Oil, Gas and Sulfur Operations in the Outer Continental Shelf--
Adjustment of Service Fees
AGENCY: Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement (BSEE),
Interior.
ACTION: Direct final rule.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: This final rule amends BSEE regulations to update service fees
that cover BSEE's cost of processing and filing certain documents
relating to its oil and gas resources program to account for inflation
from 2013 through 2021. BSEE also changes its website link used by
operators to make payments for service fees in this rule.
DATES: This final rule is effective April 6, 2022. The incorporation by
reference of certain publications listed in this rule was approved by
the Director as of November 7, 2016.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Eric Modrow, Chief, Office of Budget,
703-787-1694 or Kirk Malstrom, Chief, Regulations and Standards Branch,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. BSEE Statutory and Regulatory Authority
BSEE derives its authority principally from the Outer Continental
Shelf Lands Act (OCSLA) (43 U.S.C. 1331-1356(a)). Congress enacted
OCSLA in 1953, establishing Federal control over the Outer Continental
Shelf (OCS) and authorizing the Secretary of the Interior (Secretary)
to regulate oil and gas exploration, development, and production
operations on the OCS. The Secretary has authorized BSEE to perform
certain of these functions (30 CFR 250.101).
The BSEE regulatory program is comprehensive and provides for
regulatory oversight over a wide range of facilities and activities
including drilling, completion, workover, production, pipeline, and
decommissioning operations. To carry out its responsibilities, BSEE
develops and enforces regulations to enhance safety and environmental
protection for offshore exploration and development of oil and natural
gas on the OCS and to reflect advancements in technology and new
information. BSEE also conducts onsite inspections to ensure compliance
with regulations, lease terms, and approved plans and permits, and
operates an oil spill response planning and preparedness program.
Detailed information concerning BSEE's regulations and guidance to the
offshore industry may be found on BSEE's website at https://www.bsee.gov/what-we-do/offshore-regulatory-programs/regulations-standards.
II. Background
BSEE has authority to recover the full cost of services that confer
special benefits under the Independent Offices Appropriation Act (31
U.S.C. 9701), the Fiscal Year 1996 Omnibus Appropriations Bill (Pub. L.
104-134, 110 Stat. 1321, April 26, 1996), and Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) Circular A-25. BSEE is required to charge the full cost
for federal services that provide special benefits or privileges to an
identifiable non-Federal recipient above and beyond those which accrue
to the public at large. The regulations at 30 CFR 250.125(a) provide
that BSEE will periodically adjust the fees set forth in that provision
for inflation according to changes in the Implicit Price Deflator for
Gross Domestic Product (IPD-GDP), which is published quarterly by the
Department of Commerce, Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA).
The regulation at 30 CFR 250.126(a) also requires payments of fees
for services to be filed electronically. The BSEE website currently
enables operators to make electronic payments; this rule clarifies how
to access a Fees for Services web page directly without scrolling
through the website. This informational change to the existing URL
identified in the regulation simplifies the process for operators to
make electronic payments for fees at https://www.bsee.gov/who-we-are/working-with-us/Fees-for-Services.
BSEE has not implemented inflation-based adjustments for service
fees since 2013. This rulemaking will prevent further loss of revenue
from recipients
[[Page 19800]]
of government services in accord with Congress' intent as expressed in
authorities cited above. The highest adjustment, in dollar terms, is to
the fee for Platform Application--Installation--Under the Platform
Verification Program, which will increase by $3,710 from a previous
level of $22,734. BSEE considers this dollar amount insignificant as
compared to the considerable operational costs and liability risks
associated with activities on the OCS.
BSEE charges cost recovery fees for 31 separate services it
provides to non-Federal recipients, as set out in 30 CFR 250.125(a).
BSEE published a proposed rule to modify many of these cost recovery
fees on November 17, 2016 (81 FR 81033), ``Adjustments to Cost Recovery
Fees Relating to the Regulation of Oil, Gas, and Sulfur Activities on
the Outer Continental Shelf.'' Following an extension of the comment
period on January 5, 2017 (82 FR 1284), BSEE received public comments
until February 16, 2017. Ultimately, the Department did not publish a
final rule associated with the 2016 Notice of Proposed Rulemaking
(NPRM). This direct final rule does not examine issues raised in the
2016 NPRM; instead, this rule focuses only on inflation-based
adjustments to service fees. BSEE may pursue a separate, future
rulemaking to adjust these fees based on a recalculation of actual
agency costs.
The Department finds that good cause exists under the
Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. 553(b)(B)) to implement this
final rule for inflation adjustments without prior public notice and
comment. BSEE provided the public with an opportunity to comment on the
adjustment procedure used in this rule during the public comment period
when it promulgated 30 CFR 250.125(a) at 70 FR 49875 (Aug. 25, 2005),
as amended at 71 FR 40909 (July 19, 2006); 72 FR 25199 (May 4, 2007);
73 FR 49946 (Aug. 25, 2008); 75 FR 20288 (Apr. 19, 2010); and 78 FR
60213 (October. 1, 2013) (which was also a direct final rule).\1\ The
calculation of these adjustments is based on the change in the BEA IPD-
GDP, as dictated by existing regulation. The amount of the adjustment
is not within BSEE's discretion where Congress prescribed that ``each
service or thing of value provided by an agency . . . is to be self-
sustaining to the extent possible.'' 31 U.S.C. 9701(a). Accordingly,
because the rule merely implements existing regulatory procedures
established through prior rulemakings, employing preestablished
benchmarks outside the Department's discretion or control, public
notice and comment procedures are unnecessary.

2016), and 81 FR 61916 (Sept. 7, 2016).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
III. Discussion of Final Rule
In this direct final rule, BSEE is adjusting cost recovery service
fees to account for inflation in accordance with 30 CFR 250.125(a).
These cost recovery service fees were last updated on October 1, 2013,
when BSEE published a final rule on ``Oil and Gas and Sulfur Operations
in the Outer Continental Shelf--Adjustment of Service Fees'' in the
Federal Register (78 FR 60213). The 2013 update included fee
adjustments to account for inflation through the year 2012. This final
rule is based on the change in the IPD-GDP from 2013 through 2021, thus
reflecting the rate of inflation over 9 years.
The inflation rate between any 2 years is calculated as the
percentage difference between the measure of the level of prices for a
designated year (e.g., 2021) and some previous year (e.g., 2013) of all
new, domestically produced, final goods and services in the economy, as
contained in the BEA Table 1.1.9, IPD-GDP available at http://www.bea.gov/iTable/index_nipa.cfm. The BEA Table 1.1.9 IPD-GDP shows a
percentage difference between the measure of the level of prices
between 2021 and 2013 of 16.32 percent. The 2022 cost recovery service
fees are calculated by increasing the 2013 cost recovery service fee
value by 16.32 percent. The calculated value is rounded to the nearest
dollar to establish the 2022 cost recovery service fee. Only the
service fees at 30 CFR 250.125(a) will change.
While BEA may revise the inflation rate in the future, BSEE will
retain this published cost recovery service fee schedule until BSEE
publishes an updated cost recovery service fee schedule in the Federal
Register.
The following table lists the types of services BSEE performs when
it receives a plan, application, permit, or other request; the
associated regulatory citation for each type of request; the existing
and proposed fee; and the acceptable payment type for each service,
which are credit card and electronic check through the Automated
Clearing House (ACH-debit). Because the current U.S. Treasury limit on
credit card payments is $24,999.99, an ACH-debit must be used for
payments of $25,000 or more. The following page on the BSEE website
provides information to operators on how to pay the service fees in 30
CFR 250.125(a): https://www.bsee.gov/who-we-are/working-with-us/Fees-for-Services.

Procedural Matters
Regulatory Planning and Review (Executive Order 12866)
This rule is not significant under Executive Order (E.O.) 12866.
1. These amendments are administrative and procedural. This rule
will not have an effect of $100 million or more on the economy. It will
not adversely affect in a material way the economy, productivity,
competition, jobs, the environment, public health or safety, or State,
local, or tribal governments or communities. A cost-benefit and
economic analysis is not required.
2. This rule will not create a serious inconsistency or otherwise
interfere with an action taken or planned by another agency.
3. This rule will not alter the budgetary effects of entitlements,
grants, user fees, or loan programs or the rights or obligations of
their recipients.
4. This rule does not raise novel legal or policy issues.
Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act
This rule is not a major rule under the Small Business Regulatory
Enforcement Fairness Act (5 U.S.C. 801 et seq.). This rule:
1. Will not have an annual effect on the economy of $100 million or
more.
2. Will not cause a major increase in costs or prices for
consumers, individual industries, Federal, State, or local government
agencies, or geographic regions.
3. Will not have significant adverse effects on competition,
employment, investment, productivity, innovation, or the ability of
U.S.-based enterprises to compete with foreign-based enterprises. The
requirements will apply to all entities operating on the OCS.
Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995
This rule will not impose an unfunded mandate on State, local, or
tribal governments or the private sector of more than $100 million per
year. The rule will not have a significant or unique effect on State,
local, or tribal governments or the private sector. A statement
containing the information required by the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act
(2 U.S.C. 1501 et seq.) is not required.
Takings Implication Assessment (E.O. 12630)
Under E.O. 12630, the rule does not have significant takings
implications. The rulemaking is not a governmental action capable of
interfering with constitutionally protected property rights. A Takings
Implication Assessment is not required.
Federalism (E.O. 13132)
Under the criteria in E.O. 13132, this rulemaking does not have
federalism implications. This rule will not substantially and directly
affect the relationship between the Federal and State governments. To
the extent that State and local governments have a role in OCS
activities, this rule will not affect that role. A federalism
assessment is not required.
Civil Justice Reform (E.O. 12988)
This rule complies with the requirements of E.O. 12988.
Specifically, this rule:
1. Meets the criteria of section 3(a) requiring that all
regulations be reviewed to eliminate errors and ambiguity and be
written to minimize litigation; and
2. Meets the criteria of section 3(b)(2) requiring that all
regulations be written in clear language and contain clear legal
standards.
Consultation With Indian Tribes (E.O. 13175)
The Department of the Interior strives to strengthen its
government-to-government relationship with Indian Tribes through a
commitment to consultation with Indian Tribes and recognition of their
right to self-governance and tribal sovereignty. We have evaluated this
rule under the Department of the Interior's consultation policy, under
Departmental Manual Part 512 Chapters 4 and 5, and under the criteria
in E.O. 13175. We have determined that it has no substantial direct
effects on Federally recognized Indian Tribes or Alaska Native Claims
Settlement Act (ANCSA) Corporations, and that consultation under the
Department of the Interior's tribal and ANCSA consultation policies is
not required.
Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) of 1995
This rule does not contain new information collection requirements
and a submission under the PRA is not required. Therefore, an
information collection request is not being submitted to OMB for review
and approval under the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.).
National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA)
This rule does not constitute a major Federal action significantly
affecting the quality of the human environment. The BSEE has analyzed
this rule under the criteria of NEPA and DOI's regulations implementing
NEPA. This rule meets the criteria set forth at 43 CFR 46.210(i) for a
Departmental Categorical Exclusion in that this rule is ``of an
administrative, financial, legal, technical, or procedural nature . .
.'' Further, BSEE has analyzed this rule to determine if it meets any
of the extraordinary circumstances that would nevertheless require
preparation of an environmental assessment or an environmental impact
statement, as set forth in 43 CFR 46.215, and concluded that this rule
does not meet any of the criteria for extraordinary circumstances.
Data Quality Act
In developing this rule, we did not conduct or use a study,
experiment, or survey requiring peer review under the Data Quality Act
(Pub. L. 106-554, app. C section 515, 114 Stat. 2763, 2763A-153-154).
Effects on the Nation's Energy Supply (E.O. 13211)
This rule is not a significant energy action under the definition
in E.O. 13211. Therefore, a Statement of Energy Effects is not
required.
Incorporation by Reference (1 CFR Part 51)
The Director of the Federal Register previously approved the
following material for incorporation by reference into the section
where it appears in this rule: API RP 14C, Recommended Practice for
Analysis, Design, Installation, and Testing of Basic Surface Safety
Systems for Offshore Production Platforms, Seventh Edition, March 2001,
