Overview of This Information 

(1) Type of information collection: 

Extension of the time frame required to 

complete approved and ongoing 

methodological research on the National 

Crime Victimization Survey continuing 

beyond June 30, 2012. Generic clearance 

for future methodological research on 

the National Crime Victimization 

Survey. 

(2) Title of the Form/Collection: 

National Crime Victimization Survey. 

(3) Agency form number, if any, and 

the applicable component of the 

department sponsoring the collection: 

n/a. 

(4) Affected public who will be asked 

or required to respond, as well as a brief 

abstract. Primary: Persons ages 12 or 

older are eligible for participation in the 

NCVS. This generic clearance will cover 

methodological research that will use 

existing or new sampled households 

with the same ages of respondents 

currently used in the NCVS. 

(5) An estimate of the total number of 

respondents and the amount of time 

estimated for an average respondent to 

respond/reply: For ongoing redesign 

projects that have received OMB 

clearance or are currently under review, 

approximately 26,200 persons ages 18 or 

older are participating in the 

methodological research. Under the 

2012 generic information clearance 

request, approximately 3,500 persons 

ages 18 or older will participate in the 

methodological research. The time for 

each respondent to participate will vary 

based on the study component. For 

studies currently in the field test stage, 

the average time to complete an 

interview request is 15 minutes. For 

developmental work such as cognitive 

interviewing and feasibility testing, the 

time for each respondent to participate 

will range from 1 to 2 hours. 

(6) An estimate of the total public 

burden (in hours) associated with the 

collection: For ongoing redesign projects 

that have received OMB clearance or are 

currently under review, the total 

respondent burden is approximately 

11,100 hours. Under the 2012 generic 

information clearance request, the total 

respondent burden is approximately 

1,800 hours for the three years of this 

clearance.

DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE 

Notice of Lodging Fifth Amendment To 

Consent Decree Pursuant to the Clean 

Air Act 

In accordance with 28 CFR 50.7, 

notice is hereby given that on April 16, 

2012, a proposed consent decree 

amendment in United States v. Sinclair 

Wyoming Refining Co., et al., Case No. 

08–cv–020–WFD, was lodged with the 

United States District Court for the 

District of Wyoming. 

The proposed Fifth Amendment To 

Consent Decree would resolve the 

United States’ claims against Sinclair 

Wyoming Refining Company (‘‘SWRC’’) 

under the original consent decree and 

Section 113(b) of the Clean Air Act, 42 

U.S.C. 7413(b), that resulted from the 

January 22, 2011 fire at SWRC’s refinery 

in Sinclair, Wyoming, that damaged the 

facility’s electrostatic precipitator (an 

emissions control device). Under the 

terms of the Fifth Amendment To 

Consent Decree, the SWRC will take 

action to obtain additional emissions 

reductions at SWRC’s refinery in 

Sinclair, Wyoming, that will more than 

offset the emissions that resulted from 

the fire. 

The Department of Justice will receive 

comments relating to the proposed 

consent decree amendment for a period 

of thirty (30) days from the date of this 

publication. Comments should be 

addressed to the Assistant Attorney 

General for the Environment and 

Natural Resources Division, Department 

of Justice, Washington, DC 20530, and 

should refer to United States v. Sinclair 

Wyoming Refining Co., et al., Case No. 

08–cv–020–WFD, and Department of 

Justice Reference No. 90–5–2–1–07793. 

During the public comment period, 

the consent decree amendment may be 

examined on the following Department 

of Justice Web site, http:// 

www.usdoj.gov/enrd/ 

Consent_Decrees.html. A copy of the 

consent decree amendment may also be
