2020 Participant Statistical Areas Program... continued

by Graham, Todd

Hi friends— Some of you have been involved in Census Geog activities. Some of you have not. FYI, this week Census Geog has blasted out announcements of the verification & sign-off phase of PSAP (for Tracts, Block Groups, CDPs, etc. etc.). Many of you will see an email like the one below (scroll down). This went to a long list of governments and stakeholders. This email says: PSAP Verification phase is now begun. Wraps up in April. Contact your “primary participant responsible” if you have issues. Kind of a bewildering email = sure to generate some questions. Things to know: 1. Census Geog’s objective now is simply verification & sign-off, confirming the Tract and BG shapefiles submitted last year. This phase is not an opportunity to bring up new requests. Sorry. 2. You can find out who is your “primary participant responsible” by visiting here: https://www.census.gov/programs-surveys/decennial-census/about/psap.html#pa… 3. New this week, there is a new series of YouTube videos about PSAP Verification and navigating the GUPS/PSAP website. Find the videos here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tx_K2VFVRho That’s what I know. Hope it helps. If you have questions about any of that don’t call me. Instead call on Census Geog Dept: geo.psap(a)census.gov<mailto:geo.psap@census.gov> or 1-844-788-4921 Happy Tracting! --Todd Graham Metropolitan Council of the Twin Cities From: U.S. Census Bureau <GEO.PSAP(a)census.gov> Sent: Wednesday, January 15, 2020 11:05 AM Subject: 2020 Census Participant Statistical Areas Program – Verification Phase Announcement 01/15/2020 FROM THE ASSOCIATE DIRECTOR FOR DECENNIAL CENSUS PROGRAMS Dear PSAP Participant: Your government/organization expressed interest in providing input to the statistical geographies reviewed and updated as part of the U.S. Census Bureau’s 2020 Census Participant Statistical Areas Program (PSAP). The PSAP verification phase materials were provided to the primary PSAP participant in January 2020 for review to determine if corrections are needed. Corrections must be completed within 90 calendar days from receipt of the verification phase announcement. To provide input, please contact the primary PSAP participant responsible for the review and corrections of the statistical geographies for your area. Locate the information regarding the PSAP verification phase and/or the primary PSAP participant on the PSAP website at https://www.census.gov/programs-surveys/decennial-census/about/psap.html<https://gcc01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.censu…> or contact the Census Bureau PSAP team by email at geo.psap(a)census.gov<mailto:geo.psap@census.gov> or by phone at 1-844-788-4921 for that information.

The products include the 2010 Demonstration Public Law 94-171 (P.L. 94-171) Redistricting Data Summary File and the Demographic and Housing Demonstration File, which is similar to Summary File 1.
