Short Statement: This is a revision of a currently approved collection with 11,337,787 burden hours and 64,489,922 responses. With this renewal, FNS estimates that the burden hours will decrease by 1,466,392 hours and the responses by 14,740,422 responses. These decreases are due to administrative adjustments resulting from updates to the number of SFAs and schools, the use of electronic systems, and the removal of information requirements that are either no longer required, duplicate existing burden, or have been transferred into the Food Programs Reporting System (FPRS), OMB # 0584-0594. FNS estimates that this renewal will have 9,871,395 burden hours and 49,749,500 responses.
