    The proposed collected is listed below.
    (1) Type of information collection. Reinstatement, with no change, 
of a previously approved collection for which approval has expired.
    (2) The title of the form/collection. Victims of Crime Act, Victim 
Assistance Grant Program, Performance Report.
    (3) The agency form number if any, and the applicable component of 
the Department sponsoring the collection.
    Form: OJP Admin. Form 7330 (Rev. 11/95)
    Office for Victims of Crime, Office of Justice Programs, U.S. 
Department of Justice
    (4) Affected public who will be asked or required to respond, as 
well as a brief abstract. Primary: State government Other: None
    (5) An estimated total of the number of respondents and the amount 
of time estimated for an average respondent to respond. The information 
to compile these reports will be drawn from victim assistance program 
data to the 57 respondents (grantees). The number of victim assistance 
vary widely from state to state. A state could be responsible for 
compiling subgrant data for as many as 186 programs (Texas) to as few 
as four programs (Guam). Therefore, the estimated clerical hours can 
range from 1 to 70 hours.
    (6) An estimate of the total burden (in hours) associated with the 
collection: The current estimated burden is 1,197 (20 hours per 
respondent (estimated median) + 1 hour per respondent for recordkeeping 
x 57 respondents = 1,197 hours). There is no increase in the annual 
recordkeeping and reporting burden.
    If additional information is required contact: Mr. Robert B. 
Briggs, Clearance Officer, United States Department of Justice, 
Information Management and Security Staff, Justice Management Division, 
Suite 850, Washington, D.C. 20530.
