FNS-366B Revision Burden Narrative

Part 272
Requirements for Participating State Agencies
7 CFR 272.2(c) & (e) Budget Projection Statement and Program Activity Statement,
Submittal Requirements
The State agency (SA) shall submit to FNS for approval a Budget Projection Statement
(which projects total Federal administrative costs for the upcoming fiscal year) and a
Program Activity Statement (which provides program activity data for the preceding
fiscal year). The SA agency must submit the Program Activity Statement, or form FNS–
366B, to FNS no later than 45 days after the end of the State agency’s fiscal year, which
is typically August 15 for most States. Form FNS–366B is required to substantiate the
costs the State agency expects to incur during the next fiscal year. It provides data on the
number of SNAP applications the State agency processed, the number of fair hearings the
State agency conducted, and the fraud control activities of the State agency. Fifty-three
(53) SA’s submit 1 response annually for a total of 53 annual responses. The annual
reporting burden for form FNS–366B report is 35 hours per respondent to complete the
form. The burden should have been reported as 17.93 hours per response
(53x1=53x17.93 = 950.29. This burden was incorrectly reported as 24.5 during the FPRS
data call (53x1=53x24.5 = 1,299). The reporting burden we are requesting for form
FNS–366B alone is 1,855 hours (53SA × 1 annual report = 53 total annual responses
× 35 hours per response = 1,855). This reflects a increase of 556 due to program
adjustments.
