Despite other limits on disposing of surplus commodities acquired through price-support operations, the Commodity Credit Corporation may, on terms and under regulations the Secretary of Agriculture considers in the public interest, and after an application, donate those food commodities to Federal penal and correctional institutions and to State correctional institutions for minors. It may not donate to an institution where inmates receive food service on a fee, contract, or concession basis.
