This is a revision of a
currently approved collection. The currently approved information
collection burden is 38 total burden hours and 270 total annual
responses. In this revision, we are requesting 1,083 total burden
hours and 3,430 total annual responses and increase of 1,045 total
burden hours and 3,160 total annual responses. The information
collection burden estimates have increased due to two adjustments.
The previously approved collection incorrectly assessed that each
State agency submitted 1 request each for FNS 700. In the burden
chart above, we have adjusted this submission to reflect the
frequency expected and the total annual responses for Option 1 and
Option 2 for reporting this activity to FNS.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that
the collection of information encompassed by this request complies
with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR
1320.8(b)(3).
The following is a summary of the topics, regarding
the proposed collection of information, that the certification
covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;
(iii) Burden estimate;
(iv) Nature of response (voluntary, required for a
benefit, or mandatory);
(v) Nature and extent of confidentiality; and
(vi) Need to display currently valid OMB control
number;
If you are unable to certify compliance with any of
these provisions, identify the item by leaving the box unchecked
and explain the reason in the Supporting Statement.
