Type of Request: Extension and

Abstract: The Child Nutrition (CN)
Labeling Program is a voluntary
technical assistance service that helps
schools and institutions participating in
the National School Lunch Program
(NSLP), School Breakfast Program
(SBP), Child and Adult Care Food
Program (CACFP), and Summer Food
Service Program (SFSP) determine a
product’s contribution toward the foodbased meal pattern requirements. (See
appendix C to 7 CFR parts 210, 220,
225, and 226 for more information on
these programs.) A CN label on a
product assures schools and other Child
Nutrition Program operators that the
product contributes to the meal pattern
requirements as printed on the label.
There is no Federal requirement for
commercial products to have a CN label
statement in order to be included in
meals served by schools and
institutions. The label review program
transferred from the Food and Nutrition
Service to AMS in 2010.

To participate in the CN Labeling

reviews the product formulation to

the product makes towards the foodbased meal pattern requirements. The
application form submitted to AMS is
the same form that a manufacturer
submits to the USDA’s Food Safety and
Inspection Service (FSIS) Labeling and
Program Delivery Division for review of
meat and poultry labels. Participation in
the CN Labeling Program is voluntary;
manufacturers who wish to place a CN
label on their products must comply
with CN Labeling Program
requirements.
Estimate of Burden: Public reporting
burden for this collection of information
is estimated to average 15 minutes per
response.
Respondents: Manufacturers who
produce food for the school foodservice.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
203.
Estimated Total Annual Responses:
812.
Estimated Number of Responses per
Respondent: 4.
Estimated Total Annual Burden on
Respondents: 203 hours.
