<br />In mid-June, shortly after a state budget was passed by the General Assembly and signed by the
<br />Governor, the Office of State Planning and Budget announced that it had under-estimated General Fund
<br />Revenues available for use in the current fiscal year and that state agencies had to find a way to reduce
<br />the General Fund portion of their budget by four percent.
<br />
<br />Attached is a copy ofthe memo sent by the Department of Natural Resources to the Governor's office
<br />regarding where the four percent savings would be found.
<br />
<br />The following chart illustrates our budget prior to the $1.3 million cut:
