SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background.— In October 2018, the

material injury by reason of imports of
PET resin from Brazil, Indonesia, Korea,
Pakistan, and Taiwan that were sold in
the United States at less than fair value.

four points:
• Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the FBI, including whether
the information will have practical
utility;
• Evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;

enhanced; 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.

Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 133 / Friday, July 10, 2020 / Notices
Overview of This Information
Collection
(1) Type of Information Collection:
Extension of a currently approved
collection.
(2) The Title of the Form/Collection:
National Use-of-Force Data Collection
(3) The agency form number, if any,
and the applicable component of the
Department sponsoring the collection:
The form number is 1110–0071.
Sponsor: 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: Federal, state, local, and tribal
law enforcement agencies.
Abstract: The FBI has a long-standing
tradition of collecting data and
providing statistics concerning Law
Enforcement Officers Killed and
Assaulted (LEOKA) and justifiable
homicides. To provide a better
understanding of the incidents of use of
force by law enforcement, the Uniform
Crime Reporting (UCR) Program
developed a new data collection for law
enforcement agencies to provide
information on incidents where use of
force by a law enforcement officer has
led to the death or serious bodily injury
of a person, as well as when a law
enforcement officer discharges a firearm
at or in the direction of a person.
When a use-of-force incident occurs,
federal, state, local, and tribal law
enforcement agencies provide
information to the data collection on
characteristics of the incident, subjects
of the use of force, and the officers who
applied force in the incident. Agencies
positively affirm, on a monthly basis,
whether their agency did or did not
have a use-of-force incident that
resulted in a fatality, a serious bodily
injury to a person, or a firearm discharge
at or in the direction of a person. When
no use-of-force incident occurs in a
month, agencies submit a zero report.
Enrollment information from agencies
and state points of contact is collected
when the agency or contact initiates
participation in the data collection.
Enrollment information is updated no
less than annually to assist with
managing this data.
The new data collection defines a law
enforcement officer using the current
LEOKA definition: ‘‘All federal, state,
county, and local law enforcement
officers (such as municipal, county
police officers, constables, state police,
highway patrol, sheriffs, their deputies,
federal law enforcement officers,
marshals, special agents, etc.) who are
sworn by their respective government
authorities to uphold the law and to
safeguard the rights, lives, and property
of American citizens. They must have
full arrest powers and be members of a
public governmental law enforcement
agency, paid from government funds set
aside specifically for payment to sworn
police law enforcement organized for
the purposes of keeping order and for
preventing and detecting crimes, and
apprehending those responsible.’’
The definition of ‘‘serious bodily
injury’’ is based, in part, on Title 18
United States Code, Section 2246(4), to
mean ‘‘bodily injury that involves a
substantial risk of death,
unconsciousness, protracted and
obvious disfigurement, or protracted
loss or impairment of the function of a
bodily member, organ, or mental
faculty.’’ These actions include the use
of a firearm; an electronic control
weapon (e.g., Taser); an explosive
device; pepper or OC (oleoresin
capsicum) spray or other chemical
agent; a baton; an impact projectile; a
blunt instrument; hands-fists-feet; or
canine.
(5) A total number of respondents and
the amount of time estimated for an
average respondent to respond: As of
June 2020, a total of 6,837 agencies
covering 439,936 law enforcement
officers were enrolled in the National
Use-of-Force Data Collection. The
burden hours per incident are estimated
to be 0.63 of an hour for completion,
around 38 minutes per incident.
(6) An estimate of the total public
burden (in hours) associated with the
collection: Burden estimates are based
on sources from the FBI’s UCR Program,
the Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS),
and the Centers for Disease Control
(CDC). The BJS recently estimated that
approximately 1,400 fatalities attributed
to a law enforcement use of force occur
annually (Planty, et al., 2015, ArrestRelated Deaths Program: Data Quality
Profile, https://www.bjs.gov/
index.cfm?ty=pbdetail&iid=5260 ). In
addition, the CDC estimates the
incidences of fatal and nonfatal injury—
including those due to legal
intervention—from emergency
department data. In their study, The real
risks during deadly police shootouts:
Accuracy of the naı¨ve shooter,
Lewinski, et al., (2015) estimate law
enforcement officers miss their target
approximately 50 percent of the time at
the firing range. This information was
used to develop a simple estimate for
the number of times officers discharge a
firearm at or in the direction of a person
but do not strike the individual. In
addition, the UCR Program collects
counts of the number of sworn and
civilian law enforcement employees in
the nation’s law enforcement agencies.
The following table shows burden
estimates based on previous estimation
criteria and current National Use-ofForce Data Collection enrollment
numbers.
