The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) regulations at 5 CFR 1320, which implement provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (Pub.

This notice identifies the information collection that OSM will be submitting to OMB for extension. This collection is contained in 30 CFR Part 874.
OSM has revised burden estimates, where appropriate, to reflect current reporting levels or adjustments based on reestimates of burden or number of respondents. OSM will request a 3-year term of approval for this information collection activity.

A summary of the public comments will accompany OSM's submission of the information collection request to OMB.
