A Message from the Director, U.S. Census Bureau…


The U.S. Census Bureau is conducting the final Boundary Validation Program (BVP) in order to provide an opportunity for you as the Highest Elected Official to review the recent 2020 Boundary and Annexation Survey (BAS) updates made to the Census Bureau’s boundary data for governmental units. This is an important opportunity for you to ensure that we have your correct legal boundaries, name and governmental status. The Census Bureau uses the boundary information to tabulate data from the 2020 Decennial Census and the American Community Survey.


The BVP package includes a final BVP form and map products for your governmental unit. Please review our depiction of your legal boundary for accuracy and return the completed BVP form within five days of receipt. The BVP form can be returned via fax (1-800-972-5652), in the enclosed postage paid envelope, or scanned and emailed to <[email protected]v>.


The BVP final review provides you an opportunity to confirm changes or corrections submitted during the 2020 BAS. If the legal boundary for your governmental unit is incorrect, please work with your BAS contact (printed on the enclosed BVP form) to submit corrections to the January 1, 2020 boundary. Please follow the BAS procedures when submitting any corrections. In order to be included in the tabulation of the 2020 Decennial Census, it is important that we receive corrections as soon as possible.


If you need any assistance with this request, please email <[email protected]v>, telephone (1-800-972-5651), or visit our website at <https://www.census.gov/programs-surveys/bas.html>.
