Transportation Annual Survey

AGENCY: Bureau of the Census, Commerce.

ACTION: Notice of determination.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: In accordance with Title 13, United States Code, Sections 131, 
182, 224, and 225, I have determined that 1994 operating revenue and 
expenses are needed for the for-hire trucking, and public warehousing 
industries to provide a sound statistical basis for the formation of 
policy by various governmental agencies, and that these 
[[Page 4884]] data also apply to a variety of public and business 
needs. These data are not publicly available from nongovernment or 
other governmental sources.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Thomas E. Zabelsky, Chief, Current 
Services Branch, Services Division, on (301) 457-2766.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Census Bureau is authorized to conduct 
surveys necessary to furnish current data on subjects covered by the 
major censuses authorized by Title 13, United States Code. This survey 
will provide continuing and timely national statistical data on 
trucking and warehousing services for the period between economic 
censuses. The next economic census is in 1997. The data collected in 
this survey will be within the general scope and nature of those 
inquiries covered in the economic censuses.
    The Bureau of the Census needs reports only from a limited sample 
of trucking and warehousing firms in the United States. The probability 
of a firm's selection is based on revenue size (estimated from 
payroll). The sample will provide with measurable reliability, national 
level statistics on operating revenue and expenses for these 
industries. We will mail report forms to the firms covered by this 
survey and require their submission within thirty days after receipt.
    A notice of consideration was published for this survey on December 
6, 1994, Volume 59, Number 233, page 62709. This survey has been 
submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), in accordance 
with the Paperwork Reduction Act, Public Law 96-511, as amended, and 
was approved under OMB Control Number 0607-0798. We will provide copies 
of the forms upon written request to the Director, Bureau of the 
Census, Washington, D.C. 20233.
    Based upon the foregoing, I have directed that an annual survey be 
conducted for the purpose of collecting these data.

    Dated: January 13, 1995.
Martha Farnsworth Riche,
Director, Bureau of the Census.
