Estimated Total Annual Burden
Hours: 9,000.
Estimated Total Annual Cost to
Public: $0.
Needs and Uses: As the next
installment of a decades-long series of
data collections, NTIA proposes to add
66 questions to the U.S. Census
Bureau’s (‘‘Bureau’’) November 2017
CPS to gather reliable data on computer
and broadband (also known as highspeed Internet) use by U.S. households.
President Trump has expressed support
for broadband expansion in the United
States, particularly in rural
communities, stating an intention to
include broadband in the $1 trillion
infrastructure plan the Administration
is developing.1 In addition, Secretary of
Commerce Wilbur Ross has noted
broadband’s importance to the nation’s
future and its economic policy,
including at his confirmation hearing in
January 2017.2
To aid the Administration’s plan to
incorporate broadband in the upcoming
infrastructure initiative and ensure the
digital preparedness of the nation’s
current and future workforce, NTIA data
will reveal consumers’ changing
demand for broadband, as well as their
online activities. The information may
inform decisions about the scope and
scale of the needed infrastructure,
particularly in remote and sparsely
populated areas where broadband
deployment may be difficult and costly.
It may also shed light on opportunities
to increase digital literacy and use
among Americans who currently use the
Internet sparingly, if at all. NTIA works
with Congress, the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC),
and other stakeholders to develop and
advance economic and regulatory
policies that foster broadband
deployment and adoption. Current,
systematic, and comprehensive data on
broadband use and non-use by U.S.
households are critical to allow
policymakers not only to gauge progress
made to date, but also to identify
problem areas with a specificity that
