jurisdictions in the United States), State

prison administrators (one reporter from

each of the 50 States and the District of

Columbia) and State juvenile

correctional administrators (one reporter

from each of the 50 States and the

District of Columbia) responsible for

keeping records on inmates will be

asked to provide information for the

following categories: (a) During each

reporting quarter, the number of deaths

of persons in their custody; and

(b) As of January 1 and December 31

of each reporting year, the number of

male and female inmates in their

custody (local jails only); and

(c) Between January 1 and December

31 of each reporting year, the number of

male and female inmates admitted to

their custody (local jails only); and

(d) The name, date of birth, gender,

race/ethnic origin, and date of death for

each inmate who died in their custody

during each reporting quarter; and

(e) The admission date, legal status,

and current offenses for each inmate

who died in their custody during the

reporting quarter; and

(f) Whether or not an autopsy was

conducted by a medical examiner or

coroner to determine the cause of each

inmate death that took place in their

custody during the reporting quarter;

and

(g) The location and cause of each

inmate death that took place in their

custody during the reporting quarter;

and

(h) In cases where the cause of death

was illness/natural causes (including

AIDS), whether or not the cause of each

inmate death was the result of a preexisting medical condition, and whether

or not the inmate had been receiving

treatment for that medical condition;

and

As part of the conference agreement

for FY2000 appropriations, the Bureau

of Justice Statistics was directed by the

U.S. Congress ‘‘to implement a

voluntary annual reporting system of all

deaths occurring in law enforcement

custody.’’ BJS received OMB approval to

conduct such an annual collection

(OMB No. 1121–0249). In the time since

submitting that collection for OMB

approval, the President signed The

Deaths in Custody Act of 2000 into law

(PL 106–297). To comply with PL 106–

297’s new requirement for a quarterly

collection of inmate death data from

local jails, State prisons, juvenile

facilities and police custody, BJS is now

submitting for clearance the following

series of forms: NPS–4, NPS–4A, NPS–

5, NPS–5A, CJ–9, CJ–9A, CJ–10, and CJ–

10A.

This collection will supplement the

annual data on prison inmate deaths

which the Bureau of Justice Statistics

already collects as part of the National

Prisoners Statistics program and the

National Corrections Reporting Program.

The Bureau of Justice Statistics will use

this new information to publish an

annual report on deaths in custody. The

report will be made available to the U.S.

Congress, Executive Office of the

President, practitioners, researchers,

students, the media, and others

interested in criminal justice statistics

and data.

(5) An Estimate of the Total Number

of Respondents and the Amount of Time

Needed for an Average Respondent To

Respond Is Broken Down as Follows:

The total number of respondents for

this information collection is 3,185 and

the time per survey is as follows:

Local jails/quarterly—3,083 respondents

(average response time = 5 minutes +

30 minutes per reported death)

Local jails/annual—3,083 respondents

(average response time = 15 minutes)

State prisons/quarterly—51 respondents

(average response time = 5 minutes)

State prisons/quarterly addendum/

response time = 30 minutes per

reported death)

State juvenile corrections/quarterly—51

respondents (average response time =

5 minutes)

State juvenile corrections addendum/

quarterly—51 respondents (average

response time = 30 minutes per

reported death)

(6) An Estimate of the Total Public

produce data on current occupational

Act (JTPA) of 1982, and the Perkins

Vocational Education Act of 1984.

WIA mandates that the Secretary of

Labor shall oversee the development,

maintenance, and continuous

improvement of a nationwide

employment statistics system of

employment statistics that include—

‘‘(A) statistical data from cooperative

statistical survey projection programs

and data from administrative reporting

system that, taken together, enumerate,

estimate, and project employment

opportunities and conditions at

national, State and local levels in a

timely manner, including statistics on—

(ii) industrial distribution of

occupations, as well as current and

projected employment opportunities,

wages, benefits (where data is available),

and skill trends by occupation and

industry, with particular attention paid

to State and local conditions;’’

Administration

Trade Adjustment Assistance

Program; Designation of Certifying

Officers

AGENCY: Employment and Training

Administration, Labor.

ACTION: Notice of designation of

certifying officers.

SUMMARY: The trade adjustment

assistance program operates under the

Trade Act of 1974 to furnish program

benefits to domestic workers adversely

affected in their employment by imports

of articles which are like or are directly

competitive with articles produced by

the firm employing the workers. The

North American Free Trade AgreementTransitional Adjustment Assistance

amended the Trade Act of 1974 to

provide assistance to workers impacted

by a shift in production from the

workers’ firm to Mexico or Canada, or

increased company or customer imports

from Mexico or Canada of articles like

or directly competitive with those

produced by the workers’ firm. Workers

become eligible for program benefits

only if the worker group is certified

under the Act as eligible to apply for

adjustment assistance. From time to

time the agency issues an Order

designating officials of the agency

authorized to act as certifying officers.

Employment and Training Order No.

1–01, was issued to revise the listing of

officials designated as certifying

officers, superseding the previous

Order. Employment and Training Order

No. 1–01, is published below.

Signed at Washington, DC, this 10th day of

May 2001.

Raymond J. Uhalde,

Deputy Assistant Secretary of Labor,

Employment and Training Administration.
