SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Written comments and suggestions from the
public and affected agencies concerning the proposed collection of
information are encouraged. Your comments should address one or more of
the following four points:
--Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the functions of the Bureau of Justice
Statistics, including whether the information will have practical
utility;
--Evaluate the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information, including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
--Evaluate whether and if so how the quality, utility, and clarity of
the information to be collected can be enhanced; and
--Minimize the burden of the collection of information on those who are
to respond, including through the use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology, e.g., permitting electronic
submission of responses.
Abstract: The information collection is necessary for the safety of
emergency response personnel responding to fires at sites where
explosives are stored. Information Collection (IC) OMB 1140-0071 is
being revised to update the overall public burden, which includes the
monetized value of the hour burden per response, an increase of
respondents from 975 to 10,000, and increased postage cost from 49
cents to 73 cents. Together, these changes resulted in an increase in
annual burden hours from 488 to 5,000, an annual monetized value of the
hour burden increase to $223,950, and an annual increase in postage
costs from $359 to $1,825.
Overview of This Information Collection
1. Type of Information Collection: Revision of a previously
approved collection.
2. The Title of the Form/Collection: Notification to Fire Safety
Authority of Storage of Explosive Materials.
3. The agency form number, if any, and the applicable component of
the Department sponsoring the collection: Form number: None.
Component: Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives,
U.S. Department of Justice.
4. Affected public who will be asked or required to respond, as
well as the obligation to respond: Affected Public: State, local and
tribal governments, farms, individuals or households, Private Sector-
for or not for profit institutions. The obligation to respond is
mandatory per 27 CFR 555.201, 18 U.S.C. 842 (j), and 18 U.S.C. 846.
5. An estimate of the total number of respondents and the amount of
time estimated for an average respondent to respond: An estimated
10,000 respondents will respond to this collection once annually, and
it will take each respondent approximately 30 minutes to complete their
responses.
6. An estimate of the total annual burden (in hours) associated
with the collection: The estimated annual public burden associated with
this collection is 5,000, which is equal to 10,000 (total respondents)
* 1 (# of response per respondent) * 0.5 (30 minutes).
7. An estimate of the total annual cost burden associated with the
collection, if applicable: The total annual monetized value of the time
burden associated with this collection is $223,950 (10,000 total
responses * $22.395 cost per response). Over the three-year renewal
period for this ICR, the monetized value of the time burden (due to
annual notices) would be $671,850.
