accuracy of the agency's estimate of burden including the validity of
the methodology and assumptions used; (3) ways to enhance the quality,

Comments regarding this information collection received by December
18, 2017 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-

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: Summer Meal Study.
OMB Control Number: 0584-NEW.
Summary of Collection: The USDA Summer Food Service Program (SFSP)
and the National School Lunch Program Seamless Summer Option (SSO)
provide healthy meals and snacks to children through 18 years of age,
in low-income areas during summer months when school is not in session.
Legislation requires programs participating in the SFSP or SSO to
participate in program research and evaluation (Section 305 of the
Healthy Hunger Free Kids Act).
Need and Use of the Information: In July 2016, the programs served
3.85 million summer meals to participating children. However, summer
meals reach only a small percent of the children receiving free or
reduced price meals during the school year. This study will help
identify strategies to increase participation in summer meals as well
as assess the nutritional quality of the meals served to children.
