Overview of This Information Collection

    (1) Type of Information Collection: New collection.
    (2) The Title of the Form/Collection: State and Local Justice 
Agencies Serving Tribal Lands (SLJASTL): Census of State and Local 
Prosecutor Offices Serving Tribal Lands (CSLPOSTL).
    (3) The agency form number, if any, and the applicable component of 
the Department sponsoring the collection: No agency form number at this 
time. 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: Respondents will be general purpose state and 
local prosecutor offices. Abstract: Among other responsibilities, the 
Bureau of Justice Statistics is charged with collecting data regarding 
crimes occurring on tribal lands. The SLJASTL is the first effort by 
BJS to include state and local justice agencies responsible for 
policing and prosecuting crimes that occur on tribal lands. 
Specifically, the CSLPOSTL will collect information that will help fill 
the gaps we have in our understanding of the nature of crime on tribal 
lands. The data collection instrument is designed to capture 
administrative, operational and caseload data from prosecutor offices 
that investigate and prosecute crimes that occur on tribal lands. This 
survey is the first of its kind to describe the role that state and 
local prosecutor offices play in charging and prosecuting crimes that 
occur on tribal lands.

    (5) An estimate of the total number of respondents and the amount 
of time estimated for an average respondent to respond: An agency-level 
survey will be sent to approximately 250 offices. The expected burden 
placed on these respondents is about 60 minutes per respondent.
    (6) An estimate of the total public burden (in hours) associated 
with the collection: The total respondent burden is approximately 282 
burden hours.
