the collection of information that such
persons are not required to respond to
the collection of information unless it
displays a currently valid OMB control
number.
National Agricultural Statistics Service
Title: Livestock Slaughter.
OMB Control Number: 0535–0005.
Summary of Collection: The primary
functions of the National Agricultural
Statistics Service (NASS) are to prepare
and issue current official State and
national estimates of crop and livestock
production, disposition and prices and
to collect information on related
environmental and economic factors.
General authority for data collection
activities is granted under U.S. Code
Title 7, Section 2204. This statue
specifies the ‘‘The Secretary of
Agriculture shall procure and preserve
all information concerning agriculture
which he can obtain * * * by the
collection of statistics * * * and shall
distribute them among agriculturists’’.
Information from federally and nonfederally inspected slaughter plants are
used to estimate total red meat
production. NASS will use a Federally
and non-Federally-inspected livestock
slaughter survey to collect data.
Need and Use of the Information:
NASS will combine information
collected from both types of plants to
estimate total red meat production,
consisting of the number of head
slaughtered plus live and dressed
weights of cattle, calves, hogs and
sheep. Accurate and timely livestock
estimates provide USDA and the
livestock industry with basic data to
project future meat supplies and
producer prices. Agricultural
economists in both the public and
private sectors use this information in
economic analysis and research.
Description of Respondents: Business
or other for-profit; Farms.
Number of Respondents: 2,900.
Frequency of Responses: Reporting:
Weekly, Monthly and Quarterly.
Total Burden Hours: 1,687.

Submission for OMB Review;
Comment Request
The Department of Commerce will
submit 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: Annual Survey of Manufactures.
VerDate Mar<15>2010
17:37 Sep 06, 2011
Jkt 223001
OMB Control Number: 0607–0449.
Form Number(s): MA–10000(L), MA–
10000(S), NC–99530.
Type of Request: Extension of a
currently approved collection.
Burden Hours: 181,120.
Number of Respondents: 51,000.
Average Hours Per Response: 2 hours
and 40 minutes.
Needs and Uses: The Census Bureau
is requesting an extension of the
currently approved collection for the
ASM. The Census Bureau has
conducted the ASM since 1949 to
provide key measures of manufacturing
activity during intercensal periods. In
census years ending in ‘‘2’’ and ‘‘7,’’ we
mail and collect the ASM as part of the
Economic Census Covering the
Manufacturing Sector. The ASM will be
included in the collection of the 2012
Economic Census and therefore all
collection activities for 2012 will be on
hiatus. In 2013, collection activities will
resume for this clearance.
The ASM statistics are based on a
survey that includes both mail and
nonmail components. The mail portion
of the survey is comprised of a
probability sample of approximately
51,000 manufacturing establishments
from a frame of approximately 117,000
establishments. These 117,000
establishments are primarily comprised
of manufacturing establishments of
multiunit companies (companies with
operations at more than one location)
and large single-location manufacturing
companies. The nonmail component is
comprised of the remaining small and
medium-sized single-location
companies, approximately 211,000. No
data are collected from companies in the
nonmail component. Data are directly
obtained from the administrative
records of the Internal Revenue Service
(IRS), the Social Security
Administration (SSA), and the Bureau
of Labor Statistics. The nonmail
companies account for 63 percent of the
population and for less than 7 percent
of the manufacturing output.
This survey is an integral part of the
Government’s statistical program. Its
results provide a factual background for
decision making by the executive and
legislative branches of the Federal
Government. Federal agencies use the
annual survey’s input and output data
as benchmarks for their statistical
programs, including the Federal Reserve
Board’s Index of Industrial Production
and the Bureau of Economic Analysis’
estimates of the gross domestic product.
The data also provide the Department of
Energy with primary information on the
use of energy by the manufacturing
sector to produce manufactured
products. These data also are used as
PO 00000
Frm 00002
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
benchmark data for the Manufacturing
Energy Consumption Survey, which is
conducted for the Department of Energy
by the Census Bureau. The Department
of Commerce uses the exports of
manufactured products data to measure
the importance of exports to the
manufacturing economy of each state.
Within the Census Bureau, the ASM
data are used to benchmark and
reconcile monthly and quarterly data on
manufacturing production and
inventories.
The ASM is the only source of
complete establishment statistics for the
programs mentioned above.
The ASM furnishes up-to-date
estimates of employment and payrolls,
hours and wages of production workers,
value added by manufacture, cost of
materials, value of shipments by class of
product, inventories, cost of employer’s
fringe benefits, operating expenses, and
expenditures for new and used plant
and equipment. The survey provides
data for most of these items for all 5digit and selected 6-digit industries as
defined in the North American Industry
Classification System (NAICS). We also
provide geographic data by state at a
more aggregated industry level.
The survey also provides valuable
information to private companies,
research organizations, and trade
associations. Industry makes extensive
use of the annual figures on product
class shipments at the U.S. level in its
market analysis, product planning, and
investment planning. State
development/planning agencies rely on
the survey as a major source of
comprehensive economic data for
policymaking, planning, and
administration.
The Ownership or Control forms will
be used to update the Business Register,
the basic sampling frame for many of
our current surveys. This enables us to
update establishments in the Census
Bureau’s Business Register that are
incorrectly identified as being singleestablishment firms.
Affected Public: Business or other forprofit.
Frequency: Annually.
Respondent’s Obligation: Mandatory.
Legal Authority: Title 13, United
States Code, Sections 182, 224, 225.
