OMB Control Number: None.
Form Number(s): NA.
Type of Request: Regular submission
(request for a new information
collection).
Number of Respondents: 1,320.
Average Hours Per Response: Primary
survey, 20 minutes; non-response
survey, 5 minutes.

Under the authority of the Marine
Debris Research, Prevention, and
Reduction Act (Marine Debris Act of
2012, 33 U.S.C. 1951 et seq., as
amended by Title VI of Pub. L. 112–
213), NOAA’s Marine Debris Division
(MDD) is conducting a pilot project
VerDate Mar<15>2010

Jkt 229001
designed to assess the economic benefits
to beach visitors of marine debris
removal. The project will use a revealed
preference valuation approach (a
random utility travel cost model) to
assess benefits associated with marine
debris removal at selected beaches in
Southern California. The MDD intends
to conduct a mail survey of Orange
County, California households in order
to gather beach trip data required to
estimate the model. The pilot project
will provide information for use in
assessing and prioritizing future efforts
to reduce or remove marine debris. The
project will also lay the groundwork for
additional research related to economic
benefits, providing information about
the types of marine debris that beach
visitors are concerned about and about
potential economic modeling
challenges.
Affected Public: Individuals or
households.
Frequency: One time.
Respondent’s Obligation: Voluntary.

Number of Respondents: 7,384.
Average Hours per Response: 16 and
a half minutes.
Needs and Uses: The U.S. Census
Bureau requests a revision to the
Quarterly Summary of State and Local
Government Tax Revenues to ensure
accurate collection of information about
state and local government tax
collections. The revision consists of a
new survey universe and modifications
to the collection instrument for the F–
73 portion of the program. Previously,
the F–73 Form collected information on
11 types of tax revenues. That number
is being reduced to three (general sales,
personal income, and corporate
income). The universe for the F–73
Form will also be reduced. With the
change in the survey universe and
collection instrument, the F–73
component is being renamed to the
Quarterly Survey of Selected NonProperty Taxes from the current
Quarterly Survey of Non-Property
Taxes.
State and local government tax
collections, amounting to nearly $1.4
trillion annually, constitute
approximately 43 percent of all
governmental revenues. Quarterly
measurement of, and reporting on, these
fund flows provides valuable insight
into trends in the national economy and
that of individual states. Information
collected on the type and quantity of
taxes collected gives comparative data
on how the various levels of government
fund their public sector obligations.
The Census Bureau uses the three
forms covered by this statement to
collect state and local government tax
data for this data series established in
1962. Tax collection data are used to
measure economic activity for the
Nation as a whole, as well as for
comparison among the states. These
data are also used in comparing the mix
of taxes employed by individual states
and in determining the revenue raising
capacity of different types of taxes in
different state-areas.
Key users of these data include the
Bureau of Economic Analysis, the
Federal Reserve Board, and the
Department of Housing and Urban
Development who rely on these data to
provide the most current information on
the financial status of state and local
governments. These data are included in
the quarterly estimates of the National
Income and Product Accounts
developed by the Bureau of Economic
Analysis and the Department of Housing
and Urban Development has used the
property tax data as one of nine cost

adjustments. Legislators, policy makers,
administrators, analysts, economists,
and researchers use these data to
monitor trends in public sector
revenues. Journalists, teachers, and
students use these data as well.

governments.
