Agency: U.S. Census Bureau. Title: Annual Survey of Local Government Finances (School Systems). Form Number(s): F–33, F–33–I, F–33– L1, F–33–L2, F–33–L3. OMB Control Number: 0607–0700. Type of Request: Extension of a currently approved collection. Burden Hours: 4,032. Number of Respondents: 3,249. Average Hours per Response: 1 hour and 15 minutes. Needs and Uses: The U.S. Census Bureau requests an extension of the current expiration date of the Annual Survey of Local Government Finances (School Systems) to ensure accurate collection of information about public school finances. The Census Bureau’s collection of school district finance data and associated publications are the most comprehensive sources for prekindergarten through grade 12 finance data. The data are collected from the universe of school districts using uniform definitions and concepts of revenue, expenditure, debt, and assets. This effort is part of the Census Bureau’s Annual Survey of Government Finance (OMB No. 0607–0585). Data collected from cities, counties, States, and special district governments are combined with data collected from local school systems to produce State and national totals of government spending. Local school system spending comprises a significant portion of total government spending. In 2006, public elementary-secondary expenditures accounted for nearly 30 percent of total local government spending. This comprehensive, ongoing, time series collection of local education agency finances maintains historical continuity in the State and local government statistics community. In addition to the State and local government statistics historical significance, this collection of data has gained added importance within the area of education statistics since the reauthorization of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA) by the No Child Left Behind Act (NCLB). The increased focus on schools has led to a demand for data reflecting student E:\FR\FM\15MYN1.SGM 15MYN1
