Abstract: This ICR covers information collection requirements in
the final Federal Implementation Plan (FIP) for Oil and Natural Gas
Well Production Facilities; Fort Berthold Indian Reservation (Mandan,
Hidatsa, and Arikara Nation), North Dakota (40 CFR part 49, subpart K,
Sec. Sec. 49.4161 through 49.4168), herein referred to as the FBIR
FIP. In general, owners or operators are required to: (1) conduct
certain monitoring; (2) keep specific records to be made available at
the EPA's request; and (3) to prepare and submit an annual report (40
CFR part 49, subpart K, Sec. Sec. 49.4166 through 49.4168). These
records and reports are necessary for the EPA Administrator (or the
Tribal agency if delegated), for example, to: (1) confirm compliance
status of stationary sources; (2) identify any stationary sources not
subject to the requirements and identify stationary sources subject to
the regulations; and (3) ensure that the stationary source control
requirements are being achieved. All information submitted to us
pursuant to the recordkeeping and reporting requirements for which a
claim of confidentiality is made is safeguarded according to the agency
policies set forth in 40 CFR part 2, subpart B.
Form numbers: None.
Respondents/affected entities: Owners or operators of oil and
natural gas well production facilities on the Fort Berthold Indian
Reservation (Mandan, Hidatsa, and Arikara Nation), North Dakota.
Respondent's obligation to respond: Mandatory (42 U.S.C. 7414).
Estimated number of respondents: 9,007 (total).
Frequency of response: Annually.
Total estimated burden: 137,279 hours (per year). Burden is defined
at 5 CFR 1320.03(b).
Total estimated cost: $41,056,708 (per year), which includes
$40,772,356 annualized capital and operation and maintenance costs.
Changes in the estimates: There is an average increase of 25,279
hours in the total estimated respondent burden compared with the ICR
currently approved by OMB. This increase is due to anticipated industry
growth projected to occur over the next 3-year period of this ICR.

Director, Regulatory Support Division.
