Краткое содержание

OMB requests comments on recommendations that it has received from the Metropolitan Area Standards Review Committee (MASRC) for changes to OMB's metropolitan area (MA) standards. MASRC's report and recommendations, which are published in their entirety in the Appendix, are the result of a comprehensive review of the MA concept and current (1990) standards that began earlier this decade. The review will culminate in publication prior to Census 2000 of standards for the first decade of the next century.
