DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES

National Institutes of Health

Proposed Collection; 60-Day Comment Request; NIH Division of 
Police Law Enforcement Forms (Office of the Director)

AGENCY: National Institutes of Health, HHS.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: In compliance with the requirement of the Paperwork Reduction 
Act of 1995 to provide opportunity for public comment on proposed data 
collection projects, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Office of 
the Director (OD) will publish periodic summaries of proposed projects 
to be submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for review 
and approval.

DATES: Comments regarding this information collection are best assured 
of having their full effect if received within 60 days of the date of 
this publication.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: To obtain a copy of the data 
collection plans and instruments, submit comments in writing, or 
request more information on the proposed project, contact: Peter 
``Rocky'' Whitesell, PRA Liaison, DQMP/OAM/OD/ORS/OM/OD/NIH, 31 Center 
Drive, Bethesda, MD 20892-2140 or call the non-toll-free number 240-
541-1165 or email your request, including your address to: 
[email protected]. Formal requests for additional plans and 
instruments must be requested in writing.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the Paperwork 
Reduction Act of 1995 requires: written comments and/or suggestions 
from the public and affected agencies are invited to address one or 
more of the following points: (1) Whether the proposed collection of 
information is necessary for the proper performance of the function of 
the agency, including whether the information will have practical 
utility; (2) The accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden of the 
proposed 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) Ways 
to minimizes 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.
    Proposed Collection Title: NIH Division of Police Law Enforcement 
Forms, 0925-NEW, Office of Security and Emergency Response (OSER), 
Office of the Director (OD), National Institutes of Health (NIH).
    Need and Use of Information Collection: The purpose of the 
submitted forms is to enable the continued operation of normal NIH 
Division of Police functions. The first form is for collecting 
statements and affidavits relating to incidents on campus, i.e., 
chronology of events, perspectives, etc. from witnessing parties. The 
second form is a police warning issued on campus by officers, to be 
signed by the person warned for different infractions, and potentially 
a recognition they are banned from campus. The third form is an 
authorization for release of information given out to potential hires 
with the NIH Division of Police, so that suitability for hiring can be 
determined with a normal background check. The fourth, fifth, and sixth 
forms are for collecting application information for extended visitor 
access on campus, for patients, non-patient professionals (such as 
researchers or those conducting business), and non-patient non-
professionals (such as patient visitors) respectively who have a need 
to more easily access campus for some period of time. These three forms 
allow an alternative to acquiring temporary access badges repeatedly.
    OMB approval is requested for 3 years. There are no costs to 
respondents other than their time. The total estimated annualized 
burden hours are 3,209.

                                                            Estimated Annualized Burden Hours
