Short Statement:
This is a revision of a currently approved information collection. The current burden inventory is 1,758,167. The number of State Agencies increased from 54 to 56; SFA increased from 16,342 to 20,858; Schools decreased from 101,000 to 96,461, however, the burden hours increased from 52,520 to 192,922. This is due to the increase in frequency of responses from 6 to 8 and an increase in the burden hour per respondent from 0.080 minutes (approximately 5 minutes) to 0.25 minutes (15 minutes). The household respondents increased from 4,138,810 to 9,390,000 which increase the household burden from 289,717 to 657,300 an increase of 367,583 burden hours. Additionally, recordkeeping has been decreased from 125,918 to 6,045 State and School Food Authorities are required to keep provision 2 and provision 3 data on file indefinitely; however, all other records are not required to be kept for more than three years. Therefore, the recordkeeping burden for all other provisions in 7 CFR Part 245 has been eliminated. The overall, burden hours has decreased by 684,798 hours. This program change is due to a decrease in burden hours in recordkeeping at the State and Local agency level; therefore, we are requesting 1,073,432.
