Submission for OMB Review;
Comment Request
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: U.S. Census Bureau.
Title: 2006 Census Test Coverage
Followup.
Form Number(s): DD–1301 (CFU) &
DD–1301 (HU–V).
Agency Approval Number: None.
Type of Request: New collection.
Burden: 9,266 hours.
Number of Respondents: 55,600.
Avg Hours Per Response: 10 minutes.
Needs and Uses: The U.S. Census
Bureau requests authorization from the
Office of Management and Budget to
conduct the 2006 Census Test Coverage
Followup (CFU) operation. Improving
coverage, or how well the Census
Bureau counts people and housing units
in the census, is one of the major goals
for the 2010 Census. To achieve this
goal, the Census Bureau is conducting
an iterative series of tests that will
provide an opportunity to evaluate new
or improved question wording,
methodology, technology, and
questionnaire design.
The 2006 Census Test is part of the
testing cycle, which was planned to
allow us to finalize methodologies and
operational procedures in time to
conduct a Dress Rehearsal in 2008 and
a successful census in 2010. The 2006
CFU operation is designed to improve
coverage by collecting additional
information from households that we
identify as having potential coverage
problems. This includes households
where we have reason to believe that
persons may have been counted more
than once (e.g., students who are
counted at their parents’ home but also
counted where they reside while they
are attending school) or persons who
might not have been included in the
household count (e.g., newborn babies
or roommates). During this operation,
we also will contact large households
containing more than six persons in
order to ensure that everyone is
included. Similarly, households where
the count of persons does not equal the
VerDate Aug<31>2005

number of persons for which census
data are provided will be contacted. We
will also attempt to contact households
that contain persons identified on
administrative records who were not
included on the appropriate census
questionnaire. Finally, the entire census
universe will be matched against itself
in an effort to resolve person
duplication at the housing level.
The 2006 CFU operation will be
conducted in selected locations in
Travis County, Texas and the Cheyenne
River Reservation and Off Reservation
Trust Land, South Dakota. Both
telephone interviews and personal visits
to gather information are planned.
Affected Public: Individuals or
households.
Frequency: One-time.
Respondent’s Obligation: Mandatory.
Legal Authority: Title 13 U.S.C.,
sections 141 and 193.
OMB Desk Officer: Susan Schechter,
