This information
collection is approved for a period of 1 year. However, prior to
sumbitting the information collection to OMB for extension, the
agency should 1) take steps to reduce the length of the survey
instrument; and 2) revise the ethnic origin categorization in those
questions aimed at identifying the ethnic origin of groups involved
with trafficking activities. In addition, the agency is reminded
that generalizations of this survey's results are limited to the
group of law enforcement agencies responding to the survey.
