SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Abstract 

The Count Question Resolution (CQR) 

program will address corrections for 

three types of challenges for the 2010 

Decennial Census: (1) Boundary, (2) 

geocoding, and (3) coverage. The CQR 

program is not a mechanism or process 

to challenge or revise the population 

counts sent to the President by 

December 31, 2010, which are used to 

apportion the U.S. House of 

Representatives. The Census Bureau 

will accept challenges between June 1, 

2011, and June 1, 2013. The Census 

Bureau will review challenges in the 

order they are received. 

The CQR program procedures include 

researching challenges and, as 

appropriate, making corrections and 

issuing revised official population and 

housing unit counts, which the Census 

Bureau will also use for the Census 

Bureau’s Population Estimates program. 

The Census Bureau will not accept 

challenges to the overseas counts of 

persons in the military and Federal 

civilian personnel stationed overseas 

and their dependents living with them. 

The Census Bureau obtains overseas 

counts using administrative records and 

uses the records solely for apportioning 

seats in the U.S. House of 

Representatives. These records do not 

provide the sub-State geographic 

information required for the CQR 

program. 

The Census Bureau will only accept 

challenges from the highest elected 

official of State, local, and Tribal area 

governments or those representing them 

or acting on their behalf. All challenges 

must be sent to the Census Bureau’s 

headquarters. 

The Census Bureau will make all 

corrections on the basis of appropriate 

documentation provided by the 

challenging entities and through 

research of the official 2010 Census 

records by the Census Bureau. The 

Census Bureau will not collect 

additional data for the enumeration of 

living quarters through the CQR 

program. The Census Bureau will 

respond to all challenges and will notify 

all affected governmental units of any 

corrections to their official counts as a 

result of a CQR program decision. 

Corrections made to the population 

and housing unit counts by this program 

will result in the issuance of new 

official 2010 Census counts to the 

officials of governmental units affected. 

These corrections may be used by the 

governmental units for future programs 

requiring official 2010 Census data. The 

Census Bureau will use these 

corrections to: 

—Specifically modify the decennial 

census file for use in annual 

postcensal estimates beginning in 

December 2012, and 

—Create the errata information we will 

make available on the Census 

Bureau’s American FactFinder Web 

site at http://factfinder.census.gov. 

The Census Bureau will NOT 

incorporate the CQR corrections into 

2010 data summary files and tables 

prepared after the CQR process begins 

nor will the Census Bureau re-tabulate 

Summary File 1 or Demographic Profile 

tables. 

Background 

The Census Bureau has a 

comprehensive program to improve the 

quality of the housing unit and 

population counts. In 2002, the Census 

Bureau initiated the Master Address
