SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Title: Information Collection for the Summer Food Service Program 
(SFSP).
    OMB Number: 0584-0280.
    Expiration Date: March 31, 2016.
    Type of Request: Revision of a currently approved collection.
    Abstract: SFSP is authorized under section 13 of the Richard B. 
Russell National School Lunch Act (NSLA) (42 U.S.C. 1761). The SFSP is 
directed toward children in low-income areas when school is not in 
session and is operated locally by approved sponsors. Local sponsors 
may include public or private non-profit school food authorities 
(SFAs), public or private non-profit residential summer camps, units of 
local, municipal, county or State governments, or other private non-
profit organizations that develop a special summer program and provide 
meal service similar to that available to children during the school 
year under the National School Lunch Program (NSLP) and the School 
Breakfast Program (SBP).
    This is a revision of a currently approved collection. It revises 
reporting burden as a result of an increase in participating sponsors. 
Current OMB inventory for this collection includes Reporting and 
Recordkeeping burden and that consists of 175,391 hours. The reporting 
burden was slightly increased from 139,989 to 150,646 and Record 
keeping burden was increased from 35,402 to 43,758. This collection is 
requesting a total increase of 19, 012 burden hours. FNS 418 is no 
longer a part of this collection as it has been listed under a separate 
collection (0584-0594). The average burden per response and the annual 
burden hours for reporting and recordkeeping are explained below and 
summarized in the charts which follow.
    Affected Public: State Agencies, Camps and Other Sites and 
Households.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 106,621.
    Estimated Number of Responses per Respondent: 7.35195.
    Estimated Total Annual Responses: 783,872.
