SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION I. Abstract The Census Bureau plans to request an extension for the quarterly retirement PO 00000 Frm 00003 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 52981 survey. The quarterly survey was initiated by the Census Bureau in 1968 at the request of both the Council of Economic Advisers and the Federal Reserve Board. It gathers data on the assets of the 100 largest state and local government public-employee retirement systems. These systems hold over $2 trillion in assets, which represent approximately 90 percent of all state and local government public-employee retirement system assets. These important data are used by the Federal Reserve Board to track the public sector portion of the flow of funds accounts. The Bureau of Economic Analysis uses the data on corporate stock holdings to estimate dividends received by state and local government public-employee retirement systems. These estimates, in turn are used as a component in developing the national income and product accounts. II. Method of Collection Canvass methodology consists of a mail out/mail back questionnaire. Responses are screened manually, then put into an electronic format. No statistical methods are used to calculate the data. Respondents may choose to report their data over our Internet site. In addition to reporting current quarter data on the Internet, respondents may report for the first time for the previous two quarters or submit revisions to their previously submitted data if needed. In those instances when we are not able to obtain a response, estimates are made for nonrespondents based on historical data for that same system. III. Data OMB Number: 0607–0143. Form Number: F–10. Type of Review: Regular. Affected Public: State and local government retirement systems. Estimated Number of Respondents: 100. Estimated Time Per Response: 45 minutes. Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 300. Estimated Total Annual Cost: $5,934. Note.—Based upon the average hourly pay of $19.78 for full-time employment for the financial administration function for state government employees in the 2004 Survey of State and Local Government Employment. Respondent’s Obligation: Voluntary. Legal Authority: Title 13 U.S.C., Section 182. IV. Request for Comments Comments are invited on: (a) Whether the proposed collection of information is necessary for the proper performance E:\FR\FM\06SEN1.SGM 06SEN1
