Explanation
(This amendment reduces $2.4 million each year from the general fund for local drinking water projects funded through the Department of Health. The introduced budget included $5.0 million each year. Of this amount, $2.6 million was provided to restore a reduction in federal funding for drinking water improvement projects and $2.4 million to expand the program to communities lacking safe and reliable drinking water. A separate amendment to Item 104 provides $2.4 million each year to the Department of Housing and Community Development for drinking water and wastewater improvement projects in the Commonwealth.)
