Child and Adult Care Food Program: Overclaim Authority

This rule proposes an amendment to the Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP) regulations which would explicitly authorize the Department and State agencies to assess overclaims against institutions that fail to abide by CACFP recordkeeping requirements. This authority has been successfully challenged in several judicial rulings on the grounds that such authority was not specifically established in program regulations. This rule serves to affirm the Department's authority to assess overclaims for recordkeeping infractions and to clarify any regulatory ambiguities or inconsistencies regarding overclaims authority.
