCS must 

preserve, protect, and develop oil and 

natural gas resources in a manner that 

is consistent with the need to make such 

resources available to meet the Nation’s 

energy needs as rapidly as possible; to 

balance orderly energy resource 

development with protection of human, 

marine, and coastal environments; to 

ensure the public a fair and equitable

Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 96 / Wednesday, May 19, 2010 / Notices 28053 

return on the resources of the OCS; and 

to preserve and maintain free enterprise 

competition. The Federal Oil and Gas 

Royalty Management Act of 1982 (30 

U.S.C. 1701, et seq.) at section 

1712(b)(2) prescribes that an operator 

will ‘‘develop and comply with such 

minimum site security measures as the 

Secretary deems appropriate, to protect 

oil or gas produced or stored on a lease 

site or on the Outer Continental Shelf 

from theft.’’ Regulations at 30 CFR part 

250, subpart L, implement these 

statutory requirements. We use the 

information to ensure that the volumes 

of hydrocarbons produced are measured 

accurately, and royalties are paid on the 

proper volumes. Specifically, MMS 

needs the information to: 

• Determine if measurement 

equipment is properly installed, 

provides accurate measurement of 

production on which royalty is due, and 

is operating properly; 

• Obtain rates of production data in 

allocating the volumes of production 

measured at royalty sales meters, which 

can be examined during field 

inspections; 

• Ascertain if all removals of oil and 

condensate from the lease are reported; 

• Determine the amount of oil that 

was shipped when measurements are 

taken by gauging the tanks rather than 

being measured by a meter; 

• Ensure that the sales location is 

secure and production cannot be 

removed without the volumes being 

recorded; and 

• Review proving reports to verify 

that data on run tickets are calculated 

and reported accurately. 

The MMS will protect information 

from respondents considered 

proprietary under the Freedom of 

Information Act (5 U.S.C. 552) and its 

implementing regulations (43 CFR part 

2) and under regulations at 30 CFR 

250.197, Data and information to be 

made available to the public or for 

limited inspection, and 30 CFR part 252, 

OCS Oil and Gas Information Program. 

No items of a sensitive nature are 

collected. Responses are mandatory. 

Frequency: Varies by section, but 

primarily monthly, or on occasion. 

Description of Respondents: 

Respondents comprise Federal oil, gas 

and sulphur lessees and/or operators. 

Estimated Reporting and 

Recordkeeping Hour Burden: The 

estimated annual hour burden for this 

information collection is a total of 

32,957 hours. The following chart 

details the individual components and 

estimated hour burdens. 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.

$600,065 Non-Hour Cost Burdens. 

Estimated Reporting and 

Recordkeeping Non-Hour Cost Burden: 

We have identified two non-hour cost 

burdens, both of which are cost recovery 

fees. Note that the actual fee amounts 

are specified in 30 CFR 250.125, which 

provide a consolidated table of all the 

fees required under the 30 CFR part 250 

regulations. The non-hour cost burden 

total in this collection of information is 

an estimated $600,065. The cost 

burdens are for: (1) Filing fees 

associated with submitting requests for 

approval of simple applications 

(applications to temporarily reroute 

production (for a duration not to exceed 

6 months); production tests prior to 

pipeline construction; departures 

related to meter proving, well testing, or 

sampling frequency ($1,271 per 

application)) or, (2) submitting a request 

for approval of a complex application 

(creation of new facility measurement 

points (FMPs); association of leases or 

units with existing FMPs; inclusion of 

production from additional structures; 

meter updates which add buyback gas 

meters or pigging meters; other 

applications which request deviations 

from the approved allocation 

procedures ($3,760 per application)). 

We have not identified any other nonhour paperwork cost burdens associated 

with this collection of information. 

Public Disclosure Statement: The PRA 

(44 U.S.C. 3501, et seq.) provides that an 

agency may not conduct or sponsor a 

collection of information unless it 

displays a currently valid OMB control 

number. Until OMB approves a 

collection of information, you are not 

obligated to respond. 

Comments: Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of 

the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501, et seq.) 

requires each agency ‘‘* * * to provide 

notice * * * and otherwise consult 

with members of the public and affected 

agencies concerning each proposed 

collection of information * * *’’ 

Agencies must specifically solicit 

comments to: (a) Evaluate whether the 

proposed collection of information is 

necessary for the agency to perform its 

duties, including whether the 

information is useful; (b) evaluate the 

accuracy of the agency’s estimate of the 

burden of the proposed collection of 

information; (c) enhance the quality, 

usefulness, and clarity of the 

information to be collected; and (d) 

minimize the burden on the 

respondents, including the use of 

automated collection techniques or 

other forms of information technology. 

To comply with the public 

consultation process, on November 3, 

2009, we published a Federal Register 

notice (74 FR 56858) announcing that 

we would submit this ICR to OMB for 

approval. The notice provided the 

required 60-day comment period. In 

addition, § 250.199 provides the OMB 

control number for the information 

collection requirements imposed by the 

30 CFR 250 regulations. The regulation 

also informs the public that they may 

comment at any time on the collections 

of information and provides the address 

to which they should send comments. 

We have received no comments in 

response to these efforts. 

If you wish to comment in response 

to this notice, you may send your 

comments to the offices listed under the 

ADDRESSES section of this notice. The 

OMB has up to 60 days to approve or 

disapprove the information collection 

but may respond after 30 days. 

Therefore, to ensure maximum 

consideration, OMB should receive 

public comments by June 18, 2010. 

Public Availability of Comments: 

Before including your address, phone 

number, email address, or other 

personal identifying information in your 

comment, you should be aware that 

your entire comment—including your 

personal identifying information—may 

be made publicly available at any time. 

While you can ask us in your comment 

to withhold your personal identifying 

information from public review, we 

cannot guarantee that we will be able to 

do so.

and Riverside Counties, CA; Notice of 

Intent To Prepare Environmental 

Impact Statement 

SUMMARY: Pursuant to the National 

Environmental Policy Act of 1969, 42 

U.S.C. 4332(C), the National Park 

Service is updating the General 

Management Plan (GMP) for Joshua Tree 

National Park, California. The new GMP 

will update the overall direction for the 

park approved in 1995, refining goals 

and objectives for managing the park 

over the next 15 to 20 years. The GMP 

will prescribe desired resource 

conditions and visitor experiences that 

are to be achieved and maintained 

throughout the park based on such 

factors as the park’s purpose, 

significance, special mandates and the 

body of laws and policies directing park 

management and resource analysis, 

other designations such as 

establishment of 594,502 acres by 

Congress as Wilderness, and the 

spectrum of public expectations and 

concerns. The GMP also will outline the 

kinds of resource management 

activities, visitor activities, and 

developments that would be appropriate 

and sustainable in the park in the 

future. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: A range of 

reasonable alternatives for managing the 

park will be developed by the National 

Park Service (NPS) through this 

conservation planning and 

environmental impact analysis process, 

and which will include, at a minimum, 

no-action and agency-preferred 

alternatives. Major issues the GMP will 

address include changes in visitor use 

patterns, adequacy and sustainability of 

existing visitor facilities and park 

operations, management of natural and 

cultural resources, collaboration and 

partnership opportunities, Wilderness 

stewardship goals, evaluation of park 

boundaries, and pro-active planning in 

response to climate change. The 

environmental impact statement (EIS) 

will evaluate the potential 

environmental consequences of the
