SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: Operating Guidelines, Forms
and Waivers.
OMB Number: 0584–0083.
Forms: FNS–366A; FNS–366B; SNAP
Waiver Request Form
Expiration Date: April 30, 2017.
Type of Request: Revision of a
currently approved collection.
Abstract: Section 16(a) of the Food
and Nutrition Act of 2008 (the Act)
authorizes 50 percent Federal
reimbursement for State agency costs to
administer the program. 7 CFR 272.2(a)
of SNAP regulations requires that State
agencies plan and budget program
operations and establish objectives for
the next year. The basic components of
the State Plan of Operation are the
Federal/State Agreement, the Budget
Projection Statement (FNS–366A) and
the Program Activity Statement (FNS–
366B) (7 CFR 272.2(a)(2)). Under 7 CFR
272.2(c), the State agency shall submit
to FNS for approval a Budget Projection
Statement (which projects total Federal
administrative costs for the upcoming
fiscal year) and a Program Activity
Statement (which provides program
activity data for the preceding fiscal
year). In addition, certain attachments to
the plan as specified in subparagraphs
PO 00000
Frm 00001
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
(c) and (d) are to be submitted. As
specified in subparagraph (f), State
agencies only have to provide FNS with
changes to these attachments as they
occur. Consequently, these attachments
are considered State plan updates.
Under Section 11(o) of the Act each
State agency is required to develop and
submit plans for the use of automated
data processing (ADP) and information
retrieval systems to administer SNAP.
Section 16(a) of the Act authorizes
partial Federal reimbursement of State
costs for State ADP systems that the
Secretary determines will assist meeting
the requirements of the Act, meets
conditions prescribed by the Secretary,
are likely to provide more efficient and
effective administration of the program,
and are compatible with certain other
Federally-funded systems.
Under 7 CFR 277.18(c)(1) of SNAP
regulations, State agencies must obtain
prior written approval from FNS when
it plans to acquire ADP equipment with
a total acquisition cost of $5 million or
more in Federal and State funds. The
State agency must submit an Advance
Planning Document (APD) prior to
acquiring planning services and an
Implementation APD prior to acquiring
ADP equipment or services.
Additionally, State agencies
administering SNAP may submit formal
written requests, SNAP waiver requests,
to obtain approval from FNS to deviate
from a specific program rule or
regulation. Current procedures require
that in order for FNS to approve a SNAP
waiver request, the State agency must
submit the SNAP Waiver Request Form
via the SWIM application.
In 2014, FNS submitted a change
justification for the SNAP Recipient
Trafficking Data Survey, which added
26.5 hours to this burden. This survey
is no longer being conducted, and the
associated hours are removed from this
collection with this notice. The
reporting burden for forms FNS–366A
and FNS–366B was merged in 2015
with the burden for the Food Programs
Reporting System (OMB control number
0584–0594, expiration date September
30, 2019); therefore, reporting hours
associated with these forms are removed
from this collection with this notice.
However, recordkeeping requirements
for these forms remains in this OMB
Control Number.

Burden Estimates
The burden within this collection
consists of reporting and recordkeeping
burden for the State Plan of Operation
Updates and APD Plans or Updates;
reporting burden for SNAP Waiver
Requests via the SNAP Workflow
Information Management (SWIM)
system; and recordkeeping burden for
forms FNS–366A and FNS–366B. The
current burden is 2,754 hours. The
revised estimated burden for this
collection is 1,120.95 hours (1,088.62
reporting hours and 32.33
recordkeeping hours). This results in a
decrease of 1,633 hours, which is a
result of removing the reporting burden
for forms FNS–366A and FNS–366B and
the SNAP Trafficking Survey from this
collection. The calculation of the
burden for each of these components is
described below:

FNS–366A. State agencies are
required to submit to FNS for approval
a Budget Projection Statement, Form
FNS–366A, which includes projections
of the total Federal costs for major areas
of program operations. There is a total
of 53 recordkeepers for each activity.
for submission of updates to State Plans
of Operation is 6.58 hours per
respondent, resulting in estimated
burden hours of 348.99 (53 × 6.5847 =
348.99).
APD Plans or Updates. We estimate
that up to 53 State agencies may submit
on an average of four (4) APD, plan, or
update submission for a total of 212
annual responses at an average estimate
of 2.5 hours per respondent. The
reporting burden is 530 hours.
SNAP Waiver Request Form. FNS
estimates that out of 53 State agencies
45 State will submit 3.94 of the three
identified waivers annually for a total
number of 177 Waivers annually.
Completion and submission of these
waivers take approximately 1 hour for a

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
SUMMARY:
I. Background
The Department of Commerce
(Department) collects, compiles,
analyzes, and disseminates a treasure
trove of data, including data on the
Nation’s economy, population, and
PO 00000
Frm 00003
Fmt 4703

environment. This data is fundamental
to the Department’s mission and is used
for the protection of life and property,
for scientific purposes, and to enhance
economic growth. However, the
Department’s capacity to disseminate
the increasing amount of data held and
to disseminate it in formats most useful
to its customers is significantly
constrained.
In order to realize the potential value
of the data the Department collects,
stores, and disseminates, the
Department must minimize barriers to
accessing and using the data. Consistent
with privacy and security
considerations, the Department is firmly
committed to unleashing its untapped
data resources in ways that best support
downstream information access,
processing, analysis, and dissemination.
The Commerce Data Advisory Council
(CDAC) provides advice and
recommendations, to include process
and infrastructure improvements, to the
Secretary on ways to make Commerce
data easier to find, access, use, combine
and disseminate. The aim of this advice
shall be to maximize the value of
Commerce data to all users including
governments, businesses, communities,
academia, and individuals.
The Secretary will draw CDAC
membership from the data industry
academia, non-profits and state and
local governments with a focus on
recognized expertise in collection,
compilation, analysis, and
dissemination. As privacy concerns
span the entire data lifecycle, expertise
in privacy protection also will be
represented on the Council. The
Secretary will select members that
represent the entire spectrum of
Commerce data including demographic,
economic, scientific, environmental,
patent, and geospatial data. The
Secretary will select members from the
information technology, business, nonprofit, and academic communities, and
state and local governments.
Collectively, their knowledge will
include all types of data Commerce
distributes and the full lifecycle of data
collection, compilation, analysis, and
dissemination.
II. Description of Duties
The Council shall advise the Secretary
on ways to make Commerce data easier
to find, access, use, combine, and
disseminate. Such advice may include
recommended process and
infrastructure improvements. The aim of
this advice shall be to maximize the
value of Commerce data to governments,
businesses, communities, and
individuals.

Title: Operating Guidelines, Forms and Waivers.
OMB Number: 0584-0083.
Forms: FNS-366A; FNS-366B; SNAP Waiver Request Form
Expiration Date: April 30, 2017.
Type of Request: Revision of a currently approved collection.
Abstract: Section 16(a) of the Food and Nutrition Act of 2008 (the
Act) authorizes 50 percent Federal reimbursement for State agency costs
to administer the program. 7 CFR 272.2(a) of SNAP regulations requires
that State agencies plan and budget program operations and establish
objectives for the next year. The basic components of the State Plan of
Operation are the Federal/State Agreement, the Budget Projection
Statement (FNS-366A) and the Program Activity Statement (FNS-366B) (7
CFR 272.2(a)(2)). Under 7 CFR 272.2(c), the State agency shall submit
to FNS for approval a Budget Projection Statement (which projects total
Federal administrative costs for the upcoming fiscal year) and a
Program Activity Statement (which provides program activity data for
the preceding fiscal year). In addition, certain attachments to the
plan as specified in subparagraphs (c) and (d) are to be submitted. As
specified in subparagraph (f), State agencies only have to provide FNS
with changes to these attachments as they occur. Consequently, these
attachments are considered State plan updates. Under Section 11(o) of
the Act each State agency is required to develop and submit plans for
the use of automated data processing (ADP) and information retrieval
systems to administer SNAP. Section 16(a) of the Act authorizes partial
Federal reimbursement of State costs for State ADP systems that the
Secretary determines will assist meeting the requirements of the Act,
meets conditions prescribed by the Secretary, are likely to provide
more efficient and effective administration of the program, and are
compatible with certain other Federally-funded systems.
Under 7 CFR 277.18(c)(1) of SNAP regulations, State agencies must
obtain prior written approval from FNS when it plans to acquire ADP
equipment with a total acquisition cost of $5 million or more in
Federal and State funds. The State agency must submit an Advance
Planning Document (APD) prior to acquiring planning services and an
Implementation APD prior to acquiring ADP equipment or services.
Additionally, State agencies administering SNAP may submit formal
written requests, SNAP waiver requests, to obtain approval from FNS to
deviate from a specific program rule or regulation. Current procedures
require that in order for FNS to approve a SNAP waiver request, the
State agency must submit the SNAP Waiver Request Form via the SWIM
application.
In 2014, FNS submitted a change justification for the SNAP
Recipient Trafficking Data Survey, which added 26.5 hours to this
burden. This survey is no longer being conducted, and the associated
hours are removed from this collection with this notice. The reporting
burden for forms FNS-366A and FNS-366B was merged in 2015 with the
burden for the Food Programs Reporting System (OMB control number 0584-
0594, expiration date September 30, 2019); therefore, reporting hours
associated with these forms are removed from this collection with this
notice. However, recordkeeping requirements for these forms remains in
this OMB Control Number.

Burden Estimates
The burden within this collection consists of reporting and
recordkeeping burden for the State Plan of Operation Updates and APD
Plans or Updates; reporting burden for SNAP Waiver Requests via the
SNAP Workflow Information Management (SWIM) system; and recordkeeping
burden for forms FNS-366A and FNS-366B. The current burden is 2,754
hours. The revised estimated burden for this collection is 1,120.95
hours (1,088.62 reporting hours and 32.33 recordkeeping hours). This
results in a decrease of 1,633 hours, which is a result of removing the
reporting burden for forms FNS-366A and FNS-366B and the SNAP
Trafficking Survey from this collection. The calculation of the burden
for each of these components is described below:
Reporting
Reporting Burden Estimates:
Affected Public: State, Local and Tribal Government Agencies.
Estimated Number of Respondents: 53.
Estimated Number of Responses per Respondent: 8.35.
Estimated Total Annual Responses: 442.3.

Estimated Annual Reporting Burden Hours: 1,088.62.
State Plan of Operation Updates. Fifty-three (53) State agencies
submit 1 response annually for a total of 53 annual responses. The
reporting burden for submission of updates to State Plans of Operation
is 6.58 hours per respondent, resulting in estimated burden hours of
348.99 (53 x 6.5847 = 348.99).
APD Plans or Updates. We estimate that up to 53 State agencies may
submit on an average of four (4) APD, plan, or update submission for a
total of 212 annual responses at an average estimate of 2.5 hours per
respondent. The reporting burden is 530 hours.
SNAP Waiver Request Form. FNS estimates that out of 53 State
agencies 45 State will submit 3.94 of the three identified waivers
annually for a total number of 177 Waivers annually. Completion and
submission of these waivers take approximately 1 hour for a total of
177 burden hours annually.
