Short Statement:
This is a revision of a currently approved collection. This collection is currently approved with 9,808,454 burden hours and 47,631,996 responses. For this renewal, FNS has adjusted the decimal conversions for the time estimates for some of the information requirements to keep the conversions consistent across the agency's collections. These adjustments have increased the burden for the collection by 247 hours. The estimated number of responses (and respondents) remain unchanged from the previous renewal. The increase in burden hours is due to an adjustment. With this renewal, FNS estimates that this collection will have 9,808,701 burden hours and 47,631,996 responses.
