SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On March 15, 2002 (67 FR 11663), the Census 
Bureau published a Federal Register Notice of Final Program Criteria 
announcing its criteria for defining urban and rural territory based on 
the results of Census 2000. The Census Bureau is correcting the final 
criteria as they apply to Guam.
    The Census Bureau is providing the following correction to the 
original Notice.
    Page 11667, Column 1, first paragraph under the ``Urban Area 
Criteria for Census 2000'' heading: ``The following criteria apply to 
the 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, American Samoa, 
Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands, and the Virgin Islands of the 
United States'' is corrected to read, ``The following criteria apply to 
the 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, American Samoa, 
the Northern Mariana Islands, and the Virgin Islands of the United 
States. The criteria also can be applied to Guam, at the request of the 
Governor. Lacking such a request, all urban population in Guam, 
regardless of cluster size, will be designated as in ``urban 
clusters.''
    This correction is provided in accordance with an agreement between 
the Census Bureau and the government of Guam. All urban areas defined 
within Guam based on the results of Census 2000 are designated as urban 
clusters regardless of their total population.
