2005 Company Organization Survey
AGENCY: Bureau of the Census, Commerce.
ACTION: Notice of Determination.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Bureau of the Census (Census Bureau) is conducting the
2005 Company Organization Survey. The survey's data are needed, in
part, to update the multilocation companies in the Business Register.
The survey, which has been conducted annually since 1974, is designed
to collect information on the number of employees, payroll, geographic
location, current operational status, and kind of business for the
establishments of multilocation companies. We have determined that
annual data collected from this survey are needed to aid the efficient
performance of essential governmental functions and have significant
application to the needs of the public and industry. The data derived
from this survey are not available from any other source.
ADDRESSES: The Census Bureau will furnish report forms to organizations
included in the survey, and additional copies are available upon
written request to the Director, Census Bureau, Washington, DC 20233-
0101.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Paul Hanczaryk, Economic Planning and
Coordination Division, U.S. Census Bureau, Room 2747, Federal Building
3, Washington, DC 20233-6100; telephone (301) 763-4058.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Title 13, United States Code (U.S.C.),
Sections 182, 195, 224, and 225 authorize the Census Bureau to
undertake surveys necessary to furnish current data on the subjects
covered by the censuses. This survey will provide continuing and timely
national statistical data for the period between economic censuses. The
next economic censuses will be conducted for the year 2007. The data
collected in this survey will be within the general scope, type, and
character of those that are covered in the economic censuses. Forms NC-
99001 and NC-99007 (for single-location companies) will be used to
collect the desired data.
Notwithstanding any other provision of law, no person is required
to respond to, nor shall a person be subject to a penalty for failure
to comply with a collection of information subject to the requirements
of the Paperwork Reduction Act unless that collection of information
displays a current, valid Office of Management and Budget (OMB) control
number. In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act, 44 U.S.C.,
Chapter 35, the OMB approved Forms NC-99001 and NC-99007 on December
21, 2004, under OMB Control Number 0607-0444. We will furnish report
forms to organizations included in this survey, and additional copies
are available upon written request to the Director, U.S. Census Bureau,
Washington, DC 20233-0101.
I have, therefore, directed that the 2005 Company Organization
Survey be conducted for the purpose of collecting these data.
Dated: October 12, 2005.
Charles Louis Kincannon,
Director, Bureau of the Census.
