AGENCY: Minerals Management Service, Interior.
ACTION: Notice, request for comments.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA) of 1993
requires that agencies update and revise their strategic plans at least
every 3 years. GPRA also states that agencies must consult with the
Congress and solicit and consider the views and suggestions of other
parties that could be affected by, or are interested in, the agency's
plan during the plan's development. Minerals Management Service (MMS)
will revise its strategic plan this year, and would welcome comments
from interested parties. We will consider these comments while drafting
the revision to our strategic plan this summer.
MMS will provide several forums for its customers, stakeholders,
and other interested parties to provide input during the revision of
its strategic plan, including:
Commenters may input electronically through the MMS web
site presented in the Supplementary Information section.
Commenters may provide feedback with written
correspondence to the addresses in the Addresses section.
MMS may hold public consultation sessions (see
Supplementary Information).
DATES: You are requested to provide electronic and written comments no
later than June 1, 1999. You should submit your expressions of interest
in MMS holding public consultation sessions by May 7, 1999.
