DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE

Agency Form Under Review by the

Office of Management and Budget

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: Current Industrial Reports –

Broadwoven Fabrics (Gray).

Form Number(s): MQ22T.

Agency Approval Number: 0607–0625.

Type of Request: Revision of a currently

approved collection.

Burden: 1,339 hours.

Number of Respondents: 487.

Avg Hours Per Response: 56 minutes.

Needs and Uses: This survey is part of

the Census Bureau’s Current

Industrial Reports Program which

measures United States production of

various manufactured products. The

Census Bureau conducts this survey

quarterly to gather information on the

level of production of selected

broadwoven fabrics. The interagency

Committee for the Implementation of

Textile Agreements (CITA) uses

survey data to monitor potential

market disruptions resulting from

trade in gray broadwoven fabric.

Other government agencies, trade

associations, and business firms use

these data for making production,

investment, and trade policy

decisions. Most establishments report

quarterly in this survey. Those

establishments that contribute less

than 10 percent to any publishable

item report annually. This request for

revision informs OMB of a change in

sample size due to a reduction in the

universe of manufacturers in this

segment of the economy. No other

changes are requested.

Affected Public: Businesses or other for–

profit organizations.

Frequency: Quarterly, with annual

counterpart.

Respondent’s Obligation: Mandatory.

OMB Desk Officer: Maria Gonzalez,

(202) 395–7313.

Agency Form Under Review by the

Office of Management and Budget

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: Annual Retail Trade Report.

Form Number(s): B–151, B–151A, B–

151D, B–153, B–153D.

Agency Approval Number: 0607–

0013.

Type of Request: Revision of a

currently approved collection.

Burden: 8,686 hours.

Number of Respondents: 20,805.

Avg Hours Per Response: 25 minutes.

Needs and Uses: The Bureau of the

Census conducts the Annual Retail

Trade Survey to collect annual totals of

sales, inventories, inventory valuation

methods, purchases, and accounts

receivable balances from a sample of

retail establishments in the United

States. The estimates compiled from this

survey are critical to the accurate

measurement of total economic activity

and are used in computing such

indicators of economic well–being as

the Gross Domestic Product and the

National Income and Product Accounts.

Survey results also provide valuable

information for economic policy

decisions and actions by the

government and are widely used by

private businesses, trade organizations,

professional associations, and others for

market research and analysis. This

request for revision informs OMB of

some recent methodological changes the

Census Bureau has implemented for

estimating retail nonemployers and

recent employer births. We now use

new Employer Identification Numbers

(EINs) and administrative records

provided by the Internal Revenue

Service for estimating these components

of retail trade. Previously we used an

area sample.

Affected Public: Businesses or other

for–profit organizations.

Frequency: Annual.

Respondent’s Obligation: Mandatory.

OMB Desk Officer: Maria Gonzalez,
