ACTION:
30-Day Notice.
The Department of Justice (DOJ),
Bureau of Justice Statistics, will be
submitting 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. The
proposed information was previously
published in the Federal Register
Volume 78, Number 4, pages 959–961
on Monday, January 7, 2013, allowing a
60-day comment period. The burden
estimate for local jails in the Annual
Survey of Jails increased from 929
respondents as indicated in the 60-day
notice to 950 respondents, due to the
inclusion of 21 respondents from all
other California jail jurisdictions not
originally selected in the sample survey.
The purpose of this notice is to allow
for an additional 30 days for public
comment April 15, 2013.
If you have comments especially on
the estimated public burden or
associated response time, suggestions,
or need a copy of the proposed
information collection instrument with
instructions or additional information,
please contact Todd D. Minton, Bureau
of Justice Statistics, 810 Seventh Street

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 Bureau of Justice
Statistics, 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;
—Evaluate whether and if so how the
quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected can be
enhanced; and
—Ways to 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:
Revisions of a currently approved
collection.
(2) Title of the Form/Collection: The
Annual Survey of Jails (ASJ). The
collection includes the forms: Annual
Survey of Jails (ASJ), which includes the
regular form and the certainty
jurisdiction form; and the Survey of Jails
in Indian Country (SJIC) regular form.
(3) Agency form number, if any, and
the applicable component of the
Department of Justice sponsoring the
collection: Form numbers include:
• Annual Survey of Jails: This
collection consists of four forms:
Æ CJ–5 and CJ–5A, the ASJ regular
forms: These forms go to jail
jurisdictions in the ASJ sample that are
not selected with certainty. The CJ–5
form goes to jail jurisdictions operated
by the county or city and the CJ–5A goes
to privately owned or operated
confinement facilities. In an effort to
assess the recent impact California jails
have on the national jail population due
to significant correctional policy
changes in that state, non-sampled jail
jurisdiction from California will also be
included in the data collection, but not
included in the national jail population
estimate;
PO 00000
Frm 00072
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
Æ CJ–5D and CJ–5DA, the ASJ
certainty jurisdiction forms: The forms
go to jail jurisdictions in the ASJ sample
that are selected with certainty. The CJ–
5D and CJ–5DA request additional
information about the distribution of
time served, staffing, and inmate
misconduct that are not requested on
the CJ–5 and CJ–5A. The CJ–5D goes to
jurisdictions operated by the county or
city; the CJ–5DA goes to confinement
facilities administered by two or more
governments and privately owned or
operated confinement facilities.
• Survey of Jails in Indian Country
(SJIC): All respondents receive the CJ–
5B (the SJIC regular form).
The applicable component of the
Department of Justice sponsoring the
collection is the Bureau of Justice
Statistics, which is within the Office of
Justice Programs.
(4) Affected public who will be asked
or required to respond, as well as a brief
abstract: The affected public that will be
asked to respond include approximately
1,000 county, city, and Tribal jail
authorities (950 respondents to the ASJ
and 82 to the SJIC). As community
institutions that book an estimated 12
million inmates per year, local jails are
an integral part of the justice system,
operating at the front end (that is,
following arrest or referral) as well as
the back end (discharging inmates and
holding those sentenced to jail). Their
broad functions include handling
inmates who are awaiting trial or
sentencing, holding inmates for other
authorities, detaining inmates with
special needs such as mental health
holds or alcohol detoxifications,
transferring inmates to court
appearances and bringing them back to
detention, discharging inmates at the
behest of the court or other entities, and
holding inmates who have been
sentenced to terms in jail.
In response to the increase in the
California jail population as the result of
legislature and governor enacted laws to
reduce the number of inmates housed in
state prisons, BJS plans to collect data
from the non-selected California jails in
the sample survey to assess the impact
on the national jail population. On May
23, 2011, the U.S. Supreme Court
upheld the ruling by a lower three-judge
court that the State of California must
reduce its prison population to 137.5%
of design capacity (approximately
110,000 prisoners) within two years to
alleviate overcrowding. In response, the
California State Legislature and
governor enacted two laws—AB 109 and
AB 117—to reduce the number of
inmates housed in state prisons starting
October 1, 2011. The Public Safety
Realignment (PSR) policy is designed to

reduce the prison population through
normal attrition of the existing
population while placing new
nonviolent, nonserious, nonsexual
offenders under county jurisdiction for
incarceration in local jail facilities.
Inmates released from local jails will be
placed under a county-directed postrelease community supervision program
(PRCS) instead of the state’s parole
system.
The set of collections in this package
provides BJS with the capacity to track
and analyze changes in the jail inmate
population that might signal changes in
the kinds of cases coming into or
leaving the criminal justice system, and
to analyze how the volatility of jail
inmate populations affects the workload
of jails and their capacities to provide
services. The parallel structure of the
SJIC collection provides BJS with this
capacity for Indian country jails.
In its entirety, this collection is the
only national effort devoted to
describing and understanding annual
changes in jail populations as well as
assessing programs and capacities to
provide services. The collection enables
BJS, other federal agencies, and state,
local, and Tribal corrections authorities
and administrators, as well as
legislators, researchers, and jail planners
to track growth in the number of jails
and their capacities nationally; as well
as, track changes in the demographics
and supervision status of jail population
and the prevalence of crowding.
The forms and information content for
this collection are outlined next in the
following order: First, the components
of the Annual Survey of Jails (ASJ),
which include the CJ–5, CJ–5A, CJ–5D,
and CJ–5DA. Second, the Survey of Jails
in Indian Country (SJIC) includes the
CJ–5B.
The two components of the Annual
Survey of Jails include the CJ–5/5A and
CJ–5D/5DA forms. The CJ–5/5A forms
are to be administered to ASJ sample
elements that are selected with a
probability of less than 1. The CJ–5D/
5DA forms are to be administered to ASJ
sample elements selected with certainty.
CJ–5 and CJ–5A
For these forms, 555 respondents from
sampled county and city jails and 21
respondents from non-selected
California jails will be asked to provide
information for the following categories:
(a) At midyear (last weekday in the
month of June), the number of inmates
confined in jail facilities including;
male and female adult and juvenile
inmates; persons under age 18 held as
adults; race categories; held for Federal
authorities, State prison authorities and
other local jail jurisdictions.

(h) Jail capacity, measured three ways:
Rated capacity, operating capacity, and
design capacity.
(i) At midyear, the number of persons
under jail supervision but not confined
(e.g., electronic monitoring, day
reporting, etc.)
CJ–5D and CJ–5DA
These forms will be administered to
the certainty jurisdictions in the ASJ
sample; in addition to the information
collected in the regular ASJ forms (the
CJ–5/5A), the 374 respondents that are
included with certainty in the ASJ
sample survey will be asked to provide
additional information on the flow of
inmates going through jails and the
distribution of time served, staff
characteristics and assaults on staff
resulting in death, and inmate
misconduct. More specifically, these
include:
(a) The distribution of time served by
inmates discharged during the final
week of June, broken out by whether the
inmates were convicted or unconvicted.
(b) At midyear, the number of
correctional officers and other staff
employed by jail facilities;
(c) From July 1 of the previous year
to June 30 of the current collection year:

Overview of This Information Collection
(1) Type of Information Collection: Revisions of a currently
approved collection.
(2) Title of the Form/Collection: The Annual Survey of Jails (ASJ).
The collection includes the forms: Annual Survey of Jails (ASJ), which
includes the regular form and the certainty jurisdiction form; and the
Survey of Jails in Indian Country (SJIC) regular form.
(3) Agency form number, if any, and the applicable component of the
Department of Justice sponsoring the collection: Form numbers include:
Annual Survey of Jails: This collection consists of four
forms:
[cir] CJ-5 and CJ-5A, the ASJ regular forms: These forms go to jail
jurisdictions in the ASJ sample that are not selected with certainty.
The CJ-5 form goes to jail jurisdictions operated by the county or city
and the CJ-5A goes to privately owned or operated confinement
facilities. In an effort to assess the recent impact California jails
have on the national jail population due to significant correctional
policy changes in that state, non-sampled jail jurisdiction from
California will also be included in the data collection, but not
included in the national jail population estimate;
[cir] CJ-5D and CJ-5DA, the ASJ certainty jurisdiction forms: The
forms go to jail jurisdictions in the ASJ sample that are selected with
certainty. The CJ-5D and CJ-5DA request additional information about
the distribution of time served, staffing, and inmate misconduct that
are not requested on the CJ-5 and CJ-5A. The CJ-5D goes to
jurisdictions operated by the county or city; the CJ-5DA goes to
confinement facilities administered by two or more governments and
privately owned or operated confinement facilities.
Survey of Jails in Indian Country (SJIC): All respondents
receive the CJ-5B (the SJIC regular form).
The applicable component of the Department of Justice sponsoring
the collection is the Bureau of Justice Statistics, which is within the
Office of Justice Programs.
(4) Affected public who will be asked or required to respond, as
well as a brief abstract: The affected public that will be asked to
respond include approximately 1,000 county, city, and Tribal jail
authorities (950 respondents to the ASJ and 82 to the SJIC). As
community institutions that book an estimated 12 million inmates per
year, local jails are an integral part of the justice system, operating
at the front end (that is, following arrest or referral) as well as the
back end (discharging inmates and holding those sentenced to jail).
Their broad functions include handling inmates who are awaiting trial
or sentencing, holding inmates for other authorities, detaining inmates
with special needs such as mental health holds or alcohol
detoxifications, transferring inmates to court appearances and bringing
them back to detention, discharging inmates at the behest of the court
or other entities, and holding inmates who have been sentenced to terms
in jail.
In response to the increase in the California jail population as
the result of legislature and governor enacted laws to reduce the
number of inmates housed in state prisons, BJS plans to collect data
from the non-selected California jails in the sample survey to assess
the impact on the national jail population. On May 23, 2011, the U.S.
Supreme Court upheld the ruling by a lower three-judge court that the
State of California must reduce its prison population to 137.5% of
design capacity (approximately 110,000 prisoners) within two years to
alleviate overcrowding. In response, the California State Legislature
and governor enacted two laws--AB 109 and AB 117--to reduce the number
of inmates housed in state prisons starting October 1, 2011. The Public
Safety Realignment (PSR) policy is designed to
[[Page 16535]]
reduce the prison population through normal attrition of the existing
population while placing new nonviolent, nonserious, nonsexual
offenders under county jurisdiction for incarceration in local jail

the criminal justice system, and to analyze how the volatility of jail
inmate populations affects the workload of jails and their capacities
to provide services. The parallel structure of the SJIC collection
provides BJS with this capacity for Indian country jails.
In its entirety, this collection is the only national effort
devoted to describing and understanding annual changes in jail
populations as well as assessing programs and capacities to provide
services. The collection enables BJS, other federal agencies, and
state, local, and Tribal corrections authorities and administrators, as
well as legislators, researchers, and jail planners to track growth in
the number of jails and their capacities nationally; as well as, track
changes in the demographics and supervision status of jail population
and the prevalence of crowding.
The forms and information content for this collection are outlined
next in the following order: First, the components of the Annual Survey
of Jails (ASJ), which include the CJ-5, CJ-5A, CJ-5D, and CJ-5DA.
Second, the Survey of Jails in Indian Country (SJIC) includes the CJ-
5B.
The two components of the Annual Survey of Jails include the CJ-5/
5A and CJ-5D/5DA forms. The CJ-5/5A forms are to be administered to ASJ
sample elements that are selected with a probability of less than 1.
The CJ-5D/5DA forms are to be administered to ASJ sample elements
selected with certainty.
CJ-5 and CJ-5A
For these forms, 555 respondents from sampled county and city jails
and 21 respondents from non-selected California jails will be asked to
provide information for the following categories:
(a) At midyear (last weekday in the month of June), the number of
inmates confined in jail facilities including; male and female adult
