Abstract: Capital punishment
information is collected by the Bureau
of Justice Statistics (BJS) annually as
part of the National Prisoner Statistics
data series (NPS–8). These
establishment surveys provide BJS with
the capacity to report annually on
changes in the size and composition of
persons under State or Federal sentence
of death and changes to the laws
regulating the imposition and
implementation of death sentences in
the United States. The NPS–8 covers all
persons held in a State or Federal
correctional facility under sentence of
death at any time during the calendar
year. The coverage includes capital
prisoners transferred from death row to
non-correctional institutions, such as
mental hospitals, and prisoners who
may have escaped custody. Excluded
are capital prisoners who for any reason
remain in local correctional institutions
outside the jurisdiction of State or
Federal correctional authorities from
whom data are collected for this series.
NPS–8 also excludes persons who were
convicted and sentenced to death under
the Uniform Code of Military Justice.
Information such as statutory,
demographic, and criminal history data
collected through NPS–8 is not
attainable from any other single data
source.
Overview of This Information
Collection
1. Type of Information Collection:
Reinstatement of a previously approved
collection.
2. The Title of the Form/Collection:
Capital Punishment Report of Inmates
Under Sentence of Death.
3. The agency form number, if any,
and the applicable component of the
Department sponsoring the collection:
The Capital Punishment Report of
Inmates Under Sentence of Death (NPS–
8) contains four forms: NPS–8 (Report of
Inmates Under Sentence of Death; NPS–
8A (Update Report of Inmates Under
Sentence of Death); NPS–8B (Status of
Death Penalty Statutes—No Statute in
Force); and NPS–8C (Status of Death
Penalty Statutes—Statute in Force). The
applicable component within the
10099
Department of Justice is the Bureau of
Justice Statistics, in the Office of Justice
Programs.
4. Affected public who will be asked
or required to respond, as well as the
obligation to respond: Affected Public—
staff from State departments of
correction, offices of State attorneys
general, the Federal Bureau of Prisons,
and the U.S. Attorney for the District of
Columbia. The obligation to respond is
voluntary.
5. An estimate of the total number of
respondents and the amount of time
estimated for an average respondent to
respond: The NPS–8 will collect data
from an estimated 85 respondents from
State departments of correction, the
Federal Bureau of Prisons, State
Attorneys General, and the U.S.
Attorney for the District of Columbia.
For each data collection cycle, we
estimate an average burden of 30
minutes for the NPA–8, 30 minutes for
the NPS–8A, 15 minutes for the NPS–
8B, and 15 minutes to complete the
NPS–8C. We estimate that data quality
follow-up is needed for 50% of NPS–8
forms (10) and 5% of NPS–8A forms
(124) and will run an average of 15
minutes for each response. We estimate
a 10-minute follow-up for 10% (5) of
NPS–8B and NPS–8C respondents.
6. An estimate of the total annual
burden (in hours) associated with the
collection: There are approximately
1,292 total annual burden hours for this

burden associated with the collection, if
