DOJ seeks PRA authorization for this information collection for three (3) years. OMB authorization for an ICR cannot be for more than three (3) years without renewal. The DOJ notes that information collection requirements submitted to the OMB for existing ICRs E:\FR\FM\16SEN1.SGM 16SEN1 75583 Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 179 / Monday, September 16, 2024 / Notices receive a month-to-month extension while they undergo review. Overview of This Information Collection 1. Type of Information Collection: Extension of a Currently Approved Collection. 2. Title of the Form/Collection: National Corrections Reporting Program. The collection includes the following parts: Prisoner Admission Report, Prisoner Release Report, Prisoners in Custody at Year-end Report, PostCustody Community Supervision Entry Report, Post-Custody Community Supervision Exit Report. 3. Agency form number, if any, and the applicable component of the Department of Justice sponsoring the collection: Form number(s): NCRP–1A, NCRP–1B, NCRP–1D, NCRP–1E, NCRP– 1F. The applicable component within the Department of Justice is the Bureau of Justice Statistics (Prisons Statistics Unit), in the Office of Justice Programs. 4. Affected public who will be asked or required to respond, as well as a brief abstract: Primary: 50 state departments of corrections (DOCs) and 7 parole boards (in six states and the District of Columbia). 5. Obligation to Respond: Voluntary. 6. Total Estimated Number of Respondents: BJS anticipates 57 respondents to NCRP by 2027: 50 state DOC respondents and seven separate parole boards (in six states and the District of Columbia). Burden hours for the three collection years (2025–2027) differ based on whether a state has previously submitted NCRP prison and PCCS data in recent years. In the last four years, 47 DOCs have submitted NCRP prison data, but currently, only 35 respondents have submitted PCCS data. 7. Estimated Time per Respondent: BJS anticipates 57 respondents to NCRP by 2027: 50 state DOC respondents and seven separate parole boards (in six states and the District of Columbia). Burden hours for the three collection years (2025–2027) differ based on whether a state has previously submitted NCRP prison and PCCS data in recent years. In the last four years, 47 DOCs have submitted NCRP prison data, but currently, only 35 respondents have submitted PCCS data. Burden Hours for Prison Records (NCRP–1A, NCRP–1B, NCRP–1D) All 50 DOCs have submitted NCRP prison data in the past, so the average time needed to continue providing prison data is expected to be 7 hours per respondent for both prisoner admissions and releases (NCRP–1A and NCRP–1B) and 7 hours for data on persons in prison at year-end (NCRP–1D). For 2025–2027, the total burden estimate is 14 hours per DOC for a total of 700 hours annually for the 50 DOCs (14 hours*50 = 700 hours). This is the same estimate as given for the 2024 collection since BJS is not requesting changes to the collection. Burden Hours for PCCS Records (NCRP– 1E, NCRP–1F) In 2023, there were 35 jurisdictions submitting 2022 PCCS data (31 DOCs and 4 parole supervising agencies), and BJS estimates that extraction and submission of both the PCCS entries and exits takes an average of 8 hours per jurisdiction. For 2025–2027, BJS hopes to recruit an additional five jurisdictions to submit NCRP PCCS data. For those 35 supervising agencies currently responding, provision of the PCCS data in 2022–2024 will total 280 hours (8 hours*35 = 280 hours) annually. The total estimate for submission of PCCS for new jurisdictions in 2022–2024 is 120 hours (24 hours*5 = 120 hours). For new agencies, BJS assumes the initial submission will take about three times longer than established reporters to account for programming, questions, and submission. The total amount of time for all PCCS submissions annually is 400 hours. Burden Hours for Data Review/FollowUp Consultations Follow-up consultations with respondents are usually necessary while processing the data to obtain further information regarding the definition, completeness and accuracy of their report. The duration of these follow-up consultations will vary based on the number of record types submitted, so BJS has estimated an average of 3 hours per jurisdiction to cover all of the records (prison and/or PCCS) submitted. In 2025, BJS anticipates that one of the two parole boards not currently submitting PCCS data will begin to submit, so the number of jurisdictions requiring follow-up consultations is 51 (50 DOCs submitting at least the prison data, and one parole board submitting only PCCS data). This yields a total of 153 hours of follow-up consultation after submission (3 hours * 51 = 153 hours). This total estimate of 153 hours for data review/follow-up consultations remains the same for 2026 and 2027. 8. Frequency: Annually. 9. Total Estimated Annual Time Burden: BJS anticipates that the total burden for provision and data follow-up of all NCRP data across the participating jurisdictions in 2025–2027 to be 1,235 hours (700 hours for prison records, 400 hours for PCCS records, and 153 hours for follow-up consultation). 10.

Overview of This Information Collection

    1. Type of Information Collection: Extension of a Currently 
Approved Collection.
    2. Title of the Form/Collection: National Corrections Reporting 
Program. The collection includes the following parts: Prisoner 
Admission Report, Prisoner Release Report, Prisoners in Custody at 
Year-end Report, Post-Custody Community Supervision Entry Report, Post-
Custody Community Supervision Exit Report.
    3. Agency form number, if any, and the applicable component of the 
Department of Justice sponsoring the collection: Form number(s): NCRP-
1A, NCRP-1B, NCRP-1D, NCRP-1E, NCRP-1F. The applicable component within 
the Department of Justice is the Bureau of Justice Statistics (Prisons 
Statistics Unit), in the Office of Justice Programs.
    4. Affected public who will be asked or required to respond, as 
well as a brief abstract: Primary: 50 state departments of corrections 
(DOCs) and 7 parole boards (in six states and the District of 
Columbia).
    5. Obligation to Respond: Voluntary.
    6. Total Estimated Number of Respondents: BJS anticipates 57 
respondents to NCRP by 2027: 50 state DOC respondents and seven 
separate parole boards (in six states and the District of Columbia). 
Burden hours for the three collection years (2025-2027) differ based on 
whether a state has previously submitted NCRP prison and PCCS data in 
recent years. In the last four years, 47 DOCs have submitted NCRP 
prison data, but currently, only 35 respondents have submitted PCCS 
data.
    7. Estimated Time per Respondent: BJS anticipates 57 respondents to 
NCRP by 2027: 50 state DOC respondents and seven separate parole boards 
(in six states and the District of Columbia). Burden hours for the 
three collection years (2025-2027) differ based on whether a state has 
previously submitted NCRP prison and PCCS data in recent years. In the 
last four years, 47 DOCs have submitted NCRP prison data, but 
currently, only 35 respondents have submitted PCCS data.

Burden Hours for Prison Records (NCRP-1A, NCRP-1B, NCRP-1D)

    All 50 DOCs have submitted NCRP prison data in the past, so the 
average time needed to continue providing prison data is expected to be 
7 hours per respondent for both prisoner admissions and releases (NCRP-
1A and NCRP-1B) and 7 hours for data on persons in prison at year-end 
(NCRP-1D). For 2025-2027, the total burden estimate is 14 hours per DOC 
for a total of 700 hours annually for the 50 DOCs (14 hours*50 = 700 
hours). This is the same estimate as given for the 2024 collection 
since BJS is not requesting changes to the collection.

Burden Hours for PCCS Records (NCRP-1E, NCRP-1F)

    In 2023, there were 35 jurisdictions submitting 2022 PCCS data (31 
DOCs and 4 parole supervising agencies), and BJS estimates that 
extraction and submission of both the PCCS entries and exits takes an 
average of 8 hours per jurisdiction. For 2025-2027, BJS hopes to 
recruit an additional five jurisdictions to submit NCRP PCCS data. For 
those 35 supervising agencies currently responding, provision of the 
PCCS data in 2022-2024 will total 280 hours (8 hours*35 = 280 hours) 
annually. The total estimate for submission of PCCS for new 
jurisdictions in 2022-2024 is 120 hours (24 hours*5 = 120 hours). For 
new agencies, BJS assumes the initial submission will take about three 
times longer than established reporters to account for programming, 
questions, and submission. The total amount of time for all PCCS 
submissions annually is 400 hours.

Burden Hours for Data Review/Follow-Up Consultations

    Follow-up consultations with respondents are usually necessary 
while processing the data to obtain further information regarding the 
definition, completeness and accuracy of their report. The duration of 
these follow-up consultations will vary based on the number of record 
types submitted, so BJS has estimated an average of 3 hours per 
jurisdiction to cover all of the records (prison and/or PCCS) 
submitted. In 2025, BJS anticipates that one of the two parole boards 
not currently submitting PCCS data will begin to submit, so the number 
of jurisdictions requiring follow-up consultations is 51 (50 DOCs 
submitting at least the prison data, and one parole board submitting 
only PCCS data). This yields a total of 153 hours of follow-up 
consultation after submission (3 hours * 51 = 153 hours). This total 
estimate of 153 hours for data review/follow-up consultations remains 
the same for 2026 and 2027.
    8. Frequency: Annually.
    9. Total Estimated Annual Time Burden: BJS anticipates that the 
total burden for provision and data follow-up of all NCRP data across 
the participating jurisdictions in 2025-2027 to be 1,235 hours (700 
hours for prison records, 400 hours for PCCS records, and 153 hours for 
follow-up consultation).
    10. Total Estimated Annual Other Costs Burden: $48,696.

                                                                   Total Burden Hours
