SUMMARY: The FBI, Criminal Justice Information Services (CJIS) Division

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:
