Overview of This Information Collection

    (1) Type of Information Collection: Approval of a new collection.
    (2) Title of the Form/Collection: Federal Bureau of Investigation 
Laboratory Division Survey of Forensic Science Services.
    (3) Agency Form Number: The form is unnumbered.
    (4) Affected public who will be asked or required to respond, as 
well as a brief abstract: This form will be utilized by the FBI 
Laboratory Division to collect feedback from state and local law 
enforcement agencies that have used the FBI Laboratory Division for 
forensic science examinations. The results of this survey will inform a 
five year forensic discipline portfolio projection for the Laboratory 
Division. The Laboratory Division is using this survey as a tool to 
answer questions about what their specific forensic science priorities 
are and how they value each forensic discipline; whether the Laboratory 
Division is servicing these specific needs; what they perceive as 
strengths and weaknesses of the FBI LD, and if they've identified 
trends in criminal investigations that a laboratory should be 
addressing.
    (5) An estimate of the total number of respondents and the amount 
of time estimated for an average respondent to respond: It is estimated 
that 1,000 respondents will respond. We estimate the form will be 
completed within approximately 30 minutes.
    (6) An estimate of the total public burden (in hours) associated 
with the collection: There are an estimated 500 total annual burden 
hours associated with this collection.
