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
our information collection requirements and minimize the public's
reporting burden. Public comments were previously requested via the
Federal Register on October 17, 2023 during a 60-day comment period.
This notice allows for an additional 30 days for public comments.

Needs and Uses: The information collected in this program of
developing and testing questionnaires will be used by staff from the
Census Bureau and sponsoring agencies to evaluate and improve the
quality of the data in the surveys and censuses that are ultimately

are still in the process of development, the data that result from
these collections are not considered official statistics of the Census
Bureau or other Federal agencies. Data will be included in

research reports prepared for sponsors inside and outside of the Census
Bureau. The results may also be prepared for presentations related to
survey methodology at professional meetings or publications in
professional journals.

for Census Bureau-sponsored surveys, and Title 13, Section 8(b) and
Title 15 for surveys sponsored by other Federal agencies. We do not now
know what other titles will be referenced, since we do not know what
survey questionnaires will be pretested during the course of the
clearance.
