may request funds to help purchase one 

vest per officer per fiscal year. Federal

of 4,500 responses. Each response will 

require approximately 1 hour to 

complete.

burden (in hours) associated with the 

collection: The total annual public 

burden hours for this information 

collection is estimated to be 5,000 

hours: 5,000 × 60 minutes per
