        <RULE_TITLE>Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants and Children (WIC): WIC Online Ordering and Transactions and Food Delivery Revisions to Meet the Needs of a Modern, Data-Driven Program</RULE_TITLE>

<body>
<p>This final rulemaking addresses key regulatory barriers to online ordering in the WIC Program by making changes to the provisions that prevent online transactions and types of online capable stores from participating in the Program. This rule will also allow FNS to modernize WIC vendor regulations that do not reflect current technology and facilitate the Program&rsquo;s transition to EBT.&nbsp; FNS will consider public comments received during the proposed rulemaking stage in development of this final rule.&nbsp;</p>
