            appropriations   for   the   expenses   of   state                 
            government;   making,   amending,   and  repealing                 
            capital   and   operating    appropriations;   and                 
            providing for an effective date.                                   
                                                                               
            SB  100   was  held   in  Committee  for   further                 
  consideration.                                                               
  SENATE BILL 100                                                              
                                                                               
       "An Act making  supplemental and special appropriations                 
       for the expenses of state government; making, amending,                 
       and repealing capital and operating appropriations; and                 
       providing for an effective date."                                       
                                                                               
  Co-Chair  Larson  pointed  out the  Committee  had completed                 
  Sections 1 -  74 at the  previous meeting.   Section 75  was                 
  adopted.    Sections 76  -  79 are  currently  in discussion                 
  between the House and the Senate budget meetings.                            
                                                                               
  Section  80  provides  $30 thousand  dollars  for  the Sitka                 
  Campus  of  the  Katlian  Vocation School.    Representative                 
  Martin  asked if these projects were currently listed in the                 
  University budget.   Representative Grussendorf stated  that                 
  this component was not included  in the University's budget.                 
  Representative Grussendorf  MOVED Section #80.   There being                 
  NO OBJECTION, Section #80 was adopted.                                       
                                                                               
  Representative  Brown  understood that  Section #75  was the                 
  same component included  in the  capital budget request  for                 
  $1.7 million  dollars.  She  felt it  was not needed  in the                 
  proposed legislation.                                                        
                                                                               
  MEL  KROSENG, AIDE,  REPRESENTATIVE  RAMONA BARNES,  advised                 
  that it  is  the Speaker's  request that  the allocation  be                 
  funded  in  the  supplemental  so  that  the  Department  of                 
  Corrections can begin Project Hope this year.                                
                                                                               
  Representative Brown  REMOVED her OBJECTION noting  that the                 
                                                                               
                                6                                              
                                                                               
                                                                               
  Department of Correction's  budget is seriously  underfunded                 
  and  she  would  like  to encourage  as  many  resources  as                 
  possible for that agency.  There being NO FURTHER OBJECTION,                 
  Section 75 was adopted.                                                      
                                                                               
  SB 100 was HELD in Committee for further consideration.
