4. Affected public who will be asked or required to respond, as
well as a brief abstract:
Primary: Individuals.
Individuals who are contractors for the Department of Justice or
who are processed for access to classified information by the
Department of Justice.
Abstract: Self-reporting requirements set forth in the Department
of Justice (DOJ) Policy Statement 1700.04, Department Personnel
Security Reporting Requirements, issued April 18, 2018, apply to non-
federal employee personnel affiliated with the DOJ. The policy contains
reporting requirements that are applicable to the entire DOJ workforce
as well as reporting requirements that apply only to personnel
occupying a national security position or who have access to classified
information. The requirements relating to national security are
mandated by the Director of National Intelligence as the Security
Executive Agent. The majority of the reports relate to the submitter's
personal conduct and activities. There is one form for personnel to
submit information on other personnel, consistent with government-wide
reporting requirements. This collection request seeks approval for
contractors and other non-federal employees who are processed for
access to classified information to utilize the Department's automated
reporting system called iReport, or, for the small population with no
access to the IT system, to utilize PDF fillable forms to report the
required information. The Security and Emergency Planning Staff, and
other Department Security Offices, will use the reported information to
determine the submitter's continued fitness for employment at the
Department of Justice or continued eligibility for access to national
security information. The Department security offices for each agency
component will review, evaluate, and adjudicate the information
received.
5. An estimate of the total number of respondents and the amount of
time estimated for an average respondent to respond:
a. Department-wide population covered by the requirement to self-
report information in the forms listed in Sections 2a and 2b is
estimated at 57,744. It is estimated that only three percent (1,732)
will actually need to self-report.
b. Department-wide population covered by the requirement to report
information in the forms listed in
[[Page 12205]]
Sections 2c through 2l is estimated to be 604.
c. Amount of time estimated for an average reported is less than
ten minutes.
6. An estimate of the total public burden (in hours) associated
with the collection: 389 annual burden hours.
