AGENCY: Office of Justice Programs, 

Department of Justice. 

ACTION: 30-Day notice. 

SUMMARY: The Department of Justice, 

Office of Justice Programs, Bureau of 

Justice Assistance is submitting the 

following information collection request 

to the Office of Management and Budget 

(OMB) for review and approval in 

accordance with the Paperwork 

Reduction Act of 1995. 

DATES: The Department of Justice 

encourages public comment and will 

accept input until August 8, 2022. 

ADDRESSES: Written comments and 

recommendations for the proposed 

information collection should be sent 

within 30 days of publication of this 

notice to www.reginfo.gov/public/do/ 

PRAMain. Find this particular 

information collection by selecting 

‘‘Currently under 30-day Review—Open 

for Public Comments’’ or by using the 

search function. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Written 

comments and suggestions from the 

public and affected agencies concerning 

the proposed collection of information 

are encouraged. Your comments should 

address one or more of the following 

four points: 

—Evaluate whether the proposed 

collection of information is necessary 

for the proper performance of the 

functions of the Bureau of Justice 

Assistance, including whether the 

information will have practical utility; 

—Evaluate 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; 

—Evaluate whether and if so how the 

quality, utility, and clarity of 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. 

Overview of This Information 

Collection 

1. Type of Information Collection: 

Reinstatement without change of a 

previously approved collection. 

2. The Title of the Form/Collection: 

National Motor Vehicle Title 

Information System (NMVTIS). 

3. The agency form number: There is 

no form number associated with this 

information collection. Bureau of Justice 

Assistance, Office of Justice Programs, 

United States Department of Justice. 

4. Affected public who will be asked 

or required to respond, as well as a brief 

abstract: Auto recyclers, junk yards and 

salvage yards are required to report 

information into NMVTIS. The Anti-Car 

Theft Act, defines junk and salvage 

yards ‘‘as individuals or entities 

engaged in the business of acquiring or 

owning junk or salvage automobiles for 

resale in their entirety or as spare parts 

or for rebuilding, restoration, or 

crushing.’’ Included in this definition 

are scrap-vehicle shredders and scrapmetal processors, as well as ‘‘pull- or 

pick-apart yards,’’ salvage pools, salvage 

auctions, and other types of auctions, 

businesses, and individuals that handle 

salvage vehicles (including vehicles 

declared a ‘‘total loss’’). 

Abstract: Reporting information on 

junk and salvage vehicles to the 

National Motor Vehicle Title 

Information System (NMVTIS)— 

supported by the U.S. Department of 

Justice (DOJ)—is required by federal 

law. Under federal law, junk and 

salvage yards must report certain 

information to NMVTIS on a monthly 

basis. This legal requirement has been 

in place since March 2009, following 

the promulgation of regulations (28 CFR 

part 25) to implement the junk- and 

salvage-yard reporting provisions of the 

Anti-Car Theft Act (codified at 49 U.S.C. 

30501–30505). Accordingly, a junk or 

salvage yard within the United States 

must, on a monthly basis, provide an 

inventory to NMVTIS of the junk or 

salvage automobiles that it obtained (in 

whole or in part) in the prior month. 28 

CFR 25.56(a). 

An NMVTIS Reporting Entity 

includes any individual or entity that 

meets the federal definition, found in 

the NMVTIS regulations at 28 CFR 

25.52, for a ‘‘junk yard’’ or ‘‘salvage 

yard.’’ According to those regulations, a 

junk yard is defined as ‘‘an individual 

or entity engaged in the business of 

acquiring or owning junk automobiles 

for—(1) Resale in their entirety or as 

spare parts; or (2) Rebuilding, 

restoration, or crushing.’’ The 

regulations define a salvage yard as ‘‘an 

individual or entity engaged in the 

business of acquiring or owning salvage 

automobiles for—(1) Resale in their 

entirety or as spare parts; or (2) 

Rebuilding, restoration, or crushing.’’ 

These definitions include vehicle 

remarketers and vehicle recyclers, 

including scrap vehicle shredders and 

scrap metal processors as well as ‘‘pullor pick-apart yards,’’ salvage pools, 

salvage auctions, used automobile 

dealers, and other types of auctions 

handling salvage or junk vehicles 

(including vehicles declared by any 

insurance company to be a ‘‘total loss’’ 

regardless of any damage assessment). 

Businesses that operate on behalf of 

these entities or individual domestic or 

international salvage vehicle buyers, 

sometimes known as ‘‘brokers’’ may also 

meet these regulatory definitions of 

salvage and junk yards. It is important 

to note that industries not specifically 

listed in the junk yard or salvage yard 

definition may still meet one of the 

definitions and, therefore, be subject to 

the NMVTIS reporting requirements. 

An individual or entity meeting the 

junk yard or salvage yard definition is 

subject to the NMVTIS reporting 

requirements if that individual or entity 

handles 5 or more junk or salvage motor 

vehicles per year and is engaged in the 

business of acquiring or owning a junk 

automobile or a salvage automobile 

for—‘‘(1) Resale in their entirety or as 

spare parts; or (2) Rebuilding, 

restoration, or crushing.’’ Reporting 

entities can determine whether a vehicle 

is junk or salvage by referring to the 

definitions provided in the NMVTIS 

regulations at 28 CFR 25.52. An 

NMVTIS Reporting Entity is required to 

report specific information to NMVTIS 

within one month of receiving such a 

vehicle, and failure to report may result 

in assessment of a civil penalty of 

$1,000 per violation. 

5. An estimate of the total number of 

respondents and the amount of time 

estimated for an average respondent to 

respond: There are 50,383 in JSI 

(meaning entities issued a reporting ID 

number), of which 21,612 have 

submitted at least one report. The 

estimate for the average amount of time 


khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with NOTICES
40554 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 129 / Thursday, July 7, 2022 / Notices 

for each business to report varies: 30–60 

minutes (estimated). The states and 

insurance companies already are 

capturing most of the data needed to be 

reported, and the reporting consists of 

electronic, batch uploaded information. 

So, for those automated companies the 

reporting time is negligible. For smaller 

junk and salvage yard operators who 

would enter the data manually, it is 

estimated that it will take respondents 

an average of 30–60 minutes per month 

to respond. 

6. An estimate of the total public 

burden (in hours) associated with the 

collection: An estimate of the total 

public burden (in hours) associated with 

the collection is approximately 129,000 

to 259,000 hours. 

Total Annual Reporting Burden 

21,612 × 30 minutes per month (12 

times per year) = 648,360 

21,612 × 60 minutes per month (12 

times per year) = 1,296,720

Overview of This Information 

Collection 

1. Type of Information Collection: 

reinstatement without change of a 

previously approved collection. 

2. The Title of the Form/Collection: 

Public Safety Officer Medal of Valor 

(Pub. L. 107–12). 

3. The agency form number: There is 

no form number associated with this 

information collection. The nomination 

process is managed through the internet, 

using the Office of Justice Programs’ 

(OJP) Public Safety Officer Medal of 

Valor (MOV) online nomination system 

at: https://bja.ojp.gov/program/ 

medalofvalor. 

4. Affected public who will be asked 

or required to respond, as well as a brief 

abstract: The information that is being 

collected is solicited from federal, state, 

local and tribal public safety agencies, 

who wish to nominate their personnel 

to receive the Public Safety Officer 

Medal of Valor (MOV). This information 

is provided on a voluntary basis, 

includes agency and nominee 

information along with details about the 

events for which the nominees are to be 

consider when determining who will be 

recommended to receive the MOV. 

5. An estimate of the total number of 

respondents and the amount of time 

estimated for an average respondent to 

respond: The recordkeeping and 

reporting requirements established by 

the PREA standards are based on 

incidents of sexual abuse. An estimated 

13,119 covered facilities nationwide are 

required to comply with the PREA 

standards. If all covered facilities were 

to fully comply with all of the PREA 

standards, the new burden hours 

associated with the staff time that would 

be required to collect and maintain the 

information and records required by the 

standards would be approximately 1.16 

million in the first year of full 

compliance, or about 89 hours per 

facility. 

6. An estimate of the total public 

burden (in hours) associated with the 

collection: Base upon the average 

number of submissions over the 

referenced two-year period, and the 

estimated time required to complete 

each submission, the estimated annual 

public burden would be 56.45 hours. 

a. 135.5 × 25 minutes = 3,387.5 minutes/ 

60 = 56.45 hours.
