(Sec. 2) Revises CACFP eligibility criteria for participating organizations to require that they have not been determined ineligible for participation in any other Federal program as a result of program requirement violations. Requires sponsoring organizations to: (1) employ an appropriate number of monitoring personnel to ensure effective oversight of the operations; and (2) have in effect a policy that restricts other employment by employees interfering with CACFP responsibilities. Requires private institutions that apply for initial participation in CACFP to be bonded, if required by State law.

(Sec. 3) Revises provisions for CACFP institutional approval and applications. Requires the State agency to determine that the sponsoring organization is administratively capable of operating the program described in its application, and would fulfill an identified need under CACFP.

Allows State agencies to withhold reimbursements temporarily without a hearing for up to 90 days under specified conditions.

(Sec. 6) Prohibits sponsoring organizations from reserving for administrative expenses any more than 15 percent of the CACFP payment; but allows States to waive such limitation if the organization provides justification for exceeding such amount.
