FISCAL IMPLICATIONS

House Bill 589 appropriates $249.4 from the general fund and is recurring. Any unexpended or

unencumbered balance remaining at the end of fiscal year 2007 shall revert to the general fund.

If House Bill 589 is enacted the appropriation would be in addition to what is included in the FY
