While the Department is currently managing for and expecting utilization of fewer than 77,775 slots, any limitation on the number of slots available is a matter to be determined pursuant to general law and not through an appropriation. Therefore, the Governor instructed the Department to comply strictly with the appropriation limit while understanding that the slot limit is not operative. The Governor remains willing to engage in discussion of this issue through the general law legislative process. Section 37 pertaining to the Department of Public Safety, page 124, item 290.101: The General Assembly seeks to earmark $250,000 for the North Central Law Enforcement Academy within the Field Offices and Services program. This appropriation seeks to increase the $271,952 annual contract currently between the Georgia Public Safety Training Center and the Cobb County Commission by 92%. Other contracts for regional law enforcement academies are for the same amount, and a 92% increase for the North Georgia Law Enforcement Academy would create significant inequities with the other regional law enforcement academies. Increases for law enforcement academies should be managed on a fair and equitable basis for all academies. Therefore, this appropriation is vetoed. HB 990 FOR FY 2009 Section 21, pertaining to the Department of Economic Development, page 73, line 2499: The General Assembly appropriated $125,000 in state general funds to the Tourism program for the development of a five year business plan for the Georgia Tourism Foundation. The initial state investment of $1.2 million in the Foundation was intended to generate significant private investment in tourism development. The sustainability of the foundation is dependent on the success of this public-private partnership. The Tourism Foundation has been charged to raise funds from outside sources for their five year business plan. Therefore, the appropriation of $125,000 contained in this proviso is vetoed. Section 21, pertaining to the Department of Economic Development, page 73, line 2500: The General Assembly earmarked $150,000 in state general funds to the Tourism program for the restoration of Augusta's historic Powder Works chimney. State support for this project is not justified. Therefore, the appropriation of $150,000 contained in this proviso is vetoed. Section 21, pertaining to the Department of Economic Development, page 73, line 2502: The General Assembly appropriated $3,000,000 in state general funds to the Tourism program for the National Infantry Museum. The state has fulfilled its commitment to the National Infantry Museum with the $5,000,000 appropriation in the fiscal year 2008 budget. Therefore, the appropriation of $3,000,000 contained in this proviso is vetoed. Section 21, pertaining to the Department of Economic Development, page 73, line 2503: The General Assembly appropriated $250,000 in state general funds to the Tourism program for the Georgia International and Maritime Trade Center Authority to perform an economic impact and environmental improvement study. The State of Georgia issued a total of $17.7 million in bonds for the Trade Center in 1994 and 1995 and still has outstanding debt service of nearly $6 million. The local community has reaped significant economic benefit from the state's investment and should shoulder the financial investment involved in the feasibility study. Therefore, the appropriation of $250,000 contained in this proviso is vetoed. Section 23, pertaining to the Department of Education, page 87, line 2954: The General Assembly appropriated $900,000 in state general funds to the Technology/Career Education program in order to provide funds for a Classroom Technology initiative. Classroom technology is important as evidenced by my FY 2009 budget recommendation of $17,696,972 in state funds and $52,975,212 in total funds for the Technology/Career Education program as a whole. While classroom technology is important, the failure to fund such a classroom technology initiative comprehensively or demonstrate the need for such funding on a limited basis is a fatal flaw. Therefore, the appropriation of $900,000 contained in this proviso is vetoed. Section 26, pertaining to the Department of Human Resources, page 125, line 4245: The General Assembly appropriated $31,007 in state general funds for the Brain and Spinal Injury Trust Fund program to provide for increased operating expenses. The trust fund operates efficiently from annual DUI fines. State general fund support for this program is not justified. Therefore, this appropriation is vetoed. Section 29, pertaining to the Department of Juvenile Justice, page 141, line 4788: The General Assembly earmarked $600,000 in the Children and Youth Coordinating Council for "Connecting Henry, Inc." to provide for a multi-jurisdictional collaborative to address the high drop out rate in the 8 VETOES BY THE GOVERNOR community. I am supportive of the goals of this collaborative and encourage them to work creatively with the local school system and our graduation and community coaches towards the goal of lowering the drop out rate in Henry County. Given the myriad of other initiatives in this state directed towards this laudable goal and the equivalent need in other communities for similar services, I cannot justify an earmark of state funds for this particular collaborative. Nonetheless, funding is also available on a competitive basis through the Governor's Office for Children and Families for these types of activities. Therefore, the appropriation of $600,000 contained in this proviso is vetoed. Section 37, pertaining to the Department of Public Safety, page 164, line 5581: The General Assembly appropriated $250,000 in state general funds to the Field Offices and Services program for the purchase of equipment for the Columbia County State Patrol Post. This is a new location for the State Patrol Post currently in Thomson, McDuffie County. Equipment and other associated expenses will be transferred from the Thomson location. This appropriation was given higher priority by the General Assembly than funding for the 87th trooper school which would have resulted in at least 50 additional troopers in FY 2009. Sufficient funding exists within the Department of Public Safety to cover any additional costs incurred as a result of the transfer. Therefore, the appropriation of $250,000 contained in this proviso is vetoed. Section 37, pertaining to the Department of Public Safety, page 167, line 5705: The General Assembly appropriated $250,000 in state general funds to the Public Safety Training Center to fund expenses for the North Central Georgia Law Enforcement Academy. This appropriation seeks to almost double the $271,952 annual contract currently between the Georgia Public Safety Training Center and the Cobb County Commission. This increase would create significant inequities with the other regional law enforcement academies. As stated in the veto message for this item in House Bill 989, increases for law enforcement academies should be managed on a fair and equitable basis for all academies. Therefore, the appropriation of $250,000 contained in this proviso is vetoed. Section 39, pertaining to the Board of Regents, page 175, line 5998: The General Assembly appropriated $360,000 in state general funds to the Public Service/Special Funding Initiatives program for the Georgia Water Planning and Policy Center at Albany State University and Georgia Southern University. $11,100,000 will be available for water planning and projection modeling as a part of the implementation of the statewide water plan. The university system is expected to be an active participant in these planning activities. Directed and earmarked state funding for this program is not justified. Therefore, the appropriation of $360,000 contained in this proviso is vetoed. Section 39, pertaining to the Board of Regents, page 178, line 6087: The General Assembly appropriated $200,000 in state general funds to the Teaching program for the planning and implementation of a program at Kennesaw State University for disadvantaged youth. This program was not identified by the Board of Regents or Kennesaw State University as a priority for the Teaching program in FY 2009. I support the use of state facilities and staff at Kennesaw State University to plan and implement this program in conjunction with local community support; however, due to the unspecified need associated with this project and other priorities within the Teaching program, the appropriation of $200,000 contained in this proviso is vetoed. Section 45, pertaining to the Department of Technical and Adult Education, page 201, line 6893: The General Assembly appropriated $25,000 to the Economic Development (QuickStart) program for Base Closure and Realignment (BRAC) job retraining program for Atlanta Technical College. The Department has indicated it has sufficient funding to undertake this activity without an additional appropriation. Therefore, the appropriation of $25,000 contained in this proviso is vetoed. Section 45, pertaining to the Department of Technical and Adult Education, page 202, line 6914: The General Assembly appropriated $250,000 in state general funds to the Technical Education program for the creation of a college and technical facility in Catoosa County at Bentley Place. This facility is not on the Department's priority list for expansion. Due to the unspecified need associated with this project and other priorities within the Technical Education program, the appropriation of $250,000 contained in this proviso is vetoed. Section 46, pertaining to the Department of Transportation, page 204, line 6982: The General Assembly earmarked $5,200,000 in state general funds to the Airport Aid program for the Paulding County Regional Airport ($4,000,000), Cherokee County Airport Authority ($700,000), and the Glynn County Airport Commission ($500,000). State funding for airports is currently determined in accordance with statewide priorities for air transport and is awarded on a competitive basis. Local communities are encouraged to seek funding from Airport Aid at the Department of Transportation ($23 million available in FY 2009) and the AirGeorgia program at the OneGeorgia Authority ($15 million available in FY09). Therefore, the appropriation of $5,200,000 contained in this proviso is vetoed. Section 49, pertaining to the General Obligation Debt Sinking Fund, pages 213-214, line 7303: This language authorizes the appropriation of $683,200 in debt service to finance educational facilities for county and independent school systems through the State Board of Education specifically for the design and construction of a charter school to be operated by the Cobb County School System through the issuance of $8,000,000 in 20-year bonds. Historically, funding for a start-up charter school is not included in general obligation debt, and its inclusion here sets a costly precedent. Funding is available for operating and facility grants on a competitive basis for start-up charter schools through the Department of Education. Therefore, due to limitations on additional debt contained in the state's debt management plan and the 9 VETOES BY THE GOVERNOR reasons stated above, the language (page 213, line 7303) in the provisions relative to Section 49 General Obligation Debt Sinking Fund and the state general funds of $683,200 is vetoed. Section 49, pertaining to the General Obligation Debt Sinking Fund, page 214, line 7305: This language authorizes the appropriation of $1,155,000 in debt service to finance educational facilities for county and independent school systems through the State Board of Education specifically for career and vocational equipment per House Bill 905 through the issuance of $5,000,000 in 5-year bonds. Due to the failure of the passage of House Bill 905, the availability of other funds for equipment purchases, and due to the limitations on additional debt contained in the state's debt management plan, the language (page 214, line 7305) in the provisions relative to Section 49, General Obligation Debt Sinking Fund and the state general funds of $1,155,000 is vetoed. Section 49, pertaining to the General Obligation Debt Sinking Fund, page 224, line 7405: This language authorizes the appropriation of $657,580 in debt service to finance projects and facilities for the Department of Transportation, specifically for rail lines for Lyerly to Coosa, Nunez to Vidalia, Ardmore to Sylvania, St. Augustine Road Rail Switching Yard Expansion and McNatt Boulevard Extension rail crossing through the issuance of $7,700,000 in 20-year bonds. Financing for these rail projects should not be considered until processes for project selection have been reviewed and adequate justification is made for continued state investment. Due to limitations on additional debt contained in the state's debt management plan and the reasons stated above, the language (page 224, line 7405) in the provisions relative to Section 49 General Obligation Debt Sinking Fund and the state general funds of $657,580 is vetoed. Section 49, pertaining to the General Obligation Debt Sinking Fund, page 224, line 7406: This language authorizes the appropriation of $170,800 in debt service to finance projects and facilities for the Department of Transportation, specifically for the construction of a welcome center for Tallulah Falls on the Rabun County side through the issuance of $2,000,000 in 20-year bonds. In consideration of other priority items as expressed by the General Assembly and limitations on additional debt contained in the state's debt management plan, the language (page 224, line 7406) in the provisions relative to Section 49 General Obligation Debt Sinking Fund and the state general funds of $170,800 is vetoed. NON-BINDING INFORMATION LANGUAGE TO DISREGARD Certain language contained in this appropriation bill is included for informational purposes and thus does not constitute an appropriation. Because the language is not an appropriation, it is non-binding, and the Governor may authorize the agencies to utilize those funds in accordance with the overall purpose of the appropriation and within the general law authority of the agency. Passages of non-binding information language to disregard is included below: Section 16, pertaining to the Department of Community Health, page 49, line 1718: The General Assembly seeks to earmark $1,000,000 in state general funds in the Health Care Access and Improvement program for the Georgia Association of Primary Health Care by instructing the department to enter into a contract with the association. Additional language instructs the department to pay the contractor in three allotments, upon the performance of certain tasks and to direct funding to Centers in Montgomery County, Jones County, Clarke County and Effingham County. Pursuant to the general law powers of the department, the department is authorized to utilize appropriate procurement and vendor management procedures to ensure that program services intended by the General Assembly are provided in a fair, equitable, efficient and effective manner. The named contractor in this earmark is not prohibited from participating in the department's procurement process. Section 16, pertaining to the Department of Community Health, page 49, line 1719: The General Assembly seeks to earmark $1,000,000 in state general funds in the Health Care Access and Improvement program for the Georgia Association of Primary Health Care by instructing the department to enter into a contract with the association. Additional language instructs the department to pay the contractor in three allotments, upon the performance of certain tasks and to direct funding to four named centers. Pursuant to the general law powers of the department, the department is authorized to utilize appropriate procurement and vendor management procedures to ensure that program services intended by the General Assembly are provided in a fair, equitable, efficient and effective manner. The named contractor in this earmark is not prohibited from participating in the department's procurement process. Section 16, pertaining to the Department of Community Health, page 51, line 1777: The General Assembly seeks to instruct the department to provide a rate increase for Psychological Residential Treatment Facilities (PRTFs) within the Low-Income Medicaid program by increasing the cap on the per diem rate to be consistent with other states and sufficient to reimburse all covered behavioral health. As the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) must approve a rate increase before federal matching funds may be received, the department is authorized to pursue CMS authorization of a rate update based on the 2006 cost report and according to CMS payment guidelines. Section 16, pertaining to the Department of Community Health, page 53, line 1825: The General Assembly seeks to instruct the department to adjust pharmacy benefit manager reimbursement rates to independent pharmacies to Average Wholesale Price 13% + $3.41 per script dispensing fee in the State Health Benefit Plan program. This language circumvents the department's effort to negotiate competitive rates in accordance with benefit plan management practices. The 10 VETOES BY THE GOVERNOR department is authorized to maintain reimbursement rates in accordance with the purpose of the program and the Department's general law powers. Section 22, pertaining to the Department of Education, page 80, line 2722: The General Assembly provided $384,375 in state general funds for the Georgia Virtual Academy in the Foreign Language program. This funding would be limited to 1,250 elementary students enrolled at the Georgia Virtual Academy. The Department is authorized to utilize this funding to provide foreign language media materials to all elementary schools in accordance with the purpose of the program and the general law powers of the Department. Section 26, pertaining to the Department of Human Resources, page 122, line 4144: The General Assembly seeks to instruct the department to provide a rate increase for Psychological Residential Treatment Facilities, (PRTF's) by increasing the cap on the per diem rate. The Department is authorized to adjust the cap on the per diem rate based on the 2006 cost report in accordance with its general law powers and not to exceed budgeted state funds. 11 FINANCIAL SUMMARIES Estimated State Revenues Appropriations and Reserves Fund Sources and Uses State Funds Sources: Reserves Mid-Year Adjustment Reserve Revenues FY 2008 Revenue Estimate FY 2009 Revenue Estimate Lottery for Education Tobacco Settlement Funds Payments from Georgia Correctional Industries Brain and Spinal Injury Trust Fund Total Revenues TOTAL: STATE FUNDS SOURCES State Funds Uses: State Appropriations Veto Surplus TOTAL: STATE FUNDS USES Amended FY 2008 $188,404,416 $19,364,673,892 841,554,506 148,344,341 1,968,993 $20,356,541,732 $20,544,946,148 $20,545,196,148 (250,000) $20,544,946,148 FY 2009 $20,117,588,439 882,255,743 159,069,341 5,000,000 1,968,993 $21,165,882,516 $21,165,882,516 $21,180,140,103 (14,257,587) $21,165,882,516 The following adjustment was made to the Amended FY 2008 Revenue Estimate: a).

The revenue numbers for Fiscal Years 2008 and 2009 are estimated. In prior years, the Mid-Year Adjustment Reserve is reflected as a portion of actual collections of taxes and fees. 15 Revenue Shortfall Reserve The 1976 session of the General Assembly created the Revenue Shortfall Reserve in lieu of the Working Reserve. This reserve acts as a savings account or "rainy day" fund for the state should revenue collections decline unexpectedly or uncontrollably. Current law provides that the reserve cannot exceed 10% of the previous year's net revenue. For each fiscal year, the General Assembly may appropriate an amount equal to 1% of the net revenue collections of the preceding fiscal year for funding increased K12 needs. In addition, the Governor has the authority to release funds from the reserve in excess of 4% of the net revenue of the preceding fiscal year. The chart for FY 2007 includes agency surplus collected after June 30, 2007 and does not include funds used for mid-year K-12 adjustment.

should collections fall short of annual appropriations. The Shortfall Reserve Subaccount was included in the original law and required that an amount be set aside each year equal to 10% of the prior year's total lottery proceeds deposited into the Lottery for Education Account. If net funds in the account are not sufficient to meet appropriations, funds shall be drawn from the reserve to make up the shortage. Funds have been set aside for the Shortfall Reserve (10% reserve) each year and totaled $82,279,660 on June 30, 2007. The lottery law was amended during the 1994 legislative session to require that a second reserve account within the Lottery for Education Account be established called the Scholarship Shortfall Reserve Subaccount. The scholarship reserve law requires a reserve equal to 50% of the amount of scholarship proceeds disbursed during the preceding year be maintained. The subaccount balance on June 30, 2007 totaled $227,245,246. The two lottery reserves as of June 30, 2006 total as follows: Shortfall Reserve Subaccount Scholarship Shortfall Reserve Subaccount TOTAL LOTTERY RESERVES $82,279,660 227,245,246 $309,524,906 29 Tobacco Settlement Funds Summary Use of Tobacco Funds Current Budget Agency FY 2008 Amended FY 2008 FY 2009 RURAL ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT OneGeorgia Authority HEALTHCARE Direct Healthcare Medicaid (including expansion for pregnant women and infants) Critical Access Hospital Reimbursement Rural Primary Care Access Initiative Medicaid Inpatient Hospital Reimbursement Community Care Services Program Home and Community Based Services for the Elderly Mental Retardation Waiver Programs Suicide Prevention Subtotal: Cancer Treatment and Prevention Breast and Cervical Cancer Treatment Regional Programs of Excellence (Funded in the Cancer Coalition Initiatives in FY 2009) Smoking Prevention and Cessation Cancer Screening Cancer Treatment for Low-Income Uninsured Cancer Registry Eminent Cancer Scientists and Clinicians Eminent Cancer Scholar Endowment MCG: Cancer Center Mission Enhancement Coalition Staff Cancer Coalition Initiatives Enforcement/Compliance for Underage Smoking Subtotal: Total - Healthcare TOTAL: TOBACCO SETTLEMENT FUNDS SUMMARY BY AGENCY Department of Community Affairs (OneGeorgia Authority) Department of Community Health Department of Human Resources Board of Regents Department of Revenue Total DCA $47,123,333 DCH DCH DCH DCH DHR DHR DHR DHR $13,999,451 3,500,000 1,350,000 30,000,000 2,383,220 3,808,586 10,255,138 150,000 $65,446,395 DCH DCH $3,474,205 1,500,000 DHR DHR DHR DHR Regents Regents Regents Regents Regents DOR 2,281,670 2,915,302 5,000,000 115,637 8,050,000 750,000 5,000,000 1,454,466 5,083,333 150,000 $35,774,613 $101,221,008 $148,344,341 $47,123,333 53,823,656 26,909,553 20,337,799 150,000 $148,344,341 $47,123,333 $47,123,333 $13,999,451 3,500,000 1,350,000 30,000,000 2,383,220 3,808,586 10,255,138 150,000 $65,446,395 $13,999,451 3,500,000 10,600,000 30,000,000 2,383,220 3,808,586 10,255,138 150,000 $74,696,395 $3,474,205 1,500,000 2,281,670 2,915,302 5,000,000 115,637 8,050,000 750,000 5,000,000 1,454,466 5,083,333 150,000 $35,774,613 $101,221,008 $148,344,341 $3,474,205 2,281,670 2,915,302 6,475,000 115,637 8,050,000 750,000 5,000,000 1,454,466 6,583,333 150,000 $37,249,613 $111,946,008 $159,069,341 $47,123,333 53,823,656 26,909,553 20,337,799 150,000 $148,344,341 $47,123,333 61,573,656 28,384,553 21,837,799 150,000 $159,069,341 30 Summary of Critical Job Classification Adjustments Departments/Agencies Critical Job Classification Title Provide for supplemental salary adjustments for certain employees in the job titles and departments shown below.
