SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Title: 7 CFR Part 210 National School 

Lunch Program, Part 220 School 

Breakfast Program, and Part 215 Special 

Milk Program. 

Form Number: FNS–10. 

OMB Number: 0584–0002. 

Expiration Date: 08/31/2012. 

Type of Request: Revision, of a 

currently approved collection. 

Abstract: The Food and Nutrition 

Service administers the National School 

Lunch Program, the School Breakfast 

Program, and the Special Milk Program 

as mandated by the Richard B. Russell 

National School Lunch Act (NSLA), as 

amended (42 U.S.C. 1751, et seq.), and 

the Child Nutrition Act of 1966, as 

amended (42 U.S.C. 1771, et seq.). As 

provided in 7 CFR 210.5 (d)(1), 

210.4(b)(1)(ii), 215.10(b), and 220.13 

(b)(2), ‘‘Each State agency must submit 

a final report of School Program 

Operations (FNS–10) to FNS for each 

month.’’ FNS uses form FNS–10 to 

collect data on school program 

operations from State agencies on a 

monthly basis. The form is an intrinsic 

part of the accounting system currently 

being used by the subject programs to 

ensure proper reimbursement in a 

timely manner. The FNS–10 form is 

provided to States through a Web-based 

Federal reporting system, and 100 

percent of the information is collected 

through electronic means. The burden 

hours have decreased from the 

previously approved burden (¥2,448) 

due to a previous assessment of burden 

on the submission of optional reports 

(i.e., ‘‘90-Day’’ report revisions due to 

audits, investigations, or management 

evaluations and ‘‘60-Day’’ reports) of 

School Program Operations. For an 

example of the FNS–10 and its 

instructions, see Appendix A at the end 

of this notice. 

Affected Public: State agencies.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Title: Disaster Supplemental Nutrition 

Assistance Program (D–SNAP) . 

OMB Number: 0584–0336. 

Expiration Date: 09/30/2012. 

Type of Request: Extension of a 

previously approved collection. 

Abstract: Pursuant to the Robert T. 

Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency 

Assistance Act, Public Law 100–707, 

and Section 5(h) of the Food and 

Nutrition Act of 2008, 7 U.S.C. 2014(h), 

the Secretary of Agriculture has the 

authority to develop a Disaster 

Supplemental Nutrition Assistance 

Program (D–SNAP) to address the 

temporary food needs of people 

following a disaster. The information 

collected under this notice is required 

from State agencies in order to receive 

approval from the Food and Nutrition 

Service (FNS) to operate a D–SNAP. 

The number of disasters that occur 

annually and the average number of 

households affected by the disasters 

cannot be predicted. During the period 

from calendar year 2006 through 

calendar year 2011, the number of State 

requests for disaster programs ranged 

from 4 to 25 requests. These included 

program modifications requested by 

some States to accommodate evacuees 

from disasters which did not directly 

affect the States themselves. The 

information collection under this 

reporting burden is limited to the 

burden experienced by State agencies in 

preparing their requests to operate 

D–SNAPs. The burden associated with 

the actual operation of D–SNAPs, 

including the processing of applications 

from households affected by disasters, is 

included under OMB information 

collection No. 0584–0064, titled ’’Food 

Stamp Forms: Applications, Periodic 

Reporting, Notices’’ (expiration date 03/ 

31/2013), which includes all 

information collection activities 

associated with the certification of 

participating and applicant households. 

The D–SNAP participation and issuance 

form FNS–292–B, Report of Disaster 

Supplemental Nutrition Assistance 

Benefit Issuance, is covered under the 

OMB information collection No. 0584– 

0037 (expiration date: 07/31/2014) and 

will not be reflected in this submission. 

FNS estimates that approximately 10 

hours of State personnel time are 

required to prepare D–SNAP requests. 

The burden associated with preparing 

requests to operate a D–SNAP does not 

vary significantly from disaster to 

disaster and is relatively independent of 

the scope of the disaster. Major disasters 

require little additional document 

preparation time than relatively minor 

disasters. Based on an estimate of 14 

State agency requests per year to operate 

D–SNAPs and 10 hours of State agency 

personnel time to prepare each 

application, FNS has calculated an 

estimated burden of 140 hours per year 

in an average year. No increase in 

burden was estimated under this 

collection. 

Summary of burden hours: 

Affected Public: State agencies and 

local governments. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

14. 

Estimated Number of Responses: 14. 

Estimated Hours per Response: 10.
