The Juvenile Probation Census Project consists of two data collection instruments, to be administered in alternating years, to juvenile probation supervision offices in the country. The instruments (Census of Juvenile Probation Supervision Offices and the Census of Juveniles on Probation), will collect information about the number and characteristics of juveniles on probation and the activities of juvenile probation supervision offices.
US Code:
42 USC 3789g
Name of Law: The public health and welfare
The change in burden hours reflected in the 83-I form (item 13.f.2) is the result of two factors. The first factor is a change in plans for administering this collection so that we will only be conducting one of these collections each year. In other words, the CJPSO and the CJP will be conducted in alternating years, which lessens the burden on respondents. The second factor is an update on the size of the respondent universe. The original PRA request indicated a respondent universe of 1,715; based on our experience in administering this collection and updating our lists, the actual respondent universe size is about 1,606.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that the collection of information encompassed by this request complies with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR 1320.8(b)(3).
The following is a summary of the topics, regarding the proposed collection of information, that the certification covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;
(iii) Burden estimate;
(iv) Nature of response (voluntary, required for a benefit, or mandatory);
(v) Nature and extent of confidentiality; and
(vi) Need to display currently valid OMB control number;
If you are unable to certify compliance with any of these provisions, identify the item by leaving the box unchecked and explain the reason in the Supporting Statement.
