Sec. D-2. Calculation and transfer. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the State Budget Officer shall calculate the amount of savings in section 1 of this Part that applies against each Highway Fund account for all departments and agencies from savings associated with eliminating merit pay increases and longevity payments and shall transfer the amounts by financial order upon the approval of the Governor. These transfers are considered adjustments to allocations in fiscal year 2011-12 and fiscal year 2012-13. The State Budget Officer shall provide a report of the transferred amounts to the Joint Standing Committee on Appropriations and Financial Affairs no later than October 1, 2012.

This Part provides funding for approved reclassifications and range changes.

This Part repeals the annual indexing of the excise tax imposed on internal combustion engine fuel and distillates effective January 1, 2012.

This Part continues for 2 years the pay freeze by denying the awarding of merit pay and longevity pay to employees in the various departments and agencies within the executive branch, including the constitutional officers and the Department of Audit, during the 2012-2013 biennium. This Part also requires the State Budget Officer to calculate the amount of savings that applies against each Highway Fund account for all departments and agencies from savings associated with eliminating merit pay and to transfer the amounts by financial order upon the approval of the Governor.

This Part recognizes an increase in the attrition rate from 1.6% to 5.0 % for the 2012-2013 biennium. The 5.0% rate is currently built into the baseline budget for personnel services.

This Part transfers funds from the Highway Fund unallocated surplus to the TransCap Trust Fund in an amount equal to the savings from changing the General Fund and Highway Fund matching ratio.

This Part authorizes the State Controller to transfer amounts exceeding $100,000 from the unallocated balance in the Highway Fund after all commitments to the Highway and Bridge Capital, Highway and Bridge Light Capital and Maintenance and Operations programs within the Department of Transportation, for capital needs.

This Part allows the transfer of Highway Fund Personal Services savings to the Highway and Bridge Capital, Highway and Bridge Light Capital and Maintenance and Operations programs within the Department of Transportation for capital or all other needs.

This Part allows transfers of non-bond funds from the TransCap Trust Fund to be used for capital projects having an estimated useful life of 5 years. This allows the funds to be used for light capital paving in an attempt to meet the goal of 600 miles per year.
