Agency Information Collection Activities; Submission to the 
Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for Review and Approval; Comment 
Request; High-Frequency Surveys Program/Household Pulse Survey

    The Department of Commerce will submit the following information 
collection request to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for 
review and clearance in accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 
1995, on or after the date of publication of this notice. We invite the 
general public and other Federal agencies to comment on proposed, and 
continuing information collections, which helps us assess the impact of

Federal Register on August 17, 2023 during a 60-day comment period. 
This notice allows for an additional 30 days for public comments.

    Title: High Frequency Surveys Program/Household Pulse Survey.
    OMB Control Number: 0607-XXXX.

    Needs and Uses: The High-Frequency Surveys Program was established 
as a natural progression from the creation of the Household Pulse 
Survey. The Census Bureau developed the Household Pulse Survey to 
produce near real-time data in a time of urgent and acute need to 
inform federal and state action in response to the Covid-19 pandemic. 
Changes in the measures over time provided insight into individuals' 
experiences on social and economic dimensions during the period of the 
pandemic. It has evolved to include content on other emergent social 
and economic issues facing households and is designed to supplement the 
federal statistical system's traditional benchmark data products with a 
new data source that provides relevant and timely information based on 
a high-quality sample frame, data integration, and cooperative 
expertise.
    Affected Public: Households.
    Frequency: Households will be selected once to participate in a 20-
minute survey.
