If a CDC is already receiving USDA reimbursements are they eligible to also receive USA reimbursements for food?
No. The rule in this situation is this: Where either of two appropriations may reasonably be construed as available for expenditures not specifically mentioned under either appropriation, the determination of the agency as to which of the two appropriations to use will prevail. Once the election has been made, the continued use of the other appropriation is prohibited, in the absence of any changes in the appropriation.
