Short Statement: This is a revision of a currently approved information collection. The currently approved burden is 6,631 burden hours and 3,469 responses. There are reductions due to both program changes and adjustments. The removal of FNS-74 Federal-State Agreement and its associated burden due to it being a permanent record will reduce 25 burden hours and 150 responses due to a program change. There is one fewer State agency respondent for this collection which will reduce 55 burden hours and 28 responses due to an adjustment. Overall, these changes will reduce the burden by 80 burden hours and 178 responses. As a result of this renewal, FNS estimates that this collection will have 6,551 burden hours and 3,291 responses.
