Description
BILLING CODE 3410–34–P
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

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 2022 was
published by the Department of Health
and Human Services (HHS) at 87 FR
3315, January 12, 2022. 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.
Currently, the Department is
publishing the maximum and minimum
WIC income eligibility guidelines by
household size for the period of July 1,
2022, through June 30, 2023. 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, 2022. State agencies that do not
coordinate implementation with the
revised Medicaid guidelines must

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Purpose and Need
The primary purpose for watershed
planning and preparation of this EIS is
to increase and maintain a reliable
supply of water for local agricultural use
and existing storage needs, increase
water conservation, and improve water
delivery efficiency in the Upper Virgin
Watershed in Kane County, Utah, and
for existing and future water demands
in Washington County, Utah. Watershed
planning is authorized under Public
Law 83–566, the Watershed Protection
and Flood Prevention Act of 1954, as

amended, and Public Law 78–534, the
Flood Control Act of 1944.
This action is needed because
agriculture users in the Upper Virgin
Watershed routinely experience water
shortages during late summer months
when East Fork Virgin River flows are
depleted. Existing irrigation facilities
have limited capabilities to divert water
from the river, and there is currently no
capacity for storage during non-use and
high-flow periods. As a result, adequate
water is not available to local users;
therefore, the purpose of the action is to
provide enhanced conservation and
beneficial use of water by increasing
water availability through collection
and storage during non-use periods to
provide adequate flows during the
irrigation season.
Currently, a lack of irrigation water
near the communities of Mt. Carmel,
Orderville, and Glendale has resulted in
a limitation of the amount of alfalfa and
other crops that can be grown. In
particularly dry years, the number of
alfalfa cuttings has been reduced,
resulting in a loss of production. Lands
currently used for agricultural purposes
in Washington County have also
experienced a reduction in crop
production.
Three other objectives are included as
part of the proposed action. The existing
Glendale hydroelectric plant does not
meet the needs of the community, and
the Orderville plant only generates
power during the fall, winter, and early
spring months. The project proposes a
new Glendale facility and would make
water available during the summer
months at the Orderville site that could
help meet energy needs. Secondly, the
project plans to enhance existing
irrigation systems to promote water
conservation. Finally, project
development would offer additional
water-based recreation opportunities in
the area, and water-based recreation
activities are in high demand in Kane
County.

Alternatives

Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and
Children (WIC): 2022/2023 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, 2022.

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 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
2022 was published by the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS)
at 87 FR 3315, January 12, 2022. 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.
Currently, the Department is publishing the maximum and minimum WIC
income eligibility guidelines by household size for the period of July
1, 2022, through June 30, 2023. 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, 2022. State agencies that do not coordinate implementation
with the revised Medicaid guidelines must
[[Page 17978]]
implement the WIC income eligibility guidelines on or before July 1,
2022.
