7 CFR Part 225

RIN 0584-AE72


Streamlining Program Requirements and Improving Integrity in the 
Summer Food Service Program; Correction

AGENCY: Food and Nutrition Service (FNS), Department of Agriculture 
(USDA).

ACTION: Correcting amendments.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Food and Nutrition Service (FNS) is correcting regulations 
that published in a final rule in the Federal Register of September 19, 
2022, and went into effect in the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) on 
October 1, 2022. The rule amended the Summer Food Service Program 
(SFSP) regulations to strengthen program integrity by clarifying, 
simplifying, and streamlining program administration to facilitate 
compliance with program requirements.

DATES: Effective December 27, 2022.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Anne Fiala, 703-305-2590, 
[email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The final rule that appeared in the Federal 
Register on September 19, 2022 (87 FR 57304), included non-substantive 
revisions to the introductory text of 7 CFR 225.16(d) that made the 
text consistent with other reverences in part 225 and used plain 
language. In making this change, paragraphs (d)(1) through (3) of Sec.  
225.16 were inadvertently removed leaving only the introductory text of 
Sec.  225.16(d). This document corrects that error and restores the 
entirety of Sec.  225.16(d). To conform with current Federal Register 
requirements, tables found in these restored paragraphs are revised to 
include headings that note their citation in 7 CFR part 225.
    In addition, the definition of ``documentation'' in Sec.  225.2 is 
renumbered to reflect the correct paragraph structure requirements for 
the Code of Federal Regulations. Finally, a separate, special 
memorandum will be issued in the future to correct a formatting error 
in table 1 to paragraph (e)(6)(iv) of Sec.  225.7.

List of Subjects in 7 CFR Part 225

    Food assistance programs, Grant programs--health, Infants and 
children, Labeling, Reporting and recordkeeping requirements.

    Accordingly, for reasons stated in the preamble, FNS amends 7 CFR 
part 225 by making the following technical corrections:
