of Justice Statistics (BJS) has submitted
the following information collection
request to the Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) for review and approval
in accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995. The proposed
information collection is published to
obtain comments from the public and
affected agencies. Comments are
encouraged and will be accepted for 60
days until July 8, 2005.
If you have comments, especially on
the estimated public burden or
associated response time, suggestions,

Statistician, Bureau of Justice Statistics,
Office of Justice Programs, Department
of Justice, 810 7th Street NW.,
Washington, DC 20531, or facsimile

Written comments and suggestions
from the public and affected agencies
concerning the proposed collection of
information are encouraged. Your
comments should address one or more
of the following four points:
—Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the

functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility;
—Evaluate the accuracy of the agencies
estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
—Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; 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:
(1) Type of information collection:
New collection.
(2) Title of the Form/Collection:
Supplemental Victimization Survey
(SVS).
(3) Agency form number, if any, and
the applicable component of the
department sponsoring the collection:
SVS–1. Department of Justice, Office of
Justice Programs, Bureau of Justice
Statistics.
(4) Affected public who will be asked
or required to respond, as well as a brief
abstract: Primary: Individuals or
Households. Persons 18 years or older
in 658 Primary Sampling Units (PSUs)
in the United States. The Supplemental
Victimization Survey (SVS) to the
National Crime Victimization Survey
collects, analyzes, publishes, and
disseminates statistics on the nature and
consequences of a series of harassing or
unwanted contacts or behaviors directed
toward respondents that made them feel
fearful, concerned, angry, or annoyed,
commonly known as ‘‘stalking’’.
(5) An estimate of the total number of
respondents and the amount of time
estimated for an average respondent to
respond/reply: Approximately 86,850
persons 18 years of age or older will
complete an SVS interview. The
majority of respondents, approximately
85,982, will be administered only the
screening portion of the SVS which are
designed to filter out those people who
have not been victims of repetitive
harassing or unwanted contacts and
therefore are not eligible to continue
with the remainder of the supplement
questions. We estimate the average
length of the SVS interview for these
individuals will be three minutes. The
complement of this group of
respondents is those who had such
contacts. Due to the rarity of this type
of crime, we expect only about 1 percent
PO 00000
Frm 00089
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
or 868 of the respondents to report being
a victim of this type of behavior within
the 12 months preceding the interview.
We estimate each of these interviews
will take 0.167 hours (10 minutes) to
complete.
(6) An estimate of the total public
burden (in hours) associated with the
collection: The total respondent burden
is approximately 4,444 hours.
