Overview of This Information Collection

    (1) Type of Information Collection: Reinstatement, with change, of 
a previously approved collection for which approval has expired: 2016 
Law Enforcement Administrative and Management Statistics (LEMAS) 
survey.

well as a brief abstract: Respondents will be general purpose state,

enforcement agencies. Since 1987, BJS has collected information about 
the personnel, policies, and practices of law enforcement agencies via 
the Law Enforcement Management and Administrative Statistics (LEMAS) 
survey. This core survey, which has been administered every 4 to 6 
years, has been used to produce nationally representative estimates on 
the demographic characteristics of sworn personnel, hiring practices, 
operations, equipment, technology, and agency policies and procedures. 
BJS plans to publish this information in reports and reference it when 
responding to queries from the U.S. Congress, Executive Office of the 
President, the U.S. Supreme Court, state officials, international 
organizations, researchers, students, the media, and others interested 
in criminal justices statistics.

on these respondents is about 3 hours per respondent. The burden 
estimate is based on data from prior administrations of the LEMAS.

with the collection: There is an estimated 10,497 total burden hours 
associated with this collection.
