FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Requests for additional information or

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: 7 CFR Part 226, Child and Adult
Care Food Program.
OMB Numbers: 0584–0055.
Expiration Date: 3/31/2009.
Type of Request: Revision of currently
approved information collection.
Abstract: FNS is amending the
regulations for the Child and Adult Care
Food Program (CACFP) at 7 CFR Part
226 to incorporate the provisions of the
William F. Goodling Child Nutrition
Reauthorization Act of 1998, which
authorized certain afterschool care
centers to be reimbursed for snacks
served to at-risk children 18 years of age
and younger. The rule is also being
amended to establish the eligibility of
at-risk afterschool care centers to serve
free snacks to children who participate
in afterschool programs. These changes
were originally proposed by the
Department in a rulemaking published
on October 11, 2000 (65 FR 60502).
Due to the drop-in nature of many
afterschool programs, the Department
did not propose extensive reporting and
recordkeeping requirements. In addition
to application and eligibility records, an
at-risk center must document daily
attendance, number of snacks prepared
or delivered, number of snacks served,
and menus for each snack service.
Consistent with the objective of keeping
program administration minimal, the
Department proposed only one
additional reporting requirement—that
at-risk centers report the total number of
snacks served to eligible children. The
proposed recordkeeping and reporting
provisions are maintained in the final
rule.
Affected Public: State, local or tribal
Government, Individuals or
Households, Business or other for-profit
institutions, Not-for-profit institutions,
and Federal government.
