The Census E:\FR\FM\26JAN1.SGM 26JAN1 3672 Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 16 / Wednesday, January 26, 2005 / Notices Bureau collects and compiles this information in accordance with a joint project agreement between the National Science Foundation (NSF) and the Census Bureau. The NSF publishes the results in its publication series. Five data items in the survey provide interim statistics collected in the Census Bureau’s economic censuses. These items (total company sales, total employment, total expenditures for research and development conducted within the company, federally-funded expenditures for research and development conducted within the company, and total expenditures and federally-funded expenditures for research and development within the company by state) are collected on a mandatory basis under the authority of Title 13, United States Code. Responses to all other data collected are voluntary. Survey of Plant Capacity Utilization The Survey of Plant Capacity Utilization is designed to measure the use of industrial capacity. The survey collects information on actual output and estimates of potential output in terms of value of production. These data are the basis for calculating rates of utilization of full production capability and use of production capability under national emergency conditions. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, no person is required to respond to, nor shall a person be subject to a penalty for failure to comply with, a collection of information subject to the requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) unless that collection of information displays a current, valid Office of Management and Budget (OMB) control number.

Annual Survey of Manufactures

    The Annual Survey of Manufactures collects industry statistics, 
such as total value of shipments, employment, payroll, workers' hours, 
capital expenditures, cost of materials consumed, supplemental labor 
costs, and so forth. This survey, conducted on a sample basis, covers 
all manufacturing industries, including data on plants under 
construction but not yet in operation.

Survey of Industrial Research and Development

    The Survey of Industrial Research and Development measures spending 
on research and development activities in private U.S. businesses. The 
Census

[[Page 3672]]

Bureau collects and compiles this information in accordance with a 
joint project agreement between the National Science Foundation (NSF) 
and the Census Bureau. The NSF publishes the results in its publication 
series. Five data items in the survey provide interim statistics 
collected in the Census Bureau's economic censuses. These items (total 
company sales, total employment, total expenditures for research and 
development conducted within the company, federally-funded expenditures 
for research and development conducted within the company, and total 
expenditures and federally-funded expenditures for research and 
development within the company by state) are collected on a mandatory 
basis under the authority of Title 13, United States Code. Responses to 
all other data collected are voluntary.

Survey of Plant Capacity Utilization

    The Survey of Plant Capacity Utilization is designed to measure the 
use of industrial capacity. The survey collects information on actual 
output and estimates of potential output in terms of value of 
production. These data are the basis for calculating rates of 
utilization of full production capability and use of production 
capability under national emergency conditions.
    Notwithstanding any other provision of law, no person is required 
to respond to, nor shall a person be subject to a penalty for failure 
to comply with, a collection of information subject to the requirements 
of the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) unless that collection of 
information displays a current, valid Office of Management and Budget 
(OMB) control number. In accordance with the PRA, 44 U.S.C., Chapter 
45, the OMB approved the 2003 Annual Surveys under the following OMB 
control numbers: Current Industrial Reports--0607-0392, 0607-0395, and 
0607-0476; Annual Survey of Manufactures--0607-0449; Survey of 
Industrial Research and Development--3145-0027; and Survey of Plant 
Capacity Utilization--0607-0175. We will provide copies of each form 
upon written request to the Director, U.S. Census Bureau, Washington, 
DC 20233-0001.
    Based upon the foregoing, I have directed that the Annual Surveys 
in the Manufacturing Area be conducted for the purpose of collecting 
these data.
