This is a revision of a previously approved information collection. The number of respondents expected to participate has decrease from 9 to 5 SAs. The current burden inventory is 90 burden hours and 9 total annual responses and FNS is requesting 56 burden hours and 7 total annual responses for this revision. This reflect a decrease of -34 burden hours and -2 total annual responses to this data collection request. These adjustments are a direct result in the decreased number of State D-SNAP agencies requests from fiscal year 2015 through fiscal year 2018. FNS is also revising the total burden estimate to account for burden activities modify and expand that were inadvertently omitted from previous approvals of this collection. Once approved by FNS to operate D-SNAP, State agencies must submit any subsequent requests to modify operations or expand D-SNAP to newly eligible areas to FNS for approval. These modification or expansion requests usually occur when a large-scale disaster impacts different areas of a State in different ways or at different times, and typically require substantially less time to prepare than initial D-SNAP requests.
