This survey, called the Census of Publicly Funded Forensic Crime Laboratories (CPFFCL), aims to collect data from state and local government agencies, specifically from 350 crime laboratories, on their staffing, budgets, and challenges. Public comments on the survey can be submitted until March 3, 2025, and participation in the survey is voluntary. The collected data will help provide insight into forensic crime laboratories and will be shared in published reports by the BJS.
Simple Explanation
The government wants to ask 350 crime labs about their work and any problems they face to learn more about them. They hope people will answer even though it's up to them, and they will use the information to make helpful reports.

The Department of Justice has announced a 60-day comment period for the proposed reinstatement of the Census of Publicly Funded Forensic Crime Laboratories. This collection aims to acquire updated data on personnel, budgets, and operations of federal, state, and local crime labs across the US. It's part of an effort to understand and improve lab efficiency, following a similar study from 2014. Public comments on the necessity and methodology of this data collection are encouraged until March 15, 2021.
Simple Explanation
The Department of Justice wants to check how crime labs get their work done, like who works there and how much money they have. They did a big check back in 2014 and plan to do it again. People have until March 15, 2021, to say if they think it's a good idea and how they might do it better.
