vegetables through farmers markets and roadside stands to WIC participants, and to expand awareness and use of, and sales at, farmers markets and roadside stands. Currently, FMNP operates through State health departments in 39
States, 6 Indian Tribal Organizations, District of Columbia, Guam, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands.
Section 17m8 of the Child Nutrition Act of 1966 42 U.S.C.
1786m8, and the WIC Farmers Market Nutrition Program FMNP
regulations at 7 CFR part 248 require that certain program-related information be collected and that full and complete records concerning FMNP operations are maintained. The information reporting and record-keeping burdens are necessary to ensure appropriate and efficient management of the FMNP.
These burden activities are covered by this Information Collection Request ICR which include requirements that involve the authorization and monitoring of State agencies; the certification of FMNP participants; the nutrition education that is provided to participants; farmer and market authorization, monitoring, and management; and financial and participation data using WIC Farmers Market Nutrition Program FMNP
Annual Financial and Program Data Report FNS 683B, which is approved both the form and its associated reporting burden under OMB Control Number: 05840594 Food Programs Reporting System FPRS, Expiration Date: 07/31/2023. Recordkeeping burden associated with this form is not approved under OMB Control Number 05840594. State agencies must maintain records in order to support data reported in FPRS, and the recordkeeping burden for such record maintenance is captured in this ICR, OMB Control Number: 05840447. State plans are the principal source of information about how each State agency operates its FMNP. Information from participants and local agencies is collected through State-developed forms or Management Information Systems.
The information collected is used by the Department of Agriculture/Food and Nutrition Service to manage, plan, evaluate, make decisions and report on FMNP program operations. Along with the State Plans, State agencies also submit the Federal-State Supplemental Nutrition Programs Agreements FNS
339 whose reporting and recordkeeping burden is associated and approved under OMB Control Number: 0584
0332, Expiration Date: 04/30/2022.
This information collection is requesting a revision in the burden hours due to program changes and
