Overview of This Information Collection

    1. Type of Information Collection: Extension of a currently 
approved collection.
    2. The Title of the Form/Collection: ASRE of Persons Arrested Under 
18 Years of Age; ASRE of Persons Arrested 18 Years of Age and Over.
    3. The agency form number, if any, and the applicable component of 
the Department sponsoring the collection: The form numbers are 1-708 
and 1-708a. The applicable component within DOJ is the CJIS Division in 
the FBI.
    4. Affected public who will be asked or required to respond, as 
well as the obligation to respond: Affected public would be federal, 
state, local, tribal, and territorial LEAs. The obligation to respond 
is voluntary.
    5. An estimate of the total number of respondents and the amount of 
time estimated for an average respondent to respond: There are 
approximately 3,381 LEA respondents submitting monthly for an estimated 
total of 40,572 responses for each form (3,381 LEAs x 12 months = 
40,572 responses. 40,572 x 2 = 81,144 responses total for both forms). 
The estimated time it takes for an average respondent to respond is 15 
minutes for form number 1-708 and 12 minutes for form number 1-708a.
    6. An estimate of the total annual burden (in hours) associated 
with the collection: With two forms for this collection, the responses 
for the total of both forms is 81,144, with 40,572 total responses for 
each individual form. Therefore, the estimated annual public burden is 
18,257 hours. [40,572 annual responses x 15 minutes per 1-708 
response]/60 minutes per hour = 10,143 hours. Additionally, 40,572 
annual responses x 12 minutes per 1-708a response]/60 minutes per hour 
= 8,114). (10,143 hours + 8,114 hours = 18,257 hours).
    7. An estimate of the total annual cost burden associated with the 
collection, if applicable:
