State Operations

The Executive recommends an All Funds appropriation in the amount of
$6,366,000.  The State Operations General Fund appropriation of
$4,967,000 reflects the same level funding from State Fiscal Year
(SFY) 2001-02 and includes the following:

--     a $168,000 net increase in funding reflecting negotiated salary
       adjustments, inflation and other NPS costs associated with the
       agency operations; and

--     a $168,000 net decrease in agency expenditures associated with
       savings achieved by management economies and efficiencies
       including vacancy savings, leases, telephone, travel etc.

The Executive recommends $1,399,000 in Special Revenue Other funding. 
This amount reflects the same funding level from last year and
includes the following:

--     a $14,000 net increase in fringe benefits reflecting changes in
       rates; and

--     a $14,000 net decrease in agency expenditures associated with
       personal service to fund changes in fringe benefit rates.
