Meal Component and Quantities Overview 4 6 -Cent Certified SFAs will complete the 6 -Cent Certification Workbook without Simplified Nutrient Assessment for each selected site http: //fns. dpi. wi. gov/fns_6 centscert Nutrient Analysis will depend upon on-site risk assessment If SFA is NOT 6 -Cent certified please refer to next slide Reviewer will assess whether the school: § § § Offers students the required meal components in the required quantities; Gives students access to select required meal components on all reimbursable meal service lines; Records only meals that contain required components in required quantities for reimbursement.

6 -Cent Certification 5 If SFA has NOT been certified, there are 2 ways to get certified in the 2013 -14 SY. 1. Submit menu certification workbooks to DPI online 2. Be certified on-site as part of the AR For on-site menu certification Completed menu certification workbook without the simplified nutrient assessment Schools serving each menu type/grade grouping will be visually observed and nutrient analysis will be completed by the SA (DPI strongly encourages SFA to be certified prior to AR)

Production Records 6 Current and complete Production Records must be maintained on-site at the school for each meal service each day Must document that all meal components are offered in quantities appropriate for age/grade groups served

Meal Pattern Requirements 7 Specific to age/grade group Specific requirements for milk vegetable subgroups dietary specifications whole grains

Milk Requirements 8 At least two varieties of fluid milk No longer the requirement to offer an unflavored milk Fat-free, flavored or unflavored Low-fat (1%), unflavored For the NSLP and SBP, variety ( at least two choices of milk) can be accomplished by offering different allowable fat levels and milk flavor in fat free milk only.

Vegetable Subgroup Requirements 9 Schools must offer vegetables from five vegetable subgroups over the course of a week: ● ● ● Dark green Red/orange Beans/peas Starchy Other

Whole Grain-Rich Requirements 10 As of July 1, 2013 (SBP) ½ of grains offered over the week must be whole grain-rich in both SBP and NSLP Maximum limits for total grains have been lifted for 13 -14

Meal Preparation Observation 11 Prior to Meal Service ● ● Ensure all reimbursable meal lines offer all required components Observe meal preparation If multiple age/grade groups, examine how requirements are met for each Alert staff to missing components and give opportunity to correct

During Meal Service Observation 12 During Meal Service: ● ● ● Observe meals at point of service on each line at start, middle, end of service Determine if meals contain components & quantities for age/grade group Ensure students have access to, and know how to select, reimbursable meal

Alternate Meal Service Locations 13 Alternate meal service areas observed day of review: classrooms, kiosks, buses, etc. If violations observed, check all other alternate meal sites OVS not required in alternate locations, but > 2 milk varieties are required OVS may be waived for field trips, but menus must still meet daily and weekly component requirements.

Menu Substitutions 14 Must be recorded on Production Record “Like” substitutions strongly encouraged Assess whether daily/weekly requirements are met Meals compliant if requirements met

Meal Components & Quantities FA 15 Fiscal action (FA) is required Missing a Meal Component Repeat violation (from one AR to the next) of: Vegetable Subgroup Milk Type FA may apply for repeat violation of: Quantities Whole-grain Rich Calories, sat fat, sodium, or trans fat

Fiscal Action: Repeat Violation 16 For Meal Components & Quantities a REPEAT VIOLATION includes: o any repeated finding at the SFA level o any findings at a subsequent AR o a repeat violation of any of the same meal component requirements (milk type, vegetable subgroup, whole-grain rich) or quantities.

OVS Overview 19 All components are offered in sufficient quantities Students select adequate components for reimbursable meal Is signage posted that clearly identifies a reimbursable meal? Are staff at the POS educated to recognize a reimbursable meal?

Required Signage 20 Posted at or near the beginning of the serving line Aids students in identifying the reimbursable meal Communicates items that may be selected for the meal Must be posted for breakfast and lunch

During Meal Service Observation 21 Determine: if meals selected by students contain minimum of 3 food components (NSLP) or food items (SBP) if each reimbursable lunch contains at least ½ c. fruit or vegetable if CN staff understand OVS and can accurately judge quantities on the tray if students understand OVS and are aware of all options (signage)

Overview 29 SA will assess whether site is at high or low risk for not meeting Dietary Specifications (assessment will determine if Nutrient Analysis is necessary for certified schools) Dietary Specifications § Calories (weekly average range) § Saturated Fat (weekly maximum) § Sodium (weekly maximum) § Trans Fat (daily restriction) Trans fat not allowed, except minimal amount of naturally occurring

Selecting a Targeted Menu Review Site 34 AR selected review sites are assessed using a checklist The 1 site most likely to not be serving meals that meet the dietary specifications will be assessed using a “dietary specifications” checklist If this checklist determines that the site is high risk, a nutrient analysis will be completed Site must submit: PR, recipes, food labels & spec sheets for both lunch and breakfast. The review week for the nutrient analysis, must contain min. of 3 days and max. of 7 days

Conducting Nutrient Analyses 35 Weighted nutrient analyses completed for: lunch and breakfast for each USDA established age/grade group each distinct menu offered meals offered

On-site Review Procedures 36 Validate Information and Risk Assessment ● Observe Breakfast and Lunch meal preparation and service ● Review food storage areas/product inventory ● Review food safety/HACCP plans and practices ● Evaluate menus, productions records, recipes, purchase invoices, and any other documentation which supports the meals served

PS 2 Violations Identified On-site 37 Severe Noncompliance Performance Standard 2 Violations ● Missing Meal Components ● Missing Vegetable Subgroups ● Inadequate and/or Excessive Quantities ● Minimum Component Requirements Not Met for Grains and/or Meat/Meat Alternates

FA for Dietary Specifications Violations 38 Fiscal action for a repeat violation of Dietary Specifications is limited to the review site where the violation is found Even if the same cycle menu is being served at other sites All violations will require a Corrective Action Plan
