METHODOLOGY:
This bill establishes a fund for dredging the seacoast and makes a general fund appropriation of $1,000 to the Department of Environmental Services for deposit in the fund.
The Department of Environmental Services indicates this bill would increase state revenue and expenditures by an indeterminable amount. The Department is not able to determine the mount of revenue that may be deposited in the fund from grants or donations from federal and/or private sources. The Department assumes there would be no county or local impact as the counties and municipals typically do not pay for dredging projects.
