To establish Child and Adult Care Food Program eligibility and insure that the program is administered according to statutory and USDA implementing regulations.
This is a revision of a currently approved information collection. The current burden inventory is 5,902,995. We are requesting 7,032,870 which is an increase of 1,129,875 hours. The increase in burden hours is the result of regulatory provisions included in the information collection that were not included in previous renewals and there were also adjustments made in the frequency of reporting and recordkeeping requirements. In addition, FNS plans to merge OMB #0584-0078, Report of the Child and Adult Care Food Program, FNS-44 form into this collection. There are 1,980 burden hours in this inventory; however, we plan to merge only 1,320 because the burden in 0584-0078 was overestimated.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that the collection of information encompassed by this request complies with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR 1320.8(b)(3).
The following is a summary of the topics, regarding the proposed collection of information, that the certification covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;
(iii) Burden estimate;
(iv) Nature of response (voluntary, required for a benefit, or mandatory);
(v) Nature and extent of confidentiality; and
(vi) Need to display currently valid OMB control number;
If you are unable to certify compliance with any of these provisions, identify the item by leaving the box unchecked and explain the reason in the Supporting Statement.
