This amendment
removes the one-time transfer and related allocation of $2,000,000 in fiscal
year 2023-24 from the unappropriated surplus of the General Fund to the newly
established Lobster Innovation Fund (LIF) within the Department of Marine
Resources. Instead, the amendment provides a one-time transfer and related
allocation of $500,000 from the Department of Professional and Financial
Regulation, Bureau of Financial Institutions, Other Special Revenue Funds
account to the LIF in fiscal year 2023-24 and a one-time General Fund
appropriation of $50,000 in fiscal year 2024-25 for stipends to holders of
Class I, Class II, or Class III Lobster fishing licenses to participate in
the testing of new lobster fishing technologies. |
