    The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ), Justice Management Division, 
Office of Attorney Recruitment and Management (OARM), will be 
submitting the following information collection request for review and 
clearance in accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. 
Office of Management and Budget (OMB) approval is sought for the 
information collection listed below. This proposed information 
collection was previously published in the Federal Register Volume 75, 
Number 5, pages 1081-1082, on January 8, 2010, allowing for a 60 day 
comment period.
    The purpose of this notice is to allow an additional 30 days for 
public comment until April 21, 2010. This process is conducted in 
accordance with 5 CFR 1320.10.
    Written comments and/or suggestions regarding the item(s) contained 
in this notice, especially regarding the estimated public burden and 
associated response time, should be directed to the Office of 
Management and Budget, Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, 
Attention: Department of Justice Desk Officer, Washington, DC 20530. 
Additionally, comments may be submitted to OMB via facsimile to 202-
395-7285. Comments may also be submitted to the Department Clearance 
Officer, United States Department of Justice, Suite 1600, 601 D Street, 
NW., Washington, DC 20530.
    Written comments and suggestions from the public and affected 
agencies should address one or more of the following four points:
    (1) Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is 
necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency, 
including whether the information will have practical utility;
    (2) 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;
    (3) Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to 
be collected; and
    (4) 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.

Overview of This Information Collection

    (1) Type of Information Collection: Revision of a Currently 
Approved Collection.
    (2) Title of the Form/Collection: Electronic Applications for the 
Attorney General's Honors Program and the Summer Law Intern Program.
    (3) Agency form number, if any, and the applicable component of the 
Department sponsoring the collection: Form Number: none. Office of 
Attorney Recruitment and Management, Justice Management Division, U.S. 
Department of Justice.
    (4) Affected public who will be asked or required to respond, as 
well as a brief abstract: Primary: Individuals or households. Other: 
None. The application form is submitted voluntarily once a year by law 
students and judicial law clerks, who will be in this applicant pool 
only once; the revision to this collection concerns two additional 
forms required to be submitted only by those applicants who were 
selected to be interviewed by Department components. These forms seek 
information in order to prepare both the official Travel Authorizations 
prior to the interviewees' performing pre-employment interview travel 
(as defined by 41 CFR 301-1.3), and the official Travel Vouchers after 
the travel is completed. The first new form is the Travel Survey--used 
by the Department in scheduling travel and/or hotel accommodations, 
which in turn provides the estimated travel costs required by the 
Travel Authorization form. The second new form is a simple 
Reimbursement Form--the interviewees are asked to provide their travel 
costs and/or hotel accommodations (if applicable) in order for the 
Department to prepare the Travel Vouchers required before these 
interviewees can be reimbursed by the Department for the authorized 
costs they incurred during this pre-employment interview travel.
    (5) An estimate of the total number of respondents and the amount 
of time estimated for an average respondent to respond/reply: It is 
estimated that 5,000 respondents will complete the application in 
approximately one (1) hour per application. The revised burden would 
include 600 respondents who will complete the travel survey in 
approximately 10 minutes per form, and 600 respondents who will 
complete the reimbursement form in approximately 10 minutes per form.
    (6) An estimate of the total public burden (in hours) associated 
with the collection: The estimated revised total annual public burden 
associated with this application is 5,200 hours.
    If additional information is required, contact Lynn Bryant, 
Department Clearance Officer, United States Department of Justice, 
Justice Management Division, Policy and Planning Staff, Patrick Henry 
Building, Suite 1600, 601 D Street, NW., Washington, DC 20530.
