Abstract: SFSP is authorized under section 13 of the Richard B.
Russell National School Lunch Act (NSLA) (42 U.S.C. 1761). The SFSP is
directed toward children in low-income areas when school is not in
session and is operated locally by approved sponsors. Local sponsors
may include public or private non-profit school food authorities
(SFAs), public or private non-profit residential summer camps, units of
local, municipal, county or State governments, or other private non-
profit organizations that develop a special summer program and provide
meal service similar to that available to children during the school
year under the National School Lunch Program (NSLP) and the School
Breakfast Program (SBP).
This is a revision of a currently approved collection. It revises
the reporting, recordkeeping, and public disclosure burden as a result
of adjustments (e.g., updated number of sponsors of all site types).
Current OMB inventory for this collection includes Reporting,
Recordkeeping, and Public Disclosure burden that consists of
