  CHAIRMAN LEMAN  called the Senate Resources Committee meeting to             
 order at 3:38 p.m.  He brought SB 201 before the committee as the             
 first order of business.  He noted that at the previous hearing on            
 the bill there was a question relating to the fiscal note, and that           
 a new fiscal note was provided by the department.                             
                                                                               
  NICO BUS , Director, Division of Support Services, Department of             
 Natural Resources, said at the last meeting the department                    
 testified that this money had already been appropriated and is in             
 the capital budget.  The new fiscal note shows the receipts coming            
 in as CIP receipts from this appropriation, which is already on the           
 books, in a component to be established.   He said this way there             
 is no commingling with fire suppression funding, and it is real               
 clear and easy to track.                                                      
                                                                               
 There being no further testimony on SB 201,  CHAIRMAN LEMAN  asked            
 for the pleasure of the committee.
