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.

    Overview of this information collection:
    (1) Type of Information Collection: New collection.
    (2) Title of the Form/Collection: Census of State and Local 
Prosecutor Offices Serving Tribal Lands/part of the State and Local 
Justice Agencies Serving Tribal Lands collection.
    (3) Agency form number, if any, and the applicable component of the 
Department of Justice sponsoring the collection: The form number for 
the collection is SLJASTL-15a. The applicable component within the 
Department of Justice is the Bureau of Justice Statistics, in the 
Office of Justice Programs.
    (4) Affected public who will be asked or required to respond, as 
well as a brief abstract: Prosecutor offices located in counties 
contiguous to federally recognized tribal lands will be asked to 
respond. The Census of State and Local Prosecutor Offices is the first 
national collection to gather data on the characteristics, functions, 
and resources of prosecutor offices that provide services to tribal 
lands.
    (5) An estimate of the total number of respondents and the amount 
of time estimated for an average respondent to respond: An estimated 
490 prosecutor offices will be asked to respond to the survey. About 
58% of those offices

[[Page 21397]]

located in contiguous counties are not expected to provide services to 
tribal lands and will be ineligible to complete the survey. For these 
entities the burden will be less than 5 minutes. Of the remaining 204 
prosecutor offices, we expect a 95% response rate, or 194 offices. It 
will take the average respondent an estimated 60 minutes to respond and 
15 minutes for any response verification.
    (6) An estimate of the total public burden (in hours) associated 
with the collection: There are an estimated 243 total burden hours 
associated with this collection.
