that the proposed regulations be amended to offer States the option of forwarding a misfiled application by mail the day it is received or by fax the next day. The commenter also recommended that the final rules provide an exception to the current requirement for mailing an application the day it is requested by phone to allow for when the request is made after the last mail collection of the day. Some commenters believed that the proposed provision did not go far enough in providing flexibility for State agencies, and recommended further simplification to the regulations. One commenter remarked that the proposed regulations at 7 CFR 273.2(c)(2), (c)(3), and (c)(4) appeared to be more prescriptive than required by the Food Stamp Act and Section 835 of PRWORA and should be redrafted in the final rule to allow States the flexibility prescribed by the Act to establish their own procedures in the operation of local offices. Giving the considerable disagreement on the proposed provisions among commenters, and our commitment to retaining provisions in the regulations that meet the goal of PRWORA to provide timely, accurate, and fair service to applicants for, and participants in, the Food Stamp Program, we have decided to withdraw the proposed changes to 7 CFR 273.2(c). We may consider revising these regulations in a future proposed rulemaking. At this time, we are implementing only those changes to the existing regulations at 7 CFR 273.2(c) that are necessitated by PRWORA.
