Components of Coverage Error—The
two components of census coverage
error are census omissions (missed
persons or housing units) and erroneous
inclusions (persons or housing units
enumerated in the census that should
not have been). Examples of erroneous
inclusions are: Persons or housing units
enumerated in the census that should
not have been enumerated at all,
persons or housing units enumerated in
an incorrect location, and persons or
housing units enumerated more than
once (duplicates).
Net Coverage Error—Reflects the
difference between census omissions
and erroneous inclusions. A positive net
error indicates an undercount, while a
negative net error indicates an
overcount.

I. Abstract
Public Law 97–446, as amended by
Public Law 103–465, Public Law 106–
36, and Public Law 108–429, requires
the Departments of Commerce and the
Interior (Departments) to administer the

distribution of watch duty-exemptions
and watch and jewelry duty-refunds to
program producers in the U.S. insular
possessions and the Northern Mariana
Islands. The primary consideration in
collecting information is the
enforcement of the law and the
information gathered is limited to that
necessary to prevent abuse of the
program and to permit a fair and
equitable distribution of its benefits.
The ITA–334P is the principal program
form used for recording operational data
on the basis of which program
entitlements are distributed among the
producers. This form also serves as the
producer’s application to the
Departments for these entitlements and
is completed biannually by watch and
jewelry assemblers and manufacturers.
A proposed modification to form ITA–
334P is planned, by dividing it into four
forms, so that there is an annual and
mid-year application for watch
producers and an annual and mid-year
application for jewelry producers. This
would not involve any increase in the
amount of information collected.
II. Method of Collection
International Trade
Administration.
ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:

The form is sent to each watch and
