to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for review and approval in 
accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. The proposed

at 82 FR 39136 on August 17, 2017, allowing for a 60 day comment 
period.

DATES: Comments are encouraged and will be accepted for 30 days until

[email protected]. Written comments and/or suggestions can 
also be sent to the Office of Management and Budget, Office of 
Information and Regulatory Affairs, Attention Department of Justice 
Desk Officer, Washington, DC 20530 or sent to

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:
    (1) Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is 
necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency, 
including whether the information will have practical utility;
    (2) 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;
    (3) Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to 
be collected; and
    (4) 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: Revisions to a currently 
approved collection.
    (2) Title of the Form/Collection: Semi-Annual Progress Report for 
Grantees from the Rural Domestic Violence, Dating Violence, Sexual 
Assault, Stalking, and Child Abuse Enforcement Assistance Program.
    (3) Agency form number, if any, and the applicable component of the 
Department of Justice sponsoring the collection: Form Number: 1122-
0013. U.S. Department of Justice, Office on Violence Against Women.
    (4) Affected public who will be asked or required to respond, as 
well as a brief abstract: The affected public includes the 
approximately 165 grantees of the Rural Program. The primary purpose of 
the Rural Program is to enhance the safety of victims of domestic 
violence, dating violence, sexual assault, stalking, and child 
victimization by supporting projects uniquely designed to address and 
prevent these crimes in rural jurisdictions. Grantees include States, 
Indian tribes, local governments, and nonprofit, public or private 
entities, including tribal nonprofit organizations, to carry out 
programs serving rural areas or rural communities.
    OVW is proposing revisions to the progress reporting form to 
reflect statutory changes as a result of the reauthorization of grant 
programs in 2013 which included permitting grant funds to support the 
provision of legal services and the addition of new strategies to 
address sexual assault and special needs of victims in remote areas 
including providing training for Community Health aides involved in 
Indian Health Services programs.
    (5) An estimate of the total number of respondents and the amount 
of time estimated for an average respondent to respond/reply: It is 
estimated that it will take the approximately 165 respondents (Rural 
Program grantees) approximately one hour to complete a semi-annual 
progress report. The semi-annual progress report is divided into 
sections that pertain to the different types of activities in which 
grantees may engage (services, law enforcement, training etc.). A Rural 
Program grantee will only be required to complete the sections of the 
form that pertain to its own specific activities.

[[Page 49854]]

    (6) An estimate of the total public burden (in hours) associated 
with the collection: The total annual hour burden to complete the data 
collection forms is 330 hours, that is 165 grantees completing a form 
twice a year with an estimated completion time for the form being one 
hour.
