Title: CHILD-CARE FOOD PROGRAM REGULATIONS (PART 226)
Type of Information Collection: Revision of a currently approved collection	Common Form ICR:  No
Type of Review Request: Regular
OIRA Conclusion Action: Approved without change	Conclusion Date: 09/21/1982
Retrieve Notice of Action (NOA)	Date Received in OIRA: 07/22/1982
Terms of Clearance: These forms are approved for one year. The resubmission must include a detailed justification for each of the forms, with a description of the steps taken to ensure that all possible steps to reduce burden have been taken. The FNS-433 apears to be overly burdensome, as sponsoring organizations and day care providers should be given the flexibility to negotiate contracts of their own design, as long as the sponsoring ogranization assures FNS that all regulatory requirements will be met. If the FNS-433 is resubmitted for clearance the supporting statement must respond to this issue. Furthermore, the 0584-0055 resubmission must include a finding by the Departmental IRM staff as to whether the requirements of Section 226.6(k) are covered by the Paperwork Reduction Act, and, if it is, how the 4000 hour per respondent burden can be significantly reduced.
