                public and affected agencies concerning the proposed collection of

                the following four points:
                --Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is necessary
                for the proper performance of the functions of the FBI, including
                whether the information will have practical utility;
                --Evaluate the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden of the
                proposed collection of information, including the validity of the
                methodology and assumptions used;
                --Evaluate whether, and if so, how the quality, utility, and clarity of
                the information to be collected can be enhanced; and
                --Minimize the burden of the collection of information on those who are
                to respond, including through the use of appropriate automated,
                electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or
                other forms of information technology (e.g., permitting electronic
                submission of responses).
                Overview of This Information Collection
                 1. Type of Information Collection: Extension of a currently-
                approved collection.
                 2. The Title of the Form/Collection: Supplementary Homicide Report.
                 3. The agency form number, if any, and the applicable component of
                the Department sponsoring the collection: The form number is 1-704. The
                applicable component within the DOJ is the CJIS Division in the FBI.
                 4. Affected public who will be asked or required to respond, as
                well as a brief abstract: Primary: Federal, state, local, and tribal
                law enforcement agencies (LEAs). Abstract: Under Title 28, United
                States Code, Section 534(a) and (c), this collection requests homicide
                data from respondents in order for the FBI Uniform Crime Reporting
                (UCR) Program to serve as the national clearinghouse for the collection
                and dissemination of homicide and other crime-related data and to
                publish these statistics in Crime in the United States. The two-sided
                SHR form collects details about all murders and nonnegligent
                manslaughters (including justifiable homicides) and negligent
                [[Page 45925]]
                manslaughters. The details include the reporting agency; month and
                year; situation; age, sex, race, and ethnicity of the victim(s) and the
                offender(s); weapon type used; relationship of the victim(s) to the
                offender(s); and circumstance(s) surrounding the incident (e.g.,
                argument, robbery, gang-related), if known.
                 5. An estimate of the total number of respondents and the amount of
                time estimated for an average respondent to respond: The estimated
                number of LEAs submitting SHR data to the UCR Program monthly via the
                Summary Reporting System is 9,376. Annually, those LEAs submit a total
                of 112,512 responses (9,376 LEAs x 12 months = 112,512 responses
                annually). The estimated time it takes for an average respondent to
                respond is nine minutes. Therefore, the estimated annual public burden
                associated with the SHR data collection is 16,877 hours [(112,512
                annual responses x 9 minutes per response)/60 minutes per hour =
                16.876.8 total annual hours].
