Fiscal Detail and Notes
The Board of Boilers and Pressure Vessels within the Office of Licensing and Registration, Department of Professional and Financial Regulation, will require a one-time Other Special Revenue Funds allocation of $2,500 in fiscal year 2011-12 for the costs associated with rulemaking.  The Board estimates the loss of revenue due to the exemption of certain boilers owned and operated by municipalities and schoolhouses from the state-level boiler inspection program requirement to be approximately $284,800 per year beginning in fiscal year 2011-12.  This preliminary fiscal impact statement assumes that the Board will increase fees to cover the revenue loss.
