Additionally, comments may be
submitted to the OMB via facsimile at
(202) 395–7285.
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:
(1) Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the agency/component,
including whether the information will
have practical utility;
(2) Evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s/component’s estimate of the
burden of the proposed collection of the
information, including the validity of
the methodology and assumptions used;
(3) Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and
(4) Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including 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:
Approval of an Existing Collection.
(2) Title of the Forms: The National
Instant Criminal Background Check
System (NICS) Point-of-Contact (POC)
State Final Determination Electronic
Submission.
(3) Agency Form Number, if any, and
the applicable component of the
department sponsoring the collection:
Form Number: 1110–0035.
Sponsor: Criminal Justice Information
Services (CJIS) Division of the Federal
Bureau of Investigation (FBI),
Department of Justice (DOJ).
(4) Affected public who will be asked
or required to respond, as well as a brief
abstract:
Primary: Full Point-of-Contact (POC)
States; Partial POC States; the Bureau of
Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and
Explosives (ATF)-qualified Alternate
Permit States.
Brief Abstract: This collection is
requested of Full POC States; Partial
POC States; and the ATF-qualified
Alternate Permit States. Per Title 28,
Code of Federal Regulations, Section
25.6(h), POC States are required to
transmit electronic determination
messages to the Federal Bureau of
Investigation (FBI) Criminal Justice
Information Services Division’s National
Instant Criminal Background Check
System (NICS) Section of the status of
a firearm background check in those

instances in which a transaction is
‘‘open’’ (transactions unresolved before
the end of the operational day on which
the transaction was initiated); ‘‘denied’’
transactions; transactions reported to
the NICS as open and subsequently
changed to proceed; and overturned
denials. The POC States must send this
response to the NICS immediately upon
communicating their determination to
the Federal Firearms Licensee or in
those cases in which a response has not
been communicated, no later than the
end of the operational day in which the
transaction was initiated. For those
responses that are not received, the
NICS will assume the transaction
resulted in a ‘‘proceed.’’
(5) An estimate of the total number of
respondents and the amount of time
estimated for an average respondent to
respond: There are 21 POC States who
are required to submit electronic
notifications to the FBI CJIS Division’s
NICS Section and 18 ATF-qualified
Alternate Permit States voluntarily
submit electronic notifications to the
FBI CJIS Division’s NICS Section. Both
POC States and ATF-qualified Permit
States conduct an average of 5,859,797
transactions per year. It is estimated that
26 percent would be affected by this
collection and would require electronic
messages sent to the NICS. This
translates to 1,523,547 transactions,
which would be the total number of
annual responses. The other 74 percent
would not be reported in this collection.
It is estimated it will require one minute
(60 seconds) for each POC State and
ATF-qualified Alternate Permit State to
transmit the information per transaction
to the NICS. Thus, it is estimated that
collectively all respondents will spend
25,392 hours yearly submitting
determinations to the NICS. If the
number of transactions were distributed
evenly among the POC States and ATFqualified Alternate Permit States, then
651 hours would be the estimated time
for each of the 39 states to respond.
Record-keeping time is part of the
routine business process and is not part
of this calculation.
(6) An estimate of the total public
burden (in hours) associated with the
collection:
The average yearly hour burden for
submitting final determinations
combined is: (5,859,797 total checks ×
26 percent)/60 seconds = 25,392 hours.
