those program enrollees agreeing to participate in the evaluation receive a Baseline interview.
estimate is an added burden proportion which is an adjustment reflecting the extent to which programs typically already collect the data
items. The formula for calculating the proportion of added burden is: total number of items in the standard instrument, minus the number of core
items currently included, divided by the total number of items in the standard instrument. For the TCE Initiative’s interviews the estimates were
calculated as follows: For the Baseline interview the burden estimate = 165 times 0.64 (the proportion of added burden) = 106. For the 6-Month
interview the burden estimate = 135 times 0.73 (the proportion of added burden) = 99. For the 12-Month interview the burden estimate = 105
times 0.72 (the proportion of added burden) = 76.
3 The number of responses per respondent for the Events Tracking depends on the design of the jail diversion program and can range from a
single screening for eligibility to four separate screenings; here 2 responses represents the average number of responses per respondent based
on the experience of the previous grantees.
4 For the Person Tracking program the burden estimate was calculated as follows: 30 times 0.65 (the proportion of added burden) = 20 (see
Footnote 2 above for more information about the burden proportion).
5 Record management forms (Service Use and Arrest) are only completed for those evaluation participants who receive both a Baseline interview and at least one follow-up (6- and/or 12-month) interview.

The averages for the three years of
evaluations are 988 responses, 26,894
total responses, and 1,373 hours of
burden.

AGENCY:
Notice and request for
comments.
ACTION:
SUMMARY: The Federal Emergency
Management Agency (FEMA) has
submitted the following information
collection to the Office of Management
and Budget (OMB) for review and
clearance in accordance with the
requirements of the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995. The submission
describes the nature of the information
collection, the categories of
respondents, the estimated burden (i.e.,
the time, effort and resources used by
respondents to respond) and cost, and
includes the actual data collection
instruments FEMA will use.

Abstract: Many data products and
reports exist that contain fragmented or
estimated information about fire
department demographics, and
capabilities, but there is no single
reference source today that aggregates
this data to provide a complete and
accurate profile of fire departments in
the United States. The U.S. Fire
Administration (USFA) 1 receives many
requests for information related to fire
departments, including total number of
departments, number of stations per
department, population protected,
apparatus and equipment status. The
USFA is working to identify all fire
departments in the United States to
develop and populate a national
database that will include information
related to demographics, capabilities
and activities. The database will be used
by USFA to guide programmatic
decisions, provide the Fire Service and
the public with information about fire
departments, to produce mailing lists
for USFA publications and other
1 The U.S, Fire Administration is currently being
transferred to the newly created Preparedness
Directorate of the Department of Homeland
Security. During this transition FEMA, also part of
the Department of Homeland Security, will
continue to support this program as the new
Directorate stands up. Ultimately this data
collection will be transferred to the Preparedness
Directorate.

materials. In the first year of this effort,
information was collected from 16,000
fire departments. Since the first year of
the collection, an additional 8,000
departments have registered with the
census for a total of 24,000 fire
departments. This leaves an estimated
9,000 departments still to respond.
Additionally, fire departments already
registered with the census will be
contacted once every five years to
provide updates or changes to their
census data so that USFA can keep the
database as current as possible. Fire
departments are able to complete the
census form on-line through the USFA
Web site, or by filling out a paper
census form and faxing the completed
form, or sending it in a return envelope.
Affected Public: Federal, State, local,
government, volunteer and industrial
fire departments.
Number of Respondents: 9,000.
Estimated Time per Respondent: 25
minutes.
Estimated Total Annual Burden
Hours: 3,750 hours.
Frequency of Response: Once.
Comments: Interested persons are
invited to submit written comments on
the proposed information collection to
the Office of Information and Regulatory
Affairs at OMB, Attention: Desk Officer
for the Department of Homeland
