Page 310, strike lines 10 through 12, and insert:

Explanation
(This amendment eliminates language that prohibited any portion of the year-end general fund surplus deposited into the Water Quality Improvement Fund from being transferred to the Water Quality Improvement Fund Reserve Fund. This reserve fund was established as a means to continue improving Virginia's water quality when either year-end general fund surpluses or other appropriations were unavailable. The amount to be transferred to the WQIF Reserve Fund from year-end general fund surpluses is 15 percent, which totals $546,645.)
