Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

    The Department of Agriculture has submitted the following 
information collection requirement(s) to OMB for review and clearance 
under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, Public Law 104-13. Comments 
are requested regarding; 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; the 
accuracy of the agency's estimate of burden including the validity of 
the methodology and assumptions used; ways to enhance the quality, 
utility and clarity of the information to be collected; and ways to 
minimize the burden of the collection of information on those who are 
to respond, including through the use of appropriate automated, 
electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or 
other forms of information technology.
    Comments regarding this information collection received by February 
29, 2024 will be considered. Written comments and recommendations for 
the proposed information collection should be submitted within 30 days 
of the publication of this notice on the following website 
<a href="http://www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain">www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain</a>. Find this particular information 
collection by selecting ``Currently under 30-day Review--Open for 
Public Comments'' or by using the search function. An agency may not 
conduct or sponsor a collection of information unless the collection of 
information displays a currently valid OMB control number and the 
agency informs potential persons who are to respond to the collection 
of information that such persons are not required to respond to the 
collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB 
control number.

Food and Nutrition Service

    Title: Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program--Store 
Applications.
    OMB Control Number: 0584-0008.
    Summary of Collection: Section 9(a) of the Food and Nutrition Act 
of 2008 as amended, (7 U.S.C. 2018 et seq.) requires that the Food and 
Nutrition Service (FNS) provide for the submission of applications for 
approval by retailers, wholesalers, meal service providers, certain 
types of group homes, shelters, and state-contracted restaurants that 
wish to participate in the Supplemental Nutrition Program (SNAP). FNS 
is responsible for reviewing the application in order to determine 
whether or not applicants meet eligibility requirements, and make 
determinations whether to grant or deny authorization to accept and 
redeem SNAP benefits. FNS will collect information using forms FNS-252, 
Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program Application for Store, FNS-
252-E, On line Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program Application 
for Store, FNS 252-2, Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program for 
Meal Service Application, FNS-252-C, Corporate Supplemental 
Application, and FNS 252-R which includes an Online Recertification 
Application (ORA) version known as FNS 252-R-ORA, Supplemental 
Nutrition Assistance Program for Stores Reauthorization and FNS-252FE, 
Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program Farmer's Market Application.
    Need and Use of the Information: FNS will collect information to 
determine the eligibility of retail food stores, wholesale food 
concern, and food service organizations applying for authorization to 
accept and redeem SNAP benefits and to monitor these firms for 
continued eligibility, and to sanction stores for noncompliance with 
the Act, and for Program management. Disclosure of information other 
than Employer Identification Numbers and Social Security Numbers may be 
made to Federal and State law enforcement or investigative agencies or 
instrumentalities administering or enforcing specified Federal or State 
laws, or regulations issued under those laws. Without the information 
on the application or reauthorization application, the consequence to 
the Federal program is the Agency's reduced ability to effectively 
monitor accountability for program compliance and to detect fraud and 
abuse would be severely jeopardized.
    Description of Respondents: Business for-and-not-for-profit, Farms; 
Federal Military Commissaries.
    Number of Respondents: 55,708.
    Frequency of Responses: Reporting: On occasion.
    Total Burden Hours: 49,300.

Departmental Information Collection Clearance Officer.
