SUMMARY AS SUBMITTED

BY PROMULGATING AGENCY.

These amendments of R.61-94, WIC Vendors, will incorporate provisions included in the Child Nutrition and WIC Reauthorization Act of 2004 (P.L.108-265) and the final rule published by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) in 2014 that revised the WIC food packages. The final rule also contained WIC vendor provisions and amendments to ensure adequate and appropriate monitoring of the Program's food delivery system. Stylistic changes to the regulation are also included.

A Notice of Drafting for these amendments was published in the State Register on July 22, 2016.
