{"abstract":"The Food and Nutrition Service is amending the regulations for the Food Distribution Program on Indian Reservations. The changes are intended to improve program service by allowing households two additional income deductions when proper verification is provided. The first income deduction will be given to households that pay legally required child support for a nonhousehold member. This change conforms to an income deduction allowed under the Food Stamp Program. The second income deduction will be provided to households that pay the premium for their Medicare Part B medical insurance. This deduction was prompted by a resolution passed by the National Association of Food Distribution Programs on Indian Reservations. This rule will also make technical amendments, such as changing outdated terminology, and revising or removing provisions that are obsolete or have changed.","action":"Final rule.","agencies":[{"raw_name":"DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE","name":"Agriculture Department","id":12,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/agriculture-department","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/12","parent_id":null,"slug":"agriculture-department"},{"raw_name":"Food and Nutrition Service","name":"Food and Nutrition Service","id":200,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/food-and-nutrition-service","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/200","parent_id":12,"slug":"food-and-nutrition-service"}],"body_html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/html/2000/08/04/00-19726.html","cfr_references":[{"chapter":null,"citation_url":null,"part":253,"title":7}],"citation":"65 FR 47831","comment_url":null,"comments_close_on":null,"correction_of":null,"corrections":[],"dates":"This rule is effective October 3, 2000.","disposition_notes":null,"docket_ids":[],"dockets":[],"document_number":"00-19726","effective_on":"2000-10-03","end_page":47833,"executive_order_notes":null,"executive_order_number":null,"full_text_xml_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/xml/2000/08/04/00-19726.xml","html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2000/08/04/00-19726/food-distribution-program-on-indian-reservations-income-deductions-and-miscellaneous-provisions","images":{},"images_metadata":{},"json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/documents/00-19726?publication_date=2000-08-04","mods_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/metadata/granule/FR-2000-08-04/00-19726/mods.xml","not_received_for_publication":null,"page_length":3,"page_views":{"count":63,"last_updated":"2026-10-24 14:15:04 -0400"},"pdf_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2000-08-04/pdf/00-19726.pdf","presidential_document_number":null,"proclamation_number":null,"public_inspection_pdf_url":null,"publication_date":"2000-08-04","raw_text_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/text/2000/08/04/00-19726.txt","regulation_id_number_info":{},"regulation_id_numbers":[],"regulations_dot_gov_info":{"checked_regulationsdotgov_at":"2011-11-12T03:02:05Z"},"regulations_dot_gov_url":null,"significant":null,"signing_date":null,"start_page":47831,"subtype":null,"title":"Food Distribution Program on Indian Reservations: Income Deductions and Miscellaneous Provisions","toc_doc":"Indian reservations; income deductions and miscellaneous provisions","toc_subject":"Food distribution programs:","topics":["Administrative practice and procedure","Food assistance programs","Grant programs","Indians","Reporting and recordkeeping requirements","Surplus agricultural commodities"],"type":"Rule","volume":65}
