Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 43 / Monday, March 8, 2021 / Notices development on Federal and Indian lands and the Outer Continental Shelf OCS. Under various laws, the Secretarys responsibilities include maintaining a comprehensive inspection, collection, and fiscal and production accounting and auditing system that provides the capability to:
1 Accurately determine mineral royalties, interest, and other payments owed, 2 collect and account for such amounts in a timely manner, and 3
disburse the funds collected. ONRR
performs these mineral revenue management functions for the Secretary.
Laws pertaining to mineral leases on Federal and Indian lands are posted at http www.onrr.gov/Laws_R_D/
PubLaws/default.htm.
a General Information: ONRR
collects, audits, and disburses royalties, interest, and other payments owed by lessees on minerals produced from Federal and Indian lands. If a lessee overpays the amount due on minerals produced from Federal lands, it may request a refund from ONRR. If a lessee overpays the amount due on minerals produced from tribal lands, it may, with the tribes permission, recoup the overpayment against other royalties or other revenues owed in that month under other leases for which that tribe is the lessor. If a lessee fails to pay or underpays an amount it owes on Federal or Indian mineral production, it generally must pay interest on the underpayment from the date the payment was due. For royalties and other amounts owed on oil and gas produced from Federal lands, the Federal Oil and Gas Royalty Management Act FOGRMA, 30 U.S.C.
1701 et seq. permits a lessee to designate a designee for its payment obligations.
b Information Collections: This ICR
covers certain information required pursuant to FOGRMA and 30 CFR 1218
for 1 cross-lease netting in the calculation of late-payment interest; 2
a lessees designation of designee for payment obligations; 3 tribal permission for recoupment on Indian oil and gas leases; and 4 refund requests for overpayments made to ONRR.
1 Cross-Lease Netting in the Calculation of Late-Payment Interest:
Pursuant to 30 CFR 1218.42b, if certain conditions are met, royalties attributed to production from a lease or leases which should have been attributed to production from a different lease or leases may be offset to determine whether and to what extent an underpayment exists on which interest is due . . . . ONRR calls this process cross-lease netting. To determine whether a lessee is entitled to

1218.42b. This information is necessary for ONRR to calculate the correct interest amount.
2 Designation of Designee for Payment Obligations: FOGRMA allows a lessee to notify the Secretary in writing of its designation of a person to make all or part of the payments due under a lease on the lessees behalf . . . in which event said designated person may, in its own name, pay, offset or credit monies, make adjustments, request and receive refunds and submit reports with respect to payments required by the lessee. See 30 U.S.C.
1712a. ONRR created form ONRR
4425, Designation Form for Royalty Payment Responsibility, for lessees to notify it of such designation. ONRR
requires the information required in this form to ensure proper mineral revenue collection.
