30-Day Federal Register Notice
Food and Nutrition Service
Title: Summer Food Service Program
Integrity Study.
OMB Control Number: 0584–NEW.
Summary of Collection: The Summer
Food Service Program (SFSP) ensures
that low-income children continue to
receive nutritious meals when school is
not in session and they do not have
access to free or low-cost meals through
the National School Lunch and School
Breakfast Programs. The Improper
Payments Elimination and Recovery Act
of 2010 (Pub. L. 111–204) and the
Improper Payments Elimination and
Recovery Improvement Act of 2012
(Pub. L. 112–248) require Federal
agencies to review programs and
activities every three years to identify
those that may be vulnerable to
significant improper payments. Previous
assessments have shown that the SFSP
is at a low risk for improper payments
but recent efforts to address summer
food insecurity through improving
access to SFSP have increased program
expenditures, which may lead to
increased risk of improper payments.
SFSP also presents unique challenges to
ensuring program integrity and
measuring improper payments. FNS is
conducting the Summer Food Service
Program Integrity Study to obtain
information about the administration
and oversight of the SFSP and to
identify potential barriers to ensuring
the integrity and effective management
of the SFSP.
Need and Use of the Information:
This study will collect data from State
Child Nutrition Agency directors, State
Agency key staff, local SFSP sponsor
directors, sponsor key staff, and SFSP
site supervisors, and business SFSP
sponsor directors, sponsor key staff, and
SFSP site supervisors using web-based
surveys and telephone interviews. FNS
will use the data to describe how State
agencies, sponsors, and sites monitor
the SFSP and ensure program integrity,
to develop resources, training, and
technical assistance, and to shape future
efforts to estimate improper payment
rates in the SFSP.
Description of Respondents: State,
Local, or Tribal Government; and Profit/
Non-Profit Businesses.
Number of Respondents: 617.
