Overview of This Information Collection

    1. Type of Information Collection: Extension of a currently 
approved collection.
    2. The Title of the Form/Collection: CRS ``Quality of Service'' 
Survey.
    3. The agency form number: CRS 1103-0111.
    4. Affected public who will be asked or required to respond, as 
well as a brief abstract:
    Primary: State and local elected officials, law enforcement 
executives, Education Administrators, community leaders, and others who 
receive CRS services.
    Abstract: The CRS Survey will be provided to those who engage in 
CRS services as our work concludes in a case. The result of the Survey, 
in aggregate, will be used to ensure that CRS is providing quality 
services, and to identify needed modifications and enhancements.
    5. An estimate of the total number of respondents and the amount of 
time estimated for an average respondent to respond: The Survey will be 
distributed to key participants in CRS cases at the conclusion of each 
case. This is estimated to be five people per case. CRS conducts 
approximately 500 cases per year. As such, CRS anticipates distributing 
approximately 2,500 surveys per year. Since the Survey is voluntary, 
CRS anticipates a response rate of approximately ten percent, which 
would result in 250 responses annually. It is estimated that completing 
the Survey will take less than three minutes per respondent. The 
estimated total public burden hours associated with this collection is 
12.5 hours per fiscal year.
    6. An estimate of the total public burden (in hours) associated 
with the collection: 2,282.6 annual burden hours. There are an 
estimated 125 annual total CRS burden hours associated with this 
collection.
