Under Title 28, United States Code (U.S.C.), Section (§) 534, Acquisition, Preservation, and Exchange of Identification Records and Information;
Appointment of Officials and the Uniform Federal Crime Reporting Act of 1988, 34 U.S.C. § 41303, this collection requests homicide data from federal, state, local, and tribal law enforcement agencies in order for the FBI UCR Program to serve as the national clearinghouse for collection and
dissemination of homicide data.
US Code:
28 USC 534
Name of Law: Acquisition, preservation, and exchange of identification records
For this extension, the respondentsâ annual burden was calculated using the actual number of months (1-12) for which the respondents submitted data. The annual burden hours show an increase over those presented in the previous extension based on the calculation procedure. However, since the information on the SHR form is included in NIBRS, the burden hours are expected to decrease over this three-year extension as agencies currently reporting under SRS transition to NIBRS.
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 and explain the reason in the Supporting Statement.
