L. 111-296) regarding equity in school lunch pricing and revenue from nonprogram foods sold in schools. It requires school food authorities (SFAs) participating in the NSLP to provide the same level of financial support for lunches served to students who are not eligible for free or reduced price lunches as is provided for lunches served to students eligible for free lunches, and also that all food sold in a school and purchased with funds from the nonprofit school food service account, other than meals and supplements reimbursed by the Department of Agriculture, must generate revenue at least equal to the cost of such foods. The rule too comments on its ICR until August 16, 2011. This document announces OMB's approval of the ICR under OMB Control Number 0584-0565.
