Title: Review of Major Changes in Program Design and Management Evaluation Systems 
Abstract:

The final rule will amend 7 CFR parts 271, 272, and 275 to codify section 4116 of the Food, Conservation, and Energy Act of 2008. This section, Review of Major Changes in Program Design, requires the Secretary to develop standards for identifying major changes in the operations of a State agency that administers SNAP. Once FNS has determined that a State reported operational change is considered major, the State will be required to report to FNS, on a regular basis, information related to the impact of the change on program integrity and program access.
