    The Department of Commerce will submit to the Office of Management

U.S.C. chapter 35).
    Agency: U.S. Census Bureau.
    Title: Special Census Program.
    OMB Control Number: 0607-0368.
    Form Number(s):

further explanation regarding the unit/address.

    SC-1(F), Special Census Information Sheet--This sheet contains the 
Confidentiality Notice and the Flash Card information for use at 
Housing Units. The Confidentiality Notice is required by the Privacy 
Act of 1974. The Flash Card portion of the Information Sheet shows the

and/or the Special Census Office.
    SC-3309, Language Identification Flashcard--This form will be used 
by enumerators to identify the language spoken by a respondent when a 
language barrier is encountered.

    Type of Request: Regular Submission.
    Number of Respondents: 248,430.
    Average Hours per Response: Based on previous experience with 
special censuses and the fact that the Special Census forms and 
procedures are very similar to (and in many cases exactly the same as) 
those used in the 2010 Decennial Census, we estimate burden hours as 
shown below. Please note that the burden hours in the Federal Register 
notice published on September 2, 2015 in pages 53102 and 53103 are 
incorrect due to a calculation error. The burden hours below are the 
correct burden hours for special census respondents.

    SC-1 or, Special Census Enumerator Questionnaire.
    SC-1 (Phone/WYC)--248,430 respondents x 10 min. = 41,405 hours.

[[Page 72685]]

    SC-1(SUPP), Continuation Questionnaire--10,000 respondents x 1.75 
min. = 292 hour.
    SC-2, Individual Census Report--8,333 respondents x 5 min. = 695 
hours.
    SC-3(RI), Enumeration Reinterview Questionnaire--55,000 respondents 
x 7 min. = 6,417 hours.
    SC-116, Group Quarters Enumeration Control Sheet--42 respondents x 
10 min. = 7 hours.
    SC-117, Transitory Location Enumeration Record--42 respondents x 10 
min. = 7 hours.
    SC-351, Initial Contact Checklist (Group Quarters)--42 respondents 
x 10 min. = 7 hours.
    SC-920, Address Listing Page--200,000 respondents x 1 min. = 3,334 
hours.
    SC-921(HU), Housing Unit Add Page--50,000 respondents x 1 min. = 
834 hours.
    SC-921(GQ), Group Quarters/Transitory Unit Add Page.
    SC-921(TU)--13 respondents x 1 min. = .22 hour.

    Estimated total annual burden = 52,998 hours.
    Burden Hours: 52,998.
    Needs and Uses: Local jurisdictions determine the need for and uses 
of their special census data. Some governmental units request a special 
census for proper infrastructure planning and others make a request 
because they must have the updated data to qualify for some sources of 
funding. Local governmental units use special census data to apply for 
available funds from both the state and Federal governments. Many 
states distribute these funds based on Census Bureau population 
statistics. This fact, along with local population shifts or 
annexations of territory, prompts local officials to request special 
censuses. In addition, special census data are used by the local 
jurisdictions to plan new schools, transportation systems, housing 
programs, water treatment facilities, etc.
    The Census Bureau also uses special census data as part of its 
local population estimates calculation and to update the Census 
Bureau's Master Address File (MAF) and Topographically Integrated 
Geographic Encoding and Referencing (TIGER) System.
    Information quality is an integral part of the pre-dissemination 
review of the Information disseminated by the Census Bureau (fully 
described in the Census Bureau's Information Quality Guidelines). 
Information quality is also integral to the information collections 
conducted by the Census Bureau and is incorporated into the clearance 
process required by the Paperwork Reduction Act.
    Affected Public: The Census Bureau will establish a reimbursable 
agreement with a variety of potential special census customers that are 
unknown at this time. The Special Census Program will include a library 
of standard forms that will be used for the Special Censuses we 
anticipate conducting throughout this decade. While no additional 
documentation will be provided to OMB in advance of conducting any 
Special Census which utilizes the library of standard forms, any 
deviation from the standard forms, such as an additional question 
requested by a specific governmental unit, will be forwarded to OMB for 
approval. In addition, the Special Census program will provide OMB an 
annual report summarizing the activity for the year.
    Frequency: One time.
    Respondent's Obligation: Voluntary.
    Legal Authority: Title 13, United States Code, Section 196.
    This information collection request may be viewed at 
www.reginfo.gov. Follow the instructions to view Department of Commerce 
collections currently under review by OMB.
    Written comments and recommendations for the proposed information 
collection should be sent within 30 days of publication of this notice 
to OIRA_Submission@omb.eop.gov or fax to (202) 395-5806.
