Abstract:
ONRR uses the collected information to ensure that royalties are reported timely and paid appropriately and are based on correct product valuation. ONRR, as well as other Federal Government, State, and Tribal entities, uses the collected information for audit purposes and for evaluation of the reasonableness of product valuation or of allowance claims submitted by lessees. The determination of the appropriate product value or allowance rate directly affects the royalties due. Failure to collect such data would prevent the Secretary from accomplishing statutory and trust responsibilities.

Short Statement:
The current OMB-approved inventory is 3,884 annual burden hours. Our current estimate of the burden hours is 3,871, resulting in a total adjustment decrease of -13 burden hours. There is a program change due to agency discretion of +6 burden hours [adding regulatory sections] for this information collection due to regulatory revisions from the re-instituted 2016 Valuation Rule by a court order. Also, we analyzed our current data and found that there are other changes, for this ICR, resulting in an adjustment decrease of -19 burden hours; these adjustments are based on regulatory revisions in the 2016 Valuation Rule, which adjusted burden hours for previous regulatory sections in title 30 CFR, chapter XII.
