Short Statement: This is a revision of a currently approved information collection. The number of School Food Authorities participating in the information collection decreased from 1,268 to 0 because the previous information collection (about school year 2022-23) had a web survey for a sample of School Food Authorities and this information collection request (about school year 2023-24) does not. The number of State agencies participating in the information collection hasn’t changed (it was and is still 68 State agencies). The adjustment reflects that we are requesting fewer responses (735 responses) than the last collection (11,869 responses). The adjustment also reflects that we are requesting about half as many total annual hours (945 hours) as the last collection (2030.5 hours).

Annual Cost to Federal Government: $507,848
