Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 106 / Thursday, June 4, 2009 / Notices 26849 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 

3506 of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 

1995 (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35) requires 

that the Office of Management and 

Budget (OMB) provide interested 

Federal agencies and the public an early 

opportunity to comment on information 

collection requests. OMB may amend or 

waive the requirement for public 

consultation to the extent that public 

participation in the approval process 

would defeat the purpose of the 

information collection, violate State or 

Federal law, or substantially interfere 

with any agency’s ability to perform its 

statutory obligations. The Director, 

Information Collection Clearance 

Division, Regulatory Information 

Management Services, Office of 

Management, publishes that notice 

containing proposed information 

collection requests prior to submission 

of these requests to OMB. Each 

proposed information collection, 

grouped by office, contains the 

following: (1) Type of review requested, 

e.g. new, revision, extension, existing or 

reinstatement; (2) Title; (3) Summary of 

the collection; (4) Description of the 

need for, and proposed use of, the 

information; (5) Respondents and 

frequency of collection; and (6) 

Reporting and/or Recordkeeping 

burden. OMB invites public comment. 

The Department of Education is 

especially interested in public comment 

addressing the following issues: (1) Is 

this collection necessary to the proper 

functions of the Department; (2) will 

this information be processed and used 

in a timely manner; (3) is the estimate 

of burden accurate; (4) how might the 

Department enhance the quality, utility, 

and clarity of the information to be 

collected; and (5) how might the 

Department minimize the burden of this 

collection on the respondents, including 

through the use of information 

technology.

Abstract: The School Survey on Crime 

and Safety (SSOCS) is a nationally 

representative survey of elementary and 

secondary school principals that serves 

as the primary source of school-level 

data on crime and safety in public 

schools. SSOCS is the only recurring 

federal survey collecting detailed 

information on the incidence, 

frequency, seriousness, and nature of 

violence affecting students and school 

personnel from the school’s perspective. 

Additionally, data are collected on 

frequency and types of disciplinary 

actions taken for select offenses; 

perceptions of other disciplinary 

problems, such as bullying, verbal abuse 

and disorder in the classroom; and 

school policies and programs 

concerning crime and safety. The 

SSOCS is done on a biennial basis in the 

spring of even-numbered years.
