| Block Boundary Suggestion Project (BBSP) | Business | The first phase of the Census Bureau's Public Law 94-171 program-the Redistricting Data Program-that provided an opportunity for state officials to identify map features that they wanted the Bureau to recognize as block boundaries for the decennial census. They also could identify 1) features they did not want held as block boundaries; 2) features they wanted held as block boundaries on a contingency basis, such as the imaginary extension of a street to a city limit if that legal boundary did not change by January 1 of the census year; and 3) the legal location of the boundaries of state legislative districts.
