SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In 

accordance with the PRA (44 U.S.C. 

3501 et seq.) and 5 CFR 1320.8(d)(1), we 

invite the public and other Federal 

agencies to comment on new, proposed, 

revised and continuing collections of 

information. This helps the BLM assess 

impacts of its information collection 

requirements and minimize the public’s 

reporting burden. It also helps the 

public understand BLM information 

collection requirements and ensure 

requested data are provided in the 

desired format. 

A Federal Register notice with a 60- 

day public comment period soliciting 

comments on this collection of 

information was published on July 19, 

2023 (88 FR 46175). Nineteen (19) 

comments were received in response to 

that notice. These comments, along with 

the BLM’s response are summarized in 

the information collection request 

submitted to OMB and are available as 

noted in the ADDRESSES section of this 

notice. 

As part of our continuing effort to 

reduce paperwork and respondent 

burdens, we are again inviting the 

public and other Federal agencies to 

comment on the proposed ICR described 

below. The BLM is especially interested 

in public comment addressing the 

following: 

(1) Whether the collection of 

information is necessary for the proper 

performance of the functions of the 

agency, including whether the 

information will have practical utility. 

(2) The accuracy of our estimate of the 

burden for this collection of 

information, including the validity of 

the methodology and assumptions used. 

(3) Ways to enhance the quality, 

utility, and clarity of the information to 

be collected; and 

(4) How might the agency minimize 

the burden of the collection of 

information on those who are to 

respond, including the use of 

appropriate automated, electronic, 

mechanical, or other technological 

collection techniques or other forms of 

information technology, e.g., permitting 

electronic submission of response. 

Comments submitted in response to 

this notice are a matter of public record. 

Before including your address, phone 

number, email address, or other 

personal identifying information in your 

comment, you should be aware that 

your entire comment—including your 

personal identifying information—may 

be made publicly available at any time. 

While you can ask us in your comment 

to withhold your personal identifying 

information from public review, we 

cannot guarantee that we will be able to 

do so.

Abstract: Capital punishment 

information is collected by the Bureau 

of Justice Statistics (BJS) annually as 

part of the National Prisoner Statistics 

data series (NPS–8). These 

establishment surveys provide BJS with 

the capacity to report annually on 

changes in the size and composition of 

persons under State or Federal sentence 

of death and changes to the laws 

regulating the imposition and 

implementation of death sentences in 

the United States. The NPS–8 covers all 

persons held in a State or Federal 

correctional facility under sentence of 

death at any time during the calendar 

year. The coverage includes capital 

prisoners transferred from death row to 

non-correctional institutions, such as 

mental hospitals, and prisoners who 

may have escaped custody. Excluded 

are capital prisoners who for any reason 

remain in local correctional institutions 

outside the jurisdiction of State or 

Federal correctional authorities from 

whom data are collected for this series. 

NPS–8 also excludes persons who were 

convicted and sentenced to death under 

the Uniform Code of Military Justice. 

Information such as statutory, 

demographic, and criminal history data 

collected through NPS–8 is not 

attainable from any other single data 

source. 

Overview of This Information 

Collection 

1. Type of Information Collection: 

Reinstatement of a previously approved 

collection. 

2. The Title of the Form/Collection: 

Capital Punishment Report of Inmates 

Under Sentence of Death. 

3. The agency form number, if any, 

and the applicable component of the 

Department sponsoring the collection: 

The Capital Punishment Report of 

Inmates Under Sentence of Death (NPS– 

8) contains four forms: NPS–8 (Report of 

Inmates Under Sentence of Death; NPS– 

8A (Update Report of Inmates Under 

Sentence of Death); NPS–8B (Status of 

Death Penalty Statutes—No Statute in 

Force); and NPS–8C (Status of Death 

Penalty Statutes—Statute in Force). The 

applicable component within the 

Department of Justice is the Bureau of 

Justice Statistics, in the Office of Justice 

Programs. 

4. Affected public who will be asked 

or required to respond, as well as the 

obligation to respond: Affected Public— 

staff from State departments of 

correction, offices of State attorneys 

general, the Federal Bureau of Prisons, 

and the U.S. Attorney for the District of 

Columbia. The obligation to respond is 

voluntary. 

5. An estimate of the total number of 

respondents and the amount of time 

estimated for an average respondent to 

respond: The NPS–8 will collect data 

from an estimated 85 respondents from 

State departments of correction, the 

Federal Bureau of Prisons, State 

Attorneys General, and the U.S. 

Attorney for the District of Columbia. 

For each data collection cycle, we 

estimate an average burden of 30 

minutes for the NPA–8, 30 minutes for 

the NPS–8A, 15 minutes for the NPS– 

8B, and 15 minutes to complete the 

NPS–8C. We estimate that data quality 

follow-up is needed for 50% of NPS–8 

forms (10) and 5% of NPS–8A forms 

(124) and will run an average of 15 

minutes for each response. We estimate 

a 10-minute follow-up for 10% (5) of 

NPS–8B and NPS–8C respondents. 

6. An estimate of the total annual 

burden (in hours) associated with the 

collection: There are approximately 

1,292 total annual burden hours for this 

collection. 

7. An estimate of the total annual cost 

burden associated with the collection, if 

applicable: $41,596.
