Current biennium revenue increase - Other Special Revenue Funds
Fiscal Detail and Notes
The Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) anticipates that expenditures would increase due to an increased number of water tests. These costs would be offset by an increase in revenue from the charge for each test. The exact amount of these increases cannot be determined at this time.
Any additional costs for DHHS to make test results from nursery schools available to the public are expected to be minor and can be absorbed within existing budgeted resources.
