[CTPP] Participant Statistical Areas Program (PSAP) instructions and data distribution should begin next week

During the continuing federal shutdown, a lot of the usual communications channels are out of commission. I am writing to share: 2020 Census staff in regional offices are saying that Participant Statistical Areas Program (PSAP) instructions and data distribution should begin next week, regardless of federal gov shutdown. Multiple sources confirming this. So… If you are a MPO or regional planner who registered for Census PSAP work, watch your snail mail a week from now. The details of the Participant Statistical Areas Program are described here.<https://www.census.gov/programs-surveys/decennial-census/about/psa… Through the CTPP program, there was a pretty good webinar about PSAP and re-tracting a few months ago Compliments! Find that PSAP webinar and presentation materials here.<https://ctpp.transportation.org/policy-change-on-small-geography/p… Good luck.
