63-1414 IMPLEMENTATION OF REPLACEMENT PROVISIONS 63-1414

Counties shall implement the revised provisions for replacements of ATPs and coupons, promulgated by Public Law 95-113 (Food Stamp Act of 1977) as follows:

Beginning the first of the month 60 days after filing these revisions with the Secretary of State, counties shall implement the revised program changes for all households.

The restriction which limits ATP or coupon replacements during any six-month period shall begin on the implementation date and all households will have zero replacements at that point. Regulations shall be implemented from that point on in accordance with the type and number of replacements which are then allowed.

The CWD shall mail or individually provide all currently certified households with a notice explaining the household's reporting responsibilities for replacements. The notice language to be used shall be provided by SDSS. This notice shall be issued as soon as possible. However, it may be delayed in order to be provided with the next allotment.
