Re: [CTPP] PSAP / TAZ Update from CTPP Oversight Board

by Michael R Ratcliffe

All, To clarify: The Census Bureau's initial contact regarding participation in the 2020 Participant Statistical Areas Program (PSAP) has been to those organizations that were the primary participants in the 2010 PSAP, asking if they wanted to continue on as the primary participant for 2020. This helps facilitate continuity from one decade to another. If the 2010 participant accepts the invitation for 2020, then other interested groups and individuals are encouraged to work with and through the primary participant. If the 2010 participant declines for 2020, then we will be looking for another organization, within the same geographic area, with whom to partner for the 2020 PSAP review and update block groups, census tracts, census designated places, and (in selected states) census county divisions. At this time, geographers in the Census Bureau's Regional Census Centers are compiling the list of other groups that might be able to serve as a primary participant should the 2010 PSAP participant decline for 2020.

I believe the SDC leads/state demographers are compiling these lists for their states. I know they were asked to do so, and I had a conversation with Eric Guthrie here in Michigan about PSAP in the SEMCOG region.
