May State agencies categorically tailor the regulatory monthly maximum amounts of food in the food packages as a means of cost savings for caseload management?
No. Categorical tailoring of food packages can only be approved for nutrition reasons. Although reductions in the regulatory monthly maximum amounts of food made through categorical tailoring may result in a cost savings, reduction of the Federal regulatory quantities for other than nutrition reasons, even to accommodate anticipated or imminent food over-obligations, is not an acceptable caseload management strategy.
