DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE
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: MAF and TIGER Linkage Activities.
Form Number(s): Will vary by activity.
Agency Approval Number: None.
Type of Request: New collection.
Burden: 1,195 hours.
Number of Respondents: 32,103.
Avg Hours Per Response: Two and one half minutes. [[Page 21791]]
Needs and Uses: The Census Bureau requests OMB approval for a generic
clearance to undertake a number of activities it plans to conduct to
create and update its Master Address File (MAF) and maintain the
linkage between the MAF and the Topologically Integrated Geographic
Encoding and Referencing (TIGER) data base of address ranges and
associated geographic information. These activities will be conducted
on a schedule to support preparations for the 2000 decennial census,
but also will support the address matching and geocoding requirements
of the proposed Continuous Measurement program, the population
estimates program, the economic and agriculture censuses, and the
current demographic surveys. This clearance will allow the Census
Bureau to focus its limited resources on operational planning and
procedural development activities. The activities to be conducted under
this clearance are: Listing, Update/Leave, MAF Reconciliation,
Canvassing, Block Splits, Field Verification, Master Address File
Quality Improvement Program (MAF QIP), the Address List Availability
Survey (ALAS), and the Rural Address Reference Availability Survey
(RARAS). The Census Bureau has conducted each category of activity (or
similar ones) previously and the burden remains relatively unchanged
from one time to another.
Affected Public: Individuals or households.
Frequency: One-time.
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
10201, New Executive Office Building, Washington, DC 20503.
Dated: April 27, 1995.
