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.
Agency: U.S. Census Bureau.
Title: Quarterly Survey of Public
Pensions.
OMB Control Number: 0607–0143.
Form Number(s): F–10.
Type of Request: Revision of a
currently approved collection.
Number of Respondents: 100.
Average Hours per Response: 45
minutes.
Burden Hours: 300.
Needs and Uses: The Quarterly
Survey of Public Pensions, provides a
rich source of data on public retirement
systems administered by state and local
governments in the United States. Data
have been collected since 1968. Over 3.7
trillion dollars in public pension assets
in the financial markets are controlled
by a small number of large retirement
systems. The Quarterly Survey of Public
Pensions is used to collect data on the
assets, revenues and expenditures of the
100 largest systems.
This survey was initiated at the
request of both the Council of Economic
Advisers and the Federal Reserve Board.
The most important information this
survey provides is the quarterly change
in composition of the securities
holdings of the defined benefit public
employee retirement systems
component of the economy. The Federal
Reserve Board uses these data to track
the public sector portion of the Flow of
Funds Accounts. Additionally, the data
are used by a variety of government
officials, academics, students and nonprofit organizations to analyze trends in
public employee retirement and the
impact of retirement obligations on the
fiscal well-being of state and local
governments.

Currently, we are requesting approval
to conduct the 2019, 2020 and 2021
Quarterly Survey of Public Pensions.
Discussions with the Federal Reserve
Board and data providers and literature
review have revealed that there is little
interest in the measurement of revenue
and benefits on a quarterly basis. Many
systems do not produce these data
quarterly. Obtaining these data requires
consultation with multiple offices and
the finalization of these data often lag
behind asset data. Additionally, there is
burden on data providers to produce
these data quarterly. Therefore, we are
proposing a realignment of content. We
request approval to modify the current
questionnaire to focus on the asset base
of public employee retirement systems
and to remove questions pertaining to
measurement of revenue and benefits
from the quarterly program.
The survey will provide greater focus
on the asset composition of the largest
systems. These data are already
produced for existing internal and
external needs, and most closely align
with the needs of the Federal Reserve
Board. Additionally, the related Annual
Survey of Public Pensions (0607–0585)
will continue to provide a robust
collection of revenue and benefit data
on a fiscal year basis. These data items
are in demand on an annual basis and
are already created for internal and
external purposes by most all systems as
they are required items in
Comprehensive Annual Financial
Reports (CAFRs).
Summary tables of the information
collected are released quarterly on the
internet. Documentation and
explanatory materials are also available
on the internet site here: https://
www.census.gov/programs-surveys/

Affected Public: State, local or Tribal
government.
Frequency: Quarterly.
Respondent’s Obligation: Voluntary.

DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE
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.
Agency: U.S. Census Bureau.
Title: Spatial, Address, and Imagery
Data Program (SAID).
OMB Control Number: 0607–XXXX.
Form Number(s): N/A.
Type of Request: Regular submission.
Needs and Uses: The Spatial,
Address, and Imagery Data (SAID)
Program, formerly known as the
Geographic Support System Partnership
Program, is one of seven voluntary
geographic partnership programs that
collect data to update the U.S. Census
Bureau’s geographic database of
addresses, streets, boundaries, and
imagery known as the Master Address
File/Topologically Integrated Geocoding
and Referencing (MAF/TIGER) System.
The data within the MAF/TIGER
System supports the Census Bureau’s
geographic framework for data
collection, tabulation and
dissemination. This framework enables
the Census Bureau field personnel to
navigate to the appropriate locations for
data collection, and it enables the
Census Bureau to accurately link
demographic data from surveys and the
decennial census to locations and areas,
such as cities, school districts, and
counties for data tabulation and
dissemination.
The data collected in the SAID
Program is also used to define
geographic boundaries, including
census blocks, and to place households
and group quarters in a specific census
block. The SAID Program follows the
process below:
1. The Census Bureau invites
participants, including tribal, state,
county, and local governments; federal
agencies; and other organizations each
fiscal year.
2. Participants provide a current
address data with associated location
points and attributes, spatial data, and/
or imagery that is no more than two
years old.
3. Participants upload the requested
data files to a Census Bureau Secure File
Transfer Protocol site, per Census
Bureau procedures, or provide a media
from which the data can be acquired.
4. The Census Bureau updates the
MAF/TIGER System with the address

5. The Census Bureau uses these
updated addresses, streets, and imagery
to support Census Bureau field
operations, surveys, and data tabulation.
The SAID Program provides the
Census Bureau with a continuous
method to obtain current, accurate, and
complete address, spatial, and imagery
data. The SAID Program helps the
Census Bureau maintain its geographic
framework for data collection,
tabulation, and dissemination between
decennial censuses and to support
ongoing programs, such as the American
Community Survey and the Population
Estimates Program. Over the past six
years, the SAID Program, under the
name of the Geographic Support System
Partnership Program, has enabled the
Census Bureau to update addresses and
street centerlines across the country,
with participation covering nearly 94
percent of the housing units in the
nation. Moving forward, the SAID
Program will continue to focus on
acquiring addresses, street centerlines,
and imagery in targeted areas. The
Geographic Support System Partnership
Program was previously included in the
Geographic Partnership Program
Generic Clearance (OMB Control
Number 0607–0795).
Affected Public: Tribal, state, county,
