Shannon, Chuck:
FYI - See bottom of this e-mail chain for the "Media Advisory" from the
Census Bureau regarding the Commuter Flow data that Tom Fontaine asked
about earlier today. Data was "embargoed" by the Census Bureau.
Available to the media at noon today, but not released publicly to
everyone else (including us) until midnight tonight.
Bob Schwartz should be downloading the file sometime in the morning.

***CENSUS BUREAU MEDIA ADVISORY***
Commuting Products to be Embargoed
The U.S. Census Bureau's Public Information Office will offer an embargo
period next week for members of the media to view a series of commuting
products. Statistics will be available for every county in the U.S.
showing the number of workers that commute in or out and which counties
those commuters travel to and from. Additional reports and tables, based
on statistics from the American Community Survey, examine U.S. residents
traveling across county and state lines to work. Specifically, the
products present U.S. workers who have commutes of 60 minutes or longer
and workers who have "mega commutes" of at least 90 minutes and 50
miles. Statistics will also be available for every county in the U.S.
that show the number of workers that commute into or out of the county
and which counties those commuters travel to and from.
The reports and tables will be posted to the Census Bureau's embargo
site at noon EST Monday, March 4. The public release will be at 12:01
a.m. EST Tuesday, March 5. Wire and distribution services are prohibited
from distributing embargoed news releases and data files to subscribers
before the public release date and time.
If you are interested in scheduling a radio interview on Tuesday, March
5, please contact the U.S. Census Bureau Public Information Office at
301-763-3030.

How did I miss this? This new tool was released by the Census Bureau:
http://www.census.gov/censusexplorer/
There is a special "commuting" edition.

Here is a link to the newest issue of the CTPP Status Report:
http://www.fhwa.dot.gov/planning/census_issues/ctpp/status_report/sr0514.cfm
Please read the article about the "ACS Content Review." The 4 items that the Census has listed as the topics of greatest concern are:
1. Plumbing (running water, toilet, bath, sink)
2. Income
3. Journey to Work, especially Departure time to Work
4. Disabilities
As of today, the Census Bureau expects the website for public feedback to be opened in June 2014.

Today the Census Bureau released a new Brief on non-motorized travel, written by our friend Brian McKenzie.
http://www.census.gov/prod/2014pubs/acs-25.pdf?eml=gd&utm_medium=email&utm_…
Although these FHWA and AASHTO produced Profiles use older ACS data, they include more geographic choices than reflected in the new Census Brief:
http://download.ctpp.transportation.org/profiles_2012/transport_profiles.ht…
We are now working on an updated set of profile sheets using more current ACS data.
If you need more detailed information on travel time by means of transportation to work, please use
Residence-based table: B101217 from the 2006-2010 CTPP
Workplace-based table: B202213 from the 2006-2010 CTPP
For technical assistance with the CTPP data access software, please contact Ms. Liang Long at liang.long(a)dot.gov<mailto:liang.long@dot.gov> 301-347-9141

Federal Highway and AASHTO through the Census Transportation Planning Products (CTPP) program are offering two separate webinars for those who are interested to learn how to use the "new" CTPP access software system to pull data from the 2006-2010 CTPP data product. The webinars will be the same so please do not sign up for both. One will be offered Friday, June 6, 2014 and the other Thursday, June 26, 2014. Both will run from 1:00 PM to 3:00 PM Eastern time. To get the most out of the webinar, attendees should visit the CTPP E-Learning modules at http://ctpp.training.transportation.org/ and familiarize themselves with the ACS and the CTPP. This is a prerequisite.
In this webinar attendees will learn how to access the ACS Census Data tabulated under the CTPP program. The CTPP is a 5-year tabulation of ACS data (2006-2010) that is specially designed for transportation planning. Attendees will learn the structure of the data, how to extract selected tables and be exposed to functionality of the software designed to handle the data. Most importantly, attendees will learn where to get the data. Registration is mandatory.
To register for the Friday, June 6, 2014 webinar go to
http://www.nhi.fhwa.dot.gov/resources/webconference/web_conf_learner_reg.as…
To register for the Thursday, June 26 2014 webinar go to
http://www.nhi.fhwa.dot.gov/resources/webconference/web_conf_learner_reg.as…
Do not register for both. Space is limited and the webinar sponsors have to pay for those who register and do not show up.

I am out of the office until 05/09/2014.
I will be checking my email sporatically during this time, so I may not
reply to your message right away.
Note: This is an automated response to your message "ctpp-news Digest, Vol
123, Issue 3" sent on 5/6/2014 1:00:01 PM.
This is the only notification you will receive while this person is away.
Hi All,
The Census Bureau's American Community Survey (ACS) Office is performing content review for ACS questions. The Journey to Work questions are being looked at critically, with special threat to the time departing for work question.
At this time, it would be very helpful if you or your staff could provide Bureau of Transportation Statistics (BTS) (who are responsible for the DOT defense of the questions) any support in the form of how ACS data are used to fulfill mandates, especially relating the Census ACS "time of departure for work" question to MAP-21, NEPA and other mandates.
Census has given DOT less than two weeks to gather and report this information, so time is of the essence.
Please respond to me ASAP and I will get your responses to BTS.
Thanks,
Penelope Z. Weinberger
CTPP Program Manager

Below is the link to a 1 hour webinar that the ACS Data User Group held
on the "new" Content Review that the Census Bureau is undergoing. Under
the review process ALL of the questions on the ACS questionnaire will be
carefully reviewed with what many believe could lead to a smaller
questionnaire with less content. With that said users with an interest
in the ACS will want to listen to the webinar.
https://www1.gotomeeting.com/register/523049553
When you go to the link you will be asked to provide your email address
and a couple of other pieces of information.
