Statement of Purpose / Fiscal Impact



                                         STATEMENT OF PURPOSE


                                                SB1348

This bill is a fiscal year 1998 supplemental for the Military Division.  Two issues are addressed by
this appropriation.  The first provides for the payment of deficiency warrants in the Bureau of
Hazardous Materials which were issued to cover the cost of responding to a diesel spill in Sandpoint.
 The second issue involves providing funding for the Bureau of Disaster Services to pay for the Milo
Creek Containment Project.  This project is a response to last winter's flooding in the Silver Valley,
 which resulted in contaminants from the Bunker Hill mine reaching Milo Creek, and flooding the cities
 of Wardner and Kellogg.  This project would help prevent Bunker Hill contaminants from reaching Milo
Creek, and would repair and expand the drainage capacity of the piping system under the cities of
Wardner and Kellogg, to prevent future floods.
