criteria were also presented. Through a
voting process, eleven meeting
participants heard summaries of
planning accomplishments to date,
provided input on issues and concerns
to be considered in the planning
process, were made aware of results
from the reservoir sedimentation survey,
and identified which planning
alternative (i.e., No Action,
Decommission, Structural, NonStructural) was most desirable.
Conclusion
The Environmental Assessment
summarized above indicates that this
Federal action will not cause significant
adverse local, regional, or national
impacts on the environment. Therefore,
based on the above findings, I have
determined that an environmental
impact statement for the recommended
plan of action on Marbury Creek
Watershed Structure No. 22 is not
required.

10.555 and 10.558 and are subject to the
provisions of Executive Order 12372,
which requires intergovernmental
consultation with State and local
officials. (See 7 CFR part 3015, subpart
V, and final rule related notice
published at 48 FR 29114, June 24,
1983.)
This notice imposes no new reporting
or recordkeeping provisions that are
subject to Office of Management and
Budget review in accordance with the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44
U.S.C. 3507). This action is not a rule
as defined by the Regulatory Flexibility
Act (5 U.S.C. 601–612) and thus is
exempt from the provisions of that Act.
This notice was reviewed by the Office
of Management and Budget under
Executive Order 12866.
National Average Minimum Value of
Donated Foods for the Period July 1,
2009 Through June 30, 2010
This notice implements mandatory
provisions of sections 6(c) and
17(h)(1)(B) of the National School
Lunch Act (the Act) (42 U.S.C. 1755(c)
and 1766(h)(1)(B)). Section 6(c)(1)(A) of
the Act establishes the national average
value of donated food assistance to be
given to States for each lunch served in
the NSLP at 11.00 cents per meal.
Pursuant to section 6(c)(1)(B), this
amount is subject to annual adjustments
on July 1 of each year to reflect changes
in a three-month average value of the
Price Index for Foods Used in Schools
and Institutions for March, April, and
May each year (Price Index). Section
17(h)(1)(B) of the Act provides that the
same value of donated foods (or cash in
lieu of donated foods) for school
lunches shall also be established for
lunches and suppers served in the
CACFP. Notice is hereby given that the
national average minimum value of
donated foods, or cash in lieu thereof,
per lunch under the NSLP (7 CFR part
210) and per lunch and supper under
the CACFP (7 CFR part 226) shall be
19.5 cents for the period July 1, 2009
through June 30, 2010.
The Price Index is computed using
five major food components in the
Bureau of Labor Statistics Producer
Price Index (cereal and bakery products;
meats, poultry and fish; dairy; processed
fruits and vegetables; and fats and oils).
Each component is weighted using the
relative weight as determined by the
Bureau of Labor Statistics. The value of
food assistance is adjusted each July 1
by the annual percentage change in a
three-month average value of the Price
Index for March, April, and May each
year. The three-month average of the
Price Index decreased by 5.5 percent
from 182.01 for March, April, and May

of 2008, as previously published in the
Federal Register, to 171.97 for the same
three months in 2009. When computed
on the basis of unrounded data and
rounded to the nearest one-quarter cent,
the resulting national average for the
period July 1, 2009 through June 30,
2010 will be 19.50 cents per meal. This
is a decrease of 1.25 cents from the
school year 2009 (July 1, 2008 through
June 30, 2009) rate.
Authority: Sections 6(c)(1)(A) and (B),
6(e)(1), and 17(h)(1)(B) of the National School
Lunch Act, as amended (42 U.S.C.
1755(c)(1)(A) and (B) and (e)(1), and
1766(h)(1)(B)).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
Special Milk Program for Children—
Pursuant to section 3 of the Child
Nutrition Act of 1966, as amended (42
U.S.C. 1772), the Department announces
the rate of reimbursement for a half-pint
of milk served to non-needy children in
a school or institution that participates
in the Special Milk Program for
Children. This rate is adjusted annually
to reflect changes in the Producer Price
Index for Fluid Milk Products,
published by the Bureau of Labor
Statistics of the Department of Labor.
For the period July 1, 2009 through
June 30, 2010, the rate of reimbursement
for a half-pint of milk served to a nonneedy child in a school or institution
which participates in the Special Milk
Program is 16.00 cents. This reflects a
decrease of 12.67 percent in the
Producer Price Index for Fluid Milk
Products from May 2008 to May 2009
(from a level of 199.7 in May 2008 as
previously published in the Federal
Register to 174.4 in May 2009).
As a reminder, schools or institutions
with pricing programs that elect to serve
milk free to eligible children continue to
receive the average cost of a half-pint of
milk (the total cost of all milk purchased
during the claim period divided by the
total number of purchased half-pints)
for each half-pint served to an eligible
child.
National School Lunch and School
Breakfast Programs—Pursuant to
sections 11 and 17A of the Richard B.
Russell National School Lunch Act, (42
U.S.C. 1759a and 1766a), and section 4
of the Child Nutrition Act of 1966 (42
U.S.C. 1773), the Department annually
announces the adjustments to the
National Average Payment Factors and
to the maximum Federal reimbursement
rates for lunches and afterschool snacks
served to children participating in the
National School Lunch Program and
breakfasts served to children
participating in the School Breakfast
Program. Adjustments are prescribed
each July 1, based on changes in the
Food Away From Home series of the
Consumer Price Index for All Urban
Consumers, published by the Bureau of
Labor Statistics of the Department of
Labor. The changes in the national
average payment rates for schools and
residential child care institutions for the
period July 1, 2009 through June 30,
2010 reflect a 4.232 percent increase in
the Consumer Price Index for All Urban
Consumers during the 12-month period
May 2008 to May 2009 (from a level of
213.967 in May 2008 as previously
published in the Federal Register to
223.023 in May 2009). Adjustments to
PO 00000
Frm 00012
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
the national average payment rates for
all lunches served under the National
School Lunch Program, breakfasts
served under the School Breakfast
Program, and afterschool snacks served
under the National School Lunch
Program are rounded down to the
nearest whole cent.
Lunch Payment Levels—Section 4 of
the Richard B. Russell National School
Lunch Act (42 U.S.C. 1753) provides
general cash for food assistance
payments to States to assist schools in
purchasing food. The Richard B. Russell
National School Lunch Act provides
two different section 4 payment levels
for lunches served under the National
School Lunch Program. The lower
payment level applies to lunches served
by school food authorities in which less
than 60 percent of the lunches served in
the school lunch program during the
second preceding school year were
served free or at a reduced price. The
higher payment level applies to lunches
served by school food authorities in
which 60 percent or more of the lunches
served during the second preceding
school year were served free or at a
reduced price.
To supplement these section 4
payments, section 11 of the Richard B.
Russell National School Lunch Act (42
U.S.C.1759(a)) provides special cash
assistance payments to aid schools in
providing free and reduced price
lunches. The section 11 National
Average Payment Factor for each
reduced price lunch served is set at 40
cents less than the factor for each free
lunch.
As authorized under sections 8 and 11
of the Richard B. Russell National
School Lunch Act (42 U.S.C. 1757 and
1759a), maximum reimbursement rates
for each type of lunch are prescribed by
the Department in this Notice. These
maximum rates are to ensure equitable
disbursement of Federal funds to school
food authorities.
Afterschool Snack Payments in
Afterschool Care Programs—Section
17A of the Richard B. Russell National
School Lunch Act (42 U.S.C. 1766a)
establishes National Average Payments
for free, reduced price and paid
afterschool snacks as part of the
National School Lunch Program.
Breakfast Payment Factors—Section 4
of the Child Nutrition Act of 1966 (42
U.S.C. 1773) establishes National
Average Payment Factors for free,
reduced price and paid breakfasts
served under the School Breakfast
Program and additional payments for
free and reduced price breakfasts served
in schools determined to be in ‘‘severe
need’’ because they serve a high
percentage of needy children.
