    The affected public who are asked to voluntarily respond is city, 
county, state, tribal, and federal U.S. law enforcement. Under Title 
28, U.S. Code, Section 534, this information collection requests 
homicide data from respondents in order for the FBI UCR Program to 
serve as the national clearinghouse for the collection and 
dissemination of homicide data and to publish these statistics in Crime 
in the United States. The SHR provides for the national UCR Program a 
record of each homicide incident including details regarding the 
victim, offender, their relationship, the weapon used, and the 
circumstances in which each criminal homicide, justifiable homicide, 
and manslaughter by negligence is committed.
    5. An estimate of the total number of respondents and the amount of 
time estimated for an average respondent to respond: There is a 
potential of 18,233 law enforcement agency respondents; 11,586 for the 
Summary Reporting System (SRS) and 6,647 for the National Incident-
Based Reporting System (NIBRS). NIBRS burden hours are collected on the 
NIBRS Information Collection Request. Calculated estimates

[[Page 30165]]

for an SRS respondent to respond indicate 9 minutes per month. The 
total annual burden hour per respondent is 1 hour and 48 minutes.
    Total Annual Hour Burden:

9 minutes x 12 months = 108/60 = 1 hour and 48 minutes.

    6. An estimate of the total public burden (in hours) associated 
with the collection: There are approximately 20,855 hours, annual 
burden, associated with this information collection.

11,586 respondents x 12 responses/year = 139,032 total annual responses
139,032 x 9 minutes/60 minutes = 20,855 total annual hour burden

(This burden estimate does not include the 6,696 NIBRS agencies; the 
NIBRS burden hours are captured in the NIBRS Information Collection 
Request.)
