Notes:
(1): SPSF Continuation Budget based on current ADM projection model for ADM
growth. (current projection model yields a 0.1% error rate)
(2): FY 2001-2002 one-time reduction only as proposed in Governor's budget (462
buses). Restoration is expected in FY 2002-2003 as per Governor's budget.
(3): Effect on Continuation Budget programs using alternative ADM projection
model as proposed by Fiscal Research staff.
See attachment 2 for Program-by-Program reductions which result due to use of
revised model. (4,175 reduction in total ADM)
