Annual Surveys in the Manufacturing
Area
Bureau of the Census,
Commerce.
ACTION: Notice of determination.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: The Bureau of the Census
(Census Bureau) is conducting the 2007
Annual Surveys in the Manufacturing
Area. The 2007 Annual Surveys consist
of the Current Industrial Reports
surveys and the Survey of Industrial
Research and Development. We have
determined that annual data collected
from these surveys are needed to aid the
efficient performance of essential
governmental functions and have
significant application to the needs of
the public and industry. The data
derived from these surveys, most of
which have been conducted for many
years, are not publicly available from
non-governmental or other
governmental sources. As in prior years,
these surveys will operate as separate
collections of national statistical data on
manufacturing. Because 2007 is an
economic census year, the 2007 Annual
Survey of Manufactures is being
conducted as part of the economic
census and is not covered in this notice
of determination. The following two
annual surveys in the manufacturing
area will not be conducted in 2007:
Survey of Plant Capacity Utilization,
and the Survey of Pollution Abatement
Costs and Expenditures.
ADDRESSES: The Census Bureau will
furnish report forms to organizations
included in each survey. Additional
copies of the surveys are available upon
written request to the Director, U.S.
Census Bureau, Washington, DC 20233–
0101.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Thomas E. Zabelsky, Chief,
Manufacturing and Construction
Division, on (301) 763–4598.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Census Bureau is authorized to conduct
mandatory surveys necessary to furnish
current data on the subjects covered by
the major censuses authorized by Title
13, United States Code, sections 61, 81,
131, 182, 193, 224, and 225. The data
collected in the annual surveys in the
manufacturing area will be similar to
those collected in the past and within
the general scope and nature of those
inquiries covered in the economic
census year; all the data collected in
these surveys are mandatory under the
PO 00000
Frm 00004
Fmt 4703

authority of the sections of Title 13,
U.S.C., mentioned above. In the interim
years, most of these surveys are
conducted under a mandatory basis as
well.
As in prior years, these surveys will
operate as separate collections of
national statistical data on
manufacturing. Because 2007 is an
economic census year, the 2007 Annual
Survey of Manufactures is being
conducted as part of the economic
census and is not covered in this notice
of determination. Two annual surveys
in the manufacturing area will not be
conducted in 2007. First, because the
assessment of plant capacity utilization
will be made on a quarterly basis for
2007, the Annual Survey of Plant
Capacity Utilization will not be
conducted this year. Second, the
Annual Survey of Pollution Abatement
Costs and Expenditures will not be
conducted this year because the
partnering agency for this survey has
determined not to collect these data for
2007.
Current Industrial Reports
Most of the following commodity or
product surveys provide data on
shipments or production, stocks,
unfilled orders, orders booked,
consumption, and so forth. Reports will
be required of all, or a sample of,
establishments engaged in the
production of the items covered by the
following list of surveys:

Notwithstanding any other provision
of law, no person is required to respond

Annual Surveys under the following

Based upon the foregoing, I have
directed that the Annual Surveys in the
Manufacturing Area be conducted for
the purpose of collecting these data.

AGENCY:
SUMMARY: In accordance with Title 13,
United States Code (U.S.C.), sections
182, 224, and 225, the Bureau of the
Census (Census Bureau) has determined
that limited financial data (revenue,
expenses, and the like) for selected
service industries are needed to provide
a sound statistical basis for the
formation of policy by various
governmental agencies. These data also
apply to a variety of public and business
needs. To obtain the desired data, the
Census Bureau announces the
administration of the 2007 Service
Annual Survey (SAS).
ADDRESSES: The Census Bureau will
furnish report forms to respondents
included in the survey, and additional
copies are available upon written
request to the Director, Census Bureau,
Washington, DC 20233–0101.

The
Census Bureau conducts surveys
necessary to furnish current data on
subjects covered by the major censuses
authorized by Title 13, U.S.C. The SAS
provides continuing and timely national
statistical data each year. Data collected
in this survey are within the general
scope, type, and character of those
inquiries covered in the Economic
Census. For 2007, the economic census
year, the SAS will, as it has in the past,
operate as a separate sample of selected
service industries.
The Census Bureau needs reports only
from a limited sample of service sector
firms in the United States. The SAS now
covers all or some of the following nine
sectors: Transportation and
Warehousing; Information; Finance and
Insurance; Real Estate and Rental and
Leasing; Professional, Scientific, and
Technical Services; Administrative and
Support and Waste Management and
Remediation Services; Health Care and
Social Assistance; Arts, Entertainment,
and Recreation; and Other Services. The
probability of a firm’s selection is based
on its revenue size (estimated from
payroll); that is, firms with a larger
payroll will have a greater probability of
being selected than those with smaller
ones. We are mailing report forms to the
firms covered by this survey and require
their submission within 30 days after
receipt. These data are not publicly
available from non-government or other
government sources. Based upon the
foregoing, the Census Bureau is
conducting the 2007 SAS for the
purpose of collecting these data.
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, Title 44
U.S.C., Chapter 35, the OMB approved
the SAS under OMB Control Number
0607–0422.
