and the applicable component of the
department sponsoring the collection:
Criminal Justice Information Services
Division, Federal Bureau of
Investigation, Department of Justice.
(4) Affected public who will be asked
or required to respond, as well as a brief
abstract: Primary: federal, state, local,

Preservation, and Exchange of
Identification Records; Appointment of
Officials, June 11, 1930; Code of Federal
Regulations, Title 28, Part 20, Criminal
Justice Information, this collection
requests information from federal, state,
local, territorial, and tribal law
enforcement agencies. The NCIC is a
computerized information system
available to law enforcement and
criminal justice agencies nationwide.

NCIC became operational on January 27,
1967, with the goal of assisting law
enforcement in the apprehension of
fugitives and locating stolen property.
This goal has expanded to include
locating missing persons and further
protecting law enforcement personnel
and the public. The NCIC is the sole
system that houses actionable criminal
justice and law enforcement data from
more than 90,000 users nationwide. The
average transactions per day in FY 2013
were 9.6 million. On September 13,
2013, NCIC had a peak daily transaction
volume of 12.21 million transactions.
The system was available 99.75 percent
of the time in FY 2013. The last major
upgrade to NCIC occurred in July 1999,
with the transition to NCIC 2000. The
CJIS Division has implemented many
enhancements to the system since 1999,
in an effort to continue to meet the
needs of the stakeholders. The NCIC
stakeholders include law enforcement
and criminal justice users at all levels
(federal, state, local, territorial, and
tribal). As the lifecycle of NCIC 2000
nears its end, the CJIS Division is
preparing for the next major upgrade to
NCIC known as NCIC 3 rd Generation
(N3G). The mission of N3G is to partner
with stakeholders to identify new
functionality and information sharing
services that will improve, modernize
and expand the existing NCIC system so
that it will continue to provide real
time, accurate, and complete criminal
justice information to support the NCIC
user community. With OMB approval,
the CJIS Division will be conducting a
requirements canvass in FY14 and FY15
for N3G. The purpose of the
requirements study is to gather and
evaluate the needs of the law
enforcement and criminal justice
communities. Subsequently, the needs
of the users will be documented in
concepts and scenarios that will
ultimately become the Concept of
Operations (CONOPS) for the
development of the N3G. It is vital that
the new capabilities and functionality
are detailed in a robust CONOPS to
ensure that the system is developed to
meet the current and future needs of the
users.
(5) An estimate of the total number of
respondents and the amount of time
estimated for an average respondent to
respond: It is anticipated that the N3G
Canvass will be conducted at a focal
point in all 50 states. The canvass will
include interviewing the respective state
CSO along with any technical and
policy staff, i.e., Computer Engineer(s),
they deem appropriate. The on-site
canvass will be conducted at the CSA
facility and the additional individuals

emcdonald on DSK67QTVN1PROD with NOTICES
will be required to travel to that
respective facility. The CSO and their
staff will be at the location for a total of
four hours for the state based interview.
The state employees will remain at the
location during the local level interview
process. This interview will include
twelve local law enforcement personnel
during an additional four hours. It is
expected that four of the local personnel
will be within the respective city
incurring no travel burden. It is
anticipated that eight of the local law
enforcement personnel from two
different districts will require up to four
hours travel time (two hours each way)
to the interview location, thus four
hours burden for eight people.
It is anticipated that ten additional
interviews will be conducted that do not
fall within the CSO location. These
interviewees will consist of the
manager, two computer engineers and
ten additional personnel.
The estimate of the respondent’s
burden for this data collection is as
follows:
Number of N3G respondents: 880.
Frequency of responses: One session
(4 hours each) for Local Law
Enforcement Personnel; Two sessions (4
hours each) for CSO and two Computer
Engineers except when interviewing at
a CSA.
Total annual responses: Once for
Local Law Enforcement personnel and
twice for CSOs and Computer
Engineers.
Hours per response: 4 hours.
Hours for Travel for 8 Local LE
personnel per location: 4 hours.
Annual Hour Burden: 5,720 hours.
(6) An estimate of the total public
burden (in hours) associated with this
collection: There are approximately
5,720 hours, annual burden, associated
with this information collection.
