DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE


Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

    The Department of Commerce will submit 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: U.S. Census Bureau.
    Title: Current Population Survey, Fertility Supplement.
    OMB Control Number: 0607-0610.
    Form Number(s): There are no forms. We conduct all interviews on 
computers.
    Type of Request: Regular Submission.
    Number of Respondents: 30,000.
    Average Hours per Response: 1.0 minutes.
    Burden Hours: 500.
    Needs and Uses: This survey provides information used mainly by 
government and private analysts to project future population growth, to 
analyze child spacing, and to aid policymakers in their decisions 
affected by changes in family size and composition. Past studies have 
discovered noticeable changes in the patterns of fertility rates and 
the timing of the first birth. Potential needs for government 
assistance, such as aid to families with dependent children, child 
care, and maternal health care for single parent households, can be 
estimated using Current Population Survey characteristics matched with 
fertility data.
    Affected Public: Individuals or households.
    Frequency: Biennial.
    Respondent's Obligation: Voluntary.
    Legal Authority: Title 13 U.S.C. Sections 141, 182 authorize the 
collection of this information on individuals and households.
    This information collection request may be viewed at 
www.reginfo.gov. Follow the instructions to view Department of Commerce 
collections currently under review by OMB.
    Written comments and recommendations for the proposed information 
collection should be sent within 30 days of publication of this notice 
to [email protected] or fax to (202) 395-5806.

    Dated: January 13, 2016.
Glenna Mickelson,
Management Analyst, Office of the Chief Information Officer.
