SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On March 15, 2002 (67 FR 11663), the Census
Bureau published a Federal Register Notice of Final Program Criteria
announcing its criteria for defining urban and rural territory based on
the results of Census 2000. The Census Bureau is correcting the final
criteria as they apply to Guam.
The Census Bureau is providing the following correction to the
original Notice.
Page 11667, Column 1, first paragraph under the ``Urban Area
Criteria for Census 2000'' heading: ``The following criteria apply to
the 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, American Samoa,
Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands, and the Virgin Islands of the
United States'' is corrected to read, ``The following criteria apply to
the 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, American Samoa,
the Northern Mariana Islands, and the Virgin Islands of the United
States. The criteria also can be applied to Guam, at the request of the
Governor. Lacking such a request, all urban population in Guam,
regardless of cluster size, will be designated as in ``urban
clusters.''
This correction is provided in accordance with an agreement between
the Census Bureau and the government of Guam. All urban areas defined
within Guam based on the results of Census 2000 are designated as urban
clusters regardless of their total population.
