AGENCY: Bureau of the Census, Department of Commerce.

ACTION: Notice.

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

SUMMARY: On May 1, 2002 (67 FR 21962), the Bureau of the Census (Census 
Bureau) published a Federal Register Notice listing the areas that 
qualified as urbanized areas and urban clusters based on the results of 
Census 2000. The Census Bureau is correcting the lists of urbanized 
areas and urban clusters.

EFFECTIVE DATE: November 20, 2002.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On May 1, 2002 (67 FR 21962), the Census 
Bureau published a Federal Register Notice listing the areas that 
qualified as urbanized areas and urban clusters based on the results of 
Census 2000. The Census Bureau is correcting the lists of urbanized 
areas and urban clusters. The corrections contained in this Notice are 
in addition to the corrections that were published in a Federal 
Register Notice on August 23, 2002 (67 FR 54630). These corrections do 
not affect the earlier correction Notice.
    The Census Bureau is providing the following corrections to the 
original Notice.
    Page 21963, Column 3, Section A., Significant Urbanized Area 
Changes, Number 4, the Census Bureau is removing Section A.4 that reads 
as follows: ``One 1990 census urbanized area failed to qualify as a 
Census 2000 urbanized area: Cumberland, MD-WV.'' The Census Bureau is 
removing this Section as a result of a correction to the ``Urban Area 
Criteria for Census 2000'' Notice (67 FR 11663; March 15, 2002) that 
creates a Census 2000 urbanized area for the Cumberland, MD-WV-PA area. 
The criteria correction is being published in a separate Notice in this 
issue of the Federal Register.
    Page 21965, Column 3, Section B., List of Urbanized Areas, the 
Census Bureau is adding ``Cumberland, MD-WV-PA 52,115'' to the list of 
urbanized areas, as the 28th list item in Column 3 following Corvallis, 
OR. The Cumberland, MD-WV-PA, Urbanized Area includes the area in the 
previously published Census 2000 Cumberland, MD-WV-PA, Urban Cluster 
and the Frostburg, MD, Urban Cluster. This correction is being made as 
a result of a correction to the Urban Area Criteria for Census 2000. 
The former separate urban clusters of Cumberland, MD-WV-PA, and 
Frostburg, MD, are no longer recognized.

Executive Order 12866

    This Notice is not significant for purposes of Executive Order 
12866.

Administrative Procedure and Regulatory Flexibility Acts

    Because a Notice and opportunity for public comment are not 
required by 5 U.S.C. 553, or any other law, for lists of urbanized 
areas, this Notice is not subject to the analytical requirements of the 
Regulatory Flexibility Act. Thus, a Regulatory Flexibility Analysis is 
not required and none has been prepared (5 U.S.C. 603(a)).

Paperwork Reduction Act

    This Notice does not represent a collection of information subject 
to the requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act, Title 44, U.S.C., 
Chapter 35.

    Dated: November 15, 2002.

Director, Bureau of the Census.
