CONSOLIDATION

Whenever Census Tract 2010 is changed Census Tr Certainty 2010 must be changed accordingly:

1. If Census Tract 2010 is 999996 (waiting for geocoding) or 999993 (unknown city and unknown ZIP) or 999994 or 999999, then Census Tr Certainty 2010 must be set to blank.

2. If the address at diagnosis has been sent for tracting once and the geocoder could only locate the address at the county centroid,  the Census Tract 2010 will be populated with 9999997 and Census Tract Certainty will be 9.

3. If the address at diagnosis has been sent for tracting twice and the geocoder could only locate the address at the county centroid on the 2nd attempt, Census Tract 2010 will be 999998 and Census Tract Certainty will be 9.

4. If Census Tract 2010 is tracted and a Census Tr Certainty 2010 code is available (whether through geocoding, linking a tumor with a tracted address, or manual entry of a Census Tr Certainty 2010 value) the available Census Tr Certainty 2010 code should be used.

5. If Census Tract 2010 is tracted, but Census Tr Certainty 2010 is not available, Census Tract 2010 should be set to 999996 and Census Tr Certainty should be set to blank.
