SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Indian Gaming Regulatory Act (IGRA) established the National Indian Gaming Commission, which is charged with regulating gaming on Indian lands. Commission regulations (25 CFR part 514) provide for a system of fee assessment and payment that is selfadministered by gaming operations. Pursuant to those regulations, the Commission is required to adopt and communicate assessment rates and the gaming operations are required to apply those rates to their revenues, compute the fees to be paid, report the revenues, and remit the fees to the Commission. All gaming operations within the jurisdiction of the Commission are required to self-administer the provisions of these regulations, and report and pay any fees that are due to the Commission. It is necessary for the Commission to maintain the fee rate to ensure that the agency has sufficient funding to fully meet its statutory and regulatory responsibilities. In addition, it is critical for the Commission to maintain constantly an adequate transition carryover balance to cover any cash flow variations. Pursuant to 25 CFR part 514, the Commission must also review annually the costs involved in processing fingerprint cards and set a fee based on fees charged by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and costs incurred by the Commission. Commission costs include Commission personnel, supplies, equipment & infrastructure costs, and postage to submit the results to the requesting tribe. The decrease in FY25 fingerprint processing fee is attributable largely to the completion of the Agency’s hardware refresh of core networking and server computing devices in FY24 which has reduced the support time for on-premises systems and infrastructure supporting fingerprint processing. In addition, the successful establishment of the CJIS Audit Unit (CAU) within the Division of Technology has significantly decreased the cross-divisional resources previously required to ensure compliance with the Federal Bureau of Investigation Criminal Justice Information Services (FBI CJIS) requirements. FY25 fingerprint processing fee’s decrease also reflects the cost savings resulting from the completion of one-time capital investments associated with the Washington, DC headquarters office relocation in FY24. In FY25 the Commission will also continue its VerDate Sep<11>2014 19:13 Oct 25, 2024 Jkt 265001 commitment to take necessary measures to comply with the FBI CJIS requirements which ensure the NIGC and participating tribes can continue to use FBI criminal history report information (CHRI) to assist in determining a key employee or primary management official’s eligibility for a gaming license.

Affected public who will be asked or required to respond, as well as a brief abstract: In the fiscal year (FY) 2023, the National Institute of Justice (NIJ) awarded Westat, a professional research services organization, along with their partners at New York University and the University of Cincinnati, to conduct ‘‘The Study of Interpersonal Violence among Young Adults Pilot Project’’ (Jan. 1, 2024–December 31, 2025), which will inform the implementation of a longitudinal study expected to begin in FY2026. The longitudinal study titled ‘‘National Longitudinal Cohort Study of Interpersonal Violence Among CollegeAged Women and Men,’’ also referred to as the Long IVY study, is a critically needed, nationally representative, longitudinal panel survey of interpersonal violence among young adults (ages 18–24) who do and do not attend college. It will examine trajectories of risk and protective factors probability sample of approximately 5,000 young adults, with a goal of retaining 250–300 after a one-time data collection in response to the recruitment form. The form will be administered in the spring/summer of the recruitment year 2025, and respondents must have either graduated high school or are no longer be in high school. Respondents must be 18 to be eligible for recruitment. 5. An estimate of the total number of respondents and the amount of time estimated for an average respondent to respond: The pilot study’s estimated range of burden for respondents is expected to be between 8 and 14 minutes for completion. Based on instrument testing results, an average of 12 minutes per respondent is expected to be spent. The following factors were considered when creating the burden estimate: the estimated total number of respondents. NIJ estimates that approximately 168 respondents will fully complete the questionnaire, yielding a modified response rate of 55%. 6. An estimate of the total public burden associated with the pilot data collection: For the pilot study, the estimated public burden associated with this collection is 691 hours, which includes the time it takes each of the expected respondents to open all mailing materials and complete the questionnaire.

    The longitudinal study design includes recruiting 17,000 young

    The Study of Interpersonal Violence among Young Adults Pilot 
Project (the current study) will recruit a national probability sample 
of approximately 5,000 young adults, with a goal of retaining 250-300 
after a one-time data collection in response to the recruitment form. 
The form will be administered in the spring/summer of the recruitment 
year 2025, and respondents must have either graduated high school or 
are no longer be in high school. Respondents must be 18 to be eligible 
for recruitment.
