Administrative Review Form

This information is being collected from State agencies, school food authorities, schools. This is a
revision of a currently approved information collection. The Richard B. Russell National School
Lunch Act (NSLA) 42 U.S.C. § 1758, as amended, authorizes the National School Lunch Program
(NSLP). This information is required to administer and operate this program in accordance with
the NSLA. Under the Privacy Act of 1974, any personally identifying information obtained will be
kept private to the extent of the law. According to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, an
agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of
information unless it displays a valid OMB control number. The valid OMB control number for
this information collection is 0584-0006. The time required to complete this information
collection is estimated to average 47.5 hours of reporting burden per response. The burden
consists of the time it takes for the State agency to conduct the off-site portion of the review
which includes scheduling of the review and the completion of the Off-site Assessment, Resource
Management Risk Indicator, and Site Selection Tools. Send comments regarding this burden
estimate or any other aspect of this collection of information, including suggestions for reducing
this burden, to: U.S. Department of Agriculture, Food and Nutrition Services, Office of Policy

1812. Indicate which meal service(s) is being observed.
1813. Observe the meal service and determine if all meals were served and claimed for eligible

and the reviewer’s count, the question must be answered NO. Record any differences on the
SSO S-1, line 9.
1821. Obtain the average meal count for the meal service that was observed from the previous five (5)
operating days and compare it to the day of review count. Evaluate the counts and indicate if an
unreasonable shift occurred in the total count from the most recent five (5) serving days to the
