Food Delivery Systems - Delay of Implementation Date - 
Final Rule

  PDF   Text

This final rule, published October 18, 2001, delays the implementation date of the final rule entitled Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants and Children (WIC); Food Delivery Systems, published in the Federal Register on December 29, 2000, 65 FR 83248, from February 27, 2002, until October 1, 2002. The delay of the implementation date until October 1, 2002 is necessary to provide State agencies additional time to implement the rule, to promote more effective and efficient implementation of the new requirements, and because the new implementation date corresponds with the beginning of the Federal fiscal year.
