Food and Nutrition Service

    Title: 7 CFR part 235--State Administrative Expense (SAE) Funds.
    OMB Control Number: 0584-0067.
    Summary of Collection: The authority for this collection is 
provided in Sections 7 and 10 of the Child Nutrition Act of 1966, 80 
Stat. 888, 889, as amended (42 U.S.C. 1776, 1779). As required, the 
Food and Nutrition Service (FNS) issued regulations in 7 CFR part 235, 
which prescribes the methods for making payments of funds to State 
agencies to use for administrative expenses incurred in overseeing and 
providing technical assistance in connection with activities undertaken 
under the National School Lunch Program (NSLP), the Special Milk 
Program (SMP), the School Breakfast Program (SBP), the Child and Adult 
Care Food Program (CACFP), and the Food Distribution Program (FDP). 
This information collection is required to administer these Programs in 
accordance with the Act. For this revision, FNS has revised the FNS-525 
form to eliminate data fields which collect data that can be obtained 
from the FNS financial data systems. FNS expects that these revisions 
will reduce the burden hours for this collection.
    Need and Use of the Information: This is a mandatory information 
collection. Under this collection, FNS collects the information 
necessary for making payments of funds to State agencies to use for the 
administrative expenses incurred in overseeing and providing technical 
assistance in connection with the activities undertaken by them under 
the NSLP, SMP, SBP, CACFP, and the FDP. The Federal regulations in 7 
CFR part 235 SAE Funds require the collection of information associated 
with this collection. The respondents for this collection are the State 
educational agencies and the alternate State agencies that have 
agreements with FNS for the administration of the various programs. 
This information is collected through written agreements that cover the 
operation of the Program during a specified period; State 
Administrative Expense plans that outline funding and activities; State 
Administrative Expense Funds Reallocation Reports that describe the use 
of SAE funds and which are used to reallocate SAE funds; and annual 
reports containing information on the number of School Food Authorities 
(SFAs) under agreement with the State agency to participate in the 
National School Lunch or Commodity School Programs. Under this 
collection, the State agencies also maintain current accounting records 
of State administrative expense funds which identify fund 
authorizations, obligations, unobligated balances, assets, liabilities, 
outlays, and income.
    Description of Respondents: State, Local, or Tribal Government.
    Number of Respondents: 83.
    Frequency of Responses: Recordkeeping; Reporting: Annually.
    Total Burden Hours: 6,306.
