To assist American farmers and needy
people by purchasing commodities and delivering them to State
agencies that, in turn, distribute them to organizations for use in
providing food assistance to those in need.
This is a revision of a
currently approved collection, as the result of a proposed rule,
Proposed Changes to the Requirements for the Distribution and
Control of Donated Foods, which substantially re-writes7 CFR Part
250 and makes conforming changes to 7 CFR Part 251. Further, this
revision includes provisions inadvertently omitted in the currently
approved information collection, substantially revises other
provisions which were inaccurate, and updates all relevant aspects
of information collection requirements in the package. As a result
of these changes, there is a net increase of 82,377 hours made to
the package (41,726 hours for program changes due to rulemaking +
14,439 corrections (program changes) to previously omitted hours +
26,212 adjustments due to corrections and updates to existing
burden).
