Every 5 years NASS conducts a
program review following the
completion of the Census of Agriculture.
The primary purpose is to ensure that
the NASS annual estimating program
targets commodities and states most
relevant based on the latest available
information. Last fall NASS announced
the program review and requested
stakeholder input. The primary source
of information for the program review is
the Census of Agriculture, since it is the
most comprehensive source of data;
however we also take into consideration
estimates from the current annual
estimating program and administrative
data. The detailed listing of program
changes can be found at the following
link: https://www.nass.usda.gov/
Surveys/Program_Review/2019/
Vegetable-Program.pdf. All
questionnaires included in this
information collection will be
voluntary.
Authority: These data will be
collected under authority of 7 U.S.C.
2204(a). Individually identifiable data
collected under this authority are
governed by Section 1770 of the Food
Security Act of 1985 as amended, 7
U.S.C. 2276, which requires USDA to
afford strict confidentiality to nonaggregated data provided by
respondents. This Notice is submitted in
accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104–113)

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
SUMMARY:
I. Abstract
As in previous censuses, the PostEnumeration Survey (PES) for the 2020
Census will be conducted to provide
estimates of census net coverage and
components of census coverage (such as
correct enumerations, omissions,
erroneous enumerations [including
duplicates], and whole-person
imputations) for housing units and
people living in housing units for the
United States and Puerto Rico,
excluding remote Alaska. (See
Definition of Terms.) Group quarters
(such as college dormitories and
correctional facilities) are out of scope

17APN1
amozie on DSK9F9SC42PROD with NOTICES
Federal Register / Vol. 84, No. 74 / Wednesday, April 17, 2019 / Notices
because populations can change
significantly between census
enumeration and PES enumeration
operations. Similarly, remote Alaska is
out of scope for the PES because the
seasonal nature of addresses and the
population throughout the year make it
infeasible to accurately conduct the
matching and follow-up operations
necessary for dual-system estimation.
For this reason, the Census Bureau’s
past post-enumeration surveys have
never included remote Alaska. These
coverage estimates provide insight into
the quality and coverage of census
results and operations. As in the past,
including in the 2010 Census Coverage
Measurement program, the 2020 PES
operations and activities must be
conducted separate from, and
independent of, the other 2020 Census
operations.
The 2020 PES will use the dualsystem estimation procedure, which
depends on two independent systems of
measurement. The independence
between the PES and census operations
is a fundamental necessity for dualsystem estimation. The PES will
comprise two independent
enumerations of housing units and the
household population within the same
sample areas. These two enumerations
are called the enumeration sample (E
sample) and the population sample (P
sample). The primary sampling unit is
the basic collection unit (BCU), which is
the smallest unit of collection geography
for 2020 Census operations. The E
sample contains the list of housing units
and people enumerated in the 2020
Census within a sample of BCUs. The P
sample contains housing units and
people in the sample set of sample
BCUs, but obtained independently from
the census. The independent roster of
housing units is obtained during the
PES Independent Listing, while the
independent roster of people is obtained
during the PES Person Interview. The P
sample housing units and people will be
matched to all census housing units in
the sample BCUs and surrounding
BCUs.
During the Independent Listing
operation, field staff, referred to as
‘‘listers,’’ will canvass every street, road,
or other place where people might live
in their assigned BCUs and construct a
list of housing units from scratch.
Following the completion of listing for
each BCU, the addresses are computer
and clerically matched in the Initial
Housing Unit Matching operation.
Addresses that remain unmatched or
have unresolved address status after
matching will be sent to the Initial
Housing Unit Follow-up operation,
during which listers collect additional
VerDate Sep<11>2014
18:23 Apr 16, 2019
Jkt 247001
information that might allow a
resolution of any differences between
the Independent Listing and the
preliminary census address list results.
Matching to a preliminary census file of
housing units allows the PES to conduct
person interviews close to census day
(April 1, 2020), rather than waiting until
the final census list is available. In the
Final Housing Unit Matching operation
addresses collected in the Independent
Listing operation are matched to the
final census list of housing units. The
Initial Housing Unit Follow-up field
operation seeks to answer questions
needed to resolve the match or
enumeration status of addresses
identified in the Initial Housing Unit
matching operation, while the Final
Housing Unit Follow-up field operation
seeks to answer similar questions
identified in the Final Housing Unit
matching operation. A Federal Register
Notice has been issued for the PES
Independent Listing operation (Federal
Register Notice Vol. 83 FR 53849, pages
53849–53850). Federal Register Notices
for the Person Interview and Person
Follow-up operations will be issued at
a later date.
Addresses identified for both Initial
and Final Housing Unit Follow-ups will
generally need additional information to
determine housing unit status (for
example, to clarify if the addresses refer
to a housing unit or commercial
building and to identify duplicate
addresses) or to resolve inconsistencies
between the PES and census addresses.
Using paper questionnaires tailored to
capture information needed to resolve
each specific status question or
discrepancy, listers will contact a
member of each housing unit and ask
questions to resolve housing unit status
or to clarify discrepancies. If the listers
do not find anyone at home after several
attempts, they will try to collect the
information from a proxy or by
observation as a last resort. Proxies are
respondents who are not members of the
household.
The Initial and Final Housing Unit
Follow-up operations will also have
separate quality control operations. The
first quality control operation is the
Initial Housing Unit Follow-up Quality
Control, which contains 15 percent of
the Initial Housing Unit Follow-up
workload. The second quality control
operation is the Final Housing Unit
Follow-up Quality Control, which
contains 15 percent of the Final Housing
Unit Follow-up workload. These
operations are implemented to ensure
that the work performed is of acceptable
quality.

II. Method of Collection
The Housing Unit Follow-up and
Housing Unit Follow-up Quality Control
operations will be conducted through
personal visits using paper
questionnaires. Listers will receive work
assignments grouped by geography and
in close proximity to the lister’s
residence whenever possible. The PES
Initial Housing Unit Follow-up and
Initial Housing Unit Follow-up Quality
Control operations will occur May 6,
2020 through June 19, 2020. The PES
Final Housing Unit Follow-up and Final
Housing Unit Follow-up Quality Control
operations will occur starting May 19,
2021 through June 18, 2021.
A sample of approximately 180,000
housing units will be selected for the
Initial Housing Unit Follow-up
operation and approximately 8,000
housing units will be selected for the
Final Housing Unit Follow-up
operation. Housing Unit Follow-up
listers are expected to knock on every
door that requires additional
information over several spaced visits in
their assigned BCUs to try to find a
resident or proxy to ask about the units.
The Initial Housing Unit Follow-up
Quality Control operation will contain
about 27,000 housing units and the
Final Housing Unit Follow-up Quality
Control operation will contain about
1,200 housing units.
Definition of Terms
Components of Census Coverage—
The components of census coverage
include correct enumerations, erroneous
enumerations, whole-person
imputations, and omissions. Correct
enumerations are people or housing
units that were correctly enumerated in
the census. Erroneous enumerations are
people or housing units that were
enumerated in the census but should
not have been. Examples of erroneous
enumerations are duplicates,
nonexistent housing units or people,
and people or housing units that were
enumerated in the wrong place.
Omissions are people and housing units
that were not enumerated in the census
but should have been. Lastly, wholeperson imputations are census records
for which all of the demographic
characteristics were imputed. Many of
these imputations represent people in
housing units where we knew the
household count but did not obtain
sufficient information about the people
residing at the housing unit.
Net Coverage—Reflects the difference
between the true population (which is
estimated by the Post-Enumeration
Survey) and the census count. If the
census count was less than the actual
E:\FR\FM\17APN1.SGM
17APN1
16002
Federal Register / Vol. 84, No. 74 / Wednesday, April 17, 2019 / Notices
number of people or housing units in
the population, then we say there was
an undercount. If the census count was
more than the actual number of people
or housing units in the population, then
we say there was an overcount.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Abstract
As in previous censuses, the Post-Enumeration Survey (PES) for the
2020 Census will be conducted to provide estimates of census net
coverage and components of census coverage (such as correct
enumerations, omissions, erroneous enumerations [including duplicates],
and whole-person imputations) for housing units and people living in
housing units for the United States and Puerto Rico, excluding remote
Alaska. (See Definition of Terms.) Group quarters (such as college
dormitories and correctional facilities) are out of scope
[[Page 16001]]
because populations can change significantly between census enumeration
and PES enumeration operations. Similarly, remote Alaska is out of
scope for the PES because the seasonal nature of addresses and the
population throughout the year make it infeasible to accurately conduct
the matching and follow-up operations necessary for dual-system
estimation. For this reason, the Census Bureau's past post-enumeration
surveys have never included remote Alaska. These coverage estimates
provide insight into the quality and coverage of census results and

II. Method of Collection
The Housing Unit Follow-up and Housing Unit Follow-up Quality

possible. The PES Initial Housing Unit Follow-up and Initial Housing
Unit Follow-up Quality Control operations will occur May 6, 2020
through June 19, 2020. The PES Final Housing Unit Follow-up and Final
Housing Unit Follow-up Quality Control operations will occur starting
May 19, 2021 through June 18, 2021.
A sample of approximately 180,000 housing units will be selected
for the Initial Housing Unit Follow-up operation and approximately
8,000 housing units will be selected for the Final Housing Unit Follow-
up operation. Housing Unit Follow-up listers are expected to knock on
every door that requires additional information over several spaced
visits in their assigned BCUs to try to find a resident or proxy to ask
about the units. The Initial Housing Unit Follow-up Quality Control
operation will contain about 27,000 housing units and the Final Housing

census but should not have been. Examples of erroneous enumerations are
duplicates, nonexistent housing units or people, and people or housing
units that were enumerated in the wrong place. Omissions are people and
housing units that were not enumerated in the census but should have
been. Lastly, whole-person imputations are census records for which all
of the demographic characteristics were imputed. Many of these
imputations represent people in housing units where we knew the
household count but did not obtain sufficient information about the
people residing at the housing unit.
Net Coverage--Reflects the difference between the true population
(which is estimated by the Post-Enumeration Survey) and the census
count. If the census count was less than the actual
[[Page 16002]]
number of people or housing units in the population, then we say there
was an undercount. If the census count was more than the actual number
of people or housing units in the population, then we say there was an
overcount.
