Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request

August 22, 2016.
    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 (1) 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; (2) the 
accuracy of the agency's estimate of burden including the validity of 
the methodology and assumptions used; (3) ways to enhance the quality, 
utility and clarity of the information to be collected; and (4) 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 
September 26, 2016 will be considered. Written comments should be 
addressed to: Desk Officer for Agriculture, Office of Information and 
Regulatory Affairs, Office of Management and Budget (OMB), 
[email protected] or fax (202) 395-5806 and to Departmental 
Clearance Office, USDA, OCIO, Mail Stop 7602, Washington, DC 20250-
7602. Copies of the submission(s) may be obtained by calling (202) 720-
8958.
    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.

    Title: CACFP National Disqualified List--Forms FNS-843 and FNS-844.
    OMB Control Number: 0584-0584.
    Summary of Collection: Section 17 of the National School Lunch Act, 
as amended (42 U.S.C. 1766), authorizes the Child and Adult Care Food 
Program (CACFP). Section 243(c) of Public Law 106-224, the Agricultural 
Risk Protection Act of 2000, amended section 17(d)(5) of the Richard B. 
Russell National School Lunch Act (NSLA) (42 U.S.C. 1766(d)(5)(E)(i) 
and (ii)) by requiring the Department of Agriculture to maintain a list 
of institutions, day care home providers, and individuals that have 
been terminated or otherwise disqualified from CACFP participation. The 
law also requires the Department to make the list available to State 
agencies

[[Page 58470]]

for their use in reviewing applications to participate and to 
sponsoring organizations to ensure that they do not employ as 
principals any persons who are disqualified from the program. This 
statutory mandate has been incorporated into Sec.  226.6(c)(7) of the 
Program regulations.
    Need and Use of the Information: The Food and Nutrition Service 
(FNS) uses forms FNS-843 Report of Disqualification from 
Participation--Institution and Responsible Principals/Individuals and 
FNS-844 Report of Disqualification from Participation--Individually 
Disqualified Responsible Principal/Individual or Day Care Home Provider 
to collect and maintain the disqualification data. The State agencies 
use these forms, which are accessed through a web-based National 
Disqualification List system, to collect the contact information and 
the disqualification information and reasons on all individuals and 
institutions that have been disqualified and are therefore ineligible 
to participate in CACFP. The information is collected from State 
agencies as the disqualifications occur so that the list is kept 
current. By maintaining this list, the Department ensures program 
integrity by making the list available to sponsoring organizations and 
State agencies so that no one who has been disqualified can participate 
in CACFP. Without this data collection, State agencies and sponsoring 
organizations would have no way of knowing if an applicant has been 
disqualified from participating in CACFP in another State.
    Description of Respondents: State, Local, or Tribal Government.
    Number of Respondents: 56.
    Frequency of Responses: Reporting: On occasion; Other (as needed).
    Total Burden Hours: 784.
