SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: APHIS Student Outreach
Program.
OMB Control Number: 0579–0362.
Type of Request: Reinstatement of an
information collection.
Abstract: The Animal and Plant
Health Inspection Service’s (APHIS’)
Student Outreach Program is designed
to help students learn about careers in
animal science, veterinary medicine,
plant pathology, and agribusiness. The
program allows participants to live on a
college campus and learn about
agricultural science and agribusiness
from university professors, practicing
veterinarians, and professionals working
for the U.S. Government.
The Student Outreach Program is
designed to enrich students’ lives while
they are still in their formative years.
APHIS’ investment in the Student
Outreach Program not only exposes
students to careers in APHIS, it also
gives APHIS’ employees the opportunity
to meet and invest in APHIS’ future
workforce. Students chosen to
participate in the Student Outreach
Program will gain experience through
hands-on labs, workshops, and field
trips. Students will also participate in
character and team building activities
and diversity workshops. A program
currently in the Student Outreach
Program is AgDiscovery.

To participate in a Student Outreach
Program, students and their parents
must submit essays, letters of
recommendation, and application
packages. These submissions are
reviewed and rated by officials to select
the participants. In addition,
cooperative agreements are used to
facilitate the partnerships between
APHIS and the participating universities
to carry out a program.
We are asking the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) to
approve our use of these information
collection activities for 3 years.
The purpose of this notice is to solicit
comments from the public (as well as
affected agencies) concerning our
information collection. These comments
will help us:
(1) Evaluate whether the collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
Agency, including whether the
information will have practical utility;
(2) Evaluate the accuracy of our
estimate of the burden of the collection
of information, including the validity of
the methodology and assumptions used;
(3) Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and
(4) Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, through use, as
appropriate, of automated, electronic,
mechanical, and other collection
technologies; e.g., permitting electronic
submission of responses.
Estimate of burden: The public
burden for this collection of information
is estimated to average 5.62 hours per
response.
Respondents: Individuals and public
and private universities.
Estimated annual number of
respondents: 1,126.
Estimated annual number of
responses per respondent: 1.
Estimated annual number of
responses: 1,126.
Estimated total annual burden on
respondents: 6,330 hours. (Due to
averaging, the total annual burden hours
may not equal the product of the annual
number of responses multiplied by the
reporting burden per response.)
All responses to this notice will be
summarized and included in the request
for OMB approval. All comments will
also become a matter of public record.
Done in Washington, DC, this 1st day of
March 2021.

Acting Administrator, Animal and Plant
Health Inspection Service.

Special Supplemental Nutrition
Program for Women, Infants, and
Children (WIC): 2021/2022 Income
Eligibility Guidelines
Food and Nutrition Service
(FNS), USDA.
ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:
The U.S. Department of
Agriculture (‘‘Department’’) announces
adjusted income eligibility guidelines to
be used by State agencies in
determining the income eligibility of
persons applying to participate in the
Special Supplemental Nutrition
Program for Women, Infants, and
Children (WIC). These income eligibility
guidelines are to be used in conjunction
with the WIC Regulations.
DATES: Applicable date July 1, 2021.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Sara
Olson, Chief, Policy Branch,
Supplemental Food Programs Division,
FNS, USDA, 1320 Braddock Place,
Alexandria, Virginia 22314, (703) 605–
4013.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
SUMMARY:
Executive Order 12866
This notice is exempt from review by
the Office of Management and Budget
under Executive Order 12866.
Regulatory Flexibility Act
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 this Act.
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
This notice does not contain reporting
or recordkeeping requirements subject
to approval by the Office of
Management and Budget in accordance
with the Paperwork Reduction Act of
1995 (44 U.S.C. 3507).
Executive Order 12372
This program is listed in the Catalog
of Federal Domestic Assistance
Programs under No. 10.557, and is
subject to the provisions of Executive
Order 12372, which requires
intergovernmental consultation with
State and local officials (7 CFR part
3015, subpart V, 48 FR 29100, June 24,
1983, and 49 FR 22675, May 31, 1984).
Description
Section 17(d)(2)(A) of the Child
Nutrition Act of 1966, as amended (42
U.S.C. 1786(d)(2)(A)), requires the
Secretary of Agriculture to establish
income criteria to be used with
E:\FR\FM\05MRN1.SGM
05MRN1
12904
Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 42 / Friday, March 5, 2021 / Notices
nutritional risk criteria in determining a
person’s eligibility for participation in
the WIC Program. The law provides that
persons will be income-eligible for the
WIC Program if they are members of
families that satisfy the income standard
prescribed for reduced-price school
meals under section 9(b) of the Richard
B. Russell National School Lunch Act
(42 U.S.C. 1758(b)). Under section 9(b),
the income limit for reduced-price
school meals is 185 percent of the
Federal poverty guidelines, as adjusted.
Section 9(b) also requires that these
guidelines be revised annually to reflect
changes in the Consumer Price Index.
The annual revision for 2021 was
published by the Department of Health
and Human Services (HHS) at 86 FR
7732, February 1, 2021. The guidelines
published by HHS are referred to as the
‘‘poverty guidelines.’’
Program Regulations at 7 CFR
246.7(d)(1) specify that State agencies
may prescribe income guidelines either
equaling the income guidelines
established under Section 9 of the
Richard B. Russell National School
Lunch Act for reduced-price school
meals, or identical to State or local
guidelines for free or reduced-price
health care. However, in conforming
WIC income guidelines to State or local
health care guidelines, the State cannot
establish WIC guidelines which exceed
the guidelines for reduced-price school
meals, or which are less than 100
percent of the Federal poverty
guidelines. Consistent with the method
used to compute income eligibility
guidelines for reduced-price meals
under the National School Lunch
Program, the poverty guidelines were
multiplied by 1.85 and the results
rounded upward to the next whole
dollar.
At this time, the Department is
publishing the maximum and minimum
WIC income eligibility guidelines by
household size for the period of July 1,
2021 through June 30, 2022. Consistent
with section 17(f)(17) of the Child
Nutrition Act of 1966, as amended (42
U.S.C. 1786(f)(17)), a State agency may
implement the revised WIC income
eligibility guidelines concurrently with
the implementation of income eligibility
guidelines under the Medicaid Program
established under Title XIX of the Social
Security Act (42 U.S.C. 1396, et seq.).
State agencies may coordinate
implementation with the revised
Medicaid guidelines, i.e., earlier in the
year, but in no case may
implementation take place later than
July 1, 2021. State agencies that do not
coordinate implementation with the
revised Medicaid guidelines must
implement the WIC income eligibility
guidelines on or before July 1, 2021.

The table of this Notice contains the
income limits by household size for the
48 contiguous States, the District of
Columbia, and all United States
Territories, including Guam. Separate
tables for Alaska and Hawaii have been
included for the convenience of the
State agencies because the poverty
guidelines for Alaska and Hawaii are
higher than for the 48 contiguous States.

DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE
Food and Nutrition Service
Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and
Children (WIC): 2021/2022 Income Eligibility Guidelines
AGENCY: Food and Nutrition Service (FNS), USDA.
ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The U.S. Department of Agriculture (``Department'') announces
adjusted income eligibility guidelines to be used by State agencies in
determining the income eligibility of persons applying to participate
in the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and
Children (WIC). These income eligibility guidelines are to be used in
conjunction with the WIC Regulations.
DATES: Applicable date July 1, 2021.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Sara Olson, Chief, Policy Branch,
Supplemental Food Programs Division, FNS, USDA, 1320 Braddock Place,
Alexandria, Virginia 22314, (703) 605-4013.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Executive Order 12866
This notice is exempt from review by the Office of Management and
Budget under Executive Order 12866.
Regulatory Flexibility Act
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 this
Act.
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
This notice does not contain reporting or recordkeeping
requirements subject to approval by the Office of Management and Budget
in accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C.
3507).
Executive Order 12372
This program is listed in the Catalog of Federal Domestic
Assistance Programs under No. 10.557, and is subject to the provisions
of Executive Order 12372, which requires intergovernmental consultation
with State and local officials (7 CFR part 3015, subpart V, 48 FR
29100, June 24, 1983, and 49 FR 22675, May 31, 1984).
Description
Section 17(d)(2)(A) of the Child Nutrition Act of 1966, as amended
(42 U.S.C. 1786(d)(2)(A)), requires the Secretary of Agriculture to
establish income criteria to be used with
[[Page 12904]]
nutritional risk criteria in determining a person's eligibility for
participation in the WIC Program. The law provides that persons will be
income-eligible for the WIC Program if they are members of families
that satisfy the income standard prescribed for reduced-price school
meals under section 9(b) of the Richard B. Russell National School
Lunch Act (42 U.S.C. 1758(b)). Under section 9(b), the income limit for
reduced-price school meals is 185 percent of the Federal poverty
guidelines, as adjusted. Section 9(b) also requires that these
guidelines be revised annually to reflect changes in the Consumer Price
Index. The annual revision for 2021 was published by the Department of
Health and Human Services (HHS) at 86 FR 7732, February 1, 2021. The
guidelines published by HHS are referred to as the ``poverty
guidelines.''
Program Regulations at 7 CFR 246.7(d)(1) specify that State
agencies may prescribe income guidelines either equaling the income
guidelines established under Section 9 of the Richard B. Russell
National School Lunch Act for reduced-price school meals, or identical
to State or local guidelines for free or reduced-price health care.
However, in conforming WIC income guidelines to State or local health
care guidelines, the State cannot establish WIC guidelines which exceed
the guidelines for reduced-price school meals, or which are less than
100 percent of the Federal poverty guidelines. Consistent with the
method used to compute income eligibility guidelines for reduced-price
meals under the National School Lunch Program, the poverty guidelines
were multiplied by 1.85 and the results rounded upward to the next
whole dollar.
At this time, the Department is publishing the maximum and minimum
WIC income eligibility guidelines by household size for the period of
July 1, 2021 through June 30, 2022. Consistent with section 17(f)(17)
of the Child Nutrition Act of 1966, as amended (42 U.S.C. 1786(f)(17)),
a State agency may implement the revised WIC income eligibility
guidelines concurrently with the implementation of income eligibility
guidelines under the Medicaid Program established under Title XIX of
the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C. 1396, et seq.). State agencies may
coordinate implementation with the revised Medicaid guidelines, i.e.,
earlier in the year, but in no case may implementation take place later
than July 1, 2021. State agencies that do not coordinate implementation
with the revised Medicaid guidelines must implement the WIC income
eligibility guidelines on or before July 1, 2021.

The table of this Notice contains the income limits by household
size for the 48 contiguous States, the District of Columbia, and all

because the poverty guidelines for Alaska and Hawaii are higher than
for the 48 contiguous States.
