30-Day Federal Register Notice

Food and Nutrition Service

    Title: Summer Food Service Program Integrity Study.
    OMB Control Number: 0584-NEW.
    Summary of Collection: The Summer Food Service Program (SFSP) 
ensures that low-income children continue to receive nutritious meals 
when school is not in session and they do not have access to free or 
low-cost meals through the National School Lunch and School Breakfast 
Programs. The Improper Payments Elimination and Recovery Act of 2010 
(Pub. L. 111-204) and the Improper Payments Elimination and Recovery 
Improvement Act of 2012 (Pub. L. 112-248) require Federal agencies to 
review programs and activities every three years to identify those that 
may be vulnerable to significant improper payments. Previous 
assessments have shown that the SFSP is at a low risk for improper 
payments but recent efforts to address summer food insecurity through 
improving access to SFSP have increased program expenditures, which may 
lead to increased risk of improper payments. SFSP also presents unique 
challenges to ensuring program integrity and measuring improper 
payments. FNS is conducting the Summer Food Service Program Integrity 
Study to obtain information about the administration and oversight of 
the SFSP and to identify potential barriers to ensuring the integrity 
and effective management of the SFSP.
    Need and Use of the Information: This study will collect data from 
State Child Nutrition Agency directors, State Agency key staff, local 
SFSP sponsor directors, sponsor key staff, and SFSP site supervisors, 
and business SFSP sponsor directors, sponsor key staff, and SFSP site 
supervisors using web-based surveys and telephone interviews. FNS will 
use the data to describe how State agencies, sponsors, and sites 
monitor the SFSP and ensure program integrity, to develop resources, 
training, and technical assistance, and to shape future efforts to 
estimate improper payment rates in the SFSP.
    Description of Respondents: State, Local, or Tribal Government; and 
Profit/Non-Profit Businesses.
    Number of Respondents: 617.
    Frequency of Responses: Reporting: On occasion; Once.
    Total Burden Hours: 379.
