Agency Form Under Review by the Office of Management and Budget

    DOC has submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for 
clearance the following proposal for collection of information under 
the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. chapter 35).
    Agency: Bureau of the Census.
    Title: 1995 Census Test - Field Verification Operation.
    Form Number(s): DG-121(ADP), DG-131(ADP).
    Agency Approval Number: None.
    Type of Request: New collection.
    Burden: 310 hours.
    Number of Respondents: 6,190.
    Avg Hours Per Response: 3 minutes.
    Needs and Uses: A critical component in conducting a census is a 
current and accurate address list of all living quarters. The Census 
Bureau will use two primary methods to create and update its address 
files: precanvass in urban areas (enumerators systematically canvass 
census blocks to verify or update addresses on the census address list) 
and prelist in rural areas (enumerators systematically canvass census 
blocks to obtain the physical location address and/or the mailing 
address of all structures where people live or could live). In addition 
to these methods the Census Bureau will receive additional address 
update information from outside sources including the United States 
Postal Service, local governments, and the ``Be Counted!'' campaign. 
The added addresses from these outside sources will be field verified 
to confirm their existence before being added to the census address 
list. The 1995 Census Test - Field Verification Operation will help 
verify the accuracy and completeness of the Census Bureau's address 
control file that we will use for the delivery of census test 
questionnaires.
    Affected Public: Individuals or households.
    Frequency: One time only.
    Respondent's Obligation: Mandatory.
    OMB Desk Officer: Maria Gonzalez, (202) 395-7313.
    Copies of the above information collection proposal can be obtained 
by calling or writing Gerald Tache, DOC Forms Clearance Officer, (202) 
482-3271, Department of Commerce, room 5312, 14th and Constitution 
Avenue, NW, Washington, DC 20230.
    Written comments and recommendations for the proposed information 
collection should be sent to Maria Gonzalez, OMB Desk Officer, room 
3208, New Executive Office Building, Washington, DC 20503.

    Dated: July 6, 1994.
Gerald Tache,
Departmental Forms Clearance Officer, Office of Management and 
Organization.
