    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

burden increased from 1,329 to 1,381 hours. The average burden per 
response and the annual burden hours for reporting, recordkeeping, and 
public disclosure are explained below and summarized in the charts
