Increase in the Food Stamp Heating and Nonheating Standard Utility Allowances

[28 Pa.B. 309]

   Regulations at 55 Pa. Code § 501.7(a)(2) establish the amounts for the heating and nonheating standard utility allowances (SUAs) for the Food Stamp Program and provide for the revision of these amounts by publication of a notice in the Pennsylvania Bulletin. Increases in these allowances have been approved by the Food and Consumer Service of the United States Department of Agriculture and are effective October 1, 1997.

   The heating and nonheating SUAs are established in accord with the requirements of 7 CFR 273.9(d)(6)(iii) and (iv). The Department of Public Welfare is increasing the heating SUA from $278 to $289 and the nonheating SUA from $153 to $158.

   The Department of Public Welfare recommends these revisions for codification in 55 Pa. Code § 501.7(a)(2).
