    The Department of Justice, via the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF), is seeking public comments on its proposal to update information collection requirements for renewing a Federal Firearms License (FFL). This involves changes to ATF Form 8 (5310.11) Part II, which is used to renew licenses every three years as required by law. The form has been revised with major updates, including changes to sections and instructions. The public is encouraged to provide feedback on the necessity, accuracy, and potential burden of this information collection until January 15, 2025.

    The Department of Justice (DOJ) and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) are seeking public comments on a proposed information collection related to forensic firearm training for non-ATF employees. This notice is part of the process for revising a previously approved collection and the ATF is collecting feedback on the necessity, accuracy, and potential improvements of the collected information. The ATF Form 7110.15 is used to gather information from law enforcement personnel to register and evaluate training on firearms investigations. The deadline for comments is March 10, 2025, and the collection aims to refine the training request process and its efficiency.

    Simple Explanation

    The Department of Justice wants to hear what people think about their training program for police officers who are not part of their team but investigate gun-related crimes. They want feedback to make sure the training is helpful and worth the money, but they haven't done a good job explaining some changes, like why they need more people or costing more money this time.

    The Department of Justice's Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) plans to submit an information collection request regarding the storage of explosive materials for review by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB). This notice invites public comments on the necessity and effectiveness of this collection process. The proposal seeks to update the costs and burden for the entities involved, increasing the number of respondents dramatically from 975 to 10,000, and extending the burden hours from 488 to 5,000 annually. Comments will be accepted until March 10, 2025, through the website reginfo.gov.

    Simple Explanation

    The government wants to collect information about where people keep explosive materials, and they need more people to tell them about it, growing from about 1,000 people to 10,000. They are also spending more money to send letters, and some people are wondering if they're spending their time and money right.
