Hiring Flexibility Under Professional
Standards; Correction
Food and Nutrition Service
(FNS), USDA.
ACTION: Final rule; correction.
AGENCY:
This document contains a
correction to the final rule published in
the Federal Register on March 1, 2019,
‘‘Hiring Flexibility Under Professional
Standards.’’
SUMMARY:
This correction is effective April
30, 2019.
DATES:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Food
and Nutrition Service published a final
rule in the Federal Register, 84 FR 6953,
on March 1, 2019, to add four
flexibilities to the hiring standards for
new school nutrition program directors
in small local educational agencies
(LEAs) and new State directors of school
nutrition programs under the
Professional Standards regulations for
the National School Lunch Program and
School Breakfast Program. First, to
address hiring challenges faced by small
LEAs, which are those with 2,499 or
fewer students, this rule requires
relevant food service experience rather
than school nutrition program
experience for new school nutrition
program directors. Second, it provides
State agencies with discretion to
consider documented volunteer or
unpaid work as relevant experience for
new school nutrition program directors
in LEAs with 2,499 or fewer students.
Third, it gives State agencies discretion
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
to accept less than the required years of
food service experience when an
applicant for a new director position in
an LEA with fewer than 500 students
has the minimum required education.
Lastly, this rule adds flexibility to the
hiring standards for State directors of
school nutrition programs by allowing
State agencies to consider applicants
with either a bachelor’s or advanced
degree in specified fields. These
changes are expected to expand the pool
of candidates qualified to serve as
leaders in the school nutrition programs
while continuing to ensure that school
nutrition professionals are able to
perform their duties effectively and
efficiently.
Need for Correction
The table in § 230.30, paragraph
(b)(2), omitted a change to the
standards. This document corrects those
errors.
Therefore, in FR Doc. No. 2019–
03524, appearing on page 6953 in the
issue of March 1, 2019, make the
following correction;
§ 210.30
