                    (2)                     *Title of the Form/Collection:*                     Requirements Data Collection Application for the Juvenile Accountability Incentive Block Grants Program.                 

                    (3)                     *Agency form number, if any, and the applicable component of the Department sponsoring the collection:*                     The Office of Management and Budget Number for this collection is 1121-0234. The Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention, Office of Justice Programs, United States Department of Justice is sponsoring the collection.                 

                    (4)                     *Affected public who will be asked or required to respond, as well as a brief abstract:*                     Primary: State, Local or Tribal Government. The House of Representatives passed the Juvenile Accountability Incentive Block Grants (JAIBG) Act in 1997 under Title III of H.R. 3. Congress first funded the program through an appropriations act in fiscal year 1998 and authorized the Attorney General to provide grants under the JAIBG program for states and units of local government, to include tribal governments. They were to use these funds to support innovative, effective programs that reduce juvenile offending through accountability-based initiatives focusing on offenders and the juvenile justice system and that improve the efficiency of state juvenile justice systems. The Department of Justice Authorization Act of FY 2003 included provisions to change the name of the JAIBG program to the Juvenile Accountability Block Grants (JABG) program, expand the number and scope of the program areas, refine the program's reporting and monitoring requirements, and include program funding as part of Title I (Part R, Chapter 46, Subchapter XII-F) of the Omnibus Crime Control and Safe Streets Act. This legislation stated that the changes would go into effect as of FY 2004.                           ( print page 26836)    

                    (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 56 respondents an estimated 1 hour to respond to the application.                 

                    (6)                     *An estimate of the total public burden (in hours) associated with the collection:*                     The total estimated annual burden hours to complete the application is 4,200 hours.
