This information collection
requirement is necessary to obtain and record the sex offender
registration information of those sex offenders who live, work, or
go to school on Army installations. Respondents are any convicted
sex offenders required to register pursuant to any DoD, Army, State
government, law, regulation, or policy where they are employed,
reside, or are a student and live, work, or go to school on an Army
installation. The information collected is used by Army law
enforcement to ensure the sex offender is compliant with any court
order restrictions.
US Code:
42 USC 16901 - 16928 Name of Law: The Jacob Wetterling, Megan
Nicole Kanka, and Sex Offender Registration and Notification Act
(SORNA)
The burden has substantially
decreased since the last OMB approval three years ago. The Army has
significantly improved its background screening process, resulting
in far fewer sex offenders living or working on Army
installations.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that
the collection of information encompassed by this request complies
with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR
1320.8(b)(3).
The following is a summary of the topics, regarding
the proposed collection of information, that the certification
covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;
(iii) Burden estimate;
(iv) Nature of response (voluntary, required for a
benefit, or mandatory);
(v) Nature and extent of confidentiality; and
(vi) Need to display currently valid OMB control
number;
If you are unable to certify compliance with any of
these provisions, identify the item by leaving the box unchecked
