SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Abstract

    The U.S. Census Bureau plans to request a general clearance for 
acquiring State administrative records in order to improve efficiency 
and accuracy in our data collections, and to improve measures of the 
population and economy. The Census Bureau has undertaken research 
projects to integrate and link State administrative records with Census 
Bureau data from current surveys and censuses.
    The Census Bureau uses the State administrative records linked with 
other survey and census records to conduct further research and improve 
operations with surveys and censuses, including 2020 Census Operations. 
The Census Bureau benefits from these projects by improving data 
quality and estimates, as well as studies of program participation over 
time. State data providers have benefited through access to tabulated 
data and reports to better understand the demographic characteristics 
of program participants and to administer their programs.

II. Method of Collection

    The Census Bureau will contact the State Agencies to discuss uses 
of State administrative records. The State Agencies will enter data 
sharing agreements with the Census Bureau to provide administrative 
records data. The State Agency will transfer State administrative 
records to the Census Bureau via secure File Transfer Protocol or 
appropriately encrypted CD-ROM or DVD-ROM.

III. Data

    OMB Control Number: 0607-XXXX.
    Form Number(s): Information will be collected in the form of a data 
transfer to the Census Bureau. No form will be used.
    Type of Review: Regular submission.
    Affected Public: State governments.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 50 states and the District of 
Columbia.

[[Page 29251]]

    Estimated Time per Response: 75 hours.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 3,825 hours.
    Estimated Total Annual Cost to Public: $80,325.
    Respondent's Obligation: Voluntary.
    Legal Authority: Title 13 U.S.C. Section 6.

IV. Request for Comments

    Comments are invited on: (a) Whether the proposed collection of 
information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of 
the agency, including whether the information shall have practical 
utility; (b) the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden 
(including hours and cost) of the proposed collection of information; 
(c) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the 
information to be collected; and (d) ways to minimize the burden of the 
collection of information on respondents, including through the use of 
automated collection techniques or other forms of information 
technology.

collection; they also will become a matter of public record.
