SUMMARY: The FBI, Criminal Justice Information Services (CJIS) Division 
Department of Justice (DOJ), will be submitting the following 
information collection request to the Office of Management and Budget 
for review and approval in accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act 
of 1995.

DATES: Comments are encouraged and will be accepted for 60 days until 
December 14, 2026

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: If you have additional comments 
especially on the estimated public burden or associated response time, 
suggestions, or need a copy of the proposed information collection 
instrument with instructions or additional information, please contact 
Matthew B. Fancher, Crime and Law Enforcement Statistics Unit Chief, 
FBI, CJIS Division, Module D-1, 1000 Custer Hollow Road, Clarksburg, 
West Virginia 26306, 304-625-4830.

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 Federal Bureau of 
Investigation, 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: Under Title 34, United States Code, section 41303, and 
Title 28, Code of Federal Regulations, section 0.85(f), this collection 
requests homicide data from respondents for the FBI's Uniform Crime 
Reporting (UCR) Program to serve as the national clearinghouse for the 
collection and dissemination of homicide and other crime-related data 
and to publish these statistics. SHR collects details about all murders 
and nonnegligent manslaughters (including justifiable homicides) and 
negligent manslaughters. The details include the reporting agency; 
month and year; situation; age, sex, race, and ethnicity of the 
victim(s) and the offenders(s); weapon type used; relationship of the 
victim(s) to the offender(s); and circumstance(s) surrounding the 
incident (e.g., argument, robbery, gang related), if known.

Overview of This Information Collection

    1. Type of Information Collection: Extension of a previously 
approved collection.
    2. The Title of the Form/Collection: SHR.
    3. The agency form number, if any, and the applicable component of 
the Department. The form number is 1-704. The applicable component 
within DOJ is the CJIS Division, 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 law enforcement agencies (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: The estimated 
number of LEAs submitting SHR data to the UCR Program monthly via the 
Summary Reporting System is 3,381. Annually, those LEAs submit a total 
of 40,572 responses (3,381 x 12 months = 40,572 responses). The 
estimated time it takes for an average respondent to respond is nine 
minutes.
    6. An estimate of the total annual burden (in hours) associated 
with the collection: Annually, the estimated 3,381 LEAs submit an 
estimated 40,572 responses (3,381 LEAs x 1 annual submission = 40,572 
responses). Therefore, the estimated annual public burden is 6,086 
hours. ([40,572 annual responses x 9 minutes per response]/60 minutes 
per hour = 6,086 total annual hours.] According to the U.S. Bureau of 
Labor Statistics for 2023, the mean hourly wage of law enforcement 
officers is $36.80.
    Therefore, the monetary burden is an estimated $223,964.80 (6086 
annual hours x $36.80).
    7. An estimate of the total annual cost burden associated with the 
collection, if applicable:
