SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
SUMMARY:
I. Abstract
The U.S. Census Bureau plans to
request a three-year extension of the
current Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) clearance of the Survey
of Housing Starts, Sales and
Completions, also known as the Survey
PO 00000
Frm 00001
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
of Construction (SOC). The SOC collects
monthly data on new residential
construction from a sample of owners or
builders. The Census Bureau uses the
Computer-Assisted Personal
Interviewing (CAPI) electronic
questionnaires SOC–QI/SF.1 and SOC–
QI/MF.1 to collect data on start and
completion dates of construction,
physical characteristics of the structure
(floor area, number of bathrooms, type
of heating system, etc), and if
applicable, date of sale, sales price, and
type of financing. The SOC provides
widely used measures of construction
activity, including the economic
indicators Housing Starts and Housing
Completions, which are from the New
Residential Construction series, and
New Residential Sales.
The current clearance for this survey
is scheduled to expire on October 31,
2014. No changes are planned to the
questionnaire.
We sample about 1,700 new buildings
each month (20,400 per year). We
inquire about the progress of each
building multiple times until it is
completed (and a sales contract is
signed, if it is a single-family house that
is built for sale). For single-family
buildings, we conduct an average of
8.17 interviews and for multifamily
buildings, we conduct an average of 7.0
interviews. The total number of
interviews conducted each year for
single-family buildings is about 107,844
and for multifamily buildings is about
50,400. Each interview takes 5 minutes
on average. Therefore, the total annual
burden is 13,187 hours.
II. Method of Collection
The Census Bureau uses its field
representatives to collect the data. The
field representatives conduct interviews
to obtain data.
III. Data
OMB Control Number: 0607–0110.
Form Number(s): SOC–QI/SF.1 and
SOC–QI/MF.1.
Type of Review: Regular submission.
Affected Public: Individuals or
households, business or other for-profit
organizations.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
20,400.
Estimated Time per Response: 5
minutes.
Estimated Total Annual Burden
Hours: 13,187.
