*********** ANALYSIS ADDENDUM - SUSPENSE FILE ***********
The following information is revised to reflect amendments
adopted by the committee on August 27, 2015
Bill
Summary: AB 1321 would establish the Nutrition Incentive
Matching Grant (NIMG) Program in the Office of Farm to Fork
within the California Department of Food and Agriculture (CDFA)
to encourage the consumption and purchase of fresh fruits, nuts,
and vegetables. It also would create the NIMG account in the
state treasury.
Fiscal
Impact: CDFA indicates that the bill could ultimately result in
annual General Fund costs potentially reaching the low millions
of dollars (special fund), some of which could be offset by
federal funds. However, the department would not be authorized
to operate the program if sufficient funds have not been
appropriated.

Amendments: Clarify that state grants are only to be
administered upon receipt of sufficient federal funds.
