Food and Nutrition Service

    Title: Summer Food Service Program Claim for Reimbursement.
    OMB Control Number: 0584-0041.
    Summary of Collection: The Summer Food Service Program Claim for 
Reimbursement Form is used to collect meal and cost data from sponsors 
to determine the reimbursement entitlement for meals served. The form 
is sent to the Food and Nutrition Service's (FNS) Regional Offices 
where it is entered into a computerized payment system. The payment 
system computes earnings to date and the number of meals to date and 
generates payments for the amount of earnings in excess of prior 
advance and claim payments. To fulfill the earned reimbursement 
requirements set forth in the Summer Food Service Program Regulations 
issued by the Secretary of Agriculture (7 CFR 225.9), the meal and cost 
data must be collected on the FNS-143, Claim for Reimbursement form.
    Need and Use of the Information: FNS will collect information to 
manage, plan, evaluate, and account for government resources. The 
reports and records are required to ensure the proper and judicious use 
of public funds. If the information is not collected on the claim form, 
the sponsor could not receive reimbursement.
    Description of Respondents: Not-for-profit institutions.
    Number of Respondents: 123.
    Frequency of Responses: Recordkeeping; Reporting: Other (5 per 
year).
    Total Burden Hours: 423.
