HAMDT 672 (98th)

An amendment to change the eligibility requirements for private non-profit organizations. The new definition sets the number of sites for such operations at 15 instead of 25 and eliminates the 2,500 student limitation. The amendment also stipulates that they must operate in areas where a school food authority or other government division has not indicated that it will operate such a program. The programs must be ongoing year round, must exercise full control over the operation of the food service. The limitation on 15 sites may be raised to 20 in certain situations.
