ACTION:
The Department of Labor, as
part of its continuing effort to reduce
paperwork and respondent burden,
conducts a pre-clearance consultation
program to provide the general public
and Federal agencies with an
opportunity to comment on proposed
and/or continuing collections of
information in accordance with the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. This
program helps to ensure that requested
data can be provided in the desired
format, reporting burden (time and
financial resources) is minimized,
collection instruments are clearly
understood, and the impact of collection
requirements on respondents can be
properly assessed. The Bureau of Labor
Statistics (BLS) is soliciting comments
concerning the proposed extension of
the International Price Program (IPP)
U.S. Import and Export Price Indexes. A
copy of the proposed information
collection request can be obtained by
contacting the individual listed below
in the Addresses section of this notice.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with NOTICES1
SUMMARY:
I. Background
The U.S. Import and Export Price
Indexes, produced by the Bureau of
Labor Statistics’ International Price
Program (IPP), measure price change
over time for all categories of imported
and exported products, as well as
selected services. The IPP has produced
the U.S. Import Price Indexes (MPI)
continuously since 1973 and the U.S.
Export Price Indexes (XPI) continuously
since 1971. The Office of Management
and Budget has listed the Import and
Export Price Indexes (MXPI) as a
Principal Federal Economic Indicator
since 1982. The indexes are widely used
in both the public and private sectors.
The primary public sector use is the
deflation of the U.S. monthly trade
statistics and the quarterly estimates of
VerDate Sep<11>2014
18:03 Oct 29, 2021
Jkt 256001
U.S. Gross Domestic Product; the
indexes also are used in formulating
U.S. trade policy and in trade
negotiations with other countries. In the
private sector, uses of the Import Price
Indexes include market analysis,
inflation forecasting, contract escalation,
and replacement cost accounting.
The MXPI are closely followed
statistics, and are viewed as a key
indicator of the economic environment.
The U.S. Department of Commerce uses
the monthly statistics to produce
monthly and quarterly estimates of
inflation-adjusted trade flows. Without
continuation of data collection, it would
be extremely difficult to construct
accurate estimates of the U.S. Gross
Domestic Product. In fact, a budget
proposal to curtail publication of the
export price indexes beginning in FY15
was met with resistance from the
Commerce Department who explained
that a viable substitute is not available.
The Beyond the Numbers article
‘‘Analyzing alternatives to export price
indexes’’ (https://www.bls.gov/opub/btn/
volume-3/analyzing-alternatives-toexport-price-indexes.htm) explores
alternatives to using BLS’ export price
indexes to deflate the U.S. Gross
Domestic Product and explains why
there are currently no comparable
replacements.
Additionally, Federal policymakers in
the Department of Treasury, the Council
of Economic Advisers, and the Federal
Reserve Board utilize these statistics on
a regular basis to improve these
agencies’ formulation and evaluation of
monetary and fiscal policy and
evaluation of the general business
environment.
II. Current Action
Office of Management and Budget
clearance is being sought for the U.S.
Import and Export Price Indexes. The
IPP continues to modernize data
collection and processing to permit
more timely release of its indexes, and
to reduce reporter burden. The IPP has
expanded the use of its web application,
introduced in 2003, and in 2018, it
replaced the mail out and fax back of
paper forms as IPP’s primary repricing
method. The web application allows
respondents to update their data online
and more rapidly than using a paperbased form. As of September 2021, 93
percent of IPP respondents were
providing prices via the web application
or had agreed to start using this
repricing method. Respondents who
provide price information using nonweb options do so via non-automated
telephone, special arrangements
PO 00000
Frm 00097
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
between the analysts and respondents,
or email.
The IPP has implemented several
systems changes over the years in order
to reduce burden for web respondents.
Most recently, the IPP adopted the use
of a new web application format/layout
(deployed in 2019). Previously, the web
survey used separate pages for each part
of the repricing process; now, the web
application utilizes modal windows in
combination with separate pages.
Of particular note, the Program has
been conducting research into whether
administrative trade data can be used in
place of directly collected price data for
more homogenous product areas. As
part of this effort, IPP published
historical research export unit value
price indexes calculated using trade
transaction data. Should IPP’s research
efforts result in the replacement of
directly collected data with trade data
collected by other government agencies,
the Program would achieve a milestone
in burden reduction. More details are
available on the MXP Research page
(https://www.bls.gov/mxp/data/
research.htm).
III. Desired Focus of Comments
The Bureau of Labor Statistics is
particularly interested in comments
that:
• Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility.
• Evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used.
• Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected.
• Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including through the
use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submissions
of responses.

Program (IPP) U.S. Import and Export
