DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE

Submission for OMB Review;

Comment Request

DOC has submitted to the Office of

Management and Budget (OMB) for

clearance the following proposal for

collection of information under the

provisions of the Paperwork Reduction

Act (44 U.S.C. chapter 35).

Agency: Bureau of the Census.

Title: 1997 Economic Censuses

General Classification Schedule.

Form Number(s): NC–9923.

Agency Approval Number: None.

Type of Request: New collection.

Burden: 50,000 hours in FY98.

Number of Respondents: 300,000.

Avg. Hours Per Response: 10 minutes.

Needs and Uses: The 1997 Economic

Census will cover virtually every sector

of the U.S. economy. The Census

Bureau will implement the new North

American Industry Classification

System (NAICS) in the 1997 Economic

Census. The implementation of the

NAICS as a replacement for the 1987

Standard Industrial Classification (SIC)

system will require contacting

businesses to collect classification

information to update the 1997

Economic Census mailing lists.

Accurate and reliable industry and

geographic codes are critical to the

Bureau of Census statistical programs.

New businesses are assigned industry

classification by the Social Security

Administration (SSA). However,

approximately 22 percent of these

businesses cannot be assigned industry

codes because insufficient information

is provided on Internal Revenue Service

(IRS) Form SS–4. Since the 1992

Economic Censuses, the number of

unclassified businesses has grown to

almost 500,000.

In order to provide detailed industry

data reflecting NAICS for the 1997

Economic Censuses and the Standard

Statistical Establishment List (SSEL),

these unclassified businesses must be

assigned industry codes. The Census

Bureau has contracted with the Bureau

of Labor Statistics (BLS) to receive

classification information for

unclassified businesses. However,

differences in NAICS implementation

schedules, coverage, and updating

procedures between the two agencies

and our further attempts to assign

industry codes to these businesses based

on their name will still leave some

300,000 unclassified businesses on the

1997 Economic Censuses mail list. This

data collection, Form NC–9923, is

designed to obtain classification

information for different types of

industries including reflecting changes

from the SIC to NAICS and provide

current information on physical

locations.

Affected Public: Business or other forprofit, Not-for-profit institutions.

Frequency: Every five years.

Respondent’s Obligation: Mandatory.

Legal Authority: Title 13 USC,

Sections 131 and 224.

information collection should be sent
