Food Nutrition Service

    Title: Forms FNS-806-A, Claim for Reimbursement (National School 
Lunch and School Breakfast Programs), and FNS-806-B, Claim for 
Reimbursement (School Milk Program for Children), 7 CFR part 210, part 
220, and part 215.
    OMB Control Number: 0584-0284.
    Summary of Collection: Section 3(a)(10) of the Child Nutrition Act 
of 1966, as amended, requires that State educational agencies to funds 
paid to the State during any fiscal year for the purposes of carrying 
out provisions of the Special Milk Program (SMP) in accordance with 
agreements approved by the Secretary. Section 4 of the Child Nutrition 
Act, as amended authorizes payments to the States to assist them to 
initiate, maintain, or expand nonprofit breakfast programs in schools, 
namely the School Breakfast Program (SBP). Section 3 of the Richard B. 
Russell National School Lunch Act (NSLA), as amended, authorizes funds 
for States to operate the National School Lunch Program. To fulfill the 
reimbursement requirements set forth in NSLP, SBP, and SMP regulations 
issued by the Secretary of Agriculture (& CFR 210.8, 215.10 and 
220.11), the meal and milk data must be collected on forms FNS-806A and 
806B respectively.
    Need and Use of the Information: The information is collected 
electronically from school food authorities that participate in NSLP, 
School Breakfast Program (SBP), and SMP programs. The forms contain 
meal and cost data collected from authorized program participants. 
Also, these forms are essential part of the accounting system used by 
the subject programs to ensure proper reimbursement. This information 
is collected monthly because of the constant fluctuation in school 
enrollment and program participation. Program participants would not 
receive the monthly reimbursement earned and the Agency would lose 
program accountability, if this information were collect less 
frequently.
