the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. 

The proposed information collection is 

published to obtain comments from the 

public and affected agencies. Comments 

are encouraged and will be accepted for 

‘‘sixty days’’ until July 9, 2007. This 

process is conducted in accordance with 

5 CFR 1320.10. 

If you have comments especially on 

the estimated public burden or 

associated response time, suggestions, 

or need a copy of the proposed 

information collection instrument with 

instructions or additional information, 

please contact Christopher Mumola, 

Bureau of Justice Statistics, 810 Seventh 

Street NW., Washington, DC 20531 

(phone: 202–353–2132). 

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: 

—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; 

—Evaluate the accuracy of the agencies 

estimate of the burden of the 

proposed collection of information, 

including the validity of the 

methodology and assumptions used; 

—Enhance the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected; and 

—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: 

New data collection. 

(2) Title of the Form/Collection: 

Former Prisoner Survey. 

(3) Agency form number, if any, and 

the applicable component of the 

Department of Justice sponsoring the 

collection: FPS (Survey Questionnaire), 

FPS–1 (Records Form), FPS–2 (Roster 

Verification Form), and FPS–C (Consent 

to Participate in Research). The Bureau 

of Justice Statistics, Office of Justice 

Programs, Department of Justice, is the 

sponsor for the collection. 

(4) Affected public who will be asked 

or required to respond, as well as a brief 

abstract: Primary: Individuals or 

Households. Other: State, Local, or 

Tribal Government. The work under this 

clearance will be used to develop 

surveys to produce national estimates 

for the incidence and prevalence of 

sexual assault within correctional 

facilities as required under the Prison 

Rape Elimination Act of 2003 (Pub. L. 

108–79). 

(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 16,500 

former prisoners will be interviewed. Of 

these, 87% (14,355) are estimated to be 

non-victims and will spend 

approximately 30 minutes on average 

responding to the survey, while 13% 

(2,145) will be victims and will spend 

approximately 40 minutes on average 

responding to the survey. 

Approximately 200 parole office 

groupings will be asked to develop and 

verify rosters of eligible parolees and 

provide background and contact 

information for those cases sampled. It 

is estimated that the rostering and 

verification process will average 

approximately 2 hours and 10 minutes 

per office. Providing contact and 

background information will average 

10.84 hours for the 140 smaller offices 

(with smaller sample sizes) and 21.67 

hours for the 60 larger offices (with 

larger sample sizes). The total average 

burden will thus be 13 hours for the 140 

smaller offices and 24 hours for the 60 

larger offices. 

(6) An estimate of the total public 

burden (in hours) associated with the 

collection: There are an estimated 

11,858 total burden hours associated 

with this collection.
