DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE

Submission For OMB Review; Comment Request


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: U.S. Census Bureau.
    Title: 2002 Census of Governments, Prelist Survey of Special 
Districts.
    Form Number(s): G-24.
    Agency Approval Number: None.
    Type of Request: New collection.
    Burden: 1,520 hours.
    Number of Respondents: 3,039.
    Avg Hours Per Response: 30 minutes.
    Needs and Uses: The Census Bureau requests OMB approval of data 
collection Form G-24. This form will be used to update the universe 
list of special district governments for the 2002 Census of Governments 
authorized by Title 13 of the United States Code. This form will be 
used specifically to verify the existence of special districts for the 
2002 Census of Governments and to obtain current addresses and to 
identify new districts. The information requested on this form is 
identical to that requested in the prelist phase of the 1997 Census of 
Governments. The G-24 survey form will be imprinted with a list of 
known special districts within the areas of each of the 3,039 counties, 
consolidated city-county governments, and independent cities designated 
to receive the form. Respondents will use the G-24 form to update the 
listing by correcting the imprinted special district list and by 
reporting any additional districts. The mail canvass is supplemented by 
calls to major nonrespondents. Procedures, with the exception of using 
more advanced computer technology to generate the form imprinted with 
the list of known special districts, are the same as used for the 1997 
Prelist Survey.
    Affected Public: State, local, or Tribal government.
    Frequency: Every 5 years.
    Respondent's Obligation: Voluntary.
    Legal Authority: Title 13 USC, Section 161.
    OMB Desk Officer: Susan Schechter, (202) 395-5103.
    Copies of the above information collection proposal can be obtained 
by calling or writing Madeleine Clayton, Departmental Forms Clearance 
Officer, (202) 482-3129, Department of Commerce, room 6086, 14th and 
Constitution Avenue, NW, Washington, DC 20230 (or via the Internet at

    Written comments and recommendations for the proposed information 
collection should be sent within 30 days of publication of this notice 
to Susan Schechter, OMB Desk Officer, room 10201, New Executive Office 
Building, Washington, DC 20503.
