Legislative Cost/Study
	The cost of the pilot project cannot be determined at this time as it will largely depend on the size of the studies that will be required in order to complete an economic impact evaluation for each of the selected bills.  In addition to the size of the study, costs associated with obtaining the relevant data, the model used to evaluate the data, and time spent by the selected entity or entities to develop, input and evaluate the relevant data, and prepare and present the draft and final economic impact statements, will also impact the overall cost of the pilot project.
