for the proper performance of the functions of the Bureau of Justice 
Statistics, including whether the information will have practical 
utility;

proposed collection of information, including the validity of the 
methodology and assumptions used;

the information to be collected can be enhanced; 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.

    Abstract: This information collection requires specific 
transactions for licensee/permittees and holders of user permits. These 
requirements are outlined in 27 CFR 555.103 and 555.105. Information 
Collection (IC) OMB 1140-0079 is being revised to reflect the decrease 
in total respondents (from 46,500 in 2021, to 3,391 in 2024) and the 
increase in total burden hours (from 23,250 hours in 2021 to 44,083 
hours in 2024). This IC Is also being revised to include the monetized 
cost of the hourly burden in this renewal of $1,983,735, which had not 
been included before.
