SUMMARY:

Title: National Fire Incident Reporting
System (NFIRS) v5.0.
Type of information collection:
Revision of a currently approved
information collection.
Form Titles and Numbers: FEMA
Form The National Fire Incident
Reporting System (NFIRS) v5.0.
Abstract: NFIRS was established in
1975 by the USFA as a cooperative
effort of local, State, and Federal
authorities to improve uniformity in fire
incident reporting and to ensure that
data are useable for fire protection
planning and management. The program
provides a well-established mechanism,
using standardized reporting methods,

PO 00000

to collect and analyze fire incident data
at the Federal, State, and local levels
with a myriad of life and property
saving uses and benefits.
Affected Public: State, Local or Tribal,
and Federal Governments.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
23,856. The number of respondents has
increased by 856 since FEMA published
the 60 day Federal Register notice on
October 30, 2014 because of a clerical
error.
Estimated Total Annual Burden
Hours: 13,500,230. The annual burden
hours decreased by 204,670 hours from
the previous inventory due to
discontinuation of use of NFIRS paper
forms and a small decrease in the
number of students receiving the NFIRS
Program Management Training and
Orientation.
Estimated Cost: The estimated annual
operations and maintenance costs to
respondents or record keepers resulting
from the collection of information is
$13,915,000. The estimated annual cost
to the Federal Government is
$2,416,255.
