members will participate in the survey 

and records collection, and 25 staff will 

only participate in in-person interviews 

on site. 

Similarly, 40 county and local SNAP 

office staff will be asked to complete all 

four components of the study. Two 

people at each site, minus the 40 who 

will complete all four study components 

(for a total of 260 respondents) will 

participate in the survey, the telephone 

interview, and the records collection, 

but will not receive the in-person 

interviews. A total of approximately 50 

county and local SNAP office staff will 

participate in in-person interviews only. 

Twenty staff from SNAP partners will 

also be asked to respond to a phone 

interview, to participate in in-person 

interviews, and to provide available 

data records from the past 12 months. 

For SNAP partners, 163 staff members 

will be invited to participate in a 

telephone interview, and those 

participants will also be asked to 

conduct the records collection. Another 

30 SNAP partners will participate in inperson interviews, but not in the other 

study components.. 

Estimated Time per Response: The 

estimated time of response varies from 

10 minutes (0.167 hours) to 4 hours, 

depending on the respondent and type 

of instrument, as shown in the table 

below. 

Estimated Total Annual Burden on 

Respondents: 3184.48 hours.

aFor this collection, the estimated number of respondents and total annual responses are the same, as all data collection will occur within the 

span of one year. While respondents will be invited to submit no more than one response in each response category (responses annually per respondent is equal to one for each category), individual respondents may be involved in more than one aspect of this collection (so, some respondents may participate in both the survey and the in-person interview). bThis average includes time burden incurred by nonresponders for reviewing the invitation to participate in the collection and informational materials as well as time that responders spend submitting information under each category.

Title: Monthly Claims for 

Reimbursement. 

OMB Number: 0584–0284. 

Expiration Date: February 28, 2010. 

Type of Request: Revision of a 

currently approved information 

collection. 

Abstract: The National School Lunch 

Program (NSLP) and School Breakfast 

Program (SBP), and School Milk 

Program (SMP) Claim for 

Reimbursement, Forms FNS–806–A and 

FNS–806–B, respectively, are used to 

collect meal and milk data from school 

food authorities whose participation in 

these programs are administered 

directly by the Food and Nutrition 

Service (FNS) Regional Offices 

(Regional Office Administered 

Programs, or ROAP). The FNS Regional 

Office directly administers the NSLP, 

SMP, and/or SBP programs in Virginia, 

Georgia, and Colorado. In order to 

determine the amount of reimbursement 

for meals and milk served, the school 

food authorities are required to 

complete these forms. The completed 

forms are either sent to the Child 

Nutrition Payments Center at the FNS 

Mid-Atlantic Regional Office where they 

are entered into a computerized 

payment system or submitted 

electronically via the Internet directly 

into the Child Nutrition Payments 

Center. The payment system computes 

earned reimbursement. Earned 

reimbursement in the NSLP, SBP and 

SMP is based on performance that is 

measured as an assigned rate per meal 

or half pint of milk served. To fulfill the 

earned reimbursement requirements set 

forth in NSLP, SBP and SMP regulations 

issued by the Secretary of Agriculture (7 

CFR 210.8 and 220.11; and 215.10), the 

meal and milk data must be collected on 

Forms FNS–806–A and FNS–806–B, 

respectively. These forms are an 

intrinsic part of the accounting system 

currently being used by the subject 

programs to ensure proper 

reimbursement. 

Respondents: The respondents are 

State and local governments 

participating in the NSLP, SBP and SMP 

under the auspices of the FNS ROAP.

[Docket No. APHIS–2009–0005] 

Notice of Determination of the Highly 

Pathogenic Avian Influenza Subtype 

H5N1 Status of Hungary 

AGENCY: Animal and Plant Health 

Inspection Service, USDA. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: We are advising the public of 

our determination regarding the highly 

pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) 

subtype H5N1 status of Hungary 

following outbreaks in 2006 and 2007. 

Based on our evaluation of the animal 

health status of two counties (Ba ́csKiskun and Csongra ́d) in Hungary, 

which we made available to the public 

for review and comment through a 

previous notice, the Administrator has 

determined that the importation of live 

birds, poultry carcasses, parts or 

products of poultry carcasses, and eggs 

(other than hatching eggs) of poultry, 

game birds, and other birds from 

Hungary presents a low risk of 

introducing HPAI H5N1 into the United 

States. 

DATES: Effective Date: This 

determination will be effective on 

October 9, 2009. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mr. 

Javier Vargas, Case Manager, 

Regionalization Evaluation Services 

Staff, National Center for Import and 

Export, VS, APHIS, 4700 River Road, 

Unit 38, Riverdale, MD 20737–1231; 

(301) 734–0756. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On June 15, 2009, we published in the 

Federal Register (74 FR 28217–28218) a 

notice 1A1 in which we announced the 

availability for review and comment of 

an evaluation of the animal health status 

of two counties (Ba ́cs-Kiskun and 

Csongra ́d) in Hungary relative to highly 

pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) 

subtype H5N1. In the evaluation, titled 

‘‘APHIS’ Evaluation of the Status of 

High Pathogenicity Avian Influenza 

H5N1 Virus in Hungary’’ (November 

2008), we presented the results of our 

evaluation of the prevalence of HPAI 

H5N1 in domestic poultry in the two 

counties in light of the actions taken by 

Hungary’s Department for Food Chain 

Safety and Animal Health (DFCSAH) 

during and since the outbreaks of HPAI
