Overview of This Information Collection
1. Type of Information Collection: Extension of a previously
approved collection.
2. The Title of the Form/Collection: Law Enforcement Officers
Killed and Assaulted.
3. Agency form number, if any, and the applicable component of the
Department of Justice sponsoring the collection: The form number is 1-
705 and the sponsor is the CJIS Division, FBI, DOJ.
4. Affected public who will be asked or required to respond, as
well as a brief abstract: Federal, state, county, city, tribal, and
territorial law enforcement agencies. Under Title 28, United States
Code, Section 534, Acquisition, Preservation, and Exchange of
Identification Records; Appointments of Officials, this collection
requests Law Enforcement Officers Killed and Assaulted (LEOKA) data
from federal, state, county, city, tribal, and territorial law
enforcement agencies in order for the FBI's Uniform Crime Reporting
(UCR) Program to serve as the national clearinghouse for the collection
and dissemination of crime data and to publish Law Enforcement Officers
Killed and Assaulted statistics annually.
5. Obligation to Respond: The obligation to respond is voluntary
and at the discretion of the contributing agency.
6. Total Estimated Number of Respondents: In 2024, there were
19,328 active law enforcement agencies within the universe of potential
respondents to the FBI's UCR Program. Agencies submitting data under
the National Incident-Based Reporting System (NIBRS) totaled 14,601 and
2,074 submitted data via the Summary Reporting System (SRS). LEOKA data
using Form 1-705 were submitted by 1,084 agencies and the estimated
maximum number of responses was 13,008.
7. Estimated Time per Respondent: Form 1-705 requires an estimated
7 minutes to complete. This clearance is being maintained to allow
agencies not yet having transitioned to NIBRS to submit LEOKA data. As
SRS agencies continue to transition to NIBRS, the FBI's UCR Program
expects the use of Form 1-705 to decline because the information will
be submitted through NIBRS. The burden hour estimate is based on the
2024 submission volumes to achieve the highest possible burden
estimate.
8. Frequency: Variable.
9. Total Estimated Annual Time Burden: There are approximately
1,517.6 annual burden hours associated with this information
