Federal Legislation. As described in further detail below, the United States intends to offer, and the Parties intend to support, Federal legislation that authorizes the United States to determine whether the potential benefits of Facility removal outweigh the potential costs, risks, liabilities or other adverse consequences of removing the Facilities as described in Section III above. The Parties further intend that the same legislation will authorize transfer of the Facilities to a non-Federal DRE in a manner consistent with this Agreement in Principle and the Final Agreement, and that the non- Federal DRE will be empowered to secure the necessary permits and authorizations to promptly remove the Facilities.

Federal Legislation. In 2004, the Child Nutrition and WIC Reauthorization Act (CNR) was created in response to growing concerns about school nutrition policies, practices, and environments, and ultimately to combat the nation’s growing childhood nutrition and obesity crises.12 Though the USDA’s Food and Nutrition Service was created to ensure that items sold through the NSLP and the SBP were nutritious and of high-quality, a critical issue was the lack of regulation of non-reimbursable competitive foods sold outside of federal school meal programs (i.e., a la carte, in fundraisers, snack bars, vending machines, etc.), which were not regulated by federal laws.12 In order to provide regulations to competitive foods, the CNR was created, and beginning on the first day of school in 2006, Section 204: Local School Wellness Policy of the CNR required that any school receiving federal funding for school meal programs such as the NSLP or SBP was obligated to formulate a wellness policy regarding the sale of these foods.22 The CNR sought to improve nutritional standards in schools by promoting nutrition education, imposing strict regulations on every food or beverage sold at school, and requiring a wellness committee to be formed to develop and implement school wellness policies.12 This past year (2016), new rules were imposed by the USDA that required schools participating in school meal programs such as the NSLP or SBP to create minimum requirements for the content of wellness policies, to include key stakeholders in the wellness policy development process, and to regularly evaluate compliance with school wellness policies.29 The goal of these rules was to improve school nutrition environments and increase accountability for schools to develop and implement their wellness policies.29
