This budget reflects the continuation of initiatives implemented last year and enhancements that our continued economic growth allows to be funded. We are indeed in a very fortunate position. While we are experiencing rapid growth and an expanding economy, we must target our resources in all areas of state government to those citizens in the greatest need. From the student in our public school who cannot read at grade level, to the child or family which does not have health insurance coverage, to the rural areas that are clamoring for economic revitalization, we must direct our resources to obtain the maximum impact. I believe that this budget brings us closer to that goal and to a brighter future for Georgia. As a normal precaution, I have established a conservative revenue estimate of $13,427,000,000 for FY 2001. First, to fulfill my promise, I am including $166 million, brought forward from FY 2000 surplus, for property tax relief for the citizens of Georgia. Second, in education we must do better for the children of Georgia and we must provide the businesses and communities of this state with citizens who are better prepared for the workforce and for responsible citizenship. This budget proposes the implementation of many new initiatives recommended by the Governor's Education Reform Study Commission (GERSC) that will be included in my legislative package on education. These new initiatives will focus on education equity, interventions for low-performing schools and students and, finally, education accountability and will be funded with $114 million in new appropriations targeted to education reform. To improve equity in education, I am proposing a change in the aBE funding formula to make sure that all children in every school district receive adequate education, regardless of where that child was born or currently resides. Within the aBE formula, I have recommended additional changes in programs and categorical grants that will shift the focus in K-12 education to instruction in the classroom and improving student achievement. To improve our educational outcomes, I am proposing a new Office of Education Accountability to oversee the results of all components of our education system, from pre-kindergarten through post secondary at a very moderate cost of $3 million in the first year. These education reforms being recommended include redirecting allocations from central administration to programs that reduce class size or add additional instructional time for students who are behind academically; that provide for alternative education for disruptive students and students with differing learning styles; and that increase programs for the growing population of children whose native language is not English. To improve our teaching workforce, I am providing almost $500,000 to pay the tuition of teachers who participate in the training of the National Teacher Certification Program by November 2000, and will provide those teachers that pass the examination a 10 % salary supplement. To assist teachers in focusing more on classroom instruction, I am recommending additional school personnel including counselors, psychologists, social workers and, by utilizing tobacco settlement funds, school nurses. All of these actions are designed to help teachers and local schools focus on improved student achievement while at the same time improving school climate and safety. Also, there is a proposal for $155 million to increase the state's contribution to teacher health insurance, increasing the contribution rate from 9.26 % to 13.1 %. In addition, $25 million is recommended for health insurance for non-certificated personnel and retired teachers. I am also recommending $2.6 million to invest in excellence at historically black colleges. For the first time the operations of our technical institutes are being funded on a formula basis at a recommended cost of $8.6 million, another recommendation from GERSC. Moreover, lottery funds continue to be used for HOPE Scholarships and for improvements at all levels of our education system. We must also target state services to our elderly and to the children of the state who are most in need. I propose combining $10.7 million in state, federal Temporary Assistance to Need Families (TANF), and tobacco settlement funds to begin a new early intervention program of intensive outreach services for at-risk families. Because our healthcare and insurance program costs are escalating significantly, I am recommending shifting savings resulting from the implementation of a Pharmacy Benefits Manager for the Medicaid and PeachCare for Kids programs to cover other rising costs in both of these programs. And I am proposing significant healthcare program improvements utilizing funding from the tobacco settlement that Georgia is receiving. Our economy remains strong and continues to grow. To enhance this growth and target the areas of the state most in need, I propose to use over $63 million of this year's tobacco settlement funds to initiate the One Georgia Fund to assist rural areas with economic development activities that will attract new businesses and assist in existing industry expansion. I am also recommending $11 million in state funds to increase the funding of economic development research and commercialization and marketing initiatives of the Georgia Research Alliance and Yamacraw Project. Georgia's natural resources are one of our greatest assets. However, with our expanding growth these assets are coming under increasing stress and we must focus on the areas that have the greatest needs. I am recommending a new program of $30,000,000 to support communities in preserving twenty percent of their land as green space. To address our environmental regulatory issues, I am recommending an increase in the staffing of EPD and an increase in funding to provide direct assistance to Georgia businesses in dealing with environmental problems. We must target our transportation planning to help solve issues that have impacted the flow of federal highway funds to Georgia. This bUdget provides funds to staff the Georgia RegionalTransportation Authority, which is tasked with developing programs and initiatives to address mobility, air pollution and growth problems in the non-attainment metropolitan areas of the state. All Georgians deserve safe and secure communities and roads, and this bUdget increases prison programs and facilities and the staff of our State Patrol. I am including operating funds for the additional 1,300 diversion or transition beds that will come on line in late FY 2001. And, in supporting our Memorandum of Agreement with the U. S. Department of Justice, I am recommending $6.7 million for phasing in 300 new juvenile correctional officers in the Department of Juvenile Justice. Finally, you will find throughout my bUdget recommendations an investment in information technology. We must equip state government with today's technology to prosper in tomorrow's global economy. I have included $2.5 million for Georgia Learning Connection, a web-based education information tool to assist teachers with lesson plans and instructional information. Also, I am including $34.4 million in lottery funds to provide local schools $25 per FTE for the purchase of technology, equipment, and/or technology training. There is also a proposal for $5 million to the GANET for web-based information that will enhance the management of state government and information services to citizens. We have great challenges before us and I am excited about all of these initiatives and proposed improvements for Georgia. As always, I am looking forward to working with you during this legislative session as we craft the future of Georgia.

Georgia's Dual Ecouomies The Private Sector. Economic activity in Georgia occurs in two interdependent sectors. In the private sector, profit-driven businesses foresee opportunity from the acquisition of inputs, their assimilation using chosen technology, and the production of outputs saleable in markets within or without Georgia. Such businesses spend to gain the services oflabor, of sites and natural resources, of managerial and entrepreneurial talent, and of physical and monetary capital. They allow for uncertainties regarding recipes for production and accept risks of a poor selection of marketable products. They move forward with an integration of their private inputs with the available "free" government inputs (ranging from law and order to physical infrastructure). Finally, the resulting outputs are given an identity and are offered for sale. For enterprises with appropriate foresight, outputs of goods and services will be sold for at least as much as needed to recoup the costs of gaining control of the inputs, oforganizing their assimilation, and offashioning outputs to appeal to a targeted set of purchasers. With obligations to their suppliers discharged, businesses become creators of net income for the state. Although the production of goods and services within Georgia is what brings income to the state, the goods and services can be sold and delivered anywhere. Similarly, the income which is generated can be spent on local commodities or on "imports" from other parts of the nation or from foreign suppliers. Whether or not goods and services are exported or income is spent on imports, Georgians realize a net gain. For gains to occur year after year, businesses must grow in number, bolster their productivity, or augment their scale annually as well. Gross state product, the money value of the state's output (or income), will register their behavior. In order that per capita product also grow, businesses must make their choices in a way which raises productivity. Of course, businesses do not raise productivity by recreating their entire operations annually; instead , business advances are driven in the main through incremental adjustments in input, technology, marketing, or product. Choice and redefinition is an ongoing process. The Public Sector. Economic activity in the public sector is driven by the motives of elected officials. While the motive is complex, representatives seem to strive to improve their political standing, to rise in reputation above office seekers with whom they compete, and to raise their own chances of election to the same or other office. Like their business counterparts, public officials are alert to opportunity. Theyincur costs, choose technologies for programs and projects, and generate outputs of goods and services which enhance or complement, directly or indirectly, the incomes which flow to constituents from activities in the private sector. At the same time, the public officials improve their own political wellbeing. A state government's menu of outputs is distilled from among those goods and services which a voting public, already enjoying products and services produced in the for-profit sector, fmds most rewarding. Since there is no market in which a purchase signals voter preferences, the entrepreneurs ofthe state sector must substitute astute judgment, party platforms, polling results, and benchmarking as guides in deciding what the voting public in fact desires and will support. Denied trademarks and advertising techniques which private-sector companies use to underwrite their choices and having no sales prices to adjust to gain appeal, elected representatives become accustomed to accepting the considerable risks in their choices. They come to rely on incremental adjustments. Political moves are tested in "real time" though study commissions, pilot programs, phased-in (or phased-out) provisions, geographical segmenting, demographic separation, extensive pre-conditioning, and publicized launches (and recalls). Considerable weight is placed upon the successes and failures of other elected officials in dealing with their constituents. Politicians "shop" competitively for guidance on issues which their peers and, now, they come to face. Although output choices that suit the electorate afford political advantage, the raising ofmonies to cover costs ofinputs partially offsets that gain. Politicians would avoid that offset if there were a way. However, government has no receipts from sales and so must get its means for purchase by reaching into the private sector. Since distributions of taxes and fees cannot be precisely matched to distributions ofbenefits, the outreach menu oftaxes and fees must be carefully molded in order that political cost be minimized. Because of visibility and near universality, taxes and fees tend to promote sharper reactions among the electorate than do output programs with limited service groups and, often, an apathetic general public. Elected representatives respond to this public reaction using strategies similar to those used to settle the program menu. And, once established, the revenue-generating arm ofstate governments is typically adjusted only at the margin and usually with the "help" of some "crisis". Changes in tax rates and bases are commonplace but changes in major revenue sources are infrequent. Only occasionally when program expenditures and revenue inflows remain persistently and seriously imbalanced will options for a new revenue source be considered. Prior to their introduction, "competitive shopping" to see how a proposed measure has fared or is faring elsewhere likely will be undertaken. Once a change is decided, a stage-setting campaign will typically follow. Revenue functions may appear to be more inertia-bound than service functions involving programs and projects. This is for good reason simply because of their respective bearings on income. If they must be increased, taxes and fees reduce incomes; on the other hand, expanded programs and projects increase incomes. Moreover, the secondary responses of the private sector to changes in taxes are often significant and negative. Thus, a rule of revenues over expenditures may go on for extended periods. Periodically, nevertheless, when imbalances become severe, the sovereignty will be upset 13 AN ECONOMIC REPORT II. The Role of the State-Sector Budget State Budgets in General. For businesses, profit- driven decisions can be aided by listings of anticipated outlays which input volumes and prices impose on the one hand and on the other by listings ofexpected receipts from sales ofthe output which inputs and technology jointly provide. In essence, such dual listings constitute a budget. A comparison of the dollar totals in each listing allows expected profits (net incomes) to be indicated. By incremental adjustments to inputs, technologies, and products, business executives can vary the level ofexpected profits. Taking all of their options into account, the executives can then use a budget to select an optimal activity mix. For a state government, a budget with a parallel scheduling offorces which accomplish and which restrict the achievement of political objectives would assist decision- making. Unfortunately, the political weights tying respectively to programs and projects and to outreach with taxes and fees are manifest only subjectively. As a result, programs and projects have to be entered in a budget in terms of the costs of their provision even though entry in terms of the political worth of their delivery would be preferred. Similarly, outreach with taxes and fees has to be treated in terms of the dollar yield of the components of the government's tax-and-fee function rather in terms ofthe political costs oftheir levy. Marginal adjustments of political benefits and costs in order to decide upon the optimal involvement of state government is then ruled out. Instead, public-sector budgets only permit the expected costs ofprograms and projects to be compared with the revenues expected from outreach. Still, in hearings and debate, the expert judgment of seasoned and well-informed politicians introduces the weighting that promises to make programs in the budget ofhighest political merit and tax-and-fee components ofminimal political detriment. Georgia's Budget in Particular. The Budget Report- Fiscal Year 2001 follows the pattern of state budgets generally. First, the Budget is obviously a political document. The responsibility for its preparation rests with the Governor. In order to serve in the appropriations process in the General Assembly, the Budget must be balanced. It can propose expenditure for programs and projects no higher than the revenue yield expected from the existing taxes and fees. Accordingly, the Budget rests on a private-sector foundation. On the expenditure side of the ledger, the Budget incorporates funding for a set ofprograms and projects which the Governor ranks highest in terms ofpolitical contribution. They best serve the electorate and thereby best serve the elected officials. Though settled by the Governor, the chosen programs must in general suit the members of the General Assembly as well. Obviously, the same must be true of the revenue estimate and its linkage to the private economy. In view of the political service which the Budget affords, the Governor expends much time and effort in uncovering needs which the electorate wants met, in assessing the form, effectiveness, and scale ofprograms aIreadyinplace, and in finding new program technologies yielding more service (and political gain) for each dollar of expenditure. Although the Budget is for Fiscal Year 2001, it builds both on what has gone on in recent fiscal years and what can be expected to mark fiscal years upcoming. The aspects of the private economy which bear on collections are viewed along a path extending at least five years backward and five years forward. Among aspects with relevance for revenues, the Governor must be especially sensitive to the trends in growth in the labor force, to the probable gains in productivity, and to changes in the mix of industry. Risks of an ebb in economic activity must be assessed and preparations made. Since recessions in Georgia typically have their origins outside the state, economic prospects in the nation in particular and in the commercial world generally have to be faced. On the program side, the Governor settles issues of program need as well as ofprogram delivery. Given projections ofdemographics, distributions ofwellbeing, and areas ofservice for state government, the Governor tries to foresee provisions of programs that cater to emerging needs. Also, he endeavors to identify programs whose role will be shrinking. Programs or upgradings started as pilot projects have to be considered for generalization (or restriction) and phase-ins (or phase-outs) have to be marked for acceleration (or deceleration). Even the bureaucratic momentum ofagencies has to be evaluated to insure that government is serving the electorate rather than the reverse. Finally, the cost-effectiveness ofagency operations and the reach of programs toward their goals have to be taken into account. For the Governor, building political relevance into the Budget is a multi-faceted challenge and a many-dimensioned opportunity. ill. The Private-Sector Setting In foreseeing revenues available to the State, the pace of private-sector activity presently, in the near future, and in the more distant future all playa part. While bubbles and bursts in tax-and-fee segments distort activity for short periods, a revenue assessment must look past the peculiarities currently relevant and find the growth path which is underlying. Economic prospects in Georgia must build first upon prospects within the nation. The U.S. Economy. Over the past three years, the U.S. economy has expanded at rates in excess of those experienced during the recovery from the 1990-1991 recession. Real gross domestic product, the overarching measure ofperformance, has climbed by 4.5,4.3, and 4.0 percent respectively in 1997, 1998, and 1999 (first three quarters). While this string of advances falls short of that in the mid-eighties and farther still below that ofthe first halfofthe sixties, the gains are markedly stronger and less volatile than in the 1992-1996 period. Output typically surges early in a recovery but it is unusual to get strong growth seven to nine years after an economic peak. Admittedly, the recovery following the slippage from the 1990 peak was unusual as well. Instead of growths of 5 percent and above as in 19761978 and 1983-1985, the growth in 1993-1995 stayed below 4 percent. 14 AN ECONOMIC REPORT While the 1997-1999 advance is then exceptional only suggests that the investment climb in 1997-1999 "imposes" against the backdrop of the nineties, it does represent a solid rather than constrains increases in 2000-2001. In summary, the expansion and not merely a restoration in the wake ofweakness. U.S. economy has been advancing in 1997-1999 in a manner First, the growth has not reflected a buildup ofinventories which which puts no obvious restraint on continued growth in the next have to be drawn down later. As a percent of gross domestic few years. Of course, future growth is a function of future product, inventories have been declining throughout the three developments as well as of response to the past. years. There is no prospect of a backshifting of gain from 2000 The Georgia Economy. Since Georgia is a part ofthe to 2001. Second, the gain has not built upon a bubble of free trade area called the United States, it is to be expected that consumption financed by debt which will put a damper on the growth pattern in the state would be at least a partial expansion in the next couple of years. Although consumer debt reflection of that in the nation. As Figure 1 illustrates, this is in for purchases of motor vehicles climbed by almost 20 percent fact the case. Over the 1987-1997 period, Georgia's gross state from 1996-1997 to the levels of 1998-1999, the ratio of product has climbed in the pattern of the U.S. gross domestic consumer installment credit outstanding to personal income is no product but, overall, at a stronger rate. In fact, the advance in output for the state was at an annual average rate of about 4.4 FIGURE I GROSS STATE PRODUCT VS. U.S. GROSS DOMESTIC PRODUCT 1987 -1997 (Bnnon. of Constant DoDars; Ratio Scales) 210 GSP percent whereas for the country it was about 2.6 percent. Significantly, the 1990-1991 recession hit hard in Georgia and in the 1989-1991 years absorbed much of Georgia's relative advantage. During the U.S. resurgence of 1997-1999, Georgia 190 enjoyed gains more stable and stronger than earlier in the nineties. Real personal income climbed by 5.3 and 5.4 percent in 170 1998 and 1999 after posting increases ofjust 4.1 percent over the 1992-1996 years. The 1998-1999 income gains placed Georgia's 1511 growth fifth among all the states; over the 1990-1999 period, which includes the impact of recession, Georgia's gains ranked 130 L--- _ tenth. In order to grow faster, either Georgia's labor productivity 5,600 5,900 6,200 6,5110 6,800 7,100 7,400 or its employment would have to show growth above the national GDP average. Because the state's expansion has been in service industries in large part, there are few indicators of raised higher in 1999 than it was in 1996. Admittedly, that ratio, around 17 percent, is at a forty year high. Were it not that consumers have adopted "a monthly charge and pay-offhabit", so high a debt level would be a threat to continuing growth. Third, consumption has been rising but, if motor vehicle and furnishings and appliance purchases are removed, the climb has been no more than allowed by growth in personal income, a low saving rate, and buoyant consumer sentiment. Motor vehicle sales have been climbing sharply for three years, a pace that will not continue. Still, the motor vehicle purchase cycle shows more moderate peaks and valleys than a decade ago. Any drain on 2000 and 2001 will therefore be modest. Sales of furniture and appliances reflects the bulge in new residential investment. Importantly, that surge has been tapering off throughout 1999. Fourth, gross private domestic investment has been exceptionally strong in the 1997-1999 years having risen at rates of about 1012 percent. As a percent of gross domestic product, real investment has been growing strongly and consistently since 1996, Much ofthis gain is explained by increases in spending on information processing equipment and software, increases that have been reaching 20 percent and more. Were all of this investment adding to capacity, growth in 2000-2001 would certainly be slowed as that capacity was absorbed. However, the rate of technological advance in information processing equipment and software and the "broad distribution of its users productivity advantage. However, there is no doubt about Georgia's lead in growth in employment. While the U.S. rise in employment over the 1997-1999 years was about 2.5 percent per year, Georgia's was about 3.1 percent. Significantly, the employment gain in Georgia in these three years was below that achieved in the 1992-1996 years of recovery (4.2 percent). Remembering that real income climbed more slowly in those years than in the last three years, the productivity of Georgia's labor force has clearly been rising even ifat rates no greater than nationally. Although detail for Georgia's gross state product does not match that for the U.S. gross domestic product, all indications are that the forces pushing expansion in the U.S. have been active in the state. However, construction has been a stronger contributor in Georgia. Gauged by employment, Georgia's construction industry added workers at an average rate of6.5 percent over the 1997-1999 years whereas for the nation it was only about 5.0 percent. Much ofthe difference is explained the growth in population which has been at a 2 percent rate in Georgia, half that for the country. The population growth also accounts for the fact that about 80 percent of Georgia's employment gain has been in the population-sensitive industries of trade and services. In the latter industry, employment has been rising at around 5 percent per year whereas for the former the increase has been about 3 percent. Significantly, gains in 15 AN ECONOMIC REPORT both trade and services were stronger earlier in the decade. From 1993 to 1996, services employments climbed at a 7.7 percent and made the state the national leader in growth in that industry. With Georgia's unemployment rate now below 4 percent, a level below any achieved since the sixties, the rate of growth in employment and so in income in the next couple of years has to slow. While in-migration will continue, it is unlikely that it can push population growth much above its current rate of 2.0 percent per year. If employment growth is curbed, the advance in income will also be contained unless the employment gains which are achieved prove to be more productive. With growth coming in trade and services, the elevation of productivity appears unlikely. FIGURE 2 SHARE OF PERSONAL INCOME CLAIMED BY STATE REVENUES PerceDC (Percent) 6.60 6.40 6.20 6.00 5.80 5.60 SAO 5.20 5.00+-"~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 1970 1972 1974 1976 1978 1980 1982 1984 1986 1988 1990 1992 1994 1996 1998 IV. Georgia's State-Sector With income and output advancing strongly in the United States and in Georgia in the past three years and in 1999 in particular, activity in Georgia's state-sector could be expected to advance as well. Afterall, with government services complementing private incomes, as stressed earlier, the calls for programs and projects would seemingly become more frequent and louder. Elected officials would see opportunity in responding and would have the means to do so even without modifying their reach into the private sector with taxes and fees. In fact, such an expansion has taken place. With Georgia's personal income (in current dollars) climbing by about 7.0 percent in FY 1999, the 8.3 percent gain in state revenues appears slightly larger than should have been anticipated. However, the gain for FY 1998 was only 5.3 percent which was below the FY 1997 increment of6.6 percent. In view of the time lags involved in the linkage of tax collections to private activity, it may be surmised that a change in dynamics somehow shifted some revenues affected by activity in FY 1998 into FY 1999. Consequently, collections in FY 1999 were probably overstated and those in FY 1998 understated. If so, revenues probably remained in the same relationship topersonal income as in prior years and, the dynamics of reporting and collection aside, probably grew at about 7 percent each year in line with or slightly greater than growth in personal income. Even without adjustment for tunmg, the state's collections from personal income in the years of strong gain did not rise above the pattern set in the past 30 years. As Figure 2 shows, the outreach function decided by Georgia's elected officials has kept the share ofprivate incomes transferred to the State to buy inputs for its programs and projects within narrow bounds. Despite considerable variation in revenue growth (Figure 3), the participation ratio has varied by little more than that induced by inconstant growth in the private sector. In view ofthe increasing proportion ofrevenues generated by individual income taxes, the stability in share of personal income that is claimed is remarkable. Of course, the more dominant the yield of the individual income tax becomes, the more likely that the yield of the outreach function will vary. The threat to revenues during recession grows especially strong. Both in the nation and in Georgia, there are indications that the growth rate in corporate profits has slowed. The increase in profits in the U.S. in 1999 dropped to half of what it was in 1997. In terms of tax liability, the pattern nationally and in Georgia is volatile. But, growth has been edging downward. As profits ease, so do the resources for investment. And, as highlighted earlier, ifinvestment eases, so probably will growth. This interaction explains why, at the end ofearlier expansions in Georgia, a pronounced and continued weakening of revenues from corporate income taxes has been a harbinger ofslowdowns. Accordingly, it is not good news that corporate income taxes, though only about 6 percent of revenues, should have been weakening in the first few months ofFY 2000. An easing of growth in Georgia's private economy is virtually certain. At full employment, expansion becomes costly. Gains following population and productivity growth are essentially all that can be managed. Consequently, growth in revenues will also slow, probably from a 7 to 8 percent range into a 6 to 7 percent range. But, there is a big difference between a slowdown and a recession. Presently, no economic shock sufficient to induce recession in the U.S. or in Georgia is in sight.

When fully implemented, RBB will move the state towards a results oriented budget as required by the 1993 Budget Accountability and Planning Act. It will provide a concise overview on the progress that state programs are making in addressing the economic, education, social, and service needs of the citizenry. By examining trends in program performance, state policy-makers, agency managers, and program customers will be able to identify effective program strategies and those strategies that need improvement or total revision. This information can be used to "red flag" problem programs for careful review to identify the reasons for substandard performance. This can help policy makers determine whether the apparent lack of program impact has resulted from such problems as: poor planning; faulty program design; ineffective management; inadequate resources; missing, inaccurate, and/or noncurrent data; or extraneous conditions outside the program's control. When fully implemented, RBB will enable the Governor, the General Assembly, program managers, and the public to relate program results to program expenditures. This information will assist the Governor and the General Assembly in allocating scarce resources to best benefit the citizens of Georgia by: Focusing the legislative process upon the policy implications of funds spent in state agency programs and services. Identifying similar programs across state agencies and assessing their combined impact. Identifying successful and unsuccessful programs. Determining when environmental influences indicate changes in program strategies because current strategies no longer meet existing needs. Enabling programs to be evaluated and funded according to their actual benefit to program customers and taxpayers. Aiding policy makers in determining if it is in the best interests of the state to expend funds to achieve a program's identified result. Enhancing the ability of the Office of Planning and Budget to track funding in policy areas across agency boundaries. Enabling program managers to compare the results of different strategies and program sites to identify superior performance, ascertain the reasons for the enhanced performance, and transfer successful strategies to other sites throughout the state. Results-Based Budgeting will provide state policymakers and the general public with information on how government operates, how policy initiatives are implemented, and the results of efforts and expenditures that matter to the taxpayers. Last year, state agencies were asked to update their FY 2000 RBB submissions by providing FY 2001 Desired Results and FY 1999 Actual Results. Agencies were required to provide more complete data disclosure so that persons reading the Results-Based Budget could better understand the reliability, accuracy, and timeliness of reported data. As agencies began compiling data, some agencies found that they did not routinely collect and analyze program results and, thus, began developing data collection systems. Other agencies found that existing data collection methods were inadequate or produced flawed information; they often began modifying the way they collected and analyzed data. Some programs realized that their measures should be revised to adequately assess results so they began work on modifying their next year's Goals and Desired Results. Still other programs found that when they systematically analyzed results data, their previous projections needed to be revised. Readers will find periodic footnotes identifying that actual and desired results data have been revised along with explanations as to why the revisions were necessary. Thus, Results-based Budgeting has not only made government more accountable to its citizens, but also has had an positive impact on government programs. Program managers are already using RBB information to better plan, set priorities, manage, and provide services to the public. This year, the Budget Report includes all executive agencies, their programs and subprograms, program goals, actual results for FY 1998 and FY 1999, and desired results for FY 1999, FY 2000, and FY 2001. For the first time, policy makers and the public can compare programs' projected accomplishments against actual performance and, in doing so, can begin to see trends in the effectiveness of state government programs. 17 State Strategic Plan Vision {or Georgia Georgia is a state blessed with bountiful resources and great people. It is the fastest growing state east of the Mississippi River and is known worldwide as a place in which the environment for business is positive and the quality of life for its citizens is excellent. However, no state can rest on its laurels and expect its economy to continue to flourish and its citizens to grow and prosper. We must maintain our positive national status, but we have new work that must be done to expand our prosperity to all regions of the state and solve issues that threaten our continued success. There are eight areas upon which state government and the people of Georgia must focus to achieve a better Georgia in the new millennium. We start from a great position. We also have formidable challenges. Together we can build the Georgia of the new century by focusing on the education of our people, the health of our citizens, the health of our economy, the stewardship and smart management of our growth, the improvement of our environment, the safety of our communities and a government that is accountable to the taxpayers, the citizens whom government serves. Finally, we must embrace and expand the capacity and the use of all forms of technology, particularly information technology, to achieve success in all elements of our society. Education for Georgia's Future Our state has a strong foundation for educating all of our citizens. However, we must do better. We must act upon our belief that every child in our state can learn, and that no child should be left behind. In the global marketplace of the new millennium, Georgia must improve the education services that we provide our citizens, from birth through lifelong learning opportunities and all education components in between. To improve these education services, the state must focus upon the results that we want our education programs to produce. To make this progress in education results, we must have improved cooperation and communication among all education components at the state, regional and local levels. Additionally, we must develop a system of accountability for all components of the education system. This focus upon accountability will require the development of a measurement system and a student information system that track the progress of every student, at every level of their education experience. The final outcome will be a dynamic education system that delivers on the promise of a quality education for every citizen. Every citizen, our economy, our communities and our society will be the winners for this focus and effort. Safe Communities and Safe Citizens Our state and its cItIzens enjoy a superior quality of life. However, we must be ever vigilant to provide each citizen and community with a sense of security and real safety. No citizen or visitor to this state should fear for his or her safety on our streets, in our neighborhoods or in any community anywhere in Georgia. This requires Georgia to first focus upon the prevention of crime. When crime does occur, however, we must demand and produce swift and accurate justice and provide appropriate sanctions for those offenders who chose to commit crime against the citizens of this state. Our judicial system must be well equipped and staffed to ensure that justice is swift and fair. Our law enforcement community must have the tools and the manpower to prevent crime by its presence and interaction with the community. There must be adequate staffing and equipment to respond quickly and efficiently to crime when it occurs. Finally, we must provide sufficient secure facilities to protect society from violent and dangerous felons. Statewide Economic Prosperity Georgia has enjoyed rich economic growth over the past several years. It is imperative that we continue to enhance the business environment of the state to compete in the global economy. As a regional leader in the South, Georgia must capitalize on the technology resources and infrastructure that we now have to attract new businesses and to keep and expand existing business. As the global and national economies become increasingly knowledge-based, information-driven, and service delivery- focused, we must position Georgia and its citizens to take advantage of these new and emerging markets. We must also focus on bringing economic vitality to all of rural Georgia by investing in economic development strategies and the infrastructure that value innovation, attract businesses and keep communities vital and viable. With we must help localities formulate the entire ideas and wcoreraldteasbuasminaerskseet~ and strategies that meet this new international market for products and services. In concert with the state's education reform efforts, we must ensure that Georgia's workforce is well prepared, educated and trained. New and existing businesses must have a qualified workforce to create economic prosperity for Georgia. We must always provide a positive environment for business to flourish and ensure a quality of life that will attract companies to locate and thrive here. Transportation and Land Use Planning The metropolitan areas of Georgia have experienced remarkable and prosperous economic and physical growth over the past two decades. Many of this state's metropolitan counties are among the fastest growing counties in the United States. While this has been a blessing for the economic prosperity of our citizens, it has also created challenges for the continued exceptional quality of life that we enjoy throughout Georgia. The orderly development of our metropolitan communities is required to protect our water and air quality, to improve our commute times and reduce traffic congestion, to protect our "green spaces" and to promote our overall quality of life that every citizen demands and deserves. The balancing of growing our economy and building businesses while ensuring a good quality of life for each citizen must be carefully managed for 'good' growth. With better coordination and collaboration between local entities and the state, we must ensure that wise transportation and land use decisions are made when we add housing and business developments and new business centers. Our cities and 18 State Strategic Plan communities in the metropolitan areas of Georgia must be livable, prosperous, clean, safe and places where people want to work and can enjoy their lives in the way they choose. These are communities where commerce can thrive. Clean Environment and Water Stewardship Georgia's natural resources are vast and impressive. We must never reduce our commitment to keeping these resources clean and wholesome for our present citizens as well as for future generations. This will require a united front from government, business, communities and individual citizens. Clean air, water and soil are critical components of a successful state and a positive quality of life. We must conserve when needed. We must clean up our mistakes of the past. We must ensure that the infrastructure for water and sewer statewide is modem and safe. Our rivers and lakes must be clean, and our water sources must be protected and preserved. And we must be vigilant in our wastewater management to support our overall water resource management. Without clean air, water and soil, we cannot have healthy citizens and our ability to attract and keep business will be negatively impacted. We must have the resolve to be vigilant in balancing our needs for growth with our needs to have healthy citizens and communities. We must forever protect our natural resources for today and in the future. Community Health A strong state is made up of strong and healthy citizens and communities. The continuing shift in healthcare delivery across America has created challenges for our state to ensure that all citizens receive the healthcare that they need. With pressing issues of healthcare costs and medical insurance coverage for all citizens, the state must continue its efforts to control state associated healthcare costs and provide the necessary insurance coverage to indigent children who are not insured. Georgia needs a healthcare system that works in the marketplace but also provides medical care for every Georgian who needs that care. This requires a strong partnership among the medical delivery system, the insurance industry and the state to maximize citizens access to comprehensive healthcare. Good healthcare systems that provide comprehensive, accessible and efficient medical care for citizens are important to the economic vitality of the state. Accountable Government Good government is an important component of a successful state and community. Government can broker alliances with the private sector and citizens to foster solutions to many issues. A successful state government should not get in the way of its lawabiding, tax-paying citizens. Georgia's state government must be managed to provide the maximum of responsive, useful and excellent services for the minimum, most efficient cost. Citizens trust government that provides services they need and that can show results of the programs that are provided. In education, every citizen should know if our children and students have learned the curriculum that they are expected to. learn. In the environment, citizens want to know if the air and water is cleaner. If targets and improvements are not achieved in these and other areas, then strategies can be implemented to get the results that citizens need and demand. State government can manage its programs more effectively and efficiently if it measures results for accountability purposes. The taxpayers must always be able to determine the value of what they get for their tax investment. Technology Every other component discussed in this VISion cannot be achieved without the integrated use of technology throughout Georgia and at all levels of government in our state. The global marketplace is becoming a knowledge-based economy. Information and the quick access to that information will be the critical component in achieving the success we have outlined in education, community and citizen safety, statewide economic development, well managed growth for Georgia, a clean environment and water stewardship, community health and finally, an accountable and good government. Technology will provide the connectivity between all elements of government, the private sector and Georgia's citizens. Georgia must build the technology infrastructure and capacity to compete in this new global marketplace. Georgia must also ensure that we have a technology-literate citizenry and workforce. The new millennium will bring enormous challenges but also remarkable opportunities for Georgia. Our state, its businesses and its citizens must be connected to that world of the 21 st century to prosper, and technology will provide that connection. Conclusion The future of Georgia is bright and full of promise. We must rededicate our efforts to provide quality education for all Georgians of all ages. We must provide for the safety of all our citizens and communities. We must foster a prosperous economic environment. Because of our successes in economic development, we must manage the development and population growth through good transportation and land use planning. We must ensure a clean environment and proper stewardship of all of our water resources. We must enable a comprehensive healthcare process that provides access to adequate healthcare to all Georgians. We must demand and deliver a good and accountable state government that provides effective and efficient services and programs. And, finally, we must embrace and expand technology in the lives of all citizens to achieve all ofthe above goals. 19 READER'S GUIDE The FY 2001 Budget Report for the State of Georgia is one of three publications that deal with the Governor's budget recommendations to the 2000 General Assembly. This Budget Report reveals the Governor's detailed budget recommendations for FY 2001, which begins July 1, 2000 and ends June 30, 2001. It also includes detailed information about past, current and projected revenue collections; past expenditures and budgets; program policies; and state organizational structures. This document is released in connection with the Governor's budget message to the Georgia General Assembly during the first week of its annual session. An Amended Budget Report, released during the week prior to the session, details spending changes recommended by the Governor for the fiscal year underway when the General Assembly meets in regular session in January of each year. The Amended Budget Report presented to the 2000 General Assembly recommends amendments to the state's budget for the fiscal year that ends on June 30, 2000. The Budget in Brief is published in May after the legislative session ends and covers all expenditures authorized by the General Assembly for the upcoming fiscal year and for the current fiscal year in effect. CHANGES IN FY 2001 The FY 2001 Budget Report is organized essentially in the same format as the previous edition, but there is one noteworthy change. The third phase of the RBB program is underway. RESULTS-BASED BUDGETING RBB is a recent initiative that divides all state government activities into programs. The future of all programs, in terms of their continuing existence and funding level, will be determined by how well they measure up to the performance measurements that will be recommended in the future by the Governor and approved by the General Assembly. RBB information is presented in two parts-Program Summaries and Program Fund Allocations. The first phase of Program Summaries in the FY 1998 Budget Report provided information on each program by name, purpose and goals. The second phase, documented in the FY 1999 Budget Report, identified desired results expected from each program during FY 1999. The second phase also refined and identified programs more in line with the state's original expectations. The FY 2000 Budget Report started phase three, which involved the identification of benchmarks against which desired results will be measured. The FY 2001 document completes phase three by including actual results for RBB programs against previously identified desired results. The Program Fund Allocations section provides the Governor's FY 2001 budget recommendations for each program and the FY 2000 actual appropriations. Total and state funds are shown separately. The recommendations and prior appropriations are both displayed by agency programs, attached agency programs and pass-through funding. This display provides a fuller accounting of an agency's mix of funds than previously provided in the state's budget documents. REDIRECTION A new dimension was added to the State of Georgia's budget process beginning with FY 1997 - Redirection. The concept will be entering its fifth year in FY 2001, and it has been one of the main instruments in making possible increases in funding for specific areas during a period when revenue growth has been moderating and citizens are demanding improved services. An understanding of Redirection and its impact on the budget is especially important in understanding the philosophy that is guiding the Governor's approach to the budget. While the impact of redirection is spread throughout the entire budget, it is highlighted in two sections in each department summary -- the Financial Summary and Budget Summary pages. Redirection requires all agencies to reexamine how they do business. The Governor wants them to study their expenditures carefully and eliminate or downsize those activities that are no longer needed or have a low priority as compared to other higher priority new or enhanced services. To achieve this goal, all departments had to present their FY 2001 budget requests based on a reallocation of at least 5% of an agency's FY 2000 adjusted base budget. Agencies are allowed to include general efficiency cuts, or reductions in their operating expenses, as a part of their redirection proposals. The reallocated funds identified may be used for three purposes: Fund ongoing services or enhancements within an agency using the current level of resources. Fund growth in formula and entitlement-related services in a way that minimizes the amount of new resources historically required in these areas. 20 READER'S GUIDE Increase fund availability for priority areas within state government as a whole. The adjusted base budget was determined in two stages. First, all non-recurring expenditures were deducted from the FY 2000 budget. Second, funds were added to annualize carry-forward requirements such as 2000 salary adjustments. Once the adjusted base budget was determined, agency heads were allowed to request enhancement funds for new or expanded services above the 100% adjusted base level. Agency enhancement requests were limited to 4% of the adjusted base. Generally speaking, enhancement funds represent a funding level that in recent years has been known as improvement fund requests. The major difference is that there is now a cap on enhancement funds whereas there was no cap on funds requested for improvements. Also, much of the funding that was once requested as improvement funds must now be requested in redirected dollars, not the add-on dollars represented by enhancement allocations. There is no limit on the amount of capital funds that can be requested. THE FY 2001 BUDGET REPORT Departments can have as many as 11 separate sections in this FY 2001 Budget Report with each section providing a different level of information about the Governor's proposed spending program for the upcoming year. Following is an explanation of each section. ORGANIZATION CHART Each agency's section starts with an Organization Chart that displays the major divisions comprising each department. The description of services performed by each division is noted in the Roles and Responsibilities section. The numbers in each block represent total budgeted state positions as of October I, 1999 for each division. The total number of positions budgeted for each department is listed underneath each department's title at the top of the page. HIGHLIGHTS The Highlights page for each department provides a summary of new or expanded appropriations that are being recommended for that department by the Governor. The page may be omitted for any agency that does not have sufficient enhancements to justify a separate page for such highlights. FINANCIAL SUMMARY The Financial Summary for each department provides up to 12 different levels of budget information by object class, including expenditures for 2 prior years, the current budget, agency requests and the Governor's recommendations. The first page of each summary includes the following information concerning expenditures, current budget and agency requests: FY 1998 and FY 1999 actual expenditures, FY 2000 current operating budget, and FY 2001 agency requests by redirection level, enhancements and totals. The second page of each summary includes the following information concerning the FY 2001 Governor's recommendations: Adjusted Base, Funds to Redirect, Additions, Redirection totals, and Enhancement totals. Each Financial Summary includes the total funds recommended or appropriated to each department, including state general funds, federal funds, funds collected and retained by departments, and any other funds available to them. The totals for each category of fund sources are shown at the bottom of the tables. Total State Funds, displayed in bold type, represents state general funds either recommended or appropriated to the departments. The number of positions and motor vehicles are the last items displayed under each table. BUDGET SUMMARY The Budget Summary explains the Governor's recommendations, as displayed by object class on the second page of the Financial Summary section, from the perspective of new budget initiatives being recommended by the Governor concerning new, expanded or redirected programs and services that are to be funded. Each column of the Governor's Recommendations page of the Financial Summary is explained in sequence in the Budget Summary. ADJUSTMENTS TO CURRENT BUDGET. The first line lists the existing state appropriations for FY 2000, adjusted to include budget transfers between appropriations that were necessary before work could begin on developing recommendations for FY 2001 spending. These adjustments include additional funds to annualize salary increases and reductions for non-recurring expenditures. 21 READER'S GUIDE These adjustments to the 2000 appropriation total provides the Adjusted Base. This is the starting point for the Governor in making decisions on his FY 200 I budget recommendations. REDIRECTION FUNDS. The section on Funds to Redirect is an explanation of the numbers displayed on column 2 of the Governor's Recommendations page of the Financial Summary. The Additions section explains column 3, while the Total Redirection Level number represents column 4. ENHANCEMENT FUNDS. Column 5 is explained in this section, separated by Enhancement Funds and Capital Outlay. The Total State Funds number matches with column 6. FUNCTIONAL BUDGET SUMMARY Functional budgets by total and state funds are displayed in this section for the current year's appropriations and recommendations by the Governor for the upcoming fiscal year. ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES This page describes basic department responsibilities as determined by law, policy or mandate. It also describes how departments are organized to carry out their missions. Since the organization charts for each department no longer carries information about the responsibilities of each division within the department, the Roles and Responsibilities page for FY 200 I combines the contents of both pages found in older budget reports. STRATEGIES AND SERVICES This section discusses the major budget and policy changes taking place in each department. The discussion focuses on major initiatives that are in the final stages of implementation, those that are currently being implemented and possibly expanded, and new initiatives that are being proposed for the future. CAPITAL OUTLAY The state's Capital Improvement Program was expanded to 5 years to be more consistent with the timeframe of the State Strategic Plan and most agency strategic plans. In addition to listing each agency's capital outlay requests and the Governor's recommendations for FY 200 I, the Capital Improvement Program displays capital outlay needs for fiscal years 2002 through 2005, as identified by the agencies. The multi-year Capital Improvement Program recognizes that most major capital projects should have sufficient planning, analysis, and predesign work completed prior to a formal request for design and construction funds. It also requires agencies to view the budget requests as the first year of their multi-year capital plan. Both the FY 200 I capital requests and recommendations and the fiscal year 2002-2005 projections are organized and displayed by groups of projects with a common interest, with each group being subdivided using 5 project type categories. First, projects are grouped by such general or common subject areas as institutions, authorities, commissions, centers, or by common relationships, such as Major Markets, Wildlife Resources, Local School Systems or Regional Youth Development Centers. Second, the major groupings are subdivided into the following capital project type categories: Property Acquisition, New Construction, Renovations and Improvements, Major Repairs, and Equipment. The total project costs are listed for all projects. The Governor's recommendation is provided for each requested project. APPENDIX Several items of supplemental and general background information are displayed in this section, including the state surplus for the prior 2 years, a 3-year record of authorized positions, historical information and current data about state bonds and debt, an explanation of the basis of budgeting and accounting, an overview of Georgia's budget process, a statistical overview of the state, the identification of acronyms, and a glossary of budget-related terms. 22 Financial Summaries ESTIMATED FUND AVAILABILITY, BUDGETS AND SURPLUS SURPLUS: State Funds Surplus Audited Agencies' Lapse - State Funds Lottery Surplus Estimated Agencies' Lapse - Lottery Prior-Year Surplus: FY 1998 Appropriated in HB 144 FY 1997 & FY 1998 Medicaid Reserves RESERVES: Midyear Adjustment Reserve Motor Fuel Total Surplus, Lapses and Reserves I I FISCAL YEAR 2000 FISCAL YEAR 2001 $ 273,809,460 47,717,603 136,672,034 24,855,441 83,000,000 32,932,188 126,961,098 5,870,997 $ 731,818,821 REVENUES: State Revenue Estimate FY 1999 Carry Forward Suplus for Property Tax Relief Indigent Care Trust Fund Lottery Proceeds Tobacco Settlement Funds $ 12,516,275,000 $ 13,427,000,000 166,000,000 148,828,880 148,828,880 543,000,000 530,000,000 150,000,000 TOTAL STATE FUNDS AVAILABLE $ 13,939,922,70I $ 14,421,828,880 24 GEORGIA REVENUES: FY 1997-FY 1999 AND ESTIMATED FY 2000-FY 2001 I.

This reserve acts as a savings account or "rainy day" fund for the state should revenue collections decline unexpectedly or uncontrollably. The reserve is created and maintained by allocating any surplus revenue collections of the state to this account up to 3% of net revenue collections, excluding lottery funds and the Indigent Care Trust Fund. Additional surplus over 3% is available for appropriation. The status of the reserve, as of the end of the fiscal year, for the last 15 years is as follows: FY 1999 FY 1998 FY 1997 FY 1996 FY 1995 FY 1994 FY 1993 FY 1992 FY 1991 FY 1990 FY 1989 FY 1988 FY 1987 FY 1986 FY 1985 $380,883,294 351,545,470 333,941,806 313,385,534 288,769,754 249,484,896 Partially filled 85,537,891 Partially filled - 0- --- 194,030,593 176,727,306 162,639,563 150,621,753 138,234,402 Revenue Shortfall Reserve Annual Amounts $400 -.~ =e $300 ~.=.e0=.. $200 $100 < $0 1985 1986 1987 1988 1989 1990 1991 1992 1993 19941995 1996 1997 1998 1999 Fiscal Year IIRevenue Shortfall Reserve funded DUnfunded portion of 3% of net revenue 32 LOTTERY RESERVES Georgia's lottery laws require the establishment of two reserves that are funded as a percentage oflottery collections to avoid disruption in programs 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% ofthe total lottery proceeds deposited into the Lottery for Education Account for the preceding year. Ifnet 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 reserve each year and totaled $55,507,200 on June 30, 1999. The lottery law was amended during the 1994 legislative session to require that a Scholarship Shortfall Reserve Subaccount also be maintained within the Lottery for Education Account. The scholarship reserve law requires that the subaccount be fully established over five years at a rate of 10 percent a year until the reserve equals 50% of the amount of scholarship proceeds disbursed during the preceding year. Lottery surplus available at the end ofFY 1995 was sufficient to meet immediate needs in the amended FY 1996 budget and left enough funds to fully fund the scholarship reserve in its first year. The State Auditor, at the request of the Governor, fully funded the Scholarship Shortfall Reserve Subaccount from the 1995 surplus. The Subaccount's balance on June 30, 1999 totaled $77,718,586, as compared to the statutory requirement of$65,706,349. The two lottery reserves as of June 30, 1999 total as follows: Shortfall Reserve Subaccount $ 55,507,200 Scholarship Shortfall Reserve Subaccount 77,718,586 TOTAL LOTTERY RESERVES $133,225,786 Lottery Reserves $100 =';" :S $75 i .Q.==..

O.C.G.A.) provides that the proceeds from the lottery be appropriated for programs in four areas: voluntary pre-kindergarten for four-year-olds; scholarships and student loans; capital improvements for education; and costs of providing technology training to teachers and repairing and maintaining instructional technology. Available lottery funds are now projected to be $530,000,000 for 2001. The Governor recommends $530,000,000 for the following programs. VOLUNTARY PRE-KINDERGARTEN FOR FOURYEAR-OLDS This program is designed to give Georgia's four-year-olds developmentally appropriate programs to enable them to begin kindergarten ready to learn. The Governor recommends funding of $232,645,928 in 2001 to serve 63,500 four-year-olds. This funding is based on public school programs serving 27,347 four-year-olds and all other private providers serving 36,153 four-year-olds. Public schools will receive $3,413.86 in base earnings per student. The reimbursement rates for private providers are based on region due to varying costs ofproviding services. Weekly rates for 2001 for the 36-week program represent a 2% increase over the 2000 rates and are as follows: With a State-Certified Teacher: Zone 1*$94.10 Zone 2*$85.42 With a Non-Certified Teacher: HELPING OUTSTANDING PUPILS EDUCATIONALLY (HOPE) AND OTHER SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAMS These programs are designed to increase higher education participation and completion rates for Georgia students. The Governor's recommendation for the HOPE program for 200 1 consists of the following components. For the high school class of 1993 through 1999, all course work taken in high school is used in calculating the final grade point average. (This grade point average is 3.0 for the college preparatory diploma and 3.2 for the technical diploma). For the high school graduating class of 2000, only the grades earned in core curriculum high school subjects will be counted in figuring the grade point average. For the class of2001, an additional unit of math will be required for the college preparatory diploma. Governor Barnes recommends for FY 2001 that sophomores in the HOPE scholarship program whose average drops below a "B" average will be eligible to regain HOPE for their senior year if their cumulative grade point average rises to a "B" average or better at the end of their junior year. He also recommends that seniors who had not previously qualified for HOPE but who attain a cumulative "B" average at the end oftheir junior year receive HOPE for their senior year. HOPE scholarship awards for eligible students attending public institutions will be equal to the difference between the cost of tuition and eligible fees plus an allowance for textbooks. HOPE scholarship awards for freshmen, sophomores and juniors enrolled at eligible private colleges in Georgia, who meet the academic requirements described above, will equal the cost of tuition and mandatory fees up to $3,000. HOPE scholarships will be awarded in addition to existing Tuition Equalization Grants (TEG). Zone 1*$84.73 Zone 2*$76.04 * These zones are based on the 1994 survey of local market rates for childcare sponsored by the Georgia Department of Human Resources, Division of Family and Children's Services in accordance with federal regulations. The zones are as follows: Zone 1 - Metro Atlanta and Zone 2 - All Other. The total funding includes $20,128,575 for at-risk services including resource coordination services and transportation for at-risk four-year-olds and their families. In addition, $240,000 funds start-up costs for the expansion from 62,500 students in FY 2000 to 63,500 in FY 200 1. Additional start-up funds appear in the Amended FY 2000 Budget. All students working toward a diploma or certificate at public technical institutes in the state will receive a grant equal to the cost oftuition and eligible fees, plus an allowance for textbooks. Students who are working towards a degree at a technical institute must qualify for HOPE as described below. For the high school class of 1993 through 1999, all course work taken in high school is used in calculating the fmal grade point average. (This grade point average is 3.0 for the college preparatory diploma and 3.2 for the technical diploma). For the high school graduating class of2000, only the grades earned in core curriculum high school subjects will be counted in figuring the grade point average. Beginning in the 1997-1998 school year, students working toward a degree at public technical institutes in the state who earned a 3.0 cumulative grade point average in their freshman year, whether or not they were eligible for HOPE grants in their freshman year, will be eligible for HOPE grants for their sophomore year. Each grant will be equal to the cost of 34 RECOMMENDED DISTRIBUTION OF LOTTERY PROCEEDS BY PROGRAMS tuition and eligible fees, plus an allowance for textbooks. HOPE grants will be paid to the technical institutes. Beginning July 1, 1993, any Georgia resident who earns a GED will receive a certificate worth $500 which may be spent for education-related purposes such as tuition, books, supplies or expenses related to the furtherance of the resident's postsecondary education. The HOPE program will be administered by the Georgia Student Finance Commission. All non-administrative costs will be distributed to the University System, technical institutes and eligible private colleges. The cost for this program in FY 2001 is projected to be $219,735,583. This includes Governor Barnes' recommendation that, beginning with 2001, the Pell grant offset will be removed for students seeking degrees, or diplomas at eligible collegeS-OI:.technical institutes. The Georgia Military Scholarship Program provides up to 66 military scholarships for Georgia Military College students. Eligible students receive a low interest loan, which will be forgiven ifthe individual participates in the reserve or in active duty in the United States armed forces.

State funds recommended for this program total $975,000 for FY 2001. The Engineering Scholarships are provided as service cancelable loans to Georgia residents, who are engineering students at private accredited engineering universities in Georgia, and to retain them as engineers in the state. Recipients must work in an engineering-related field one year for each $3,000 received. The cost of this program in FY 2001 is $600,000. The Postsecondary Options program pays tuition to allow eligible high school students to earn postsecondary course credit while still in high school pursuant to 20-2-161 O.C.G.A. The program includes a provision allowing those students living beyond a reasonable commuting distance from public colleges but within a reasonable commuting distance from a private college to attend the private college under the Postsecondary Options program. The cost ofthis program in 2001 is $1,500,000. The total cost of all scholarship, loan and grant programs recommended by the Governor is $227,382,697. The HOPE Teacher Scholarship Program provides forgivable loans to teachers who desire to obtain advanced degrees in teaching areas in which the supply of prospective teachers is in critical shortage, or who desire to enhancetheir critical teaching skills. Recipients who teach four years in Georgia public schools after receiving the loan will have their loans forgiven.

The redirection level changes made in agencies' FY 2000 budgets enabled the Governor to focus spending on education, public safety, and transportation issues. The agenices' FY 2001 redirection level reflects improved services from efficiencies undertaken by department heads and their boards as well as the identification and elimination of various efforts considered to be of lower priorities.

DOAS receives most of its revenues by charging for services as they are rendered. Of an initial budget totaling $175,851,564 for FY 2000, direct state funds totaled only $40,738,207, or 23%. The department operates through the Administration, Statewide Business Services, General Support Services, Risk Management and Information Technology divisions, which provide support services to state agencies. DOAS SERVICES Information Technology Services designs, develops, programs, manages and maintains data processing and telecommunication systems for agencies. The division provides centralized data processing services that include payroll, personnel, accounting, budgeting, vehicle management and inventory services adaptable to all agencies and furnishes agencies cost effective telephone, data, video (including teleconferencing, distance learning and telemedicine), voice processing, paging and radio communications services along with radio and telephone maintenance services. Space Management assists agencies in the location of adequate and safe space in state-owned facilities or commercially leased space and assists agencies in the design of space. This unit maintains a current computerized inventory of all state-owned buildings on Capitol Hill and state-occupied commercially leased space. State Purchasing provides centralized purchasing services for state agencies, develops and administers statewide contracts, solicits bids, and issues purchase orders for agencies. The section monitors agencies' purchase practices for compliance with state regulations, and develops and maintains state specifications and standards for purchasing. Central Supply Services purchases and warehouses commonly used, high-volume supplies and sells them to state agencies and local governments at a cost savings. Motor Vehicle Services (MVS) operates a daily vehicle rental program for state agencies in the Metro Atlanta area and offers a comprehensive vehicle maintenance management plan on a cost per mile basis. MVS also provides full-service and self-service fuel and oil to state agencies in the Metro Atlanta area. Printing Services provides reprographic printing services to all state agencies and other governmental organizations. Surplus Property is responsible for acquiring property being surplused by state agencies and the federal government and making the property available to other state agencies and local government equitably and cheaply. These services are provided through warehouses located in Atlanta, Americus and Swainsboro. Risk Management insures all state real and personal property through a self-insurance program that maintains adequate and economical coverage and assists state agencies and authorities in establishing safety programs and driver improvement programs designed to reduce accidents in their agencies. Mail and Courier Services provides timely delivery of inter-office mail to Capitol Hill agencies, and furnishes courier delivery to user agencies not located on Capitol Hill. ATTACHED AGENCIES The Office of Treasury and Fiscal Services manages, invests and disburses most state revenues. The Georgia Building Authority provides maintenance, groundskeeping, food service, parking and security for the employees and facilities within the Capitol Hill office complex and other specified areas. The State Properties Commission coordinates the purchase, management, inventory records and disposition of real property acquired and owned by the state. The Health Planning Review Board conducts appeal hearings on decisions of the Health Planning Agency. The Georgia Net Authority provides centralized marketing, provision, sale, and leasing, or executing license agreements for access on line or in volume, of certain public information maintained in electronic format to the public. The Office of State Administrative Hearings conducts administrative hearings of contested cases for specified state agencies. DISTANCE LEARNING AND TELEMEDICINE UNIVERSAL FUND The Distance Learning and Telemedicine Fund [mances a statewide telecommunication network that utilizes audio and video systems to teach in Georgia's public schools, and enhance and improve the delivery of medical care throughout the state. Both systems allow communication from a central point to a remote area. AUTHORITY Title 50-5, 40-3548 Georgia Code Annotated. 59 DEPARTMENT OF ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES Strategies and Services The Department of Administrative Services (DOAS) provides an assortment of services to state agencies. A few of the areas in which the department furnishes agencies services or support are described below. The items featured are the: establishment of an Enterprise Network Operations Center, Order Process Improvement Project, conversion to the Statewide Transport Network, implementation of the state purchasing card program, privatization of state fuel card management program, and development of the alternative fuels program. ENTERPRISE NETWORK OPERATIONS CENTER The department in its evaluation of the best private and public sector management and operation practices is adopting two of these approaches to consolidate the operation of its various voice and data network systems as well as its "help desk". The goal in consolidating these related systems and activities is to enable the department to better manage and plan their operation, resulting in improved service to customer agencies. The first approach addresses the primary concern of organizing the assortment of voice and data systems into a single operation through consolidating all of these network functions into an Enterprise Network Operations Center (ENOC). The establishment of an ENOC allows for expanded and centralized oversight of these systems and carries the real potential of improving service and reliability to network users, facilitating the introduction of new and efficient technologies, making more effective use of skilled technical personnel, and lowering operating costs. In order to benefit greater from the array of network software tools available, the Center plans to integrate these tools into a single monitoring system which will have the ability to identify problems within the Center's networks faster and more accurately, with the proper personnel notified sooner than under the current decentralized system management framework. These advantages enable Center management to become increasingly proactive in recognizing and resolving network problems, which benefits network customers through improved service. The second approach involves unifying the department's 12 information technology "help desks" that have evolved over the years for the state's assorted systems and networks. When consolidation of these "help desks" is completed, customers will have a single "help desk" to contact for assistance concerning any of the department's systems or networks. The single "help desk" concept promises to eliminate customer confusion and frustration in determining which "help desk" to seek assistance, as is the case with the present collection of "help desks". The single desk also permits a problem affecting more the one system or network to be handle easier, efficiently and effectively since the staff knowledgeable about the systems and networks in use are available to resolve the problem in one area rather than in the present fragmented arrangement. The department anticipates that the establishment of the ENOC combined with the "help desk" consolidation will position it to deliver better service to its customers. In following these best practices, the department also hopes to experience more effective and efficient use of personnel and fmancial resources. ORDER PROCESS IMPROVEMENT PROJECT In September 1997, the department, after a review of its customer service operation, initiated the Order Process Improvement Project (OPIP) as the primary means of improving and expanding its ability to efficiently and effectively respond to customer needs regarding products 60 and services acquired from DOAS. When completed, this project will have completely revamped the way customer service activities are organized and performed within DOAS. The OPIP's objective is to redesign and develop standard operating processes to meet several objectives: Reduce the time to process orders, procure items and bill for services. Improve the ability of DOAS and its customers to determine the status of an order. Improve inventory accuracy and lower the amount of money invested in inventory. Streamline work and eliminate duplicate processes within the department. Automate the redesigned operating processes to the extent feasible. Convert to operating systems and practices which support the use of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) compliant accounting. Replace existing department internal operations computer systems which are not Year 2000 compliant. Several recommendations have resulted from this project and are currently being implemented. Two major recommendations are the consolidation of all the department's customer service activities into a central customer service center; and identifying all functions related to procurement, inventory and warehousing and organizing them into a single section within the department. The central customer service center began as a pilot operation during FY 1999 with the entire program expected to be implemented statewide in phases throughout FY 2000. Once the project is complete, the department hopes to realize significant gains in product and service delivery, and in its customer service performance. These gains are DEPARTMENT OF ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES - Strategies And Services anticipated to allow the department to operate more efficiently and at less cost in these areas. STATEWIDE TRANSPORT NETWORK In an effort to ascertain how and to what extent the state's video, audio and data network infrastructure must be updated due to changing technology and network customer needs, the department, in association with the Information Technology Policy Council, the Georgia Tech Communications Systems Center and several customers, conducted an analysis of the state's current network infrastructure. From this study, plans and requirements were developed to modernize the state's present network infrastructure. The resulting Statewide Transport Network (STN), which will be installed in phases over the next several years, possesses a number of advantages over the present more limited and increasingly outdated system. These advantages include additional capacity and bandwidth for video, audio and data transmission; wider range of services and features; faster response times; greater reliability; enhanced transmission security; and state of the art technology. The installation of the STN should help carry the state's networking capabilities and economic development opportunities well into the future. IMPLEMENTATION OF THE STATE PURCHASING CARD PROGRAM The department in its ongoing effort to make the purchasing process for state agencies more flexible, responsive and less expensive, has issued to and is now allowing state agencies to use purchasing cards for purchases of $2,500 or less. Using the purchasing card eliminates the excessive time and paperwork formerly necessary to process orders for small value items, allowing items to be obtained more promptly with a significantly reduced administrative cost. The bank vendor pays for the card purchases made and sends participating agencies a monthly invoice with a record of card transactions and card usage so these agencies can monitor the purchases being made, assure the purchases are valid, and that the card is being used properly. After the invoice has been reviewed and reconciled, the agency pays the bank vendor with a single check, as opposed to the numerous checks the non-card purchase approach requires. Since most of the card information is transmitted electronically between the bank and the agencies, the transfer of purchasing information to agency accounting offices is more accurate and timely. Under the purchasing card arrangement, an added benefit to companies selling small value goods to the state is that they are paid through the bank within three days. Conversely, in the case of a non-card purchase, payment through the agency would take several days to several weeks due to the extra paperwork and processing time associated with non-card purchases. The department is aiming to eventually convince all agencies and institutions to enroll in the purchasing card program, and have the amount of non-card purchases of items costing $2,500 or less drop 75%. The department also hopes to expand the scope of card purchases beyond the current supplies, materials and equipment allowed. The expanded scope would include small value services and utilities as well as statewide, agency and mandatory source contract purchases. 61 DEPARTMENT OF ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES Results-Based Budgeting Program Summaries GENERAL SUPPORT SERVICES PURPOSE: Reduce cost and increase efficiency in meeting the business administrative and support needs of customers by offering a central source of goods and services.

AUTHORITY Title 5, 42-208, Georgia Code Annotated. 82 DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE Strategies and Services The Department of Agriculture hosts a variety of programs and services in its regulation of agriculture and agriculture related industries, as well as in its education and protection of the public on agriculture and associated areas (i.e., retail food stores, petroleum products, meat and poultry inspections, etc.). The following strategies and services illustrate activities occurring in the Food and Milk Safety, Pesticide and Pesticide Container Disposal, Agriculture Product Promotion, Fuel and Measures, Structural Pest Control, and the Animal Protection programs. FOOD AND MILK SAFETY The Food and Milk Safety Program consists of the following types of inspections: retail food store, meat and milk. The rising number of non-traditional retail sales establishments expanding into the retail food sector prompted the department to begin implementing a new electronic inspection system to cope with the added workload and other demands these developments in the retail food industry have placed on the department's inspectors. Additionally, the department's retail food inspectors are also continuing to receive advanced level training in all areas of food processing, including in-store meat processing, seafood handling, deli operations and bakery operations in order to remain abreast of developments in the retail food field. Meat inspectors currently inspect and license 148 red meat slaughter and processing facilities for the purpose of assuring the production of wholesome, unadulterated and properly labeled meat/poultry products. The Meat Inspection program's responsibilities were expanded in 1995 with the commencement of the voluntary inspection program concerning ratite (i.e. ostrich, emu, rhea) slaughter and processing. The ratite meat program allows red meat slaughter/processing plants to be approved to slaughter/process ratite meat for sale to the public. Another event affecting the entire meat inspection program is the federal government's stipulation that state meat inspection programs convert to the Performance Based Inspection System (PBIS). This system, now fully implemented, electronically generates an objective inspection schedule and criteria based on the specified meat establishment's processes and compliance history. The long range goal of the meat inspection program is to provide inspections that are comparable to those conducted at federally inspected establishments in degree and scope, and to effectively cross-utilize resources in performing these conjunction with local governments and organizations to collect plastic pesticide containers for recycling. Presently, 30 counties are involved in this endeavor. The program is projected to recycle 273,000 pounds of chipped plastic in FY 1999 through these efforts compared to the 245,250 pounds recycled in FY 1997. The division is also sponsoring a program known as Georgia Clean Day, through a grant from the federal Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and funds from the Department of Natural Resources, to collect pesticides which can no longer be legally used. In this program, targeted illegal pesticides are collected and disposed of by authorized disposal firms to prevent Food Establishment Inspections FY 1995 - FY 1999 1995 1996 1997 1998 1999 Fiscal Years inspections whenever possible. Milk safety inspectors inspect dairy facilities for compliance with health and safety regulations concerning milk and dairy products. The federal Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has selected the Georgia Milk Safety Program as one of its state pilots in the development and testing of a new electronic inspection system to eventually be used nationwide. PESTICIDE AND PESTICIDE CONTAINER DISPOSAL The Pesticide Division is coordinating a program ill illegal disposal of and environmental contamination from these outlawed pesticides. Since FY 1995, pesticide collections amounting to 421,089 pounds have been made in 38 counties. AGRICULTURE PRODUCT PROMOTION The department is continuing its activities to promote Georgia agricultural products in campaigns directed at the domestic and international markets. These campaigns use the theme "Georgia...Always In Good Taste" in publicizing and displaying Georgia 83 DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE -- Strategies and Services products at food and trade shows nationally and internationally. The department is also pursuing broadening the use of the "Georgia...Always In Good Taste" logo in concert with its product promotion efforts. The department is working with large retailers in identifying and marketing Georgia grown and processed items. FUEL AND MEASURES The Fuel and Measures Division is responsible for regulating the accuracy of all commercial weighing and measuring devices, and the quality of petroleum products. The division has upgraded the six trucks used in inspecting and testing heavy weigh scales to comply with the latest revised federal Department of Commerce standards for large weigh scale testing. The division's petroleum fuel and antifreeze inspection and testing outfits now inspect nearly 7,100 service stations and test approximately 15,500 petroleum fuel and antifreeze samples annually. STRUCTURAL PEST CONTROL The Structural Pest Control Program regulates fIrms, certifIed operators and employees involved in supplying household pest control services for controlling ants, roaches and other insects, along with wood destroying organisms such as termites, wood destroying beetles and wood destroying fungi. Program staff also conduct inspections of dwellings and products treated for these pests. These inspections verify that the dwellings and products have been properly treated for the pest(s) in question. ANIMAL PROTECTION The department enforces the Animal Protection Act which requires pet industry operators (i.e. pet dealers/brokers, breeders, animal shelters, kennel operators, etc.) to satisfy a variety of standards before being issued an operating license. The Act's purposes are to prevent unhealthy pets from being sold to the public, and to protect animals from abuse or neglect while they are awaiting sale. Inspectors also enforce federal laws regarding the use of controlled drugs for euthanasia at animal shelters, and monitor federal certifIcates of veterinary inspection and rabies inoculation records. The 10 inspectors assigned to this licensing and enforcement program inspect over 2,200 establishments and respond to nearly 400 complaints annually.

The One Georgia Fund will provide a combination of grants and loans to Georgia communities as assistance in attracting business, facilitating business expansions, and developing infrastructure to support economic development. $4,475,000 in local assistance grants for the following projects: the restoration of the Rylander Theater in Americus ($450,000); revitalization of the Martin Luther King, Jr. Boulevard in Atlanta ($100,000); the construction of a conference center for Valdosta/Lowndes County ($750,000); the Thunder Road/NASCAR Hall of Fame in Dawsonville ($500,000); the Lee Street Resource Center in Pierce County ($125,000); the Hartwell Conference Center and necessary water treatment facilities ($1,000,000); planning for a DeKalb County cultural center ($50,000); restoration of the Pulaski County Courthouse ($400,000); redevelopment initiative for South Cobb County ($1,000,000); and construction of a soccer complex in Stone Mountain for DeKalb County ($100,000). GEORGIA ENVIRONMENTAL FACILITIES AUTHORITY $10,000,000 in tobacco funding is provided within the One Georgia Fund for use by the Georgia Environmental Facilities Authority in providing low interest loans to communities for water and sewer systems. $218,064 in state funds for regional project grants is eliminated from the Georgia Environmental Facilities Authority because these grants will become part of the One Georgia Fund.

The department serves as the Governor's representative to local communities and local government associations in matters dealing with local and regional community development issues and housing issues. Community development and technical assistance are provided to local governments primarily through the divisions of Business and Financial Assistance, Planning and Environmental Management, External Affairs, Housing and Finance, and Community Services. Housing assistance is provided through Housing Finance. FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE The department provides economic development and community investment assistance to local governments through administration of a number of grant programs. The federally funded Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) supports several programs that assist Georgia's communities. The CDBG Employment Incentive Program (EIP) funds projects that result in new or retained jobs for low- and moderate-income persons. Also through the EIP, Georgia communities have established Revolving Loan Fund (RLF) programs. RLFs provide loans to local start-up and expansion businesses which provide a variety of services to help local communities improve their quality of life and that provide important employment opportunities, particularly for lowand moderate-income people. Regular competitive grants, the majority of CDBG projects, fund public facility projects that primarily benefit low- and moderate-income persons. These projects can include the extension of water lines, installment of sewer, construction of curbs and gutters, and other public infrastructure improvements. CDBG has also funded housing rehabilitation projects and the construction of community facilities such as health centers and senior centers. The state funded Regional Economic Business Assistance Grant (REBA) Program provides flexible and timely financial assistance to economic development projects that create or retain jobs. The department grants awards for direct economic development assistance based on 8 criteria: jobs created (or retained); total private capital investment; economic impact on the state, regional and community tax base; degree of local commitment; consistency with local and regional development goals and objectives; project impact; reasonableness of cost estimates; and assessment of criticality of state assistance to the retention and recruitment of companies. The department seeks the advice of other state agencies such as the Department of Industry, Trade and Tourism (DITT) before making the fmal assessment of projects eligible for REBA grant funds. Since 1994, 124 projects totaling over $32 million have been funded through REBA. RURAL DEVELOPMENT Governor Barnes' FY 2001 Budget reflects his commitment to assist rural Georgia with its development needs. The Governor has dedicated one-third of the revenues from the tobacco settlement to economic development efforts benefiting rural Georgia. The Governor's One Georgia Fund, to be housed in the Georgia Housing and Finance Authority (GHFA), will utilize these proceeds to provide a combination of grants and loans to Georgia communities to assist them in their economic and community development efforts. The Governor's FY 2001 Budget includes $63,082,213 for the fund. The One Georgia Fund will provide assistance to rural communities in two broad areas: business development and infrastructure projects. The amount and form of state assistance to a community will depend on the nature of the project and the wealth of the community. Recognizing the importance of recruiting companies to provide jobs in rural Georgia, Governor Barnes has initially provided $10 million in tobacco funds within the One Georgia Fund to facilitate the location and expansion of firms in rural Georgia. Financial assistance will be provided only in instances where a project would not come about in the absence of the assistance. In addition, to be eligible for funding, a project's benefits must exceed its costs. The infrastructure and capacity building portion of the fund is centered on the principle that Georgia's communities must be empowered to help themselves. While providing funds to assist communities with economic development, the fund also requires that communities be actively helping themselves in order to be eligible for infrastructure and capacity-building assistance. In order to be eligible for this funding, the region in which a community is located must be certified by a new Regional Certification Program. The program includes a set of straightforward, objective criteria that will serve as a guideline for communities in measuring their preparedness for economic development. The regional representatives of DCA and DITT will be available to assist communities in achieving certification. This fund will make available fmancial assistance for hard and soft projects that enhance the capacity of a III DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNITY AFFAIRS -- Strategies and Services community for economic development. Projects to implement regional technology strategies and regional economic development strategies of the Regional Advisory Councils (RAC's) will be eligible for funding. In addition, community- specific infrastructure and capacity- building assistance will be available. Funding for projects in Georgia's rural areas will be provided from tobacco settlement proceeds housed in GHFA. Funding for business development and infrastructure projects in urban areas will be provided using state funds (REBA, RAP, and the Technology Action Fund in DITT). The department also houses the State Office of Rural Development, which was created in 1987 to provide support to the State Rural Development Advisory Committee. Although the Committee fell dormant in the early 1990s, Governor Barnes recreated this body as the Georgia Rural Development Council in August 1999 to address the needs, problems, and opportunities of Georgia's rural areas. With the Lieutenant Governor serving as chairman, the Council will once again serve as the central focus for rural economic development activities and other issues of importance to rural Georgia. The department will once again provide support to the Council through its Office of Rural Development. REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT In recent years, the Department of Community Affairs has focused attention on the many community problems that transcend city and county boundaries. The department has addressed these issues by providing fmandal and technical assistance to Georgia's communities. In the area of fmancial assistance, the targeted regional assistance grant program was created in FY 1998 for multi-county or regional projects. As of September 1999, 15 projects totaling almost $3.5 million have been funded through this program. In an effort to strengthen the state's support for community and economic development, the department partnered with DITT in FY 1999 to provide more technical assistance and state resources for regional and rural development. Regional development teams consisting of 2 DCA positions in each of 11 planning regions outside of Atlanta were implemented to assist communities in identifying state resources, - to facilitate regional or multi-governmental projects, and to provide technical assistance and training to local governments in community leadership development. A Regional Advisory Council drawn from local government and business leaders in each region advises each regional team. LOCAL ASSISTANCE GRANTS The department has broad authority to provide grants and serves as the administrative agent for projects placed in DCA's budget by the Governor and General Assembly for local governments and school boards. The Governor has recommended Local Assistance Grant funds for 4 projects in the Amended FY 2000 budget. Three of the projects support tourism in 3 areas of the stateAugusta, Savannah, and Bainbridge. The first recommendation provides $10,000,000 to the City of Augusta for a variety of projects designed to increase tourism and economic activity. These funds are expected to leverage an additional $40,500,000 in local, private and other funds. The Governor's second Local Assistance Grant recommendation in the Amended FY 2000 budget provides $8,955,000 to the City of Savannah for a number of tourism projects, including restoration activities at the State Railroad Museum, maintenance and repairs at the local visitor's information center, the implementation of the Martin Luther King, Jr. Boulevard Revitalization Plan, and the rehabilitation of existing trolleys for use on River Street. There are also 112 matching funds for a federal mass transit grant in the Department of Transportation's budget that will fund a water taxi. When local government and private funding sources are taken into consideration, the total cost of all projects is estimated to be $23,470,000. The third tourism project is a local assistance grant that provides $1,554,600 to construct the Southwest Georgia Welcome Center in Bainbridge, which will be owned and operated locally. Finally, the Governor's Amended FY 2000 budget recommendation includes $7,000,000 for a Governor's Education Reform Study Commission pilot project to help fund the construction of the Coweta Central Education Center. This center provides for a three-way partnership among the Coweta School System, local businesses and the Department of Technical and Adult Education in delivering both secondary and postsecondary technical education at one location. HOUSING ASSISTANCE The Housing and Finance Division of the Department of Community Affairs administers programs aimed at increasing the number of fIrst time homeowners in Georgia. The state and federally funded HOME programs offer qualified fIrst time homebuyers low interest loans and down payment assistance. In addition, this program offers multifamily housing assistance to encourage developers to increase the number of low-income residential rental developments they build or rehabilitate. Developers can obtain public and private fmancing from a number of sources including the HOME Investment Partnerships Program, Low Income Housing Tax Credits, and Georgia Housing Trust Fund monies. The HOME program requires a state match of $1 for each $4 in federal funds. In the amended FY 2000 budget, the Governor recommended an additional $448,534 DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNITY AFFAIRS -- Strategies and Services in state funds to match an increase in federal HOME program funds designated for receipt by the state. This amount has been incorporated into the adjusted base for the department in FY 2001. The department also administers the federally funded Stewart B. McKinney Homeless Assistance Act programs and the state funded Georgia Housing Trust Fund for the Homeless programs. These state and federal programs aid homeless shelters and agencies with assisting the state's homeless with adequate housing. RENTAL ASSISTANCE Another housing assistance area is the Housing and Urban Development, Section 8 program. The department administers this program in 149 of 159 counties, providing low-income families with quality affordable rental housing. The program is administered through regional offices in Albany, Athens, Carrollton, Eastman, and Waycross. Rent subsidies are provided to landlords who agree to maintain their rental properties at the required Housing Quality Standards and to rent to qualified low-income families. The Family Self-Sufficiency program is an effort to reduce participant dependency on Section 8 and other public support. Public and private sector resources provide education, counseling, job placement assistance, job training and other supportive services to help participants become self sufficient. GEORGIA ENVIRONMENTAL FACILITIES AUTHORITY The Georgia Environmental Facilities Authority (GEFA) provides low interest loans to local governments for water supply and wastewater treatment facilities. In GEFA's 13 years of operation, the authority has provided fmancial assistance to 221 cities, 59 counties and 18 authorities throughout the state. Although GEFA has provided over $345 million in water and sewer loans to Georgia localities, the program has never had a default. This year, the Governor is recommending $10 million in tobacco funds to continue state support for the loan program. The use of these funds will be targeted towards rural areas of the state. This installment of $10 million will help maintain a revolving loan fund for the Authority with a guaranteed repayment stream of $20 million. This repayment stream will insure that Georgia communities will always have funds available to address necessary water and sewer infrastructure needs. In addition to state funds, the Authority administers the disbursement of federal energy program funds and federal drinking water funds to assist Georgia communities. The FY 2001 recommendation includes $3 million in G.O. bonds for the remediation and removal of stateowned fuel storage tanks on stateowned land. This is one installment in a projected $25 million program necessary to prevent long-term pollution problems and meet federal requirements. The state has already met federal requirements for the replacement and upgrade or closure of storage tanks by December 1998. Georgia must now comply with current law that states closed tanks must be removed and sites remediated within 12 months of closing. Due to the abundance of tanks the state closed, the Environmental Protection Division is allowing flexibility on the deadline as long as a viable program is in place to address the issue. At present, of the total 2,150 tanks on state-owned land, 253 have already been removed, 489 are in compliance and will be retained, and 1408 remain to be removed and remediated. An additional $500,000 in state general funds is recommended in the amended FY 2000 budget for the removal of state-owned fuel storage tanks on non-state-owned land. While the state is responsible for the clean-up of these tanks according to federal law, the use of general obligation funds for these projects is not possible. 113 GEORGIA REGIONAL TRANS- PORTATION AUTHORITY The Georgia Regional Transportation Authority (GRTA) was created by the General Assembly in 1999 at the urging of Governor Barnes. The Governor has said that he formed GRTA to ensure that metropolitan Atlanta can sustain its economic growth while maintaining the excellent quality of life that has made the area so attractive to businesses and workers. The authority, which is led by a 15-member board of directors, is charged with combating traffic congestion, air pollution and poorly planned development in the 13- county Atlanta region that is currently designated as a "non-attainment" area under the federal Clean Air Act. GRTA's main role will be to review, approve, and help implement transportation plans for the region that will bring the region into compliance with air quality standards. If other regions of the state are designated as "non-attainment" areas, they would then also fall under GRTA's purview. The $3,000,000 appropriated by the General Assembly in FY 2000 represents the authority's first annual operating budget. Since July I, 1999, the authority has been busy filling staff positions, including that of the executive director, and establishing its operations. In the amended FY 2000 budget, Governor Barnes recommended $302,139 to provide 3 months' funding for 2 positions along with increased operating expenses, computer charges, real estate rentals and equipment. The amended FY 2000 budget also recommended increased per diem, fees and contract funds to assist the authority in determining its information support needs, to review federal rules and regulations relating to its mission, to perform bank bidding services, and to provide independent expertise on a variety of transportation planning and development issues. The Governor has also recommended $650,000 in the amended FY 2000 budget to contract DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNITY AFFAIRS -- Strategies and Services planning, engineering and program management functions related to the initiation of passenger rail service in Georgia. These funds are complemented by an additional $650,000 that has been recommended in the amended FY 2000 budget for the Department of Transportation. The use of these funds will be coordinated by the Georgia Regional Transportation Authority, the Department of Transportation and the Georgia Rail Passenger Authority through an inter-agency Program Management Team, bringing the dream of passenger rail service into reality. The amended FY 2000 budget contains $5,400,000 in capital outlay funds for projects related to transportation in the metropolitan Atlanta region. These funds will be used to purchase buses for the Clayton County Transit System (to be operated locally), to conduct a study on the implementation of a regional bus system, to conduct Phase I circulation studies of the Cumberland/Galleria and Perimeter Center areas, to study rail transit between the Cumberland Mall area and the Arts Center in midtown Atlanta, to purchase the SMARTRAQ transportation and land use modeling/planning tool, and to purchase vans for a regional van pool. The van pool represents one of the quickest possible responses to the metro region's air quality problems, as it will be possible to purchase vans and begin operation of the van pool prior to the start of the next ozone season in the summer of2000. The FY 2001 budget recommends an additional $1,679,746 to assist the authority in gearing up to meet the challenges of its legislative mandate. Of this amount, $552,341 would be used to fund 4 new authority positions-2 transit specialists, a contract compliance/ grants specialist, and a transportation planner/engineer. The FY 2001 budget also recommends an additional $356,000 in per diem, fees and contract funds for general professional services and a variety of transportation, air quality and GIS studies. 114 DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNITY AFFAIRS Results-Based Budgeting Program Summaries COMMUNITY INVESTMENT PURPOSE: To strengthen Georgia communities by fostering economic development andjob growth.

The agency was established by an act of the General Assembly that consolidated four agencies involved in the purchasing, planning, and regulation of health care in the state of Georgia. DCH was a response to the growing concern about the fragmentation of healthcare delivery at the state level. Via consolidation, DCH is expected to maximize its health care purchasing power and create administrative efficiency in the state's health care system. The department is also charged with planning for coverage for the estimated 1.3 million citizens that currently do not have health insurance. The major divisions comprising DCH include the Division of Medical Assistance, the Division of Health Planning, and the Division of Public Employee Health Benefits. Also, parts of DCH are offices targeting specific populations (Office of Women's Health and the Office of Minority Health) and regional health care issues (Office of Primary Care and Office of Rural Health). A nine-member board governs the agency. There are three Boards administratively attached to the department, including, the Composite State Board of Medical Examiners, which licenses physicians; the Georgia Board for Physician Workforce, which provides financial aid to medical schools and residency training programs; and the State Medical Education Board, which administers medical scholarships and loans to promote medical practice in rural areas. DIVISION OF MEDICAL ASSISTANCE The largest division in the department, the Division of Medical Assistance administers the Medicaid program, which provides health care for persons who are aged, blind, disabled, or indigent. State and federal dollars fund Medicaid with the federal government paying for about 60 percent of health care costs. A broad array of health care services is available to address the needs of those covered by the program, including hospital, physician, pharmacy, and nursing home services. The Division of Medical Assistance also administers the state's Indigent Care Trust Fund (ICTF), which completed its ninth year of operation in 1999. The ICTF reimburses hospitals serving a disproportionate share of medically indigent Georgians. In January 1999, the division launched the PeachCare for Kids program, Georgia's version of the federal Children's Health Insurance Program. PeachCare provides medical and dental coverage for children whose parents' income is too high to qualify for Medicaid, but who cannot afford private health insurance. Current eligibility allows children in families with incomes between 185% and 200% of the federal poverty level to participate. A modest premium of $7 per month is required for children over the age of five. Families pay no more than $15 per month in premiums if they have more than two children. DIVISION OF HEALTH PLANNING Formerly, the State Health Planning Agency, Georgia's health planning program was originally established to contain health care costs by avoiding unnecessary duplication of services, equipment and facilities. The division helps to enforce quality-of-care standards and encourages providers to assume a share of responsibilities for the health care needs of low-income citizens. The division also administers the Certificate-of-Need (CON) program, which approves the expansion of health care services and facilities. The Health Planning Review Board (administratively attached to the Department of Administrative Services) conducts appeal hearings on CON decisions. Additionally, the division works with the Health Strategies Council to develop policies for health care services. DIVISION OF PUBLIC EMPLOYEE HEALTH BENEFITS The Division of Public Employees Health Benefits administers the State Health Benefit Plan, which provides health insurance coverage to state employees, teachers, retirees and their dependents at an annual cost of approximately $1.3 billion. AUTHORITY Title XIX of the Social Security Act; Title 31-5A, Official Code of Georgia Annotated. Populations Served by Department of Community Health State Employees 18% PeachCare for Kids 2% Uninsured 41% Medicaid 39% 132 DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNITY HEALTH Strategies and Services The Department of Community Health was created to take advantage of economies of scale in purchasing health care and to coordinate and improve access to health care. The department manages over $5 billion in health benefits expenditures in an ever-changing health care environment. While assuring health care coverage for the nearly two million Georgians covered by Medicaid and the State Health Benefit Plan, the department must also reduce the number of uninsured in the state. These goals are addressed through several budget initiatives. EXPANDING MEDICAID ELIGIBILITY Medicaid served 1.24 million Georgians in FY 1999 with benefits expenditures totaling almost $3.08 billion, an average of $2,477 per person. The department has three initiatives that address eligibility expansion in the Medicaid program. First, raising the income limits for Medicaid eligibility for pregnant women and infants from 200 % of the federal poverty level ($33,408 for a family of four) to 235% ($39,254) would allow more than 2,000 additional uninsured pregnant women and infants to be served. Second, the agency has applied for a family planning waiver to provide family planning services to post-partum women for one year after delivery. The Department can take advantage of 90% federal funding to help offset the cost of this initiative. By helping women plan future pregnancies, birth outcomes are improved and infant mortality declines. Third, the agency is pursuing the expansion of transitional Medicaid for persons once eligible for traditional Medicaid and TANF coverage's. Although loss of TANF eligibility typically results from an increase in income, transitional eligibles still have a hard time affording health insurance. Transitional Medicaid currently is available for one year. The Department would like to expand it to two years, the maximum allowable under federal guidelines. PEACHCARE FOR KIDS PeachCare for Kids has far exceeded expectations in its first year of operation by enrolling more than 58,000 children. Uninsured children may be eligible if their families' incomes are too high for Medicaid but are at or below 200 % of the federal poverty level. Raising the income limit to 235 % of poverty would cover an additional 11,000 children. Most PeachCare kids come from working families who cannot afford health insurance. STABILIZING THE STATE HEALTH BENEFIT PLAN The plan experienced considerable operating losses in FY 1997 and FY 1998 due to higher medical costs and an increase in plan use. By the end of FY 1999, operating losses had reduced the reserve funds below acceptable levels. This year, the plan has a projected operating deficit as well. In response to the current situation and to forecasted operating losses, the department has taken several steps to put the plan on sound [mancial footing. These steps include preparing a new Preferred Provider Organization (PPO) option to be offered in July 2000, securing more competitive pricing from hospitals, instituting greater oversight of contractors, and implementing stronger internal fiscal controls. REDUCING THE WAITING LIST FOR COMMUNITY SERVICES More than 12,000 people with functional impairments, including mental retardation and severe physical disabilities, are waiting for home or community care. Home and community services, which assist with personal hygiene, meals, daytime activities and respite for family caregivers, are often more effective and less costly than institutional care. For example, in FY 1999, more than 18,000 elderly and disabled people were served in community waiver programs at an average per recipient cost of under $9,000 compared to more than $14,000 for nursing home care. TOBACCO SETTLEMENT As a participating state in the master settlement agreement with five cigarette manufacturers, the state of Georgia is slated to receive over $4 billion in payments throughout the next 25 years. Planning for the use of this funding is made more difficult by uncertainty about funding levels, which can change based on the volume of domestic tobacco sales and the participating manufacturers' market share. Regarding the use of tobacco funds, the Board of Community Health endorses a variety of proposals aimed at improving health care and well being; reducing the toll of tobacco related illness; and maximizing the use of tobacco dollars to leverage additional funding. In addition, the board endorses the recommendations of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and many community groups that emphasize the importance of community programs, to reduce tobacco use, as well as cessation programs, counter-marketing and surveillance and evaluation. 133 DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNITY HEALTH Results-Based Budgeting Program Summaries VALUE-BASED HEALTH CARE PURCHASING PURPOSE: To ensure access to quality, cost effective health care services for Medicaid eligible Georgians and state employees by purchasing services from qualified providers and monitoring the accessibility and quality of services received.

More than 41,250 of these offenders are serving prison sentences. More than 135,600 offenders are on probation, 4,200 whom are in residential programs. The mission of the DOC is to protect the public and staff by managing offenders either in a safe and secure environment or through effective community supervision according to their needs and risks. In collaboration with the community and other agencies, DOC provides programs that offer offenders the opportunity to become responsible, productive, law-abiding citizens. As part of its strategic plan, the department has developed the following priorities: Provide adequate prison system capacity. Provide the highest level of community-based supervision to those probationers who pose the greatest risk. Operate offender programs that reduce risk to staff and public by stressing offender work, discipline, accountability and responsibility for harm done. Support victim's rights regarding notification, restitution and impact of crime. Improve and increase linkages with other agencies. Continue public/private partnerships and outsourcing. Find and implement better methods and technological tools to communicate and share information to manage better. Enhance efforts to recruit, maintain and train highly qualified staff. Ensure effective and efficient operations. DEPARTMENT OPERATIONS Incarceration offers a highly structured, secure environment, which removes from the community those offenders who pose a high risk. DOC provides legally mandated services in the areas of physical and mental health, counseling, education, vocational training, chaplain services and recreation. DOC requires offenders in its facilities to work to support the system and the community. Inmates and probationers work on prison farms; in food preparation, laundry, and construction; in facility and landscape maintenance; and doing factory work in Correctional Industries' manufacturing plants. The types of DOC institutions include: State Prisons (38). These institutions are typically reserved for felony offenders with more than 1 year of incarceration to serve. County Prisons (24). The state pays a subsidy to county institutions to house and supervise state inmates. Inmates assigned to the county prisons typically work on roadway or construction projects for the county in which they are housed. Inmate Boot Camps, Probation Boot Camps, Probation Detention Centers (22). These 3 programs offer a short-term, intensive incarceration period. The boot camp program enforces strict discipline and military protocol. Transitional Centers (6). These community-based centers are designed to allow offenders nearing the end of their prison term to prepare for life in the community. DOC requires offenders to have jobs in the local community, pay room and board to the center and support their families. Probation Diversion Centers (17). Judges may sentence offenders to diversion centers as an alternative to prison. Like transitional center residents, offenders in the diversion centers work and pay room and board, restitution, fines, and family support. Probation is designed to enforce judicial sentences in the community. The Statewide Probation Act of 1956 laid the legal foundation for the Probation Division. The law provides for standardized supervision by sworn peace officers of those offenders sentenced to probation, either directly from court on a straight probation sentence, or after completing a specified term of imprisonment on a split sentence. The mission of the Probation Division is to serve the courts and to collaborate with other criminal justice agencies in protecting the public by effectively enforcing sentences of probation. Probationers are required to be employed and to pay restitution, fees, fmes, and court costs. Many probationers are also required to perform community service, unpaid labor for the local community. Probationers are supervised with increasing levels of intensity in accordance with the risk they pose to the community. Requirements at these varied supervision levels may include adherence to a curfew, wearing an electronic device to monitor movements, drug testing, and home and job visits by the probation officer. AUTHORITY Titles 9, 42 and 77 of the Official Code of Georgia Annotated. 147 DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS Strategies and Services Adults committed to the Department of Corrections (DOC) have more than doubled over the past 10 years. Georgia's prison commitments for FY 1998 to FY 2002 are projected to grow at an average rate of 6% annually. Georgia's prison population at the end of FY 2000 is projected to total 44,492 inmates. BED-SPACE MANAGEMENT The Department of Corrections continues efforts to steward its bedspace and funding resources. Initiatives include: Maintaining the occupancy rate of 99% in state prisons. Increase private prison capacity form 3,000 to 4,500. Increase county work camp capacity by over 1,300 beds. Increase transitional center beds by 600. Expand two existing state prisons by 384 beds. The FY 200 I budget recommendation includes partial year operating funds for 625 diversion beds and 700 transition beds. The Governor recommends that the department consider the privatization of these facilities. These facilities should only be privatized if it is cost effective and mission oriented. If these facilities are operated by the state, the Governor recommends that the department look for existing building and facilities to renovate or lease. The Governor in the FY 2000 Amended Budget recommended $22,605,000 in total funds including $5,105,000 state matching funds to construct 1,043 inmate beds to be operated by the department. These beds would be available in FY 2002 to address the growing prison population. These beds consist of 175 expansion beds at existing diversion centers; the replacement of two 50bed diversion centers with 100-bed facilities; construction of two 192-bed probation detention centers to be located in Long and Murray Counties, and two 192-bed parole revocation centers to be located in Jeff Davis and Stephens Counties. In addition to these new facilities, the Governor is recommending the reorganization of the departments current allocated G.O. Bonds to provide for a 200-bed expansion to the Whitworth Parole Center. In summary, the Governor is recommending an additional 2,568 new beds in the FY 2000 amended and FY 2001 budgets. These beds consist of 900 diversion center beds, 384 detention center beds, 584 parole revocation beds and 700 transition beds. This plan will provide a less expensive bed for the low-end offender; while at the same time provide additional hard cells for the violent offender. This plan will increase the bed capacity on the front end and the back end in order to meet the growing commitments to the correctional system In addition to recommending an additional 2,368 new beds, 6,104 beds are either already opened or are in the process of opening. These are beds authorized by the Governor in the 1999 legislative session. These include bed expansions at the following state prisons: Smith (192beds), Washington (I 92-beds), Augusta Medical (384-beds), Macon (384-beds), Coastal (384-beds), and Walker (I 92-beds). Contract prison beds to open are Charlton (1,000beds), Coffee (1,000 beds) and Wheeler (1,000 beds). A transitional center (200-beds) is recommended by the Governor to open in Savannah. Also during FY 2000, a total of 576 An Increasing Adult Inmate Population Leads to More Beds 50,000 48,000 46,000 44,000 42,000 40,000 38,000 36,000 34,000 32,000 30,000 1996 1997 1998 1999 Fiscal Year 2000 2001 _ _ Actual/Planned Beds 148 -Population DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS - Strategies and Services detention beds will open in Houston, Paulding and Terrell counties The Department of Corrections will have available 47,239, inmate beds by the end of FY 2001 to serve the growing inmate population. JAIL BACKLOG County jails are operated by local authorities and are used for pre-trial detention and post conviction confmement pending pick-up by DOC. The department pays a jail subsidy rate of $20 per day for inmates that have been sentenced to a state prison and are awaiting pick-up in excess of 15 days after the department has received a sentencing package. At the beginning of FY 1999, Georgia's jail backlog for individuals sentenced to state prison stood at 3,309. By the end of FY 1999, it had fallen to 939. The Board of Pardons and Paroles uses county jails to house parolees who have violated parole. County jails are also used to house probationers who have violated probation. Probationers, unless revoked to the Department of Corrections, are under the jurisdiction of the local judiciary and not the department. The judge decides whether the probationer is jailed or not. Code Section 17-10-1 of the Official Code of Georgia Annotated designates the local county jail as one of the options the judge can use to incarcerate a probation violator. The county is not paid a subsidy for a probation violator. During September of 1999, the Georgia Jail Summary reported the number of individuals in county jails at 27,751. The number consisted of 17,644 awaiting trial, 3,873 county inmates, 3,473 other inmates and 3,611 sentenced to state prisons or parole / probation issues. Of the 3,611 state inmates, 607 accounted for inmates on the departments jail backlog count. The remaining 3,004 accounted for parole and probation issues. During FY 2000 and FY 2001 the department will be opening the authorized bed expansions, which should sustain or reduce the current level (700) of inmates in county jails sentenced to DOC.

Using an offender classification system and this supervision model helps insure that those offenders presenting the greatest risk to Georgia's citizens will receive the greatest share of the supervision resources. The implementation of the RiskBased Supervision Model came in response to a changing probation population. In 1985 the make-up of the population was 47% felons and 53% misdemeanants, by 1990 felons made up 63% of the population with the remaining 37% misdemeanants. The June 1998 probation population consisted of 78% felons and 22% misdemeanants. The change in the probation population has required the Probation Division to prioritize the allocation of its field resources. The model sets caseload capacity limits for maximum and high levels of supervision. Restricted caseload size will allow officers to spend more time in the field, making unscheduled visits to offenders' homes and places of business, enforcing strict probation conditions, and holding offenders accountable for their actions. Frequency of probation officer contact with the probationer is emphasized. Minimum contact requirements have been set for each classification level. The model also establishes a Specialized Caseload category composed of offenders who have committed sexual crimes against children or crimes of family violence. The supervision for these offenders includes home searches for illicit sexual materials, registration with local law enforcement, and monitored treatment attendance. Specially trained officers supervise these caseloads. The goal is to protect victims and to help prevent any additional crimes against new victims. EDUCATION The Department of Corrections currently has 21 Georgia Statewide Academic and Medical System (GSAMS) sites providing over 15,000 hours of instruction to inmates. The Department of Corrections, utilizing the GSAMS, has contracted with Thomas Technical Institute to provide GED classes at all sites, introduce computer literacy to the inmates, to conduct vocational programs for the Residential Substance Abuse Treatment program and On the Job Training for work detail supervisors.

The department achieves these objectives through its 4 components: Office of the Adjutant General, Air National Guard, the Army National Guard and the State Defense Force. Using these components, the department operates and manages approximately 1,200 training, maintenance, and logistics army facilities statewide. GEORGIA AIR NATIONAL GUARD The role of the Georgia Air National Guard is to provide fully equipped, fully trained combat units which are prepared to respond to state or national emergencies. The activation!deactivation, organization, administration, training, equipping and housing of its units as well as the evaluation of its wartime capability are mandated responsibilities. GEORGIA ARMY NATIONAL GUARD The Georgia Army National Guard is responsible for maintaining a level of operational readiness, which allows for immediate and effective response to state or national emergencies, civil disturbances, and natural disasters. OFFICE OF THE ADJUTANT GENERAL The role of the Office of the Adjutant General is to provide command and control of the entire organization as well as centralized administrative support for the department. The Adjutant General also serves as the state's director of the Selective Service System. STATE DEFENSE FORCE The role of the State Defense Force is to serve as a caretaker administration in the event of a full mobilization. AUTHORITY Title 38, Official Code of Georgia Annotated. 158 DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE Strategies and Services FACILITIES OPERATIONS AND MAINTENANCE The Facilities Operations and Maintenance program is the largest program within the agency. This program provides the foundation, which supports the infrastructure of the Georgia National Guard. The Department of Defense currently manages approximately 1,200 buildings and facilities throughout the state, the majority of which are licensed for use by the state. Most of these facilities are 100% federally funded for operations and maintenance, and a significant number require 25% matching state funds. The industrial type facilities and the heavy equipment repair shops fall into this category. The balance of the facilities is comprised of 72 National Guard armories and a number of office buildings at headquarters. These facilities are 100% state supported as required by law. The Governor has recommended $643,000 in FY 2000 for roof replacements for armories and other repair work that will be eligible for federal matching funds. In addition to the portion of the program that receives federal and state appropriations, the armories are rented as community centers, used for meetings and conferences, voting precincts, and a host of other activities. MILITARY AND COMMUNITY RELATIONS The Military Relations program provides assistance to approximately 13,000 Georgia National Guardsmen, active and retired, as well as their families, during military mobilizations. The program also provides information and assistance to retirees in order to secure for them all of the benefits and entitlements for which they legally qualify. Casualty assistance is also provided to the families of deceased guard members. STATE DEFENSE FORCE The Georgia State Defense Force provides for an organized, trained, disciplined, rapid response volunteer force and civilian relief organization in impending or actual emergencies to assure the welfare and safety of the citizens. This program provides welltrained and equipped volunteer individuals and leaders to perform duties as they may be called upon. These activities include search and rescues, which augment the ability of other agencies to perform their missions. State funds provide for minimal support. The Governor has recommended $5,000 for State Defense Force operations in FY 2001. COUNTER DRUG OPERATIONS The Georgia National Guard provides ground reconnaissance and observation support to requesting drug law enforcement agencies (DLEAs) by providing personnel and equipment necessary to perform operations for the purpose of drug interdiction and eradication. Upon request by state agencies, the guard also provides personnel to research and document information necessary to establish probable cause. Georgia National Guard personnel are also assigned to perform tasks which include but are not limited to operatio'1al planning, transportation for elements of DLEAs, assisting in information gathering, provide security and crowd control, marking and cataloging evidence found at the scene, and assisting in the dismantling of crime scenes. FACILITY ASSESSMENT From July 1, 1999 to October 1, 1999, the department conducted a thorough assessment of over 950 buildings at 81 locations, including the 72 stateowned armories. The assessment found that the needs of the various facilities fall into 3 categories: repairs and renovations; plan, design and construction; and disposition of existing property. The Governor has recommended $643,000 in the FY 2000 Amended Budget for roof replacements on 19 armories. The Governor has also recommended $3,000,000 in bonds to complete a wide range of significant maintenance, repair and infrastructure upgrades to make the armories safe, secure, code compliant and bring them to standard to adequately support unit operations. As facilities age and requirements change, new construction and the disposition of existing property is ineluctable. In the last 20 years only 3 new armories have been built; however, there are 6 design projects in progress that will meet the needs oftoday's modernized National Guard. Once the new facilities are completed, the old ones will need to be reallocated or disposed of. Though these transactions shall be complex, the benefits gained in terms of relinquishing responsibilities and expenses shall be well worth the effort. YOUTH CHALLENGE PROGRAM The Youth Challenge Program, which is operated by the Georgia National Guard, a division of the Department of Defense, provides atrisk youth between 16 to 19 years of age the opportunity to earn a High School Graduation Equivalency Degree and acquire valuable life skills. The program is based at the National Guard Training Center at Fort Stewart. Military personnel, functioning as platoon leaders and mentors, teach and train the students during the 22-week residential program that is conducted twice a year. As a complement to the military setting, students live in military type dormitories, eat in a military dining facility and participate in vigorous physical activities. During the course of the residential program, students are immersed in a military environment that stresses academic achievement, and the attainment of competency in 159 DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE - Strategies And Services basic life skills such as: establishing and maintaining [mancial credit, balancing a check book, and social interaction through community service. These necessary skills prepare the youth to lead productive lives and avoid destructive behaviors. Since the program's inception in August 1993, students have performed a cumulative 52,260 hours of community service and as the graph depicts over 93% of the students have graduated with a graduation equivalency degree. Upon graduation, the residential phase is completed and the students move into a post-residential phase, which will continue to assist the students in identifying and exploring opportunities. With continued guidance and support from mentors, student's progress is monitored for at least six months after graduation. This relationship provides the students with support while they are transitioning from the program to another productive phase in life. The average cost per student enrolled in the Youth Challenge Program is approximately $9,600. Governor Barnes has recommended $1,525,103 in state funds in FY 2001 to provide for operating expenses in support of this important program. These recommended state funds will be matched with federal matching funds of $2.8 million.

AUTHORITY Title 20 of the Official Code of Georgia Annotated. 182 STATE BOARD OF EDUCATION Strategies and Services EDUCATION REFORM In June, 1999, Governor Barnes appointed the Governor's Education Reform Study Commission (GERSC) and gave it four areas ofresponsibility: to make funding changes that would focus state dollars on instruction; to provide seamless access to all levels of public education to any citizen; to improve the climate of the public schools and the health and safety of their students; and to develop a comprehensive accountability system. GERSC has worked diligently through the summer and fall to produce a consensus among its 64 members on a wide array of initiatives that Governor Barnes will introduce to the 2000 session ofthe General Assembly. Three major themes have emerged from the Commission's work relating to students in grades K-12. One is to provide greater fmancial equity for all students. Since the passage ofQBE in 1985, the gap in resources between the wealthy and the less wealthy school systems in Georgia has widened. As a result, the ability of the less wealthy systems to provide the kind of educational opportunities their students deserve has been strained. Governor Barnes will present a variety of strategies to address this issue, from providing more resources in the funding formula to changing the way Georgia's equalization program works so that more state funds go to less wealthy systems. A second theme has been to pay more attention to students at risk of school failure. Georgia's drop-out rate remains one of the highest in the nation. Georgians' rate ofparticipation in college prep courses and in postsecondary education opportunities is getting better, but is not rising fast enough. The emphasis in the Commission that the Governor will take to the General Assembly is to focus resources on the early grades and on personnel who can catch students with problems before they get too far behind to have a reasonable chance to catch up. Governor Barnes' proposals will have innovative ways of addressing these persistent problems of fmancial equity and at-risk students. What is new to the state - and will drastically improve the success rate of his other initiatives is the Governor's accountability package. GERSC and the Governor have developed a wide- ranging and comprehensive package of proposals, including development of a student information and financial reporting system, a comprehensive student testing program that monitors student progress on the Quality Core Curriculum while it benchmarks Georgia students both nationally and internationally, a support system for schools that do not meet standards, and rewards for systems that do an outstanding job of educating their students. For the first time, data will be available that lets policy makers and the public know how well their schools are performing. The Governor's accountability proposals also include the creation of an Office of Educational Accountability (OEA) to develop the accountability system, gather and analyze the data needed to determine student and school progress, and to develop a system for the colleges and technical institutes. The OEA will be an independent agency to avoid any suggestion of influence by any educational entity or interest group, and it will report to the Governor and the people of Georgia. What will emerge from the GERSC recommendations is a different concept of education in Georgia. Technology will be employed much more intensely to make education at every level much more widely available to every Georgian. Traditional boundaries between the sectors of education - K-12, higher education, and technical institutes will blur or disappear altogether. High school students will be more able to take courses that are normally taught in technical institutes and colleges while still in high school. Traditional educational structures that have made it so difficult for non-traditional students to succeed will share responsibility for education with a much more fluid delivery system. All Georgians regardless ofcurrent educational status - will have available the educational opportunity they need to improve the quality of life for them and their families. A much more detailed description of the results of the work of the Governor and GERSC will be available from the Governor's Office in January. STUDENT ACHIEVEMENT In Georgia, as well as nationwide, the last 15 years have seen a focus on improving the nation's public schools and improving student achievement. Even though per pupil expenditures continue to increase and our efforts are focused, student achievement has not risen as fast as it should. In fact, the United States is even beginning to fall behind in areas where we once held supremacy. A 1998 report found that the United States' high school graduation rates are now trailing other developed nations, such as Poland, Sweden and South Korea. The nation is concerned that our children are not only lacking basic knowledge of reading, writing, and mathematics, but are not acquiring the critical thinking skills needed in the new millenium. Compared to the rest of the nation, just how well are Georgia's students doing? Student scores on assessment instruments are usually the "bottom line" when student achievement is discussed. Georgia's testing programs comprehensively assess students' educational achievement from 183 STATE BOARD OF EDUCATION -- Strategies and Services kindergarten through high school. The Department of Education's testing schedule includes both norm- referenced and criterion-referenced components to determine educational effectiveness. Nationally norm- referenced tests provide students, teachers, and parents with grade equivalencies and percentile ranks whereas criterion-referenced- tests yield results about learning and mastery of Georgia's Quality Core' Curriculum (QCC). The Iowa Test of Basic Skills (ITBS) is one of the assessment tools Georgia educators use. The ITBS is a battery ofgeneral achievement tests for grades 3 through 8. The tests are intended to measure how well a student has learned the basic knowledge and skills taught in elementary and middle schools, in such areas as reading and mathematics. The ITBS are norm-referenced tests designed to provide information on how well students perform in comparison to a national norm group. For example, a 3rd grade national percentile ranking of 61 in Reading reveals that 61 % of Georgia's 3rd graders are doing as well or better than the 3rd graders in the national norm group. In the past 4 years, scores in reading and mathematics have seen a steady gain or have stabilized across all 3rd grade levels. With Governor Barnes' support of programs like Reading First and the Reading Challenge after school program, which focus on reading fundamentals for all students, there is optimistic hope that this upward trend will continue and be reflected in future national percentile rankings. Further, continued lottery funding for Georgia's Voluntary Pre-Kindergarten program will prepare our youngest students for school success. We may have some distance to travel before our children reach our educational aspirations for them, but Georgia's educational system is moving them in the right direction. Governor Barnes believes in giving the many good educational initiatives we already have in place the necessary time to positively impact student achievement. Thus, Governor Barnes recommends maintaining the Reading First Program at its current funding level of $13,630,185, providing fundamental reading training and instruction to over 600 schools. In addition he recommends maintaining the current funding level of $14,000,000 for the Reading Challenge Program, providing quality after school care and reading instruction to more than 9,500 students at 241 sites. To ensure the quality and effectiveness of these reading initiatives, Governor Barnes recommends the continuation of funding to evaluate Reading First and Reading Challenge. Often touted as a crucial indicator of student achievement, the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) continues to be a yardstick held by institutions ofhigher learning to measure prospective students. Usually taken by rising high school seniors, SAT scores have increased steadily in Georgia since 1994. Georgia has implemented several state funded initiatives to encourage this steady gain in achievement. Governor Barnes continues to be a proponent of these incentives. The Governor has recommended that the state continue funding the Preliminary Scholastic Assessment Test (PSAT) for 10th grade students to "practice" for the SAT. The Governor also recognizes the importance of giving Georgia's students the opportunities to take more rigorous academic coursework. He recommends continued funding for Georgia's high school students to take more challenging courses through the Advanced Placement (AP) program and attend institutions of higher learning while in high school through participation in the Postsecondary Options (PSO) initiative. Governor Barnes is recommending $1.6 million in continuing funds for high school seniors to take AP exams and $1.5 million in lottery funds for over 5,000 students to participate in PSO. These initiatives will help Georgia students reach the Department of Education's goal of the average SAT score of "1000 by 2001." In addition to tests that compare Georgia students to others in the nation, it is vital to have a competency test that measures the students' knowledge of the state's Quality Core Curriculum (QCC). QCC standards specify the content for kindergarten through the 12th grade. The standards are the result of the Quality Basic Education (QBE) Act that includes the broad competencies expected of all students who complete public high school in Georgia. The Georgia Department of Education has completed a massive effort to update the state's QCC that has involved thousands of teachers and parents. All major academic subjects have been updated to reflect a more rigorous attention to academic achievement and mastery of basic skills. Standards of achievement are being raised in Georgia. To measure how well Georgia students will meet these new standards, 184 STATE BOARD OF EDUCATION -- Strategies and Services Governor Barnes recommends continued funding to complete the Criterion Referenced Competency Tests (CRCT). Currently in the fmal development phase, the CRCT will test Georgia students on their required core courses and then be used for diagnostic, remedial, and enrichment purposes. Governor Barnes is supporting this accountability initiative in education through recommendations in the Amended FY 00 budget. His recommendations also include funding for a web-based delivery system, designed to enable teachers and students to access test questions using a desktop computer for diagnostic and enrichment purposes (See the GERSC recommendations for specific details). KIPP ACADEMY Governor Barnes supports out-of- the-box thinking to raise teaching and learning expectations in schools serving at-risk students. He believes the Knowledge is Power Program (KIPP) is an excellent example of outof-the-box thinking with proven success ofraising the expectations and performance of at-risk students. KIPP Academy is an academically rigorous college preparatory public school for at-risk students in grades 5 through 9. KIPP engages students and their families in the program by requiring students and parents to sign a written contract that specifies attendance from 7:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Monday through Friday, 4 hours each Saturday, and 1 month each summer. The contrac! requires parents to reinforcestudents'commitment,ensure attendance, and help with 2 to 3 hours of homework each evening. In 1999, KIPP led the state of Texas in the Texas Assessment of Academic Skills (TAAS) results. 100% of students passed the math and science sections. In reading, 98% of students passed, in writing 97%, and in social studies 98%. Unlike many public schools in Texas, KIPP did not exempt any Spanish-speaking students from the taking the test. In 1999,300 students in grades 5 through 9 were enrolled in the KIPP Academy. Ninety-six percent were Hispanic or African-American and 91% were eligible for the federal free/reduced lunch program. Another compelling factor about KIPP is that the students spend 67% more time in school than other Texas public school students. Governor Barnes recommends $1,000,000 to fund a KIPP Academy in Georgia to encourage innovative practices to raise expectations and performance for at-risk students. NATIONAL BOARD CERTIFICATION After more than a decade of educational reform there is growing consensus among teachers, school administrators, and reformers that professional development and teacher training lie at the heart of efforts to improve teaching and learning in K-12 public schools. The National Board for Professional Teaching Standards created the National Board Certification process to establish high and rigorous standards for what teachers should know and be able to do and to develop a national, voluntary system to assess and certify teachers who meet these standards. Teachers who participate in the National Board Certification process help to reshape the public's perception of teaching, create more professional and rewarding relationships among teachers, and advance the knowledge base of teaching, all directly related to improving student learning. The National Board Certification process consists of two parts. First, during the school year, candidates assemble a portfolio of their teaching, composed of student work, teacher reflections on the students' work and videotapes ofclassroom activities with students. Second, the candidates spend I day during the summer at an assessment center where they are interviewed by master teachers and complete written essay examinations to determine the level of their teaching skills and mastery of subject matter. The assessment center exercises are designed to complement the portfolio and are organized around challenging teaching issues. The selfanalysis endemic to the certification process benefits students by requiring teachers to focus on academic goals and objectives that hold the promise of improving classroom practice. The entire certification process, from developing the portfolio to completing written essays, takes the better part ofa school year. Many teachers have reported spending about 200 hours on the process. In 1996, the General Assembly and Governor enacted legislation to offer fmancial incentives to teachers who choose to become nationally certified. The legislation required that nationally certified teachers receive a one-time 5% increase in their salary and be reimbursed the certification fee. In his FY 2001 budget, Governor Barnes proposes to double the one-time salary increase to 10%. He hopes to increase the number of nationally certified teachers to 1,000 within next 4 years. Before November 1999, 27 Georgia educators were National Board Certified. Thirty educators were certified in November 1999. TECHNOLOGY FOR INSTRUCTION One of the state's prime commitments has been the placement of cutting edge technology into Georgia's classrooms and schools. Since FY 1994, over $300 million in lottery funds have been appropriated to put computers, satellite dishes, and other instructional technology into Georgia's classrooms. In 1992-93, before lottery funding, only 26% of Georgia classrooms had computers and only 15% had distance learning capability. By 1999-2000,after7years of lottery funding, distance learning capability was available to 81.5% ofall classrooms, and 54.2% of classrooms had at least 1 computer connected to 185 STATE BOARD OF EDUCATION -- Strategies and Services the internet. The Internet is rapidly emerging as a powerful learning tool for both students and teachers. Using the Internet, students in the most remote schools can access vast amounts of information and knowledge not available any other way or take academic courses not offered at their high school. Teachers can access other placed new pressures on teachers to become adept at using these tools to improve student achievement. To aid the integration of technology into Georgia's classrooms and to introduce teachers to the many educational uses of technology, the Governor is recommending continuing support for Educational Technology Specialist. (See the GERSC recommendations for Lottery-Funded Technology & Equipment 120.0 FY 1994 - 2001 (proposed) 100.0 80.0 'c": :'s5 60.0 40.0 20.0 0.0 FY 94 FY 95 FY 96 FY 97 FY 98 FY 99 FY 00 FY 01 teachers' lesson plans to improve instructional practices. Governor Barnes has demonstrated his commitment to using technology to expand learning opportunities by recommending $477,000 to expand the Georgia Virtual High School project and $1,512,500 to expand the Georgia Learning Connections, the web-based curriculum and instructional resource for Georgia educators. TECHNOLOGY TRAINING INITIATIVES Georgia's initiative to implement technology in the classrooms has specific details). It is paramount that our teachers have the necessary knowledge in the use and application of computers and advanced electronic technology. Research has begun to show that teachers trained to use technology to improve instruction can positively impact their students' achievement. Governor Barnes is continuing the state's commitment to provide technology resources for the classroom by recommending $25 per FTE, for a total of $34,406,875 in FY 2001 lottery funds. OTHER TECHNOLOGY INITIATIVES In 1994, Georgia began allocating lottery monies to fund a K-12 statewide technology initiative. The program was designed to enhance classroom instruction and enable students to be competitive in the workforce of the twenty-first century. Since 1994, Georgia has been recognized as a national leader in funding the development of a K-12 technology infrastructure and providing training opportunities for educators. Governor Barnes recommends $10,000,000 in Amended FY 00 lottery funds to build on this success by piloting a wireless computer project in up to 10 public elementary and middle schools through out the state. The project will be designed to enable teachers to use technology to improve their students' learning experiences and to facilitate communication between teachers, students, and parents. FORMULA FUNDING INCREASES Georgia is one of the fastest growing states in the US, and significant resources have to be expended each year merely to provide funding for the increase in new students who enroll. For FY 2001, the Governor recommends $57,470,120 to fund enrollment increases of an estimated 18,870 students over the original count in FY 2000. OTHER K-12 IMPROVEMENTS Governor Barnes is recommending $11,188,500 in FY 2001 lottery funds to purchase vocational lab and agricultural education equipment in 50 high schools and 31 middle school implementing new programs. This recommendation supports the state's elimination of the general education diploma, requiring instead a college or technology/career prep diploma. This funding will assist school systems in offering quality vocational programs which meet industry standards. 186 STATE BOARD OF EDUCATION -- Strategies and Services To encourage excellence in Georgia teachers and reward them for their accomplishments the Governor recommends $2,254,000 in Amended to fund increased participation in the Pay for Performance program. The need for these additional awards proves that Georgia teachers will give the extra time and attention necessary to increase student achievement. Governor Bames is also recommending $9,699,393 in general state funds to implement an FTE-based funding formula for the 24 Psychoeducational Centers. FY 2001 will be the third year oftransitioning to a new funding formula. Prior to the FTE-based formula, each center received grant funding which did not correlate well to students served or services delivered. GEORGIA VOLUNTARY PRE- KINDERGARTEN PROGRAM Georgia is proud to have the largest and most comprehensive prekindergarten program serving 4-year olds and their families of any state in the country. The Georgia Pre-K program continues to be a model for the rest of the country by successfully combining services from public and private providers of early childhood education in order to provide a high quality pre-kindergarten experience for every Georgia family that wants it. A recent study by the Council for School Performance found that compared to results from other national and state studies that used the same rating scale, Georgia pre-kindergarten classrooms are higher quality than preschool classrooms in other states. In addition, another study shows that teachers and parents continue to fmd that Pre-K students are entering kindergarten "ready to learn". Kindergarten teachers found that Pre-K students were better prepared than those who had not enrolled in Pre-K programs in 7 of 8 skill levels, including pre-reading and pre-math skills. The Governor is maintaining the commitment to the Pre-Kindergarten Program through his recommendation of $232,625,928 in lottery funding to serve 63,500 4-year-olds and their families in FY 2001. This represents an increase of 1,000 students over the 62,500 4-year-olds served in FY 2000. 70,000 60,000 Pre-K Students Served FY 1993 - 2001 (proposed) 50,000 40,000 30,000 20,000 10,000 o FY93 FY94 FY95 FY96 FY97 FY98 FY99 FYOO FY01 187 STATE BOARD OF EDUCATION Results-Based Budgeting Program Summaries REGULAR EDUCATION PURPOSE: Ensure that Georgia's K-12 students are academically prepared for their futures in the twenty-first century.

The ERS estimates that 214 approximately two-thirds of its annual operating budget is required to provide accounting for all active and inactive members, including the processing of refunds and monthly benefit payments due to terminated and retired members (See table.). INVESTMENTS The ERS has its own "in-house" Investment Services Division, which handles the day-to-day investment transactions with advice from 5 outside advisors. Five members of the ERS Board of Trustees along with the Executive Secretary comprise the Investment Committee. Investment recommendations made by the Investment Committee require EMPLOYEES' RETIREMENT SYSTEM -- Strategies and Services approval by the entire ERS Board of Trustees (See table.). 1982 AMENDMENT EMPLOYEES' RETIREMENT SYSTEM In 1982, the ERS of Georgia Act was amended to assure future actuarial soundness. Members employed on or after July 1, 1982, are referred to as "new plan members." Members joining the ERS prior to July 1, 1982, are referred to as "old plan members." Approximately 70 percent of the ERS members have joined under the new plan provisions. A primary difference between the old plan and new plan provisions is in benefits. The "benefits formula factor" in the old plan allows for a range with a minimum of 1.45 percent up toa maximum of 2.2 percent for 35 or more years of creditable service. The "benefit formula factor" in the new plan allows for a fixed percent factor of 1.70 percent regardless of the number of years of creditable service. A minimum of 10 years of creditable service is required under either plan. SOCIAL SECURITY PROGRAM STATE AGREEMENT The ERS is authorized to enter, on behalf of the state and the political subdivisions of the state, an agreement with the secretary of health and human services that extends benefits of the federal old-age, survivors and disability insurance system to employees of the state and political subdivisions of the state. There are over 2,000 political subdivisions (authorities, school boards and local governments). The majority of these are covered by the state agreement and their employees have Social Security benefits. The main activity in this program involved political subdivisions joining the state agreement. 215 EMPLOYEES' RETIREMENT SYSTEM Results-Based Budgeting Program Summaries EMPLOYEES' RETIREMENT SYSTEM PURPOSE: To provide all state personnel in qualified positions and their families' retirement benefits relative to their service and compensation in the event oftheir retirement, death or disability. GOAL 1: Ensure adequate financing for future benefits due and other obligations of the retirement system by using a conservative long-term philosophy to invest prudently the retirement system assets. DESIRED RESULT la: The retirement fund's -unfunded actuarial accrued liability (VAAL) will liquidate between 15 and 25 years. FY 1998 Actual Result IThis is a measure ofthe retirement fund's financial soundness and means that, using current actuarial assumptions and funding strategies, within 20 ears the retirement Ian will be full funded Program Fund Allocations AGENCY PROGRAMS 1.

At the same time, the commission strives to emphasize the environmental and economic value of the state's forests. Forestry contributes $19.5 billion to the state's economy and provides more than 144,000 jobs in Georgia. The Forestry Commission protects and manages Georgia's 24 million acres of forest land, which represents an approximate $36 billion asset. The Forestry Commission has three budget unit divisions: Reforestation Field Services General Administration and Support The Forestry Commission provides a wide variety of services to the rural forest landowner and offers technical assistance to landowners in urban areas. FOREST PROTECTION AND MANAGEMENT Forest Protection, the primary function of the Forestry Commission, includes a statewide network of county and district offices adequately supplied with manpower and equipment necessary for the suppression of Georgia's more than 8,000 forest fires that bum 32,000 acres each year. The basic fire suppression function includes the prompt detection and reporting of fires. This is followed by a powerful initial attack with trained firefighters operating crawler tractor-plow units and water trucks. The effectiveness of the Forest Protection program is a direct result of properly maintained equipment that can be quickly mobilized at the early phases of a forest fire. The average size fire in Georgia is less than four acres while the average for the southern region is 13 acres and the national average is 42 acres. The success of the program is credited to the manpower and equipment, including fire detection aircraft, being maintained in a constant state of readiness in order to respond during the early phases of a forest fire. The Rural Fire Defense program is the most valuable forest protection community outreach program offered by the Forestry Commission. This program has provided 815 fire departments located in 144 counties a total of 1,250 pieces of low cost/lease frre equipment. The commission also provides assistance with training and operations for local frre departments statewide. In the area of Forest Management, the commission provides technical assistance and service to private and industrial landowners. Multiple forest resource management is encouraged and promoted through forest stewardship on both public and private lands. Other forest management responsibilities of the department include forest health monitoring (which includes periodic insect and disease evaluations, surveys and eradication), promotion of forest quality, education and compliance surveys, promotion and maintenance of RC&D and providing cost-share technical assistance to the forest landowner in establishing sound forestry practices. Additionally, the department conducts the management of four state-owned and two non-state forests using forest stewardship principles and the training of 53 field foresters. REFORESTATION The role of the Reforestation Division is to provide high quality, genetically superior forest tree seedlings to the citizens of Georgia at a reasonable price without cost to the taxpayer. Reforestation efforts are accomplished through the commission's tree improvement and seedling production program, its intensively managed seed orchards, its low-cost seed cleaning and conditioning plant and its two tree seedling nurseries. EDUCATION AND URBAN FORESTRY In order for the state to maintain its leadership role as one of the top forestry states in the nation, the Forestry Commission believes in providing information about forest resources and their contributions to the economy and the environment to the public and targeted audiences. The role of the Education and Urban Forestry program is to inform the public via all media areas about the importance of forest resources to the state's economy, environment and quality of life for all citizens. The responsibility of the Urban Forestry program is to provide leadership and technical assistance in establishing and maintaining sustainable urban and community forests and provide professional expertise to resolve conflicts between people and forest resources. The program is responsible for the administration of more than $300,000 in federal grants to Georgia communities. ATTACHED AGENCY The Herty Foundation supports Georgia's pulp and paper industry by providing research and product development opportunities to manufacturers at its facility in Savannah. This support consists of providing laboratory services and several pilot scale production paper machines to allow Georgia's pulp and paper manufacturers to conduct research, develop new or improve existing products.

In addition, 99 SFC county units will begin operating with computer capabilities to facilitate administrative duties as well as to RURAL FIRE DEFENSE In response to the increased number of homes and other structures being built in forested areas throughout Georgia, the commission conducts the rural frre defense program. The rural frre defense program provides low-cost frre-fIghting equipment and technical REFORESTATION The commission's seed orchard program provides a reliable source of tree seed and the opportunity to explore the genetic potential of the state's forest trees. The seed orchards currently being established are projected to increase growth by 30 224 STATE FORESTRY COMMISSION -- Strategies and Services percent. This 30 percent increase will result in an average per acre value of $3,195 at the 35-year rotation. Through the Flint River and Walker nurseries, the commission offers approximately 50 million tree seedlings for sale to Georgia landowners in an effort to encourage reforestation. These seedlings reforest approximately 71,000 acres each year, helping to reduce the gap between acres harvested and regenerated, while at the same time providing wildlife food and habitat, preventing soil erosion, and enhancing urban and rural aesthetics. FOREST MANAGEMENT Through the forest management program, professional foresters provide technical assistance to landowners in the areas of reforestation, site preparation, forest management plans, timber marking, forester referrals, insect and disease detection, timber stand improvement, natural regeneration, and the marketing of forest products. Through forest stewardship, the commission encourages and enables non-industrial private landowners to practice better stewardship of their woodlands, including timber, wildlife, soil, water, historic, scenic and recreational resources. Many of the federal government's forest management programs, such as the stewardship program, are available to landowners through the Forestry Commission. In addition to landowner services, the State Forestry Commission manages the Dixon Memorial, Baldwin, and Alamo State Forests and the Gracewood, Dawson, and Paulding Forests. Through management ofthese state forests, the commission promotes multiple resource management and environmental awareness in the areas of timber, soil, water, wildlife, recreation, and aesthetics. The Governor's FY 2001 Budget includes $84,080 to increase the commission's capacity to maintain the educational facilities at state forests, enhance educational materials, and develop promotional materials concerning conservation. The commission's compilation of the Forest Inventory Analysis on a five-year cycle has proven to be a success with landowners and forest product industries. The compilation of vital information about forest resources, health and productivity levels has significantly impacted forest planning to the benefit of the $19.5 billion industry in the state.

Public Health accomplishes this mission through the provision of two broad categories of services: Individual health services - direct delivery of health and medical care to individuals. Population-based services - activities and interventions that are targeted to protect entire populations from illness, disease, and injury. RANGE OF HEALTH SERVICES Approximately 20% of Georgia's residents, or 1.4 million individuals receive health services at county health departments each year. However, all Georgians benefit from the population-based services provided by the division. Specific duties of the Division of Public Health include: Preventing, controlling and treating a variety of diseases and afflictions which affect physical health, including cancer, diabetes, heart attacks, hypertension, kidney disease, sickle cell anemia, tuberculosis, AIDS, and sexually transmitted diseases. Providing services in family planning, teenage pregnancy prevention, family health care, maternal and infant care, dental hygiene, community care for the elderly, malnutrition, and immunizations. Providing and disseminating health information and education. Conducting laboratory testing, epidemiological investigations and reporting communicable and infectious diseases. Monitoring various aspects of environmental health including inspections of restaurants, sewage systems, hotels and motels, and other facilities for compliance with health laws. Collecting vital statistics and maintaining records of all births, deaths, marriages and abortions occurring in Georgia. Licensing and regulating ambulance services and certifying emergency medical personnel. "CORE" FUNCTIONS Because the responsibilities of Public Health have evolved to be so broad and varied, there has been much discussion about what the basic role of Public Health should be. To address these concerns, the division has adopted three "core" functions: Assessment - analyzing and evaluating, on a continuous basis, prevailing health status and health needs of the community. Policy Development - using the information gathered from assessments to develop and direct comprehensive state and local public health policies. Assurance - making sure that needed health services are available, either through the public or private sector, that address the health status and health needs of the community. SERVICE DELIVERY SYSTEM The Division of Public Health has 19 health district offices located across the state. A director who must, by law, be a medical doctor heads each district office. The director, along with the district health staff, provides leadership, and administrative and program support to the county health departments in the delivery of health services and in community health assessment. In each of Georgia's 159 counties, there is a county health department that is governed by a county board of health. These boards are responsible for planning, developing and implementing health programs and activities. Services are provided through 274 health department clinic sites.

As required by the 1992 amendments to the federal Rehabilitation Act, the Division gives priority to those with the most severe disabilities. DRS also provides speakers, seminars, and consultation to state and local governments, employers and consumer organizations regarding the Americans with Disabilities Act. VOCATIONAL REHABILITATION Comprehensive services designed to develop the employability of disabled individuals are available statewide through 57 hub offices located within 12 service regions. Additionally, the Division also contracts for vocational services with 22 private non-profit facilities located across the state. Services include vocational assessment, the development of an individually written rehabilitation plan based on service needs, medical treatment, psychological services, vocational and academic training, counseling, interpreter services for the deaf, reader services for blind individuals, work adjustment training, equipment, and job placement. ALTERNATIVE EMPLOYMENT SERVICES While employment in the public and private sectors is the major emphasis ofthe placement process, there are alternative programs for people who are currently unable to work in the competitive labor market. The Supported Employment Program offers support and services for individuals whose disabilities are so severe as to have precluded immediate entry or re-entry into the competitive workforce. Through temporary job coaches and supports within the community, a person can learn necessary job skills while working in a real job setting. The Georgia Industries for the Blind provides training and employment in manufacturing and services to afford citizens who are blind the opportunity to learn job skills that can be used in the private sector. Manufacturing plants are located in Bainbridge and Griffm. The Business Enterprises Program offers employment opportunities for persons who are blind or visually impaired to become independent business people operating vending machines, snack bars and cafes throughout the state. This program, authorized under the federal Randolph Shepard Act, gives priority to blind individuals in federal buildings and requires that the Director of the Vocational Rehabilitation Program be the state licensing agency. INDEPENDENT LIVING The Independent Living Program coordinates services to individuals with severe disabilities to assist them in becoming independent in the local community. Preventing and/or removing people from nursing home care is one of the major functions of the Independent Living Program. Services are provided through contracts with seven nonprofit agencies in Atlanta, Albany, Augusta, Columbus, Gainesville, Macon and Savannah. ROOSEVELT WARM SPRINGS INSTITUTE The Institute is a statewide comprehensive rehabilitation facility that serves people with severe disabilities. Major programs include a 78-bed hospital, a 215-bed vocational rehabilitation unit, a statewide Spinal CordlHead Injury Registry, an industrial rehabilitation program, outpatient services and six outpatient clinics. Also located at the Roosevelt Warm Springs Institute is the Center for Therapeutic Recreation Complex which can serve daily over 200 patients, students and other Georgians with disabilities, providing the therapeutic benefits of recreation while enhancing their independent living skills. The Institute is a major participant in the Learning Disabilities Grant, which will fund a research and training center at the Institute for adults with learning disabilities. DISABILITY ADJUDICATION The Disability Adjudication Unit, which is 100 percent federally funded, performs disability determinations for Georgians who apply for disability benefits administered by the Social Security Administration.

AUTHORITY Title 50-7, Official Code of Georgia Annotated. 339 DEPARTMENT OF INDUSTRY, TRADE AND TOURISM Strategies and Services The Department of Industry, Trade and Tourism (DITT) is Georgia's lead agency for attracting new business investment, encouraging the expansion of existing industry, locating new markets for Georgia products, attracting tourists to Georgia, promoting the state as a location for film and video projects, and planning and mobilizing state resources for economic development. The department offers services through 4 major programmatic divisions - Economic Development, International Trade, Tourism, and Strategic Planning and Research. RURAL DEVELOPMENT AND REGIONAL CERTIFICATION Governor Barnes' FY 2001 Budget reflects his commitment to assist rural Georgia with its development needs. The Governor has dedicated one-third of the revenues from the tobacco settlement to economic development efforts benefiting rural Georgia. The Governor's One Georgia Fund, to be housed in the Georgia Housing and Finance Authority (GHFA), will utilize these proceeds to provide a combination of grants and loans to Georgia communities to assist them in their economic and community development efforts. The Governor's FY 2001 Budget includes $63,082,213 for the fund. The One Georgia Fund will provide assistance to rural communities in two broad areas: business development and infrastructure projects. The amount and form of state assistance to a community will depend on the nature of the project and the wealth of the community. Recognizing the importance of recruiting companies to provide jobs in rural Georgia, Governor Barnes has initially provided $10 million in tobacco funds within the One Georgia Fund to facilitate the location and expansion of fIrms in rural Georgia. Financial assistance will be provided only in instances where a project would not come about in the absence of the assistance. In addition, to be eligible for funding, a project's benefits must exceed its costs. The infrastructure and capacity building portion of the fund is centered on the principle that Georgia's communities must be empowered to help themselves. While providing funds to assist communities with economic development, the fund also requires that communities be actively helping themselves in order to be eligible for infrastructure and capacity-building assistance. The Department of Industry, Trade, and Tourism has developed a Regional Certification Program, a set of straight-forward, objective criteria that will serve as a guideline for communities in measuring their preparedness for economic development. In order to be eligible for infrastructure and capacity- building funding, the region in which a community is located must be certified. DITT's regional representatives will be available to assist communities in achieving certification. This fund will make available fmancial assistance for hard and soft projects that enhance the capacity of a community for tlconomic development. Projects to implement regional technology strategies and regional economic development strategies of the Regional Advisory Councils (RAC's) will be eligible for funding. In addition, community- specific infrastructure and capacity- building assistance will be available. Funding for projects in Georgia's rural areas will be provided from tobacco settlement proceeds housed in GHFA. Funding for business development and infrastructure projects in urban will be provided existing State funds (REBA and RAP). In addition, the Governor's FY 2001 Budget includes $1 million to create a Technology Action Fund in the Department of Industry, Trade, and Tourism. This new fund will be used to assist urban communities in implementing technology projects. TOURISM RECRUITMENT In FY 1999, the Tourism Division released the results of the 1998 Tourism Marketing Study. The study's fmdings reflected very favorably on the state's marketing efforts. The study shows that Georgia ranks #2 in the Southeast as a travel destination. Moreover, particular efforts of the department received high ratings for effectiveness. The Georgia on My Mind Travel Guide was cited as an excellent publication, and the Visitors Centers received very favorable reviews from citizens. One key recommendation of the study has become a central part of Governor Barnes' FY 2001 recommendation for the department. The study recommended increased funding for tourism advertising in order to attract additional visitors to the state. Towards this end, the Governor's FY 2001 budget recommendation includes $3,000,000 in additional tourism marketing funds earmarked for advertising. Of this $3 million, $400,000 is designated for DIIT to assist with the marketing of the Georgia Sports and Music Halls of Fame. Another key piece of Governor Barnes' FY 2001 tourism initiative is tourism product development The recommended FY 2000 amended budget includes $23,009,600 in state funds for tourism infrastructure projects in Savannah, Augusta, Jekyll Island and Bainbridge. These projects will leverage over $70 million in other funds. In Savannah, the state will match over $14 million in local and other funds to assist with a variety of projects in the downtown area, including trolley rehabilitation, visitor center improvements, and corridor revitalization. In Augusta, the state will contribute $5 million more to the construction of the Georgia Golf Hall of Fame, $3 million to the creation of Augusta Commons, a new riverfront 340 DEPARTMENT OF INDUSTRY, TRADE AND TOURISM -- Strategies and Services park, and $2 million for gateway and corridor beautification. The FY 2001 budget also includes $2.5 million for the Jekyll Island Authority to implement a circulation plan within the historic district and to generally defme the boundaries of the district. This state funding will serve as seed money to assist the authority in leveraging over $13 million in private investment over the next five years. Finally, the state will provide a local assistance grant to fund the construction of a visitor center in Bainbridge ($1,554,600) to be owned and operated locally. Additional tourism product development funding will be available through the One Georgia Fund for communities that qualify for the fund. FILM AND VIDEOTAPE PROJECT RECRUITMENT The Governor's FY 2001 Budget also includes funds to increase the state's film recruitment efforts. The budget provides $200,000 in additional marketing funding and $55,000 for a new location scout to operate as a project manager for film projects. In FY 2000, the Governor reinstated the Georgia Film and Videotape Advisory Commission, which had been inactive for a number of years. The commission is a group of 38 professionals from a variety of fields that will advise the film division on matters of marketing, community relations, and private sector incentives. The department has intensified its film recruitment efforts over the last year. In FY 1999, DITT used existing marketing funds to contract with a marketing representative based out of Los Angeles. This representative promoted the state at film festivals and worked with companies in L.A. and New York to generate film business for Georgia. As a result of the department's intensified efforts, this year alone the state received its second and third DreamWorks projects. The department is also working to identify service expansion opportunities in the recorded music industry. INTERNATIONAL TRADE PROMOTION Governor Barnes' FY 2001 budget recommendation includes funding for two new initiatives to promote international trade. $193,000 is provided to launch the Latin American Gateway Initiative. This funding will add a new trade contract for Argentina, Georgia's fastest growing export market. The initiative will take advantage of the growing linkages between the economies of Georgia and Latin America. Funding is also provided for special marketing initiatives and trade shows for the region. In addition, the Governor's FY 2001 budget includes $235,000 for an e-commerce trade initiative, which will serve as a pilot project for the state, will link Georgia businesses with potential partners in Europe and Israel. DITT is currently working with private partners to develop a model for a website that will serve as a one-stop shop for international trade. REGIONAL ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT STRATEGIES In FY 1999, the Department of Industry, Trade, and Tourism and the Department of Community Affairs (DCA) initiated a new program of regional community and economic development. This program has placed a team of four development specialists- two from each department - in each of 11 regions throughout the state. The development efforts of each region are guided by a 21 member Regional Advisory Council, composed of public and private sector leaders from throughout the region. Each council was charged with coming up with a strategic plan for economic development tailored to the strengths and needs of its region. In FY 1999, each region of Georgia completed a strategic plan for economic development, identifying key opportunities for the region and a 341 manageable number of key action points to work towards realizing these opportunities. In FY 2000, DITT and DCA are working with the regions to implement these plans. In addition, these plans will be provided to other state agencies as information to be considered in planning regional projects. The Governor's recommended FY 2001 budget continues the funding of this regional program. In addition, the One Georgia Fund will be available to assist regions in implementing parts of their plans. THE YAMACRAW MISSION Governor Barnes' FY 2001 budget continues the state's focus on high technology industry base development for Georgia. The Yamacraw Mission, launched in FY 2000, brings together the Department of Industry, Trade and Tourism, the Georgia Research Alliance, and the University System with the express goal of making Georgia the preeminent leader in the design of electronic components for the communications and computer industries. Governor Barnes' recommends a total of $12,715,672 in additional funding for the Yamacraw Mission in the FY 2000 amended and FY 2001 budgets. This funding is distributed among the four core areas of the initiative: focused research, educational capacity-building, commercialization, and marketing. The additional $1 million in funding for focused research will support both fundamental and applied work in specialized areas of semiconductor chip design. This will allow the continuation of work that is currently under way in three areas (embedded software, broadband access hardware, and system prototyping) as well as the initiation of research in new specialized Yamacraw areas. The recommended $6,521,240 for educational capacity building includes funding for new Yamacraw faculty at the 8 participating schools DEPARTMENT OF INDUSTRY, TRADE AND TOURISM -- Strategies and Services to teach courses and conduct research in Yamacraw fields. In the program's first year alone, Yamacraw schools have hired 22 new faculty. This new funding will permit the addition of 25 more Yamacraw faculty. Funding is also provided for a new Yamacraw Distance Learning Project, which will allow students at other Yamacraw institutions access to graduate teaching assistants from Georgia Tech. In addition, the Governor's FY 2001 budget includes funding to attract individuals into Yamacraw fields in Georgia. This will be accomplished from both ends of the workforce spectrum. Over the shortterm, continuing education courses will serve as a tool to generate increased numbers of professionals in Yamacraw fields as well as to attract national attention to Georgia's efforts in this area. Looking towards the longer term, high school students will be exposed to the opportunities in Yamacraw fields in order to generate emollment in college-level Yamacraw programs in years to come. The FY 2001 recommendation includes $1,570,650 in funding for commercialization. This includes funding for a venture capital director and operating expenses for the fund. In addition, $2.5 million in additional seed funding is recommended in the amended FY 2000 budget, bringing total available seed capital to the $5 million target. The Governor also recommends funding for full operation of the Yamacraw Design Center. The Governor's amended FY 2000 budget also provides $200,000 for the predesign of a Yamacraw building to house design center staff, university and private sector researchers, and start-up companies. Additional funding is provided for marketing. The Governor's FY 2001 budget includes $94,500 for a technical human resources recruiter to focus on tracking and recruiting existing professionals in Yamacraw fields. The benefits to be gained from this substantial investment are farreaching. By 2005, this initiative aims to add 2,000 high paying engineering jobs to Georgia, locate or see established 10 key companies within the state, and increase fourfold the supply of venture capital available to fledgling Georgia businesses in this industry sector. The project's longterm goal is to build a sustainable economic environment anchored in knowledge-based industries. Along with $34 million in funding for the Georgia Research Alliance, this recommendation will work to solidify Georgia's position among technology centers. According to the American Electronics Association, Georgia leads the U.S. in the rate of high technology job creation. GEORGIA PORTS AUTHORITY The Port of Savannah is one of the premier container ports in the U.S., offering service to more than 100 countries by more than 50 major steamship lines. Savannah is the tenth largest container port in the United States and the second largest in the highly competitive South Atlantic market. The Port of Brunswick continues to enjoy a reputation as an automotive gateway to the Southeastern U.S.. This year, Georgia Ports Authority (GPA) customers have continued to expand automobile processing activity on Colonel's Island. At the same time, bulk grain shipments through the island have increased due to the addition of the automatic ship unloader for bulk grain in FY 1999. Under Governor Barnes, the Georgia Ports Authority is preparing to maintain and increase its role as a major U.S. port of call well into the next century. The Governor's amended FY 2000 budget includes $9 million in bonds for the construction of a third auto dock on Colonel's Island to accommodate this growing business. In addition, the Governor has committed to fund the state's portion of the Brunswick harbor deepening. Funds will be made available once the federal government has appropriated its share of the project. 342 In order to prepare for future expansion of Savannah's Container Port, the Governor has agreed to allow the authority to retain a total of $12,076,376 due to the state as payback for debt in prior years. Of this, $4,581,296 is to be used for property acquisition around the Garden City terminal. An additional $1 million in payback reduction is provided to fund a study of options and costs associated with expansion across the Savannah River on Hutchinson Island. Finally, $6,495,080 in payback reduction is provided to fund the replacement of 5 rubber tire gantries and 4 container toplifts for Container Port. These investments will allow the ports to continue to playa key role in the Georgia economy. Today, 80,100 jobs, representing $1.8 billion in wages, are supported directly or indirectly by Georgia's ports. Georgia's ports generate $23 billion in revenue and account for $565 million in state and local taxes each year. GEORGIA WORLD CONGRESS CENTER The Georgia World Congress Center Authority owns and operates the Georgia World Congress Center (GWCC), Georgia Dome and Centennial Olympic Park. The GWCC, which opened its doors in 1976, is an international trade show and convention facility legislatively created to encourage economic development and to enhance private enterprise. The Governor's FY 2001 budget includes $22.9 million for a number of projects associated with the Phase IV expansion of the GWCC. This includes $4.4 million to assist the authority in covering shortfalls in the construction budget. Current estimates show a shortfall of $11,136,092. The GWCC will make up the remainder of the shortfall from its reserves. The $22.9 million provided in the recommended budget also includes $7.5 million for one-half of the furniture, fixtures and equipment DEPARTMENT OF INDUSTRY, TRADE AND TOURISM -- Strategies and Services necessary for operation of the building. Funding for these fIxtures is necessary now so that they can be structurally integrated into the design of the building. Funding for the remaining furniture, fIXtures and equipment will be requested in FY 2002. Additional parking will be necessary both to replace the parking lot that was lost to the Phase IV expansion site and to accommodate increased traffic volumes associated with this new facility. To meet this need, the Governor recommends $7 million to develop parking on the Jones Avenue site, acquired with bond funds authorized last year. An additional $4 million is provided for site acquisition ($3 million) and the preliminary design of a parking deck to be located on Northside Drive. The Phase IV expansion, funded in amended FY 1999, will add 1.3 million square feet to the building, increasing exhibit space by over 420,000 square feet and enabling the GWCC to maintain its position as one of the top 5 convention centers in the nation. This expansion will allow the facility to continue to attract and maintain larger trade shows and to accommodate more meetings and shows simultaneously. The projected return on this investment is substantial. The expansion is expected to attract an estimated 500,000 additional out-ofstate visitors, create 19,000 new jobs each year and generate $53 million in new tax revenues.

AUTHORITY State Constitution; Official Code of Georgia Annotated Title 45-14. 354 OFFICE OF COMMISSIONER OF INSURANCE Strategies and Services The Office of Commissioner of Insurance administers a number of strategies and services to fulfill its duties in regulating the state's insurance industry, industrial loan companies and fire safety standards. These activities are geared toward enabling the department to satisfy its regulatory responsibilities effectively, and to protect and assist the public in the areas the department oversees. Highlighted below are the some of these programs and developments; namely, Implementation of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, Consumer Services, Manufactured Housing, Fire Safety Education and Hazardous Materials. IMPLEMENTATION OF THE HEALTH INSURANCE PORTABILITY AND ACCOUNTABILITY ACT In 1996, the federal government passed into law the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (i.e., Kassebaum-Kennedy Health Insurance Reform Bill) which requires each state to enact and enforce the guidelines established in this Act regarding health insurance plans. As a result, the 1997 General Assembly passed H.B. 654 to serve as the state law implementing the federal Act. The department's responsibility is to educate employers and the public about the changes in the federal and state statutes concerning health insurance, and enforce these new requirements. The main changes both pieces of legislation made in health insurance law were in the areas of pre-existing condition exclusions, crediting coverage with the alternative method, special enrollment, affiliation periods, nondiscrimination and guaranteed renewability, certificates of creditable coverage, and the state's alternative mechanism of obtaining portability of coverage when an individual loses group health insurance coverage. The department plans to inform the public of these changes in the law through newsletters and press releases among over $24 million for consumers. other means. Initially though, much The division also aids other of the department's efforts regarding divisions within the department in a these new requirements concerning range of areas. Examples of the areas health insurance are expected to be the division investigators routinely devoted to monitoring and furnish support are: the Enforcement enforcement due to the number of and Fraud Units in evidence health insurance policy refilings many procurement and case prosecution; insurance companies will have to Agents Licensing and Regulatory make.

Manufactured housing plant reviews usually entail the examination and approval of each housing design plan and quality assurance manual. Before a plant commences operation, an initial comprehensive inspection is conducted involving all aspects of production and material handling, along with testing and evaluating the plant's quality assurance program. Plants in operation are inspected regularly. During these inspections, each section of each home is inspected in at least one phase of the production process, to assure compliance. The plant and the homes it produces must be in full compliance with federal and state standards before a HUD label of approval can be placed on the manufactured homes and these homes offered for sale. The Manufactured Housing section also regulates the sale and installation of manufactured homes through inspecting manufactured homes on dealer lots for possible damage during transit to the dealer, for dealer alterations and other violations. Inspections can be prompted by consumer complaints. Presently, section staff have the responsibility of enforcing federal and state manufactured housing standards for the 26 licensed in-state plants and 93 out-of-state manufacturers licensed to conduct business in Georgia. Section staff regulate 621 licensed manufactured housing dealers and 532 licensed installers. FIRE SAFETY EDUCATION The Fire Safety Division, through its Fire Safety Education Program, develops instructional programs on and promotes awareness of fIre safety. The program's efforts emphasize a person's responsibility for fIre prevention and .fIre safety measures at home, school, work and other areas. In this regard, the program coordinates the efforts of the Commissioner, news media, State Fire Marshal's Office and the department's Public Educ~tion section to educate the public on fIre safety in a clear, organized fashion. The program is attempting to further educate the public on fIre safety by expanding its involvement in several organizations such as the Coalition of Public Fire Safety Educators, Safe Kids of Georgia and the EMS Advisory Council. Prompted by the importance and the effectiveness of learning and practicing fIre safety at an early age, the program is initiating new and expanding current efforts directed at school- age students as a way of reaching and teaching children about fIre safety. Some of these efforts include the Learn Not To Burn, Challenge For Life, and Junior Fire Marshal pro-grams, as well as the acquisition of a mobile fIre safety house where live demonstrations of fIre safety techniques can be presented to school and public groups. Other areas in which the program is active include smoke detector distribution programs, establishing a volunteer fIre safety education teaching group, and developing the cooperation necessary for joint efforts by the local fIre services and the local boards of education to encourage fIre safety education activities in every school. HAZARDOUS MATERIALS The Fire Safety Division's Hazardous Materials section enforces areas designated to the department concerning the storage, transportation and handling of hazardous materials including liquid propane gas, anhydrous ammonia, flammable and combustible liquids, explosives, 356 welding gases, natural gases and blasting agents. The section, under this responsibility, conducts inspections, issues permits and licenses, investigates hazardous materials incidents and enforces applicable fIre safety codes. The section also reviews plans and specifications for proposed bulk storage facilities of these substances. Fire Deaths in Georgia 1995 -1999 The section must approve these plans and specifications before construction can begin on a proposed hazardous material bulk storage facility. The section is also assigned the department's responsibility to regulate the manufacture, transport, use, sale and storage of explosives through licensing the individuals or organizations involved in those activities. To complement its regulatory duties, the section conducts education and training programs on storing, transporting and handling hazardous materials in an effort to continue minimizing the loss of life and property from hazardous materials fIre incidents.

After many years of rapid growth in the need to incarcerate juvenile criminal offenders, the state implemented a three-year plan adding many needed rehabilitative services to the state institutions. Overall, Georgia added over $43 million in operation funds during this three-year span. Those enhancements are cumulatively onesixth of the total budget recommendation for FY 2001. The Governor is also taking two significant steps to ensure the safety of the juveniles under state supervision with his recommendation. First, in the amended FY 2000 and the FY 2001 recommendations, the Governor has authorized and funded an increase in the entry-level pay for juvenile correctional officers (JCO). The robust economy in Georgia has hampered the ability of the department to recruit and retain the guards needed to operate a juvenile correctional facility. Effective December 1, 1999, the Governor authorized the department to raise entry-level salaries to $22,044. Second, the Governor has recommended an additional 300 JCOs be added to the current level of approximately 2,150. Youth in juvenile centers often need much more one on one contact during the day than their counterparts in the adult correctional system. The Governor wants to enhance the level of safety found within the state's youth development campuses (YDC) and regional youth detention centers (RYDC). The department has developed a staffmg plan to place these JCOs at those facilities that have historically been understaffed. Properly administering the bed space created by the state in the 1990s has also been prioritized by the Governor. During this decade, the demand for secure beds grew immensely. The department was often forced to use older facilities to accommodate this need. With the Sumter YDC and the Muscogee YDC beds slated to come on-line in the next two years and adding 300 beds to the YDC system, the Governor has recommended closure of the Lorenzo Benn YDC. This 127-bed unit is close to 100 years old and has been serving well as a juvenile home, but would have needed major work in the future if it was to maintain a high quality of operations. In the RYDC system, the Governor has plans to open the Crisp County and Gainesville RYDCs (80 beds each) and construct new similar RYDCs in Rome, Columbus, and Muscogee. The latter three RYDCs will replace antiquated prototype units designed when those facilities were not programmed to deliver the high levels of medical, mental health, and education services needed today. The department is currently developing plans to convert those older RYDCs to various community correctional and other uses. The Governor is also prioritizing the availability of alternatives to detention while still making sure violent offenders are locked behind bars thereby protecting the public. He has recommended expanding the intensive supervision program (ISP) statewide. Instead of a regular case manager with a high caseload, the ISP focuses on small units of staff supervising smaller caseloads of low-risk offenders in the community creating more frequent contact between the children and their individual case manager. 361 DEPARTMENT OF JUVENILE JUSTICE Financial Summary Expenditures, Current Budget and Agency Requests Budget Classes/Fund Sources Personal Services Regular Operating Expenses Travel Motor Vehicles Equipment Real Estate Per Diem, Fees, and Contracts Computer Charges Telecommunications Capital Outlay Service Benefits for Children Purchased of Service Contracts Grants to Co.

Prior to 1992, the department functioned as the Division of Children and Youth Services within the Department of Human Resources. The purpose ofDJJ is to: Provide for the supervision, detention, and rehabilitation of juvenile delinquents committed to the state's custody; Operate and provide assistance for prevention programs; and Provide for treatment of juvenile offenders with specialized needs. Aside from internal support services, DJJ carries out its operations through two main divisions: facilities and community corrections. FACILITIES The facility division manages both the long-term rehabilitative youth development campuses (YDC) and the short-term regional youth detention centers (RYDC). Youth development campuses are secure state institutions that provide a residential setting for juveniles including academic, recreational, vocational, medical, counseling, and religious services. Two types of beds exist in the YDC system. The ftrst is a regular commitment bed ftlled with a child committed to the state by a juvenile court. These youths may stay in a commitment status for up to ftve years, but mayor may not spend all of that time within a YDC. The second type of child is one sentenced by a juvenile court to spend 90-days within a state YDC. For those youth designated to spend time within the YDC system, the department performs thorough assessments of them. The classiftcation system of DJJ incorporates risk to self and others; age; size; previous conduct; offense history; special needs; etc. In this way, the department can tailor the services given the child while ensuring his or her safety. Currently, the department operates ten YDCs throughout the state with a total of 2,357 beds. Individual institutions range in size from 480 to 121 beds. Plans are underway to increase the capacity of the YDC system to 2,510 by the end ofFY 2002 through eleven institutions. The goal of the department is to have at least 40% of youth committed to a YDC within a given year to not reenter either the adult or juvenile correctional systems for at least three years after release. In FY 1999, that rate was 38%. Regional youth detention centers are secure state institutions that detain youth until a court hearing can be held for him or her, until a permanent placement for the youth is available. Even though RYDCs are not programmed for longterm stays by juveniles, a full array of services are available for those children who stay there. Educational, medical, and mental health services are provided at these locations. The state has a capacity in the RYDC system of 1,073 beds. New facilities slated to go on-line by FY 2002 include replacements of the Rome, Macon, and Augusta RYDCs. These centers are old and designed during a time when their occupants needed less services. DJJ has developed an 80-bed prototype RYDC, the fIrst of which will be open in Gainesville in 2001. The other replacement facilities will be patterned after this pilot site. Once all the replacements are in operation, the department will have an RYDC system capacity of 1,355. COMMUNITY CORRECTIONS The community corrections division is responsible for management and oversight of rehabilitative programs located in a non-incarceration setting. Community corrections tailors the rehabilitative efforts of the department in an individual manner toward each child in its care. With the youths having a wide variety of problems, an expanded continuum of services must be used. Services in this division include group homes, multiservice centers, non-residential community schools, intensive supervision programs, and electronic monitoring. The department contracts out for many of these services, as well as for wilderness program slots and specialized residential treatment beds. This division also contains the court services section. It consists of juvenile probation/parole specialists (JPPS) who are the case managers of the department's charges. They are located in offices throughout the state. JPPSs provide intake services upon a youth's entry into the juvenile justice system. Upon commitment to the department, the JPPS is also instrumental in the development of the rehabilitative program developed for the juvenile. AUTHORITY Titles 15-11, 39-3, and 49-4A, Official Code of Georgia Annotated. 367 DEPARTMENT OF JUVENILE JUSTICE Strategies and Services The Governor's budget recommendation for the Department of Juvenile Justice (DJJ) focuses on the fmal phase of the expansion of rehabilitative services for delinquent youth in the state's custody through a three-year $65 million plan developed in cooperation with the United States Department of Justice. The FY 2001 budget recommends over $12.8 million in new operational costs for the second phase of enhancing departmental programs. The fmal phase of this plan brings the total new expenditures over three years to $44 million in additional funding for increasing operational capacity for the ever-growing juvenile population and $21 million in new construction over the same three years. EDUCATIONAL SERVICES DJJ's goal is to provide all youth under the department's custody a complete general, vocational, and special education where appropriate. The office of education has oversight of the educational programs at all DJJ facilities, including development and implementation of policies and training programs. In conjunction with the G~orgia Department of Education, the office has developed and implemented a comprehensive curriculum for instruction. With a variety of educational levels entering the juvenile justice system at any given time, the approach to developing a statewide curriculum must be able to tailor an educational plan to fit an individual's needs. The crux of being able to provide appropriate educational services is to accurately determine the educational level of a student quickly upon admission. DJJ has developed a plan to ensure that each youth is tested within 72 hours of admission. Regular and vocational education is an important function of the DJJ educational system, but special education classes are also becoming a major need among juveniles. Many youths admitted to a DJJ facility need some form of special education. For some, the need may be only one class a day. For others, the need may be much greater. In either situation, the department has added special education teachers to ensure a twelve to one ratio of special education .students to special education teachers in the department statewide. DJJ also ensures that all youth eligible for attaining a General Educational Development certificate have access to appropriate materials. MENTAL HEATH CARE The mental health care component of the department is to ensure that all youth within the system receive appropriate mental health care and treatment services. The office of mental health is to establish programs and services required to meet the mental health needs of youths. These children's problems can range from drug and alcohol dependency to sexual or physical abuse histories. A key link in the mental health system is a quick and accurate diagnosis of individual problems. DJJ has developed a mental health and suicide risk screening instrument for use in all DJJ facilities. Intake screening is done on each youth admitted into a DJJ facility, usually a regional youth detention center (RYDC). Upon admittance to a long-term youth development campus (YDC), each youth will receive a complete mental health needs assessment reviewed by a psychologist. Protocols have also been developed for referral of youth with mental health needs. Once a need for mental health treatment is indicated, a treatment plan is developed. In a YDC, this is an extensive plan, but in an RYDC, the needs are balanced with the likely length of the stay of the youth. If a juvenile is identified with severe mental illness that cannot be provided for in an RYDC or YDC, then the youth is designated as needing an alternative placement in a forensic psychiatric facility or other setting consistent with the youth's mental health needs. When developing a mental health treatment plan for a youth in its custody, DJJ takes a holistic approach. Plans are individualized; Psychological issues are addressed; Needed medication is identified; Planned activities are developed; A behavior management plan is undertaken; Needed counseling is provided; An analysis of the youth's current placement is performed; Families are brought into the treatment plan; and A transition plan is developed for his or her return to the community. While DJJ's mental health care strategy focuses on rehabilitation of the youth and returning him or her to the community as a better person, the department has also taken the preventative measure to discourage suicides within the juvenile justice system. Children who commit crimes are often emotionally troubled and upon incarceration, react negatively to their situation, frequently with threats of suicide. 368 DEPARTMENT OF JUVENILE JUSTICE - Strategies And Services DJJ has developed policies and procedures to identify these youth before the situation turns tragic. Preventative actions include immediate referral to an appropriate mental health .professional and development of a suicide prevention plan individualized for the juvenile's particular situation. MEDICAL CARE The department ensures that adequate medical care is provided to all state juveniles. An extensive part of the department's medical plan includes a system for proper screening and a physical upon admission. To complement that initial step, DJJ also provides all youths with access to physicians for medical care. The department's health appraisal for youth entering the system is to evaluate the health status of the juvenile to determine medical treatment needs and appropriate medial classification and restrictions. Medical care consists not only of screening, but also of a comprehensive effort throughout the DJJ system. It includes: Dental care, including treatment to prevent loss and to provide cleaning services; Timely access to appropriate medical specialists and hospitalization when indicated; and Twenty-four-hour infirmary services, as appropriate. Another important part of providing medical care is accurate medical records. DJJ has developed a plan to assure that a youth, when leaving a facility, is accompanied by a complete summary of his or her medical history. PHYSICAL AND PROGRAMMATIC CAPACITY DJJ has also developed a threeyear plan to address the direct care staffmg needs of the state's juvenile justice system. Direct care staff primarily consist of juvenile correctional officers and cottage life supervisors. These staff protect youth from harm and provide security for the facility. The department has taken steps to provide extensive training for the direct care staff. DJJ has also established standards for employment. The governor has also recommended in both the amended FY 2000 budget and the FY 2001 budget, an increase in the entry level salary of all juvenile correctional officers to the Georgia Gain target level. While strengthening the quality of the direct care staff, the department has also initiated development of detention standards based on a risk assessment instrument. This instrument evaluates youth for placement in alternative detention programs being developed by DJJ. The risk assessment instrument identifies youth who may not be legally held in secure detention facilities; youth whose risk factors make use of non-secure detention alternatives appropriate; and youth whose risk factors make secure detention mandatory. Those youth not needing secure detention are placed in the developing continuum of alternative placements to RYDCs. PROTECTION FROM HARM DJJ has a dual protectionary function. On one hand, the department incarcerates youth to prevent them from harming members of the general public. On the other hand, DJJ is protecting youth from harmful outside agents and abuse. The beginning of youth protection starts with their classification and room assignment upon entering an RYDC or YDC. The age, size, and demeanor of youth entering the juvenile justice system varies greatly. Juveniles often cannot be housed together or even in close proximity. DJJ 369 assigns rooms based on concerns such as these. Line staff also visually checks incarcerated youth multiple times during an hour. State institutions have monitoring systems in place to ensure this occurs. The department has also expanded the protocols protecting youth from excessive use of force by staff. Often, juveniles act aggressively and need restraints. Department policy requires restraints to be used only when necessary with periodic assessments for continuing usage. Upon entering an RYDC or YDC, juveniles are given an orientation of the facility and its particular protocols. QUALITY ASSURANCE To ensure juveniles within the state's custody are not harmed, DJJ established the office of quality assurance. One unit in the office consists of staff to investigate allegations of child abuse in institutional settings. This unit works with the Georgia Bureau of Investigation to maintain the quality of its investigative staff. The other half of the office of quality assurance consists of auditors who regularly visit each YDC and RYDC to make sure all departmental policies and protocols are being strictly followed. They will also make unannounced visits. These audits will include: Inspection of records, unit logs, incident and use of force reports, documentation of room checks by line staff, etc.; Interviews with staff, administrators, and youths at each facility; Where appropriate, interviews with the parents or other care givers of youth confmed in state institutions; and Interviews with officials having regular contact with facilities or residents.

The department, through its programs and wide spectrum of services, plays an important role in the development of the state's workforce. The department's major areas of responsibility are providing training, services, protection, and information. TRAINING In a joint partnership with businesses and other community leaders, the department provides job training to economically disadvantaged youth and adults, older workers, summer youth, and dislocated workers to increase employment opportunities and improve the quality of the labor force in the state. The Workforce Investment Act of 1998 was designed to replace the Job Training Partnership Act (JTPA). Under the Workforce Investment Act, the Governor established the State Workforce Investment Board and named the Department of Labor as the lead agency for implementation of the new act. The Department in conjunction with its partner agencies, the Departments of Human Resources and Technical and Adult Education has implemented the OneStop System to deliver comprehensive workforce development services to customers. Workforce development services consist of registration, assessment (need and eligibility determinations and job readiness screening), structured job search workshops, resume preparations, employment counseling, job development, vocational training, on-the-job training, and job placement to employer job listings opportunities. Customers in need of additional assistance in conjunction with their employability needs are referred to other agencies for complimentary services such as adult basic education and vocational training. For employers the department provides "no cost" labor exchange services that include the maintenance of interstate and intrastate job banks, employment screening, on the job training programs, and tax credits though the Worker Opportunities Tax Credit Act. SERVICES The department reduces the adverse impact of unemployment by providing monetary payments to eligible individuals for a limited period and by assisting employers in minimizing their unemployment insurance tax liability. During FY 1999,200,201 unemployment claims were filed with the department. The department also provides federally-funded supplemental benefits to unemployed job seekers who have exhausted their regular unemployment insurance benefits. One of the department's primary responsibilities is the administration of the public employment service in the state through a statewide network of 53 offices. The department provides an array of services, which include: Referral of qualified applicants to employers who have listed job openings. Counseling and other services to help evaluate workers' job skills and better prepare them for available jobs. Referral to services provided by other agencies in the community, such as job training, adult education, vocational rehabilitation, veterans' programs, medical care, and supportive services. A total of 157,539 applicants received employment or vocational counseling in FY 1999. The department also provides basic readjustment services for "dislocated workers" whose job losses resulted from changing technology or other economic conditions. These services include assessment, counseling, testing, and job search and relocation assistance. Additionally, the department serves 1,530 at-risk youth at 17 program sites located in 10 school systems across the state through its Jobs for Georgia Graduates program, with that number increasing as new sites scheduled to begin operations in the next year; provides employment service to disabled individuals who register for the service; and provides placement and employment service to migrant/seasonal farm workers and Armed Forces veterans who are making the adjustment from military to civilian life. PROTECTION The department has responsibility for administering Georgia laws regulating the employment of children and regulatory responsibility for equipment, such as amusement and carnival rides, elevators, escalators, safety glass, high voltage apparatus, boilers, and pressure vessels. The department processed 55,409 work permits for students during FY 1999, and the Safety Engineering staff performed a total of 41,794 safety inspections of elevators, boilers, and amusement rides. INFORMATION Compiling and disseminating labor market information is a primary responsibility of the department. Available information includes data on employment, worker availability, wages, and historic projected trends. Several of the statistical series published by the department, such as Georgia Labor Market Trends and Area Labor Profiles, serve as key indicators of the state's economic health. AUTHORITY Titles 8, 34, 39 and 46 of the Official Code of Georgia Annotated. 377 DEPARTMENT OF LABOR Strategies and Services WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT COLLABORATION In August 1997, the commissioners of the Departments of Labor, Technical and Adult Education, and Human Resources signed a Memorandum of Understanding to reduce program redundancies and to streamline the delivery of each agency's services. This partnership has allowed each agency to build upon its strengths, while providing improved customer service. An interagency team, known as Team:WORK, is charged with developing and implementing the new service delivery system. Team:WORK and the 9 implementation teams have developed collaborative goals for several service strategies: Implementation of a common client intake system; Creation of a common client assessment system; Case management coordina- tion; Establishment of mutually accepted work-readiness criteria; Provision of quality education and training; Coordination of job develop- ment and placement activities; Utilization of employer input and need; Linkage of agency computer systems for data sharing; and Provision of staff training and development. Each of the 9 implementation teams has a sponsor who is a member of Team:WORK and who provides guidance and support to the team. The membership of the 9 implementation teams is comprised of state and local representatives from each of the 3 departments involved in this collaborative effort. Each agency has designated a project manager to assure interagency cooperation. An executive assistant prepares a collaborative newsletter and keeps the project on track. Dedicated staff from each of the 3 agencies have been selected for training and automation of the initiative. In FY 2001 these efforts are continuing. The act requires each governor to establish a state board that is charged with developing a 5-year strategic plan describing the state's proposed FUNDING MECHANISM FOR THE WORKFORCE INVESTMENT ACT OF 1998 SqmlteF~ SIream; ResenWfcr I Secretaryof ---.

In fall 1999, the system served 203,806 students and during FY 1999, granted 36,076 degrees. The Units of the University System perform several functions, including instruction, research, and public service. The primary mission of the system is instruction. This activity is funded through the Resident Instruction or "A" Unit Budget. The "B" Unit Budget contains 16 different functional budgets. Activities funded through the "B" Unit include the Georgia Tech Research Institute, Agricultural Experiment Stations, Cooperative Extension Service, Skidaway Institute of Oceanography and the Medical College of Georgia Hospital and Clinics. DEPARTMENT OPERATIONS INSTRUCTION-The system is composed of 34 institutions that provide approximately 90% of the people of Georgia with access to institutions of higher education within commuting distance. Fifteen two-year colleges offer programs leading to an associate degree. Four of these institutions (Bainbridge, Coastal .Georgia Community College, Clayton and Dalton) offer technical programs through an arrangement with the State Board of Technical and Adult Education. There are 13 senior colleges and state universities in the system. These institutions offer baccalaureate degrees, and most offer associate and MEDICAL COLLEGE OF GEORGIA HOSPITAL AND CLINICS - serve as an auxiliary unit of the Medical College of Georgia focusing on the development of medical knowledge and skills through organized programs of teaching medical, dental, nursing and allied health science students. The Medical College of Georgia Hospital and Clinics allow students to develop knowledge and skills by actually participating in the care of patients. SKIDAWAY INSTITUTE OF OCEANOGRAPHY (SKIO) - is a non-degree granting research institute of the University System. The mission of SKIO is to provide the state with an internationally recognized marine science center and to promote economic development within Georgia. Skidaway has been an active participant in the distance learning initiative and also provides significant environmental research and information. GEORGIA RESEARCH ALLIANCE (GRA) - is a partnership between Georgia's public and private research universities and private corporations to promote economic development in Georgia. GRA's mission is to improve graduate degrees. All 6 regional and research universities in the system offer graduate and professional degrees, as well as some associate and baccalaureate degrees. OTHER SYSTEM UNITS AND ACTIVITIES GEORGIA TECH RESEARCH INSTITUTE (GTRI) - is comprised of 6 laboratories that provide a broad range of scientific, engineering and industrial research. The Institute encourages industrial and economic development by providing an extension service that meets the technical, informational and other needs of industry and local development groups. AGRICULTURAL EXPERIMENT STATIONS conduct basic and applied agricultural research to obtain a more complete linderstanding of the factors that bear upon Georgia agriculture. This mission is accomplished by research in crop and animal production,product quality, new product development, and the use of new technology in the processing and manufacturing of these products. COOPERATIVE EXTENSION SERVICE - provides assistance to Georgia farmers through a network of county extension agents who share information and research developed through the effort of the Agricultural Experiment Stations. Cooperative Extension also provides useful and practical information to the people of Georgia on subjects related to natural resources, home economics, youth development, rural development, and family support. Georgia's research capabilities in emerging technologies specifically advanced communications, biotechnology and environmental technologies - that offer significant potential for economic and industrial growth. All of GRA's activities are geared toward creating and nurturing a critical mass of intellectual capital that in tum leads to the creation of new technologies, new companies and other cutting edge opportunities for Georgia. ATTACHED AGENCIES The Georgia Public Telecommunications Commission (GPTC) provides a 9-station television and 13-station radio network designed to meet the educational, cultural and informational needs of the people of Georgia. The commission also provides educational programming for state agencies and local schools through state-of-the~art satellite technology. AUTHORITY Titles 12,20,49 and 50 of the Official Code of Georgia Annotated. 495 REGENTS, UNIVERSITY SYSTEM OF GEORGIA Strategies and Services Governor Barnes has made education a major priority during his tenn as the state's top elected official. He recognizes that in today's global economy, a state that ignores its duty to ensure a highly educated workforce will not succeed in the effort to secure the jobs of the new "knowledge economy." In the University System of Georgia, the Governor has an excellent instrument with which to ensure that at the college and university level his education goals are met. The state's system of public colleges and universities - 4 research universities, 2 regional universities, 13 state universities, two state colleges and 13 two-year colleges has a long history of working to prepare Georgians to assume the duties of both citizenship and the workplace. The System, which enrolls more than 200,000 students, has embarked on an ambitious program designed to transfonn itself and the way in which it works with the other state education agencies, the business community and the state's economic development organizations. This program begins with the concept that all activities of the University System of Georgia should be aimed at helping students to succeed and in creating a more educated Georgia. This philosophy is embodied in the 1994 "Vision Statement" of the System's 16-member Board of Regents, that says, in part: "As Georgia emerges as a leader in a global society, the University System of Georgia will lead in access to academic excellence. Among the nation's public universities and colleges, Georgia's will be recognized for fIrst-rate undergraduate education, leading-edge research, and committed public service ... The University System of Georgia and its component colleges and universities will sustain close contact with the people of Georgia, be responsive to the needs of Georgians frrst and foremost while raising their aspirations, and generate a more highly educated populace throughout the state." Since 1994 the regents have developed and implemented a number of policy directives and initiatives directed to that end. These include: a comprehensive plan that integrates all aspects of University System planning (academic, facilities needs, workforce needs, enrollment), master planning for all campuses; refonn of teacher preparation programs; new admissions requirements; cooperative programs with the Department of Technical and Adult Education; the P16 education co-refonn initiative; the Postsecondary Readiness Enrichment Program (PREP) to help at-risk students achieve; major investments in technology such as the GALILEO One Statewide Electronic .Library as well as principles to guide the future integration of technology into higher education; conversion of the System to a semester calendar; and the Intellectual Capital Partnership Program (ICAPP), along with participation in Governor Barnes' Yamacraw program. The University System of Georgia is poised now to undertake a signifIcant new program - a review or "benchmarking" of its activities and institutions to ensure that the state of Georgia is receiving the best possible return for its investment in public higher education. As the fIrst state agency to undergo such an audit process, the Board of Regents are committed to utilizing the results to further refme and direct its activities as it continues to pursue its shared goal with Governor Barnes for a more educated Georgia. Governor Barnes' initiatives target resources to 3 major areas within the University System in FY 2001: facilities, improving access to education and development of high tech research-based economic development. FACILITIES IMPROVEMENT Governor Barnes recommends a total of $210,834,856 in new construction, design, and renovation projects in the Amended FY 2000 Budget. These projects include: a university learning center at Clayton Capital Outlay & Major Repair and Renovation Funds Total Funds: $210,834,856 New Construction, Planning and Design, and Renovations 5118,355,000 Lottery Capital Outlay 540,384,980 Major Repair and Renovation 552,094,876 496 REGENTS, UNIVERSITY SYSTEM OF GEORGIA -- Strategies and Services College and State University ($22,300,000); a technology and commerce center at Columbus State University ($14,930,000); a science and nursing building at Georgia Southern University ($22,890,000); the Camden Center at Coastal Georgia Community College ($16,700,000); and a residence hall at Savannah State University ($6,470,000). The Governor's capital outlay plan is based on a priority list developed by the Board of Regents, and is designed to meet the projected needs of the system as a whole. In addition, Governor Barnes has also authorized $52,094,876 in major repair and rehabilitation (MRR) funds in FY 2001. The MRR fund increase illustrates the Governor's commitment to maintaining and protecting higher education facilities. MOVING TOWARD THE NEW MILLENIUM Under the guidance of the Chancellor and the Board of Regents, the University System of Georgia has focused on several areas that have received significant support from Governor Barnes. Many of these initiatives are critical to the future success of the System. Both the Board of Regents and the Governor have placed considerable emphasis and resources in the areas of system wide higher standards, greater access to higher education for the citizens of Georgia and statewide economic development. RAISING SYSTEM QUALITY AND STANDARDS - Many efforts have been made to increase both the academic standards of the University System and the quality of instruction. In the FY 2001 budget, Governor Barnes supports several on-going initiatives focused on improving education quality and standards. Connecting Teachers and Technology initiative's goal is to increase the number of courses, which integrate technology into the instructional process by preparing teachers in various technologies, to teach via distance learning networks, and to explore the contributions of technology instruction. The Governor recommends $4,820,000 in FY 2001 to continue this initiative. P-16/ Postsecondary Readiness Enrichment Program (PREP) is designed to provide supplementary academic readiness programs for middle school children in at-risk situations who show potential, but may not be able to meet the new admission standards for the University System. The Governor recommends $180,000 for the program in FY 2001. In an effort to provide the system with quality faculty, the Governor recommends six Eminent Scholars in FY 2001 to match private funds for Endowed Chairs in rural economic development at Georgia Southern University ($500,000); history at Gainesville College ($500,000); science at Georgia College and State University ($500,000); biology at North Georgia College and State University ($500,000); policy studies at Georgia State University ($500,000) and maternal and child health at Georgia Southwestern State University ($500,000). IMPROVING ACCESS TO EDUCATION - Because of the Helping Outstanding Pupils Educationally (HOPE) Scholarship Program, a college education is now within the reach of young people from all of Georgia's families. The state is providing opportunities for many students to attend college while keeping quality students in our own state. Governor Barnes recommends continuation funds of $2,000,000 in FY 2001 for the Cooperative Engineering Program. This new program seeks to address three major goals: to produce more engineering engineers with graduate degrees by offering innovative distance learning programs to professionals currently working in the workforce. This initiative seeks to build on the existing strengths of the Georgia Institute of Technology to offer 497 programs in additional areas of the state. The initial implementation is in the Statesboro/Savannah region. Georgia Tech is working with the University System to provide access to existing Master degrees available in electrical and environmental engineering, develop targeted Master of Science degrees in areas such as systems engineering and software engineering, and has developed two cooperative degree programs in the following areas: Bachelor of Science in Computer and Software Engineering and Bachelor of Science with a major in Civil Engineering. These two cooperative undergraduate degree programs provides a new model for engineering delivery to help local areas attract students and produce graduates who will find employment in the region. The first freshmen classes under this initiative were offered in fall 1999. The University of Georgia's "electronic library" system is regarded .as a national model with a remarkable track record in just 4 years of operation. GALILEO has recorded over 11.5 million "hits" or searches. Currently, 34 University System libraries, the Governor's Office, three legislative research offices, 159 public libraries, 192 K-12 school systems/training centers, 34 technical institutes and 38 private educational institutions are linked to the system. The Governor recommends $1,939,000 in lottery funding for GALILEO in FY 2001. Governor Barnes also recommends $4,000,000 in lottery funding in FY 2000 Amended Budget for the GAILEO Interconnected Libraries initiative. The Governor's FY 2001 recommendation includes a continuation item that reflects his commitment to greater access; $527,000 is recommended in lottery funds to continue the Connecting Students and Services Initiative. These funds will maintain current service levels, which improve the access of students to the services required for a successful academic experience. REGENTS, UNIVERSITY SYSTEM OF GEORGIA -- Strategies and Services HIGH TECH RESEARCH BASED ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT - Governor Barnes continues to support two initiatives linked to high tech economic development: the Georgia Research Alliance and the Yamacraw Mission. Funding recommendations for both initiatives exceed $56 million, for the FY 2000 amended and the FY 2001 budgets combined. Together, these initiatives are helping to create an environment in Georgia that 1) is conducive to high tech company growth, 2) improves Georgia's image as an advanced technology state, and 3) produces more high-paying, high-quality jobs for Georgians. The Yamacraw Mission, initiated in FY 2000, aims at making Georgia the preeminent leader in the design of electronics for the communications and" computer industries. The Yamacraw Mission brings together the strengths and expertise of the University System, the Georgia Research Alliance, and the Department of Industry, Trade and Tourism with the express goal of bringing Georgia to the forefront of this emerging high technology sector. Governor Barnes recommends a total of $12,715,672 in additional funding for the Yamacraw Mission in the FY 2000 Amended and FY 2001 budgets. This funding is distributed among the four core areas of the initiative: focused research, educational capacity building, commercialization, and marketing. One million dollars is added to a $4 million base in the FY 2001 Budget to fund focused research in specialized areas of electronics design. This will allow the continuation of work that is currently under way in three areas (Embedded Software, Broadband Access Hardware, and System Prototyping) as well as the initiation of research in new specialized Yamacraw areas. The recommended $6,521,240 for educational capacity building includes funding for new Yamacraw faculty at the 8 participating schools to teach courses and conduct research in Yamacraw fields. Last year alone, Yamacraw schools hired 22 new faculty for this program. This funding will permit the addition of 25 more Yamacraw faculty. Funding is also provided for a new Yamacraw Distance Learning Project, which will allow students at other Yamacraw institutions access to graduate teaching assistants from Georgia Tech. In addition, the Governor's FY 200 I Budget includes funding to attract individuals into Yamacraw fields in Georgia. This will be accomplished from both ends of the workforce spectrum. Over the shortterm, continuing education courses will serve as a tool to generate increased numbers of professionals in Yamacraw fields as well as to attract national attention to Georgia's efforts in this area. Looking towards the longer term, high school students will be exposed to the opportunities in Yamacraw fields in order to generate enrollment in college-level Yamacraw programs in years to come. The FY 2001 recommendation includes $1,570,650 in funding for commercialization. This includes funding for a Venture Capital Director and operating expenses for the fund. In addition, $2.5 million in additional seed funding is recommended in the Amended FY 2000 Budget, bringing total available seed capital to the $5 million target. The Governor also recommends funding for full operation of the Yamacraw Design Center. In the Governor's Amended FY 2000 Budget, $200,000 is provided for the pre-design of a Yamacraw building to house design center staff, university and private sector researchers, and start-up companies. Additional funding is also provided for marketing. The Governor's FY 2001 Budget includes $94,500 for a Technical Human Resources Recruiter to focus on tracking and recruiting existing professionals in Yamacraw fields. The benefits to be gained from this substantial investment are farreaching. By 2005, this initiative aims to add 2,000 high paying 498 engineering jobs to Georgia, locate or see established 10 key companies within the state, and increase fourfold the supply of venture capital available to fledgling Georgia businesses in this industry sector. The project's long- term goal is to build a sustainable economic environment anchored in knowledge-based industries. Along with the funding for the Georgia Research Alliance, discussed below, this recommendation will solidify Georgia's position among technology centers. According to the American Electronics Association, Georgia leads the US in the rate of high technology job creation. In absolute terms, Georgia is second only to Texas in the total number of high tech jobs added. Governor Barnes recommends a $34 million investment in the Georgia Research Alliance (GRA) in the FY 2000 amended and FY 2001 budgets. The total recommendation continues the strategy of recruiting eminent scholars, and providing them with state-of-the-art facilities, equipment, and the vehicles for moving products from R&D to commercialization. The FY 2000 amended investment totals $32.9 million ($3,750,000 in state general funds, $24.2 million in lottery funds, and $5 million of University System funds). This recommendation includes $3.75 million to fund endowments that will be used to recruit 5 additional eminent scholars to Georgia, bringing the total number of GRA endowed chairs to 37. The scholars that are recruited through GRA are not only at the top of their respective scientific fields, but they also have a keen understanding of business. It is this combination of strengths that provides the impetus for economic development and makes the eminent scholar investment the key component ofGRA's success. The amended budget recommendation also includes $3.9 million for facilities' improvements, $2.5 million of which is designated for the completion of the technology development center at the REGENTS, UNIVERSITY SYSTEM OF GEORGIA -- Strategies and Services Environmental Science & Technology Building at Georgia Tech. As usual, the bulk of the recommendation ($20.3 million) concerns the specialized instrumentation that enables the collaborative research and development that have been so successful. Although the Governor recommends funds for all three of GRA's focus areas (advanced communications technology, environmental technologies, and biotechnology) the majority of the recommendation (67%) involves biotechnology. Georgia's investment in this burgeoning field has started to yield dividends. A recent Wall Street Journal article cited Pricewaterhouse- Coopers data showing that venture capital for Georgia's biotechnology companies more than tripled in just one year. This remarkable development has catapulted Georgia into the lead for the Southeast in biotechnology venture investments in 1999. This type of success is often credited to strong research, mechanisms for pushing discoveries from the labs to the market, coordinated management, and venture capital availability. The FY 2000 amended recommendation focuses primarily on support of strong research. The FY 2001 recommendation, totaling $1,050,000, emphasizes marketing and management of research, along with some venture capital. Portfolio management includes determining the investment mix, fostering collaboration among the participating universities and researchers, ensuring that the focus does not veer from economic development, and marketing the core resources funded through GRA to Georgia industry. The Governor recommends $300,000 for these crucial management and marketing activities in state general funds in the FY 2001 budget. Technology development partnerships are GRA's own version of venture capital, allowing quick infusions of small amounts of funds into projects that approach commercialization. The Governor recommends $750,000 in state general funds in the FY 2001 budget for this purpose. In addition, Governor Barnes directs the University System to use $5 million of internal funds for the construction of a biomedical technology development center at the Medical College of Georgia. The mechanisms for turning R&D into commercial products include the "venture capital" provided through the technology development partnerships, as well as management and technology development centers. The latter are based on the successful GCAIT (Georgia Center for Advanced Telecommunications Technology) model and, through an arrangement with AIDC (the Advanced Technology Development Center at Georgia Tech), staffed by experienced AIDC staff. In a related recommendation (not part of the GRA total), the Governor proposes $375,000 in state general funds in the FY 2001 budget to put additional ATDC staff at the Biotechnology Development Center in Atlanta. The center is a partnership between Georgia State University, Georgia Tech, and Emory. TRADITIONAL INDUSTRIES PROGRAM Complementing Governor Barnes' strategy to create a high tech economy through initiatives such as the Georgia Research Alliance and the Yamacraw Mission is his commitment to Georgia's existing industry base. Governor Barnes recommends $1.5 million in FY 2000 amended bonds for equipment in support of research and a continuation budget of $3,935,000 in FY 2001 for the Traditional Industries Program (TIP). TIP focuses on helping Georgia's large existing industry base in food processing, pulp and paper, and carpet, textile, and apparel stay competitive in the face of increasing international competition and technological change. 499 Because of the changes taking place in Georgia's industry base, especially in the pulp and paper and textile and apparel industries, Governor Barnes recommends that $100,000 in the program base be contracted for a study to determine the impact of TIP projects and to suggest future directions for the program. In the food processing area, Governor Barnes recommends that $300,000 be transferred from TIP to the Georgia Environmental Partnership for environmental technical assistance to food processors. The Governor further recommends that $200,000 within TIP be redirected for food processing projects, to include a feasibility study and, if warranted, a business plan for a cooperative food processing plant in South Georgia. The proposed food processing plant would handle the region's excess fruits and vegetables that today go to waste. Instead, they would be processed to create value added projects for the growers. GEORGIA ENVIRONMENTAL PARTNERSHIP The Georgia Environmental Partnership (GEP) is comprised of the Pollution Prevention Assistance Division (p2AD) of the Department of Natural Resources, the Economic Development Institute (EDI) at Georgia Tech, and the Department of Biological and Agricultural Engineering (BAE) at the University of Georgia. GEP's mission is to leverage the fmancial and human resources of its members to provide a coordinated delivery of technical assistance that promotes the adoption of technologies and processes that foster pollution prevention, energy efficiency, and environmental compliance throughout Georgia. GEP seeks to avoid duplication of services among state organizations while providing seamless environmental assistance to business. As part of a larger environmental package, Governor Barnes recommends increasing the funding for GEP by $800,000, REGENTS, UNIVERSITY SYSTEM OF GEORGIA -- Strategies and Services including $300,000 transferred from the Traditional Industries Program. This increases the total funding for GEP to $1.1 million. In the technolo~ transfer arena, the Governor's recommendation includes $90,000 to expand the regional environmental networks, $60,000 to increase the number of workshops and conferences, and $70,000 for a pilot project to foster sustainability awareness and buy-in among business leaders. The latter project is a collaborative with the environmental arm of the Metro Atlanta Chamber of Commerce. In the technical assistance arena, the Governor's recommendation includes $120,000 to meet rising demand for on-site assessments, $60,000 to grow the by- product recovery program (much of which benefits Georgia's agricultural sector), and $100,000 to develop two tools that can help companies to become more sustainable (e.g. full- cost accounting and environmental management systems). GEP efforts benefit all Georgians by helping companies become better stewards of the environment. The companies gain because often better environmental management generates cost savings and increases profitability. The program has perhaps the greatest impact on rural communities, where closure of a company that cannot meet environmental regulations may devastate the local economy. Funding for the Regents' portion of Yamacraw, GRA, Traditional Industries, and the Georgia Environmental Partnership is shown in the Research Consortium object class in the A unit budget. Funding for seed capital and ATDC is found in the B unit budget. OVERALL SYSTEM FUNDING Governor Barnes recommends $1,585,133,398 in FY 2001 for the University System and its attached agencies, not including the pay raise package. This total represents an increase in support not only for traditional programs, but also for new and innovative initiatives that have propelled the University System of Georgia to the forefront of the national higher education scene. The University System of Georgia has continued to achieve the fundamental mission of instruction, research and public service. With continuing support from Governor Barnes, the system will continue to focus on critical areas such as improving academic standards, participating in statewide economic development and increasing access to the system and its resources. STATEWIDE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT The Georgia Tech Research Institute (GTRI) makes major contributions to the state's economic growth through research and development. GTRI's economic importance stems from the out-of-state research dollars generated and spin-off companies created to market GTRI discoveries. Current and former GTRI employees have developed at least 26 such companies. The Governor recommends $10,002,772 in state general funds for GTRI. The Center for Rehabilitation Technology (CRT) is an established interdisciplinary research and design center devoted to applications of technolo~ to alleviate problems of human need, providing service, research, and education under the auspices of Georgia Tech. Governor Barnes recommends $502,297 in FY 2001 funds to renovate the building acquired by CRT for their Advanced Wood Products Laboratory Job Development Program. The Governor also recommends funds of $43,264 for a portable body scanner for this program. These funds will allow CRT to implement their wood processing equipment-training program and implement the initial course. Since 1970, the Marine Extension Service of the University of Georgia has worked to provide assistance to Georgia's $60 million seafood industry. Georgia's seafood 500 processing plants are among the largest in the southeast and employ over 1,600 full-time and seasonal workers. Governor Barnes' FY 2001 recommendation for this agency includes additional funds for a water quality/coastal zone management specialist. The total FY 2001 recommendation for the Marine Extension Service is $1,621,022. The Advanced Technology Development Center (ATDC) at Georgia Tech stimulates the formation of technolo~-based companies and assists in their growth and development. ATDC graduate companies employ over 4,000 people and had a 1999 combined income of over $330 million. Six companies graduated in 1999 and they expect at least seven to graduate in 2000. At the Georgia Institute of Technolo~'s Economic Development Institute (EDI), several initiatives continue to attract new industry to the state and improve the competitiveness of small and medium sized manufacturers. Through new programs such as FaciliTech, EDI provides technical assistance to companies expanding in or moving to Georgia. Facilitech is a state economic development incentive that supports the re-location, expansion or retention of companies by providing in-depth access to specialized technical assistance. Communities across the state use EDI's local impact analysis model (LOCI) to examine the fmancial impact of potential investments. ATDCIEDI funding in FY 2001 is $9,018,343. THE VISION OF GEORGIA'S UNIVERSITY SYSTEM - All initiatives and developments must be consistent with the vision of the University System of Georgia. The 3 basic programs of the System are instruction, research and public service. RESIDENT INSTRUCTION - The "A" Unit of the University System budget funds resident instruction at all 34 institutions and represents the largest commitment of money and personnel. The resident instruction REGENTS, UNIVERSITY SYSTEM OF GEORGIA -- Strategies and Services portion of the FY 2000 Budget was $1,407,280,159. For FY 2001, the Governor recommends $1,397,395,170. Resident instruction is formula-funded and places emphasis on enrollment. RESEARCH - System research funds are generated by the formula. However, additional funds are recommended to support the research functions of several "B" Unit activities. Governor Barnes recommends that the "B" Unit receive $176,772,228 in state funds for FY 2001. Research projects conducted by the University System's institutions increase the national prestige of the system as a whole. Georgia creates research opportunities and reaps the benefits of pure and applied research fmdings. One important research activity is the Agricultural Technology Research Program at Georgia Tech. This program conducts a diverse range of Agribusiness research focused in five strategic areas of need in the industry: automation, environment, food safety (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points), worker safety and information systems. Researchers continue to explore the use of advanced computer vision and wearable computer technology systems. Another important research function is the University of Georgia's Agricultural Experiment Station. The mission of this unit is to conduct research and provide information on the factors that influence agriculture in Georgia. Current research efforts focus on the environment, food safety, poultry and cotton production and developing Worldwide Web pages to enhance electronic information dissemination. The total FY 2001 recommendation for the Agricultural Experiment Stations is $44,346,436. These funds include a recommendation of $397,110 to increase funds for maintenance and utility expenses. FY 2001 State Funds Unit B Recommendation - $176,772,228 Other 21% Medical Education and Research 20% Marine Education and Research 3% Economic amd Industrial Development 11% Agriculture Research and Extension 45% PUBLIC SERVICE - Service activities provide assistance to groups or individuals outside the traditional classroom. The "A" Unit provides extensive continuing education classes and receives funds for Public Service Institutes such as the State Data Center at Georgia Tech and the Carl Vinson Institute of Government at the University of Georgia. Many other service activities are funded through the "B" Unit. The Cooperative Extension Service, based at the University of Georgia, is one such program. The principal focus of the program is agriculture - embracing the food and fiber industries, horticulture, natural resources and the environment. In addition, the Cooperative Extension Service supports programs in home economics and the statewide 4-H initiative. This year, the Governor recommends funds for four new county agents and two assistants to aid in service delivery to 501 communities. The recommendation includes additional funds for the following positions: crops scientist, forage crops scientist, turfgrass scientist, poultry scientist, ornamental plant pathology scientist and a poultry and livestock pest management scientist. The total FY 200 I Budget recommendation for the Cooperative Extension Service is $36,081,555. This includes enhancement items of $179,628 to increase their funds for maintenance and utility expenses and $715,500 for the described positions. The Medical College of Georgia Hospital and Clinics serves as the teaching hospital for the University System and focus on meeting the medical and health care needs of the citizens of Georgia. The hospital and clinics support services in local communities through various outreach initiatives such as telemedicine or community clinics. The total FY 2001 recommended REGENTS, UNIVERSITY SYSTEM OF GEORGIA -- Strategies and Services budget for the hospital and clinics is $35,139,071. Since its establishment in 1982, the Georgia Public Telecommunication Commission (GPTC) has pushed towards its mission: to create, produce, and distribute high quality programs and services that educate, inform, and entertain audiences and enrich the quality of their lives. To carry out its mission, GPTC operates nine television stations and 13 radio stations statewide Georgia Public Telecommunications Commission's state-of-the-art broadcast and production center, the most technologically advanced public broadcasting facility in the country, has been in operation since August 1997. The new digital environment - the television technology of the new millennium - has greatly expanded the capabilities of Georgia Public Broadcasting. PeachStar - the Commission's educational service's satellite delivery system has continued to provide quality programming for every Georgia school and any other institution statewide that is equipped with a satellite dish. The Commission also has other channels available for statewide teleconferences and professional development. Special statewide "town hall meetings" can be held in one of the large studios offered at the. new facility enabling information dissemination. Training performed this way can assist every state agency and the constituent groups they serve in reducing travel expenses, traffic and air pollution as well as time away from the office and ensuring that everyone has the same information at the same time. Tapes are made of the sessions/programs and can be shared with those unable to attend or with new individuals when they join an organization. In addition to video capabilities, Georgia Public Broadcasting is able to distribute data via satellite to sites across the state and the nation. These data streams-which can include program schedules, bulletin boards, calendar information, newsletters, teacher's guides, lesson plans, Quality Core Curriculum correlation material, student activity materials, public service material, and emergency information - ensure equal access to important information in a timely, efficient and economical manner to all areas of the state. With every public school, regional library and college and technical institution equipped with satellite technology, these entities have the capability to receive educational programming from over 25 satellites. GPTC also purchased a satellite transponder, allowing the state to broadcast educational programming to every Georgia school and any other institution statewide that has a satellite dish. Distance learning programming has expanded educational opportunities for Georgia students. The Governor recommends for FY 2001, $20,438,459 in general funds for personnel and operating expenses and $2,000,000 in lottery funds for the purchase of additional educational programming. Governor Barnes also recommends $2,800,000 in Amended FY 2000 Budget bonds for GPTC to address the Federal Communications Commission's mandate that all public television stations convert to a digital signal by 2003. 502 REGENTS, UNIVERSITY SYSTEM OF GEORGIA Results-Based Budgeting Program Summaries INSTRUCTION PURPOSE: To assist students in receiving certificates, associate, bachelor, master and doctoral degrees in order to produce a more educated citizenry who can earn economic and social benefits.

Other duties include the registration and licensing of motor vehicles and the regulation of tobacco and alcoholic beverages. In a typical year, the department processes over 16 million documents, maintains millions of taxpayer accounts and registers over 7.5 million motor vehicles. TAX ADMINISTRATION AND COLLECTION For the fiscal year ending June 30, 1999, a total of $12.5 billion in net state revenues were collected. The major taxes and fees collected by the department are: Individual and Corporate Income Taxes. Sales and Use Taxes. Motor Fuel Taxes. Alcoholic Beverage Taxes. Tobacco Taxes. Miscellaneous Taxes and Fees. The department also collects about $3 billion in taxes designated for local entities. The first of these is a 1% sales tax in Fulton and DeKalb Counties that is used as dedicated revenue for the construction and operation of the Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority (MARTA). The other 1% sales tax designated for local entities are the local option sales tax, the special purpose tax, and the educational and homestead optional sales taxes. Only 5 counties do not have a local option sales tax designated for county operations. This tax remains in effect until the voters decide to remove it. The special purpose tax differs from the local option tax because it remains in effect for up to 5 years. The special purpose tax is in effect in 125 counties and is used primarily for road and capital improvements. The Homestead Option Sales and Use Tax Act, which became effective July 1, 1997, allows a county which had not imposed a local option sales tax as of July 1, 1997 to levy, with voter approval, an additional 1% homestead sales tax. The funds a county collects from the 1% homestead sales tax must be used for non-school system capital improvements and services within that county. Presently, of the five counties eligible for the 1% homestead sales tax, DeKalb County is the only county imposing this sales tax. The Act also permits a county to levy an additional 1% educational sales tax. The revenue a county receives from the 1% educational sales tax can only be spent on capital improvements and bond retirement pertaining to that county's school system. By June 1999, 124 counties had adopted the 1% educational sales tax. MOTOR VEHICLE REGISTRATION AND LICENSING Every motor vehicle, trailer and truck tractor, with certain exceptions, must be registered through the appropriate county tag agent's office, which is the County Tax Collector or County Tax Commissioner. The county tag agent also collects the ad valorem tax and processes applications for tags and/or renewal decals for motor vehicles. The Department of Revenue's Motor Vehicle Division issues and maintains the file system for titles and registrations of over 7.5 million vehicles in the state. REGULATION OF ALCOHOL AND TOBACCO The Department of Revenue enforces all laws and regulations concerning the manufacture, possession, transportation and sale of alcoholic beverages and cigarettes within the state. The department's Alcohol and Tobacco Division has the following duties: Enforces laws and regulations concerning alcohol and tobacco products and taxes. Inspects alcohol beverage licensees for compliance with state laws and regulations. Investigates all liquor license applicants. Confiscates contraband alcohol and tobacco products. Assists and coordinates law enforcement actions with other enforcement agencies. ORGANIZATION To accomplish its duties, the Department of Revenue has 10 divisions reporting to the State Revenue Commissioner. Each division has a role in the administration of tax laws lind the collection of taxes and fees. The divisions are: Administrative Division. Internal Administration Division. Compliance Division. Information Systems Division. Motor Vehicle Division. Taxpayer Accounting Division. Income Tax Division. Alcohol and Tobacco Division. Property Tax Division. Sales and Use Tax Division. ATTACHED AGENCY The State Board of Equalization is attached to the Department of Revenue for administrative purposes only. The board provides for appointment and retention of hearing officers whose function is to hear and determine appeals by local governing authorities on issues relating to the disapproval of county tax digests by the Commissioner of Revenue. AUTHORITY Title 48 of the Official Code of Georgia Annotated. 541 DEPARTMENT OF REVENUE Strategies and Services The Department of Revenue is responsible for the collection of$12.5 billion in taxes, processing 16 million tax documents, issuing almost $1 billion in tax refunds, and distributing over $1.5 billion to local governments each year. The pie graph below depicts the different types of taxes collected by the Department of Revenue and the percent each type of tax is in regard to total tax collections. The state's ability to deliver government services to its citizens and visitors depends on the department's ability to unerringly administer the state's tax laws. MODERNIZATION Recognizing the importance of the department's functions, Governor Barnes will continue the implementation of the "Blueprint for Modernization" which will stabilize systems and enhance the department's management and tax systems. To date, $46,692,621 has been committed to the process. In order to continue the program at an aggressive rate, the Governor has recommended $23,074,773 in the FY 2000 Amended Budget and $4,902,668 in the FY 2001 Budget. The "Blueprint for Modernization" contains specific, targeted solutions in the form of a comprehensive plan that will modernize some functional aspect in every division in the department. The department is actively instituting elements from each of the plan's five distinct parts. The department has improved the manner in which information technology projects are aged and monitored, including the new sales tax system and the new motor vehicle registration and title information system that went on line in September 1999. In addition to the new projects, the department has completed the massive rewrite projects of several major systems. The rewritten projects have been implemented and tested to ensure Year 2000 compliance. The advent and employment of electronic technology has had and will continue to have a major impact on how taxpayers and the department interact with one another. The department expanded its Internet web page to allow taxpayers access to various tax forms and publications. During the first six months of FY 2000 over 1,600,000 tax forms and publications were downloaded from the website. Other areas that utilize electronic technology include electronic filing of income tax, electronic tag transmission from the counties and imaging of all types of tax documentation. Department of Revenue Sources of Tax Collections Total FY 1999 Collections $12.5 Billion Individual Income Tax 47% Sales and Use Tax 39% Corporate Income Tax 7% Motor Fuel Tax 4% Motor Vehicle Fees 2% 542 DEPARTMENT OF REVENUE - Strategies and Services RETURNS PROCESSING The department receives and processes millions of tax returns and payments from individuals and businesses each year. In FY 1999, the department processed 8.2 million tax returns and applications. Traditionally, the department has processed these returns and payments in a labor and paper intensive manner that is cumbersome and time- consuming. By implementing information technology initiatives designed to streamline and eliminate several of the labor intensive steps of the returns and payment processes, the department will be able to improve compliance, ease the burdens of reporting tax collections and speed the issuance of distributions. The expansion of electronic fund transfer, direct deposit of refunds and electronic filing will greatly enhance the current tax systems. Electronic fund transfer provides for the immediate transfer of funds from a taxpayer's account to the department; thus, eliminating the cycle time between receipt of payments and the depositing of those payments. Direct deposit allows taxpayers to have their returns deposited directly into their accounts. In FY 1999, over 211,000 taxpayers chose direct deposit as their method of receiving a refund. Processing returns that are submitted electronically is the most cost- efficient manner. The cost of processing returns manually is 62% greater than processing returns filed electronically and the error rate for electronically filed returns is 1% as compared to a 17% error rate for traditional mail returns. JOINT ELECTRONIC FILING Georgia, is the leader in the Joint FederaVState Electronic Filing Program. As a program participant, Georgia full-year residents receiving refunds may file both their federal and state returns electronically with the Internal Revenue Service. The Internal Revenue Service functions as a conduit and transmits the state returns electronically to the department. In FY 1999, the department experienced a 27% increase in electronically filed returns over FY 1998. More than 660,000 returns were filed electronically. During tax year 1999 the program will be expanded to include nonresident filers and part-year residents. This would allow taxpayers who move into the state, move out of the state or who in another state but work in Georgia to file electronically. This program is very popular with tax professionals and taxpayers because returns are filed more efficiently, and taxpayers receive their refunds in less time than if they filed their returns through the mail. Refunds for electronic filing are normally issued within 21 days with an error rate of less than 2%. These efforts will reduce current and future manpower requirements, . provide convenient service, improve efficiency, reduce errors and improve compliance. INTEGRATED TAG AND TITLE SYSTEM Motor vehicle tag and title operations are the most regular and direct points of contact that each vehicle owner in Georgia has with county and state government. The Motor Vehicle Division processes nearly 2.4 million title applications, 7.5 million tags. The Motor Vehicle Division undertook the task of replacing the current tag and title system that had been in use since the late 1970's. The new system which went online on September 7, 1999 is called GRATIS, or Georgia Registration and Title Information System. The system integrated the processing of tags and titles into one system that has been deployed in 129 of the state's 159 counties. Of the state's 7.5 million vehicle owners, 85% of the owners have their vehicles registered in counties that are part of the new system. To bring each of the counties online with one database in Atlanta that all users will update, the state provided more than $5 million to procure the necessary hardware, software and telecommunications network equipment. The state also developed an extensive training program for the 1,200 county employees and state headquarters staff to master the new system. GRATIS will reduce the time that it takes to obtain a vehicle title from 15 working days to 2 working days. The reduction was accomplished by empowering the county tag office personnel to perform title processing tasks previously performed exclusively at the state headquarters. All law enforcement personnel now have access to vehicle ownership data that is updated on a real time basis, meaning as soon as the information is entered into GRATIS, all enforcement personnel can search and retrieve the information instantly. The long range goal of GRATIS will be enhance the system to enable owners to renew license plates via the World Wide Web. TAXPAYER BILL OF.RIGHTS During the 1999 legislative session, one of the Governor's major initiatives that passed, was legislation that is known as the Taxpayer Bill of Rights. The initiative is designed to protect the right of individual property owners and improve the administration of property tax laws. The department has begun the implementation process by including many of the points from the Bill of Rights in the new Appraisal Manual for County Appraisal Staff. Additionally, the department is conducting statewide investigations into any attempts by counties to circumvent the new by performing unusual and/or unwarranted increase in ad valorem tax assessments. Lastly, the department will have a stronger presence in the field to enforce the new tax laws by virtue of the new senior auditor and technology support that the Governor has recommended. 543 DEPARTMENT OF REVENUE Results-Based Budgeting Program Summaries TAX ADMINISTRATION AND ENFORCEMENT PURPOSE: Administer and enforce state tax laws and provide taxpayer assistance in order to maximize and promptly collect revenues to help fund state and local government programs.

The commission's primary responsibilities include: Overseeing the administration of the commission. Coordinating Georgia's 40 Soil and Water Conservation Districts. Providing educational programs on the conservation of state soil and water resources. Developing and implementing conservation programs. Reviewing and approving watershed projects under the Watershed Protection and Flood Prevention Act. Assisting and guiding districts and other entities with provisions of the Erosion and Sedimentation Act of 1975. Providing information on the prevention of agricultural non-point pollution. In FY 1999, the commission conducted 52 erosion and sediment control workshops, and was successful in preventing the erosion of over 1.1 million tons of soil through its conservation programs. The commission reviewed 8,943 erosion control plans under the Erosion and Sedimentation Act of 1975. Overall, 706,785 acres of Georgia land received conservation treatment. Commission members are appointed by the Governor to serve 5 year terms. There are 5 commission members in all, one of whom is designated chairman. Commission members act in an advisory capacity to guide and direct commission activities. The commission has 2 divisions: COMMISSION AND DISTRICT ADMINISTRATION This division is responsible for ensuring that the policies and programs of the commission are carried out. Its activities include providing administrative, clerical and limited technical support to the 40 State Conservation DistrIcts and their 370 district supervisors. DISTRICT REGIONAL AND OFFICE OPERATIONS This division is primarily responsible for providing field support to districts; providing technical assistance to landowners and governmental units; reviewing erosion and sediment control plans submitted for land-disturbing activities; and assisting groups and individuals in urban and rural settings in applying conservation practices. The division also provides demonstration projects, tours, and seminars on recycling, composting, agricultural non-point pollution, and other conservation practices. AUTHORITY Title 2 of the Official Code of Georgia Annotated. 568 STATE SOIL AND WATER CONSERVATION COMMISSION Strategies and Services Georgia's total area consists of roughly 36.7 million acres ofland and 1 million acres of water. The programs and services provided by the Soil and Water Conservation Commission help protect Georgia's landscape and ensure that it remains a valuable resource to its inhabitants. Increased urban and rural development, coupled with man's concern for the environment, necessitates the state's efforts to conserve its natural resources. Developing and implementing conservation practices are the basis for most of the commission's programs and services. Commission technicians provide assistance to landowners and local governments, review erosion control plans, and protect soil by using resource management systems. RESOURCE SPECIALIST PROGRAM The Resource Specialist program was begun in FY 1997 to replace the County Conservation Grant program, which had been established in 1987 to help federal farm aid recipients meet the requirements of the 1985 Food Security Act. When the County Conservation Grant program successfully met its original goals in 1995, the commission envisioned the Resource Specialist program as a more cost-effective way to provide statewide technical assistance. In FY 1997 and FY 1998, 3 resource specialists were funded to assist with conservation work in the commission's Rome, Statesboro, and Milledgeville regional offices. In FY 1999 and FY 2000, funds were provided to create the last 3 positions in the commission's Atlanta, Albany, and Athens regional offices. The 6 specialists now review erosion and sediment control plans, respond to erosion and sediment control complaints, assist with implementing waste management plans, and provide technical support to the commission's regional representatives. In the past, funding for the Resource Specialist program has come from the redirection of funding from the County Conservation Grant program. In recognition of the fact that the Resource Specialist program now provides statewide coverage, the Governor recommends the fmal phase out of the County Conservation Grant program by redirecting the remaining $58,846 from the County Conservation Grant program. WATERSHEDS The Soil and Water Conservation Districts are sponsors on many of Georgia's Category I (failure may cause loss of life) Watershed Dams, constructed under the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Flood Retardation programs. County or city governments sometimes co-sponsor these dams with the district. These dams are exempt from Georgia's Safe Dams Act, until November 1, 2000. Since 1991, the Soil and Water Conservation Commission and U.S. Natural Resource Conservation Service have been working with the districts, EPD Safe Dams personnel, and local units of government to bring these Category I dams into compliance with the Safe Dams Act. Estimates for maintenance and minor repairs range from $700 to $50,000 per dam. Of the 139 district sponsored structures identified as requiring maintenance upgrades, 20 are now complete, and an additional 61 are under contract with the appropriate local government entity. In addition, plans for upgrades on nine of the structures are under review by the EPD. Once maintenance upgrades are complete, a dam is turned over to local governments to maintain. The cost of major upgrades ranges from $300,000 to $1.5 million per dam. Most dams require detailed hydrologic evaluations, and some require extensive design for major structural upgrades. Of the 26 dams identified as needing major structural upgrades, construction has been completed on 2. Of the remaining 24, the next 8 priority dams are in various pre-construction phases. Two previous bond issues totaling $3.84 million have been dedicated to these structural upgrades. The FY 2001 budget recommends providing $1~5,000 to continue maintenance upgrades. While the commission has not requested capital outlay funds for structural upgrades this year, it has submitted a projection of $7,460,672 for funding needed to complete the remaining upgrades in the years to come. EROSION AND SEDIMENT CONTROL Damage from urban erosion is difficult to assess. While figures are not widely available, erosion from denuded construction sites on Georgia soils can exceed 200 tons of topsoil per acre per year. In 1975, the Erosion and Sedimentation Control Act was passed to control serious soil erosion from development sites. The act requires that all cities and counties adopt erosion and sediment control ordinances. Conservation districts review the erosion and sediment control plans submitted by these cities and counties. Districts also develop Memoranda of Understanding with local governments, who then issue land disturbing permits. The commission is involved in other activities as well. The agency's erosion and sediment control specialists conduct training programs, assist counties with ordinance updates, and conduct seminars. Its Handbook for Erosion and Sediment Control is an accepted reference standard for erosion and sedimentation implementation in Georgia. As the commission has growing demands for erosion and sediment seminars and workshops, the Governor also recommends in FY 2001 one position to coordinate, assistant, give presentations to aid in the commissions efforts. 569 Soil and Water Conservation Commission Results-Based Budgeting Program Summaries SOIL CONSERVATION PURPOSE: Conserve and protect soil, water, and related natural resources by encouraging the application of proper soil erosion and sedimentation practices.

COMMISSION OPERATIONS The commission serves as the executive branch agency designated to receive appropriations of funds for the student fmancial aid programs of the corporation and the authority. Those programs funded through the commission include the Helping Outstanding Pupils Educationally (HOPE) Scholarship Program, other educational scholarship and grant programs supported by both lottery proceeds and state general fund appropriations, and the Governor's Scholarship Program for the Department of Education. GEORGIA HIGHER EDUCATION ASSISTANCE CORPORATION The Georgia Higher Education Assistance Corporation is a nonprofit public corporation of the state and is responsible for administering a program of guaranteed educational loans to eligible students and parents in accordance with state law and the requirements of the Federal Higher Education Loan Act. In FY 1999, the corporation guaranteed over 64,236 new loans for eligible students and parents. The value of those loans exceeded $210 million. Purchases of defaulted loans totaled over $35 million. Approximately $23 million was recovered from loans that were purchased and placed in the default collection process. GEORGIA STUDENT FINANCE AUTHORITY The Georgia Student Finance Authority, a nonprofit public corporation of the state, is responsible for providing student fmancial aid to eligible Georgians through loan, scholarship and grant assistance programs as prescribed by the General Assembly. In FY 1999, the authority disbursed over $39 million in state general funds and agency revenues for over 32,000 students and over $187,000,000 in HOPE Scholarship and other lottery funded grant and scholarship programs for over 140,000 students. The authority is also authorized to be a lender under the Georgia Higher Education Loan Program. In FY 1999, over $55 million in student loans were originated by the authority and the total value of loans serviced exceeded $352 million. The authority has the responsibility of performing all management, supervisory, clerical and administrative functions required by the corporation and the commission. The authority also provides administrative and operational support services, at no state cost, to the Georgia Nonpublic Postsecondary Education Commission (NPEC), which is attached for administrative purposes. ATTACHED AGENCY The Georgia Nonpublic Postsecondary Education Commission is responsible for regulating private postsecondary schools operating in this state in order to protect the fmancial investments ofGeorgians participating in their programs. AUTHORITY O.C.G.A. 20-3-230 et.seq., 20-3-250 et.seq., 20-3-260 et.seq. and 20-3-310 et.seq. 579 GEORGIA STUDENT FINANCE COMMISSION Strategies and Services The continued growth and development of Georgia is directly related to the degree to which educational opportunities are provided to all citizens. It is in the public interest to sustain our public and private postsecondary institutions because oftheir value in promoting the economic and cultural development and prosperity of Georgians. The Georgia educational loan program was created to both expand educational opportunities available to all Georgians and to ensure the continued economic viability of our postsecondary institutions. In addition to administering the Federal Family Education Loan Program (FFELP), Georgia also provides state funds to support service-cancelable loans and a variety of scholarship and grant programs. FEDERAL FAMILY EDUCATION LOAN PROGRAM The Georgia Higher Education Assistance Corporation administers federally guaranteed education loan programs. Through these programs, participating commercial lenders, as well as the Georgia Student Finance Authority, make educational loans to students and the parents of students who need fmancial assistance to continue their education after high school. For these loans, the corporation serves as the "guarantor" to the lenders. Iffor any reason the borrower does not repay the lending institution, the corporation pays the lender an amount prescribed by federal regulation and assumes the obligation for collecting the remaining debt. Since these programs are federally supported, the federal government will reimburse the corporation for most of the defaults, which are purchased from lenders. The federally guaranteed loan programs include the Subsidized Federal Stafford Loan Program, the Unsubsidized Federal Stafford Loan Program, and the Federal Plus Loan. Subsidized Federal Stafford Loan Program--A need based loan program for eligible students attending colleges, vocational, technical, trade or business schools throughout the nation. The loan amount depends on the student's fmancial need, the cost ofattending the school and other fmancial aid awarded. The federal government pays the interest that accrues while the student is in school, during the grace period and any deferment periods. Repayment of the loan must begin within 6 months following graduation or termination from school. Unsubsidized Federal Stafford Loan Program--A non-need based loan program for eligible students attending colleges, vocational, technical, trade or business schools throughout the nation. The borrower is responsible for all interest, which accrues from the date the money is disbursed. Repayment of the loan must begin within 6 months following graduation or termination from school. Federal "Plus" Loan Program-Provides loans to parents ofdependent undergraduate or graduate students to help pay for postsecondary education costs. The loan amount depends on the cost of attending the school and other fmancial aid awarded. Repayment of the loan plus interest must begin within 60 days of receiving the funds. STATE EDUCATIONAL LOAN PROGRAM The Georgia Student Finance Authority is the legal entity, which actually serves as the lender (or limited purpose "bank") for about one-third of the student loans in Georgia. The authority provides loans to help students and parents meet the costs of higher education. As a FFELP lender, the authority makes loans to students and parents that are repayable in regular monthly installments and offers service cancellation benefits in Georgia on eligible Federal Stafford loans. Service cancelable loans help students preparing for professions in which 580 there is a critical manpower shortage in Georgia. Eligible borrowers may cancel their loans by working in the approved fields in Georgia. State funds appropriated to the commission as "Guaranteed Educational Loans" are paid to the authority to support this program. The authority expects to make 848 loans in FY 2001 with the $4,251,455 recommended. GRANT AND SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAMS State, federal and other funds are appropriated to the commission in several unique object classes to support the grant and scholarship programs of the authority. These programs are as follows: Tuition Equalization Grant--A state-funded grant program providing an annual grant to each eligible Georgia student attending an approved private college. The recommendation of $26,586,156 for FY 2001 will provide a $1,000 grant award to approximately 26,586 students. Law Enforcement Personnel Dependents Grant (LEPD)--Provides educational grants of up to $2,000 per academic year to the dependent children of a Georgia law enforcement officer, fireman or prison guard who has been killed or permanently disabled in the line of duty. In FY 2001, $68,000 in state funds will provide approximately 34 grants. North Georgia College ROTC Grant--Provides a state scholarship of $1,500 per year to each full-time Georgia student enrolled in military ROTC training at North Georgia College. Up to 225 students will receive these grants in FY 2001 with the $337,500 recommended. Osteopathic Medical Loan-Provides service-cancelable loans to Georgians accepted for enrollment at an eligible college or university of osteopathic medicine. The loans are based on need with a maximum of $10,000 per year for up to 4 years. A GEORGIA STUDENT FINANCE COMMISSION -- Strategies and Services recipient may cancel the loan by practicing primary care osteopathic medicine in a medically underserved area of this state. The $40,000 in state funds recommended for FY 2001 will provide loans to 4 students. Georgia Military Scholarship-Provides assistance to students to attend North Georgia College and State University. Thirty-three high school seniors are selected each year to receive full 4-year scholarships to North Georgia College. Students must meet strict academic requirements to be eligible and must agree to serve at least 4 years in the Georgia National Guard after graduation. The commission expects to serve 124 students with the $739,412 in state funds recommended for FY 2001. Georgia Military CollegelNorth Georgia College Military Scholarship-Provides assistance to students who graduate from Georgia Military College to transfer to North Georgia College and State University and receive a scholarship for two additional years. The commission expects to serve 10 students with the $60,500 in state funds recommended in FY 2001. Work Incentive for Student Education (WISE)--Provides a student an opportunity to earn up to $1,500 per academic year, with funds credited toward college expenses, for working on campus. The program will continue at three University System institutions and three private colleges and will serve 342 students with the $513,712 state funds recommended in FY 2001. The authority administers 2 scholarship programs for the Georgia Department of Education: Robert C. Byrd Scholarship- Available to Georgia students who demonstrate outstanding academic achievement. The program is intended to promote and recognize student excellence. Byrd Scholars, selected by the Georgia Department of Education, receive a one-time award of$1,500 as entering freshmen for their first year of college study at an eligible U. S. institution. Governor's Scholarship--Provides an annual $1,575 award to Georgia students selected as Georgia Scholars, STAR students, high school valedictorians and salutatorians that go on to attend eligible colleges and universities in this state.

The program, designed to increase higher education participation and completion rates for Georgia students, provides scholarships to all students who meet certain academic requirements, and who attend public colleges, public technical institutions or eligible private colleges in this state. Over the next two years, graduates planning to attend a state college or get a HOPE scholarship will face three rising standards and they are: 1) Starting with the class of2000-a grade point average to qualify for HOPE will come only from core academic subjects (Englishllanguage arts, math, social studies, science and foreign language) instead of all courses. 2) Starting with the class of2001-a fourth year of mathematics will be required to graduate with a college prep diploma that is needed for admission. 3) Also starting with the class of 2001, a formula called the Freshman Index, combining a student's grade point average with SAT scores, will be used to divert applicants below a certain minimum to the state's two-year colleges. The Freshman Index will only be calculated on core academic courses. Students are aware of this higher standard and have been preparing for 5-6 years and already performance is improving. The commission expects to award approximately 144,552 scholarships with the $163,424,513 recommended. The commission also administers the lottery funded Teacher Scholarships ($3,500,000), Promise Scholarships ($975,000), Georgia Military Scholarships ($839,784), Law Enforcement Dependents Grants ($232,330), and Engineer Scholarships ($600,000). Beginning in school year 2001- GEORGIA STUDENT FINANCE COMMISSION -- Strategies and Services 2002, significant improvements will be made in the HOPE scholarship program. First, Governor Barnes recommends that, beginning with FY 2001, the Pell grant offset will be removed for students seeking degrees, or diplomas at eligible colleges or technical institutes. The scholarship amount each student receives will be the cost of tuition, eligible fees, and a book allowance, leaving those students who are eligible for a Pell grant the opportunity to use their Pell funds towards the cost of their room, board and other expenses. Second, Governor Barnes recommends that sophomores in the HOPE scholarship program whose average drops below a "B" average will be eligible to regain HOPE for their senior year if their cumulative grade point average (GPA) rises to a "B" average or better at the end oftheir junior year. He also recommends that seniors who had not previously qualified for HOPE but who attain a cumulative "B" average at the end of their junior year receive HOPE for their senior year. This change in policy will encourage junior level students to achieve academically in order to enter or re-enter HOPE as seniors. Also recommended by the Governor for FY 200 I is a change to the Promise Teacher Scholarship program. Currently, the program provides up to $6,000 in cancelable loans to high achieving undergraduate students (beginning the junior year with a 3.6 GPA and continuing the senior year) who aspire to be teachers in Georgia public schools. The Governor recommends that rising juniors with a cumulative GPA of 3.2 will be eligible for a Promise Scholarship. The Governor further recommends a change to the mandatory fee policy under the HOPE scholarship program. HOPE currently pays all mandatory fees charged by a public college or technical institute. Over time, the types of fees charged to students and the amount charged varies between schools and fees charged have steadily increased. Governor Barnes recommends placing a cap at individual institutions that is based on current activity, health and transportation fees. Athletic and special recreation or facility fees are not included in the cap, but institutions will be allowed to implement a HOPE eligible technology fee ofup to $50 at research institutions and $38 at four and two year institutions. The cap at institutions that currently have a $75 technology fee will be based on the current amount. REGULATION OF NONPUBLIC POSTSECONDARY EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS The Nonpublic Postsecondary Education Commission regulates certain proprietary schools and postsecondary education institutions operating in the state, including public and private schools outside the state, which offer Georgians degree or certificate programs by mail, telecommunications or other means. The commission's regulatory activities include establishing standards relating to the quality ofinstructional programs offered, ethical and business practices, health and safety, and fiscal responsibility. The commission's staff conducts audits and reviews ofthe institutions it regulates and licenses the schools and their programs for the protection of Georgia students and their parents. The commission is responsible for establishing and maintaining a Tuition Guaranty Trust Fund with participation fees collected from postsecondary education institutions. The Trust Fund is intended to protect students from fmancial loss when a school closes without reimbursing students and without completing its educational obligations to its students. The commission is required to take possession of the administration and student records of any regulated institution, which ceases to operate. 582 GEORGIA STUDENT FINANCE COMMISSION Results-Based Budgeting Program Summaries ACADENUC ACHIEVEMENT SCHOLARSHIPS PURPOSE: To raise the academic achievement of Georgia's students by providing scholarships for education beyond high school.

Provide initial enrollment-driven formula funding for personal services and operating expenses related to technical education. The agency is to use some of this increase to create a useful life database for equipment and to ensure that its data collection and accounting systems meet the needs of the current and future formula versions. The initial formula represents a fIrst step towards a more refmed, more permanent formula. 2. Fund start-up costs related to information technology certifIcation programs at state technical institutes and Gwinnett Tech. 3. Increase the number of part-time adult literacy teachers. 4. Fund a study of the feasibility of integrating the PINES integrated library system with the University System and technical institute libraries through GALILEO. 8,604,142 2,475,000 234,250 100,000 CAPITAL OUTLAY 1. Implement formula funding for major repairs and rehabilitation based on 1% of square footage (5,985,003) multiplied by $96.64 per square foot, less the amount already in the adjusted base ($330,000) in the Capital Outlay sub-object class "Minor Repairs and Renovations," renamed "Major Repairs and Rehabilitation." The formula amount is expected to cover projects under $1 million, with the types of projects eligible for funding to be approved by the Office of Planning and Budget. 5,453,907 TOTAL ENHANCEMENT FUNDS 16,867,299 TOTAL STATE GENERAL FUNDS 280,984,850 LOTTERY FUNDS 1. Begin initial formula funding for replacement of obsolete equipment based on a state cost share of 10% of the original acquisition price of inventoried equipment. The total formula amount is $20,700,000. The agency is expected to raise some of or all the difference between the state contribution and the full amount. This is an interim formula which may be changed in subsequent years. In particular, the useful life database for inventoried equipment, to be implemented by DTAE, will provide more formula options to consider. 12,500,000 TOTAL LOTTERY FUNDS 12,500,000 TOTAL STATE FUNDS 293,484,850 599 DEPARTMENT OF TECHNICAL AND ADULT EDUCATION Financial Summary Unit A -

The new board was created as an agency separate from the Department of Education in 1987 to provide guidance to public technical institutes operated by the state or by local boards of education. The board was renamed the State Board of Technical and Adult Education in 1988 to govern the newly created Department of Technical and Adult Education (DTAE). With the Savannah Tech and Atlanta Tech conversions to state ownership in FY 1998, the board now oversees 32 state-governed technical institutes (many of which have satellite campuses). In addition, there are 4 technical education divisions housed within 4 of the University System colleges and 1 locally governed public technical institute. The Department of Technical and Adult Education plans and administers state postsecondary technical training at less than the baccalaureate degree level in a unified system of technical institutes. It provides opportunities for students to learn a skill or upgrade an existing skill to keep pace with technology and competition in a world market. Students can pursue lifelong education and training, basic skills and technician training for existing employment opportunities, as well as customized training responsive to the needs of business and industry for a technically trained and highly competitive workforce. Students attending technical institutes have the option of short-term programs as well as courses of study leading, to certificates, diplomas; and associate degrees. These programs can range in duration from a few weeks to 2 years. The department is divided into 5 functional units described below. ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES The administrative services function fulfills overall administrative roles for the Central Office and the 33 technical institutes. These activities include budgeting, accounting, purchasing, asset management, personnel, information technology, public information, facilities management, legal services, planning, and evaluation. TECHNICAL EDUCATION The Office of Technical Education provides leadership, technical assistance, and coordination to the 33 technical institutes and 4 college technical divisions. Focus areas include instructional support services, special services, student support services, workforce development initiatives, and performance accountability. This office is also responsible for joint planning and coordination with other public agencies and organizations to provide Georgia citizens with a seamless education system assuring smooth transitions from secondary to postsecondary education, to work and beyond. QUICK START Quick Start provides employee training services to new and expanding industries at no cost. Quick Start plays a key role in the state's business recruitment and retention efforts by serving as a state training incentive. Supported by DTAE' s network of technical institutes, Quick Start has provided training for new jobs in virtually every technology required by Georgia's manufacturing and service sectors. ADULT LITERACY The Office of Adult LiteracY,through its network of37 service delivery areas throughout the state, promotes and provides adult basic education and literacy programs, including the General Educational Development Testing program that awards GED diplomas. The office is the primary fiscal agent for the U.S. Department of Education adult literacy funds. It is also the largest adult literacy provider for other state agencies and facilitates collaboration among state and local entities to improve literacy efforts for adults needing basic, English literacy, or specialized skills instruction. PUBLIC LIBRARY SERVICES The purpose of the public library system in Georgia is to provide assistance, information, and materials to meet the needs of local communities throughout the state. The Office of Public Library Services assists public libraries in providing access to information, library materials, and enriching learning activities for people of all ages. It administers state and federal funds, and provides: consultation and advice to the library community and local users. continuing education opportunities for library staff, trustees, and local users. The Office of Public Library Services was transferred by legislative act effective July 1, 1996 from the Department of Education to the Department of Technical and Adult Education. The Office of Public Library Services provides assistance and information to 57 public library systems that operate 370 public libraries statewide, in addition to operating the state's Library for the Blind and Physically Handicapped. The Library for the Blind and Physically Handicapped provides public library services for users who are unable to see or otherwise use standard print materials. This library and its network of 13 sub-regional libraries for the blind and physically handicapped are the only sources of recorded and Braille materials for these users. AUTHORITY Title 20 of the Official Code of Georgia Annotated. 605 DEPARTMENT OF TECHNICAL AND ADULT EDUCATION Strategies and Services Georgia's technical institutes are continuing to experience steady enrollment growth, with a credit enrollment of 93,431 in FY 1999, 51% of which was part-time enrollment. The Department of Technical and Adult Education (DTAE) continues to place high priority on initiatives with high schools and with Georgia's colleges and universities, striving to make the transition from one system to the other as seamless as possible. DTAE was an active participant in the Governor's Education Reform Study Commission (GERSC), in particular on the funding and seamless education committees. Several of Governor Barnes' budget recommendations for the department stem from GERSC initiatives. FORMULA FUNDING When Governor Barnes took office, he made a commitment to DTAE that adult technical education would be funded based on an enrollment-driven formula, like the other two major education agencies. The development of such a formula became one of the charges to GERSC, and resulted in a preliminary formula to be implemented with the FY 2001 budget. The initial formula is an appropriation formula, as opposed to an allocation formula. This means that discretion for fund allocation remains with the board. The formula consists of a personal services component, an operating component, a major repair and rehabilitation component, and a component for the replacement of obsolete equipment. The formula should be considered only a fIrst step toward a permanent formula for adult technical education. The personal services component of the formula is based on 5 weighted program clusters: general education! development, industrlaVscience tech, business, health, and public service. Each cluster generates a different dollar amount per credit hour. The formula is set up so that FY 1999 credit hours generate FY 2001 dollars. Based on these figures, the Governorrecommends $7,349,156 for state technical institutes. Gwinnett Tech experienced a drop in the clusters generating more dollars for its object class, and would lose money under this formula. The four Regents' programs lost total credit hours, and would also lose money. The Governor recommends holding Gwinnett Tech and the Regents' programs harmless for FY 2001. The operating component is based on $4.74 per square foot, and generates $28,373,669 for FY 2001. The Governor recommends $1,254,986 to annualize the operating costs of new facilities. The major repairs and rehabilitation component is patterned on Regents' Major Repairs and Rehabilitation Fund. Based on 1% of DTAE's total square footage as listed in the Georgia Building Authority inventory (5,985,003), times $96.64 per square foot, this. formula generates an additional $5,783,907 for the department in FY 2001. The Governor recommends $5,453,907 in addition to the $330,000 already in the Capital Outlay object class for this purpose, fully funding the formula. This fund is to cover projects under $1 million in magnitude. Before the department allocates these funds, agreement must be reached with the Office of Planning and Budget as to what range of activities should be funded under this category. This is necessary so that these activities can be distinguished from normal, routine maintenance funded in the regular operating budget and from other capital outlay projects funded through the regular capital outlay budget process. Finally, the obsolete equipment replacement component is based on the original acquisition price of all TOTAL (FULL-TIME AND PART-TIME) CREDIT ENROLLMENT FY 1990 TO FY 1999 100,000 90,000 81,398 93,431 80,000 69,327 70,000 60,000 50,000 40,000 30,000 20,000 10,000 o 1990 1991 1992 1993 1994 1995 1996 1997 1998 1999 606 DEPARTMENT OF TECHNICAL AND ADULT EDUCATION -- Strategies and Services inventoried equipment. The FY 2001 recommendation supports the department's $20.7 million request, and provides $12.5 million in lottery funds as the state cost share. These funds should meet all of the department's needs for nonconstruction related instructional equipment. Further refmements of the formula should lead to greater sophistication. However, revisions depend upon the department collecting data in ways that support more detail. Specifically, future formula revisions are likely to take into account administrative versus instructional costs (which are now treated as equal), average costs versus (decreasing) marginal costs, cost variability for distance learning, performance, and a number of other issues. Because of these issues, parts of the formula will likely be in flux over the next few years. However, increasing credit enrollment should continue to yield additional funds for the department. This should ensure a steady stream of trained workers for the state. NEW CONSTRUCTION Governor Barnes also recognizes the need for new facilities to support the growing enrollment at technical institutes. The Governor recommends $75 million in bonds in the FY 2000 amended budget for new construction. The majority of the projects were funded for predesign last year, leaving 9 more in the pipeline for future years. In addition to the $75 million, the Governor recommends $5,313,866 in lottery funds in the FY 2000 amended budget for equipment for construction projects mostly funded in previous years. This recommendation covers the part of the request that will be needed during FY 2001, based on current construction schedules. COWETA CENTRAL EDUCATION CENTER As part of the initiatives coming out of the Governor's Education Reform Study Committee (GERSC), Governor Barnes is recommending $7 million in the Department of Community Affairs' FY 2000 amended budget for the construction of a wing to accommodate technical education for the Coweta Central Education Center (CEC). The Coweta CEC provides the Governor an opportunity to pilot resource sharing and seamless education concepts that the Seamless Education Committee of the GERSC supported. The Coweta Central Education Center is a collaborative among Coweta County civic and business community groups, the Coweta County School System, Carroll Tech, State University of West Georgia, Clayton College and State University, Georgia Military College, DTAE, and the Department of Education. The idea for the center grew out of concerns in the community about dropout rates, the preparation of high school students for the workforce, and the number of technically trained workers available for hire by local businesses. The result was an initiative with four aspects in particular that makes it an ideal pilot project for the GERSC. First, the rallying of community and education organizations around a common cause is really what made the initiative possible. The Central Education Center appears to have total community support, resulting in real commitments to take the initiative forward. These commitments include substantial NEW CONSTRUCTION FY 2000 Amended Recommendation* Griffin Tech Altanta Tech Moultrie Tech Albany Tech Savannah Tech Macon Tech Augusta Tech Savannah Tech Sandersville Tech TBA Technology Building Multipurpose Building Phase 1 ofNew Campus Computer Technology Building Occupational Technology Building HR/IT/Child Development Building Classroom/Student Services Building Liberty County Campus Hancock County Center Contingencies $9,775,178 $7,044,220 $16,942,134 $7,418,258 $8,965,680 $9,353,555 $9,015,312 $5,026,480 $692,500 $766,683 Total $75,000,000 * Amounts listed should be viewed as estimates.

Secondly, the needs of the business community are driving the curriculum for the Central Education Center. The initiative started out with a needs assessment, and plans have progressed based on the fmdings of that assessment. Third, the initiative is a good example of resource sharing. The CEC will serve three high schools, with not only technical courses (most for secondary and postsecondary credit) but also hard-to-fill advanced academic classes. For instance, a single high school may not have enough students to warrant a class in Advanced Placement Calculus, but the combined demand from all three participating high schools may make the class a viable course offering for students. Furthermore, the CEC will offer an evening high school, adult basic education, GED preparation, and customized training. The building will rarely stand empty. Finally, the collaborative is committed to the idea of seamless transition from high school to work and postsecondary education. The goal is to provide as many opportunities as possible for high school students to graduate from high school with not only a high school diploma, but also a technical certificate of credit, a diploma, or even a two-year degree. Through articulation agreements, some of the coursework will also count toward degrees at the State University of West Georgia and Clayton College and State University. That means that some high school students may earn triple credit for certain courses. They will also gain valuable skills through the work-based opportunities the CEC business partners have committed to providing. In addition, many business partners will serve as mentors for students and participate actively in school activities. The four aspects outlined above show the strength of this pilot project. It is this strength and, in particular, the support the CEC and the Governor's education reform efforts enjoy in the community, that make the initiative deserving of state funding. Governor Barnes intends to follow the progress of the Central Education Center closely, in order to fmd out if and how it could be duplicated elsewhere. MICROSOFT CERTIFICATION INITIATIVE Recognizing the need for more information technology workers, the Governor is recommending $2,475,000 for DTAE to increase its capacity to provide training leading to Microsoft certification. This initiative puts a certified instructor at every state technical institute as well as Gwinnett Tech. DTAE is the national pilot site for the Microsoft Academic Professional Development Center, which allows DTAE to train faculty members to teach Microsoft Authorized Academic Training Program (AATP) courses to students. Microsoft's AATP is a formal technology training and support program designed to equip students with the skills needed for careers as network managers, system administrators, and application programmers. The instruction is intended to prepare students for Microsoft certified exams. These programs will be available to technical institute credit students. GEORGIA VIRTUAL TECHNICAL INSTITUTE The Georgia Virtual Technical Institute (GVTI) continues to be a priority for Governor Barnes. Webbased instruction expands the availability of technical education beyond the confmes of technical institute facilities. In the fall of 1999, GVTI offered 93 courses and had a total enrollment of 779 students. This represents almost a 500% increase in students and a 440% increase in courses over the previous fall. Since GVTI generates credit, funding for this initiative is included within the formula. ADULT LITERACY Even though the adult literacy 608 program enrolls increasing numbers of students, Georgia's literacy rates continue to lag. A study by the National Institute for Literacy ranks Georgia lOth in the nation as measured by percent of population at the lowest level of literacy. According to the study, as many as 23% of Georgia's adult population performs at the lowest level of literacy. This means that they cannot read a map or fill out a simple form. A total of 54% of adult Georgians perform at the lowest two levels. Low literacy skills contribute to poverty, welfare dependence, low incomes, unemployment, crime, and a cycle of illiteracy that follows generation to generation. Illiteracy is a complex social problem that requires solutions that cut across agencies and involves entire communities. The issue will be one of many tackled by the Governor's new Workforce Investment Board. In addition, the Governor recommends $700,459 for DTAE to hire additional part-time literacy instructors in areas of particular need. PUBLIC LIBRARY RESOURCES Materials' acquisition funding for public libraries is built on a base grant to regional libraries in the amount of $3,600 per region, an additional $1,000 incentive grant to systems with more than two counties within that system, plus additional funding based on population. Each year this portion of the grant is adjusted for population changes within a system at $0.56 per capita. For FY 2001, Governor Barnes recommends increasing the amount of population funding for library systems to $0.60 per capita, bringing the total state funding to $4,809,721 for materials. This is the first increase to the formula since 1994. Materials, of course, are no longer limited to books, magazines, and journals that patrons can check out. In addition to more traditional information sources, library patrons now have access to all the resources of the Internet and GALILEO DEPARTMENT OF TECHNICAL AND ADULT EDUCATION -- Strategies and Services (Georgia Library Learning Online), a statewide electronic library system. GALILEO houses over 100 databases that index thousands of periodicals and journals, and provides access to over 2,000 journals in full text. GALILEO also includes an encyclopedia, business directories, and government publications, as well as links to Georgia law and many state agency home pages. In FY 1999, library patrons registered more than 360,000 "hits" on GALILEO, a 65% increase over FY 1998. Internet access is currently available at 157 of the state's library facilities. All remaining facilities should be connected by the end of 2001. PINES INTEGRATED LIBRARY SYSTEM The PINES (Public Information Network for Electronic Services) Integrated Library System began in FY 2000 as a way for 100 public libraries that did not meet Y2K requirements to become compliant. PINES has not only met its short-term goal, but has developed into a powerful tool that will give all citizens of Georgia access to resources in libraries across the state. The system is the means by which books and materials are tracked and circulated to the general public. As libraries move forward in a 5-year plan to expand PINES to all 370 public libraries, the system will allow one centralized, Internet-based tracking system in the state for circulation, cataloging, interlibrary loan, acquisitions, and community information among others. This will give all citizens equal access to collections and information in all Georgia public libraries. It will also be a useful tool for school teachers to identify and access resources for students. Because of its potential, Governor Barnes has designated $423,980 in the FY 2001 budget for technical support for further implementation and operation of PINES and $1,561,388 for support for the 100 libraries scheduled to begin using the system in January 2000. PUBLIC LIBRARY ACCOUNTING SYSTEM The FY 2001 budget recommendation also includes $491,101 to provide central office programming and help desk support for SAMSON, the Office of Public Library Services' new accounting system. This system replaced the GENESIS accounting system that was outdated and did not meet Y2K requirements. SAMSON will be tailored to meet the accounting needs of public libraries and is Y2K compliant. Since DTAE did not have state funds for necessary maintenance and technical support services for SAMSON in FY 2000, the agency supported these functions through Y2K funds. For FY 2001, the recommended state funds for SAMSON will meet one of the Office of Public Library Services' most critical budget needs. REPAIRS AND ~NOVATIONS FOR PUBLIC LIBRARIES In FY 1999 a study was funded to evaluate the condition of all 370 public libraries. Based on this study, Governor Barnes recommends $2,875,000 in bonds in the FY 2000 amended budget to cover 50% of the cost for major repairs and renovations at over 250 public libraries. Included in the repair and renovation program are carpet replacement, HVAC repairs or replacement, structural improvements, window repairs, and roof repairs or replacements. 609 DEPARTMENT OF TECHNICAL AND ADULT EDUCATION Results-Based Budgeting Program Summaries TECHNICAL EDUCATION PURPOSE: Provide students with career, occupational, and technical skills to obtain employment, retain employment, and/or achieve job advancement.

AUTHORITY Titles 6 and 32 of the Official Code of Georgia Annotated. 621 DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION Strategies and Services The Department of Transportation's historic focus has been on building and maintaining the state's network of roads and bridges. The vast majority of its funds, both state and federal, are dedicated to this purpose. Indeed,. Georgia is recognized nationally as having a superior highway system due primarily to the department's efforts and emphasis on roads and maintenance. The high quality of Georgia's transportation system has been essential to the economic success and growth of the state. But the department faces great challenges in developing appropriate strategies for future transportation needs and related transportation issues affecting the metro Atlanta region. The ability to build new highway infrastructure and capacity in the core of metropolitan areas is diminishing rapidly and air quality in non- attainment areas is a growing problem. To meet these challenges, the department is placing a greater emphasis on a more balanced transportation system that advances public transit, passenger rail and other modes of travel. With the passage of newly reauthorized federal transportation legislation, the department will receive major increases in federal transportation dollars for everything from roads to rail projects. The federal authorization provides the department with flexible funds to develop strategies for addressing the metro Atlanta region's air quality and sprawl problems. Federal funds, when combined with motor fuel appropriated funds, will also enable the department to continue fulfilling its traditional responsibility to building and maintaining the state's network ofroads. FEDERAL IDGHWAY FUNDING In September of 1998, Congress passed the Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century - called TEA-21. The federal funds authorized for Georgia include over $5.5 billion for core transportation construction and maintenance programs and over $70 million for special designated rail projects for the 6-year period covering fiscal years 1998-2003. As stipulated in TEA-21, 18% of the total authorization for Georgia is being allocated for FY 2000 and another 18% will be allocated for FY 2001. For FY 2001, this equates to major increases in federal highway funds of over $100 million from the FY 2000 level of$835 million. MASS TRANSIT / PASSENGER RAIL New initiatives for mass transit and rail projects include a recommendation of $5,929,902 in state general funds in DOT's budget to match over $48 million in federal Mass Transit Grant funds for buses and bus-related facilities. These funds will allow the Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority (MARTA) to purchase approximately 62 natural gas-powered buses. Additionally, Cobb Community Transit will be able to purchase 10 natural gas-powered buses and several paratransit vehicles. Gwinnett County will be able to continue the start-up of its bus system by establishing the Gwinnett Place transit center. Chatham County will replace buses, construct a downtown transit transfer center and initiate ferry service to Hutchinson Island. The FY 2000 amended budget for the Georgia Regional Transportation Authority includes a recommendation of $2 million in cash for the purchase of buses for the Clayton County Transit System. These funds will be matched with $8 million in federal funds. Taken with the mass transit grant recommendations in DOT, the metropolitan Atlanta region will see a significant increase in the number of natural gas-powered buses that should help to alleviate the region's traffic and air quality problems. The Governor's budget also recommends total funding of $6,805,000 in cash and bonds in the FY 2000 amended budget to advance the development of a passenger rail system. Specifically, the Governor recommends $5,905,000 in bonds to initiate construction activities for the Atlanta Multi-Modal Passenger Terminal. These funds will be matched with federal funds of $23,620,000, and represent the first installment of a 3-year funding cycle for the construction of this facility. The estimated total construction cost will be $195 million. The Governor also recommends $650,000 to contract planning, engineering and program management functions related to the initiation of passenger rail service. These funds are complemented by an additional $650,000 that has been recommended in the amended FY 2000 budget for the Georgia Regional Transportation Authority (GRTA). The use of this total funding of $1.3 million will be coordinated by the department, GRTA and the Georgia Rail Passenger Authority through the inter-agency program management team to bring the dream of passenger rail service into reality. Additional recommendations reflect and recognize the importance of freight rail to the state and its economy. The FY 2000 amended budget recommends $550,000 to update the state freight rail plan and program of projects, last updated in 1989. The amended budget contains a total of $5.6 million to acquire strategic rail line segments between Ellijay and Tate ($3 million in bonds), Vidalia and Hester ($500,000 in bonds), and Preston and Rochelle ($2,100,000 in cash). The Governor is also recommending that additional funding be appropriated to the Georgia Rail Passenger Authority to continue implementation of the commuter rail and inter-city rail plans started in FY 1998. The amended FY 2000 budget provides $263,500 to cover the costs of increased authority personnel and operations, and a study of 622 DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION -- Strategies and Services connectivity between the MaconAtlanta rail line and Hartsfield Atlanta International Airport. The FY 2001 budget recommendation provides an increase of$152,828 over the authority's FY 2000 budget, due to the staff and operating costs associated with the establishment of regular office operations. Commuter rail, inter-city passenger rail, and improved mass transit offer a long-term strategy for addressing metro Atlanta's air quality and traffic problems. Commuter rail and mass transit can have a significant impact on air quality and traffic problems, keeping metro Atlanta an attractive place for business locations and ensuring its continued strength as a business center into the next millenium. Intercity rail can extend Atlanta's success as a business center to other cities in Georgia and can help Atlanta handle some of its growth pressure. Atlanta can provide Macon, Athens and other Georgia cities national and international business opportunities if good rail connec~ions are established to downtown Atlanta and Hartsfield Airport. HIGHWAY CONSTRUCTION/ HIGHWAY MAINTENANCE With its traditional responsibility for road maintenance and construction, the department has spent well over $5.7 billion to construct, reconstruct and widen more than 8,300 lane-miles of road over the past decade. In FY 2000, approximately $930 million worth of construction contracts is budgeted for 4,450 miles of state roads at an average expenditure of $210,000 per mile of road improvement. In addition, 115 bridges are expected to be let to contract in FY 2000. Improved highway facilities are necessary to encourage continued economic growth. One of the department's economic development related programs is the Governor's Road Improvement Program (GRIP). This ambitious program is intended to add four-lane highways to every section of the state and would place 98% of the state within 20 miles of a four-lane road. As envisioned, this developmental highway system, when complete, will add 2,697 miles of four-lane highways across the state. The state has appropriated over $1 billion for GRIP over the last eight years, an annual average of approximately $125 million primarily through the use of 20-year general obligation bonds. The Governor is recommending $100 million in bonds for the FY 2000 amended budget to continue funding for GRIP initiatives. As of December 1999, 1,515 miles or 61% of all GRIP corridors have been completed or are under construction. AIRPORT AID The state airport system is defmed in terms of its capacity and capability to serve the needs of the general aviation industry. The degree of success of Georgia's public airports is a direct function of the capability of the airports to meet existing and future aviation mobility needs. If the needs are well served, regional and local economies will have a broader window of opportunity to be strengthened and revitalized. By virtue of the benefits from activities associated with the use of aviation and aviation-related services, more areas of Georgia will have a competitive advantage in attracting industry and stimulating long-term economic development in communities that might not otherwise have had opportunities for growth. The department's Airport Aid program provides state funding assistance for capital improvements and for the maintenance of operational and safety requirements at Georgia's 103 publicly-owned airports. Projects include construction of new or extended runways, taxiways, aircraft parking aprons, and new lighting systems. The program also addresses critical airport needs such as pavement maintenance, obstruction removal, and visual and electronic navigational approach aids. State general funds are used to match federal and local funding for projects which enhance 623 local development and improve the state's transportation infrastructure. A January 1999 pavement management study of 94 general aviation airports identified a funding need of $20 million. The Governor is recommending $1.5 million in cash in the FY 2000 amended budget for pavement maintenance at publiclyowned airports. This amount will be supplemented by tobacco settlement funds through the Governor's rural development initiative for rural airport projects. The Governor is also recommending $125,000 in state funds in the FY 2001 budget to update the Statewide Airport System Plan. These funds represent 10% of the total cost of this project, and will be matched with $1,125,000 in federal funds. The current plan's base year is 1992. Once updated, the plan will provide the people of Georgia with a plan for aviation development that maximizes transportation benefits while minimizing the level of social, environmental and economic costs. HARBOR MAINTENANCE Providing a safe passage for international shipping lines using Georgia's ports is an ever-increasing effort by the department. The world's shipping lines continue to increase the size of their ships, requiring ports to provide increasingly deeper channels to accommodate the larger vessels. Dredged material from the Savannah River channel is removed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and deposited in diked areas. This is an ongoing process that requires the department to take care of dike construction and harbor maintenance. Understanding the importance of Georgia ports to the state's economy, the Governor is recommending $8,700,000 in bonds in the FY 2000 amended budget for needed harbor maintenance projects. Among these projects are: $5,500,000 to continue erosion protection work at Jones/Oyster Bed Island; $3,000,000 to raise harbor dikes in area 14B; and $200,000 for related maintenance and repair work of the disposal areas.

In addition, the Commissioner, department staff and field office managers make personal appearances before veterans' organizations throughout the state to explain veteran rights and benefits and the assistance available from the department. VETERANS ASSISTANCE In addition to the central office in Atlanta, the department maintains a claims processing staff at the regional office of the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs in Atlanta and 46 field offices or satellite branches across the state. At these locations, agency personnel assist and advise veterans and their families in several ways. Assistance is given in initiating, filing and processing of claims. When necessary, the department will represent veterans before claims or appellate boards. Veterans are also assisted in securing social security and related benefits. Additionally, assistance is provided in securing burial benefits, in arranging for the burial of eligible veterans in national cemeteries and in securing flags and grave markers. In FY 1999, the department processed 644,320 requests for assistance; it is projected that this number will increase to 660,000 in FY 2000. GEORGIA WAR VETERANS HOME - MILLEDGEVILLE In FY 2000, this privatized facility will provide an estimated 161,000 days of patient care to veterans in need of continuous nursing care and rehabilitation (skilled nursing care). Since the facility was privatized in FY 1997, residents of the I home have reported significant improvements in the quality of care received. In 1998 the facility received the American Health Care Association Quality Award for quality improvement. As the veteran population has aged the acuity level (or level of care) ofthe skilled nursing patients has also increased significantly. In FY 1989, approximately 40 percent ofthe skilled patients at this facility required total care. Today, approximately 69 percent require this intensive level of care. In addition to the skilled nursing component, the Pete Wheeler Domiciliary provides living accommodations and minimal medical care to veterans who are able to maintain some level ofindependence in carrying out their daily living. A patient exercise program has been implemented throughout the home to increase physical activity with an anticipated reduction in patient falls and injuries. GEORGIA VETERANS NURSING HOME - AUGUSTA In FY 2000, this facility will provide an estimated 64,240 days of patient care to veterans in need of continuous nursing care and rehabilitation. In addition, the facility provides educational experience to students of the various schools comprising the Medical College of Georgia. Through this association, the nursing home is allowed access to technology and expertise not readily available to other skilled nursing facilities. These resources have enabled the home to become a leader in long-term care training and research. GEORGIA WAR VETERANS CEMETERY Developed in FY 1999, the Georgia War Veterans Cemetery in Milledgeville is the first state government operated veterans cemetery in the state. Located on 142 acres in Baldwin State Forest with 17 acres developed to accommodate 1,000 burial sites, the cemetery will also include a ten-acre storm retention lake, a main entrance, a ceremonial area and a hearse parking area. The cemetery is scheduled to open in November 2000.

Before this law was passed, employees might not gain benefits from employers when they were injured on the job. The law now ensures employees certain benefits paid to them as a result of on the job injuries. The same law also then provides employers with a form of limited liability from these injuries. The state's workers' compensation law applies to all employers that have at least three full-time, part-time, or seasonal employees. Some categories of workers are exempt, however, including: federal employees, railroad workers, farmers, domestic servants, business partners, independent contractors, and some corporate officers. The state created the State Board of Workers' Compensation to oversee the workers' compensation law. It may create rules, regulations, and policies to enforce this area of law. The Board is also vested with the responsibility of conducting training seminars that educate employers about workers' compensation law changes and other related issues. If either the employer or an employee involved in a workers' compensation claim wishes to contest the facts involved in the case, an administrative law judge under the Board or a Board mediator may be used to settle the issue. Either party disagreeing with this ruling may appeal the decision through the state superior or appellate courts, but that avenue may only be used to, debate points oflaw, not facts ofa case. If a claim does not need a full hearing, the alternative dispute resolution section may handle it. If the case is not eligible for this, then it would head to the trial section. The claims process division maintains the filing system used by the board. The administrative services division performs accounting and personnel functions for the central and regional offices. The fraud/compliance division investigates worker's compensation fraud and issues of non-compliance. Other divisions under the board include: managed care and rehabilitation; licensure and quality assurance; and insurance issues. AUTHORITY Title 34-9, Official Code of Georgia Annotated. State Board of Workers' Compensation Office Locations ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE The board consists of three directors, one of which is a chair, all appointed by the governor. Each serves for a term of four years. The board acts in a quasi-judicial manner, as well as in an administrative and regulatory fashion. Underneath the board is the legal division. This division reviews requests for hearings and conducts them in disputed cases. The division's screening and administration section processes claims sent to the board. 644 STATE BOARD OF WORKERS' COMPENSATION Strategies and Services After its establishment in 1920 by the Georgia General Assembly, the responsibility of the State Board of Workers' Compensation has grown to overseeing workers' compensation matters for 187,000 employers and almost four million employees. Funded by assessments from insurance companies and self-insured employers, the board ensures that employees injured on the job who are eligible for replacement of a portion of lost wages, medical payments, or vocational rehabilitation service, receives them, while at the same time providing a limited liability coverage for employers. Several new strategies have been implemented by the state over the past decade in order to improve the services delivered by the board. MANAGED CARE If employers choose to, they may pick a managed care organization as the deliverer of medical service to their injured workers. The organization they choose must be certified by the board, which has the statutory authority to issue certification. In order to be certified, a managed health care plan will include: fmancial incentives to reduce service costs and utilization without sacrificing the quality of service; adequate methods of peer review; service utilization review to prevent inappropriate or excess treatments; and efforts to promote services that contribute to workplace health and safety. There are nineteen certified managed care organizations covering over 130,000 employees., Nearly every county in the state has a certified managed care organization. Board surveys shows that 80% of doctors, employers, insurers, and employees who participated in certified managed care qrganizations have a positive view of the system. I>octors value the increase communication provided by the managed care organization. Employees are pleased with the care when they are allowed to choose their authorized physician from the network. Finally, employers like the easier access due to the proactive education process. The division overseeing medical care and rehabilitation is conducting seminars showing employers and employees the benefits of introducing managed care into their workers' compensation services. ALTERNATE DISPUTE RESOLUTION Sometimes a disputed workers' compensation claim does not need to have a full evidentiary hearing. I>uring the mid-1990;s, the board Method of Resolution by Fiscal Year (1994-1997) 4,500 '" 4,000 ...~ 3,500 :; 3,000 -A ~ ~ == 2,500 ""Q 2,000 ~"" 1,500 X- 1,000 - X_ --X Z 500 o 1994 1995 1996 1997 -X-Trial Held -<>- Alternate Method Used realized that these cases could be handled through a less costly mediation process. The staff for this division handles approximately 500 cases a month, which previously may have gone to a full hearing. Certain issues are addressed better in a mediation venue. These include: change of physician; approval of income benefits to an employee; provision of medical treatment; resolution of medical and attorney disputes; along with other issues. With an average time of only forty-one days for a claim to be processed under this method, this section has shown cost savings to the employers and employees of Georgia. FRAUD AND COMPLIANCE This section was created and staffed in 1995 with a goal of educating and assisting parties involved in workers' compensation so benefits allowable under law are successfully received. To do this, the division conducts compliance checks while investigating and prosecuting fraud throughout the state. The compliance section has officers located throughout the state. Each officer conducts approximately fifteen randomly generated, or in some instances complaint-based, checks a day. Since it's inception, the section has found over 3,700 businesses not carrying the required workers' compensation coverage. These employers now carry the proper insurance for an additional 20,000 employees. Fifteen of these employers have been criminally prosecuted. The fraud section has been granted law enforcement powers by the General Assembly and has issued 135 arrest warrants for workers' compensation fraud. 645 STATE BOARD OF WORKERS' COMPENSATION Results-Based Budgeting Program Summaries WORKERS' COMPENSATION SERVICES PURPOSE: To fairly administer the law for workers injured on the job by ensuring no-fault medical and indemnity payments and by protecting employers from tort lawsuits. GOAL 1: Ensure access to medical care for all workers injured on the job so that those workers can return to work. DESIRED RESULT la: At least 84% of workers injured on the job will return to work within one year of their injuries during FY 2001. DESIRED RESULT Ib: The number of workdays lost by each employee with a work related injury in FY 2001 will be reduced to the FY 1998 average of 60 workdays. Desired Result la: Percentage of Workers Returning to Work within One Year FY1998 Actual Resulf 83% (21,585 of 26,058) 82% (20,180 of 24,558) lOata on injured workers lags behind one year, therefore FY 1998 actual results reflect workers injured in FY 1997, and FY 1999 actual results reflect workers injured in FY 1998, the most current year for which information is available. 2 Based on actual data collected, the FY 2000 desired result of 85% is too high. Although the number oftotal claims has decreased by 1,500, the number of workers returning to work within one year of their injury is remaining constant and is governed largely by the type of injury and the ability ofthe employers to make jobs available. Desired Result 2a: Cost of Medical Care for Injured Workers (in thousands) FY 1998 Actual Resulf $69,928 60 days lOata on injured workers lags behind one year, therefore FY 1998 actual results reflect lost workdays in FY 1997, and FY 1999 actual results reflect lost workdays in FY 1998, the most current year for which information is available. GOAL 2: Control the growth of workers' compensation costs by developing reasonable fee schedules and specialized managed care programs. DESIRED RESULTS 2a: The FY 2001 cost of medical care for injured workers will increase 20.0% or less over the FY 2000 costs for medical-only claims. GOAL 3: Payments of all entitled benefits to injured workers by employers and insurers will be correct and timely. DESIRED RESULT 3a: The percent of injured workers receiving their first weekly payment on the twenty-first day after their injury will remain at the FY 1998 rate of 85%. FY1998 Actual Resulf 85% (22,124 of 646 STATE BOARD OF WORKERS' COMPENSATION -- Results-Based Budgeting Desired Result 4a: Number of Cases Settled without a Formal Hearing 1----- FY 1998 Actual Result! 2,018 1 Data summarized from information extracted from the State Board of Workers' Compensation database for the fiscal years ended 1997 and 1998. Desired Result 4b: Percentage of Trial Decisions Rendered within 60 Days GOAL 4: Ensure prompt due process to any party in a workers' compensation claim case by providing a judicial forum to address legal complaints with a trial level decision and by evaluating settlement agreements. DESIRED RESULT 4a: The number of cases that are settled without the need for a formal hearing will increase 3% from 2,370 in FY 2000 to 2,440 in FY 2001. DESIRED RESULT 4b: Trial decisions for 75% of workers' compensation cases in FY 2001 will be rendered within 60 days of the initial trial. FY 1998 Actual Result! 69% (1,235 ofl,790) 1 Data lags behind one year, therefore FY 1998 actual results reflect trial decisions made in FY 1997, and FY 1999 actual results reflect trail decisions in FY 1998, the most current year for which information is available. GOAL 5: Increase communications and improve relations between private industry and all users of the workers' compensation system. Desired Result 5a: Percent of Attendees Satisfied with Training FY 1998 Actual Result! 98% (1,618 of 1,643) I Data summarized from evaluation forms collected at each training seminar held in FY 1998 and FY 1999. DESIRED RESULT 5a: Ninety-five percent of employer attendees will be satisfied with the Board-sponsored workers' compensation training seminars in FY 2001. DESIRED RESULT 5b: Five percent more employers will gain information about workers' compensation by attending the FY 2001 workers' compensation training seminars and by visiting the web page than did so in FY 2000. Desired Result 5b: Percent of Attendees Satisfied with Training FY1998 Actual Result! 2,228 1 Data obtained from financial records for each seminar held in FY 1998 and FY 1999 as well as a summary of individuals utilizing the web page since its inception in January 1999. 2Five regional seminars were held in FY 1999 instead of the eight held in FY 1998. Seminars are scheduled based on the need. Due to the fact that there were very few legislative and rule changes taking effect July 1, 1999, fewer seminars were necessary.

Agencies were required to estimate future costs of their Fiscal Year 2001 redirection level request. Estimating future cost of actions taken in any budget year should be an integral part of the budget decision making process. Agencies were asked to include Fiscal Year 2002 estimates oftheir redirection budget level and future operating costs associated with capital outlay projects.

Funding is considered in the Capital Outlay Program for projects that are primarily facility related, non-recurring on an annual basis, and it is deemed desirable to request and recommend funding separate from the operating budget for ongoing agency expenses. For example, annual motor vehicle replacements and other routine equipment needs are usually funded as part of an agency's general operating budget. The Capital Outlay Program impacts the state's operating budget through a mix of debt service payments for bondfunded projects and "pay-as-you-go" financing using lottery, tobacco settlement, and cash revenues. Also, as completed capital projects become operational, there may be associated additional operating expenses. The following table summarizes the impact of the Capital Outlay Program on the FY 2001 Recommended Budget. General Obligation Debt Sinking Fund Existing Obligations, Issued Debt Service Bond Funded FY 2001 Projects New Debt Service Subtotal, Debt FY 200lBudget Percentage of Total Budget $532,461,866 o 532,461,866 3.7% 3.7% Cash Funded FY 2001 Projects (Includes $10,000,000 in Tobacco Settlement funds) 306,739,764 2.1% Lottery Funded FY 2001 Projects 23,688,500 0.2% FY 2001 Additional Operating Cost Of Newly Completed State Projects Total 36.400,000 $899,290,130 0.3% 6.2% In summary, $899.3 million of the FY 2001 Governor's Recommended Budget directly supports the Capital Outlay Program, representing 6.2% of the total. Details of funding expenses of major capital projects becoming operational are contained in the Department Summaries and Budget Highlights sections. Also, as the major capital projects recommended in the FY 2001 and Amended FY 2000 budgets are completed, there will be additional operating expenses in future years. The total future additional operational impact of these recommended capital projects is estimated at $14 million on an annual basis. The state has developed and maintains a sound debt management plan, overseen by a Debt Management Advisory Committee, for the effective and prudent use of debt in addressing Georgia's growing capital needs. In recognition of the state's sound fiscal policies, moderate debt levels well within constitutional and statutory controls, conservative revenue estimates, a diverse and strong economy, and responsive leadership, the state currently enjoys triple-A ratings from Moody's, Fitch, and Standard & Poor's. 719 FINANCING CAPITAL OUTLAY NEEDS - ISSUANCE OF DEBT In November of 1972, the voters of the State of Georgia commission contracts with the Department of Transportation approved a comprehensive amendment to the Constitution of 1945 (Ga.
