This information collection is
required to administer and operate this program in accordance with
the Child Nutrition Act. The program is administered at the State
agency level. Reports submitted and records maintained include
agreements, financial reports, and the maintenance of accounting
records for State Administrative Funds (SAE). The USDA Food and
Nutrition Service administers the Child Nutrition Programs
(CNP).
This is a revision of a
currently approved information collection with 13,548 burden hours
and 12,890 responses. Due to adjustments resulting from decreases
in the number of State agencies, updates to frequencies and
response times, and the removal of duplicate reporting burden, FNS
estimates that the burden hours for this collection will decrease
by 6,917 hours and 9,421 responses. Therefore, FNS estimates that
the revised burden with this renewal will be 6,631 burden hours and
3,469 responses.
