 1                                        AN ACT
 2    RELATING TO CONSTRUCTION, EXPANSION AND REHABILITATION OF  ARMORIES;  AMENDING
 3        SECTION  46-713,  IDAHO  CODE, TO PROVIDE A CORRECT STATUTORY CITATION, TO
 4        PROVIDE THAT THE ADJUTANT GENERAL IS EMPOWERED TO EXERCISE THE AUTHORITIES
 5        FOR EMERGENCY CONTRACTING WITH RESPECT TO EMERGENCIES FOR ARMORIES AND  TO
 6        MAKE A TECHNICAL CORRECTION.

 7    Be It Enacted by the Legislature of the State of Idaho:

 8        SECTION  1.  That  Section  46-713, Idaho Code, be, and the same is hereby
 9    amended to read as follows:

10        46-713.  CONSTRUCTION, EXPANSION AND REHABILITATION OF ARMORIES --  SUPER-
11    VISION  BY  ADJUTANT GENERAL. The adjutant general is authorized and empowered
12    to provide or secure all plans and specifications for, to  let  all  contracts

14    rehabilitation or conversion of any and all armories as provided in this  act,
15    and  the powers and duties vested in the adjutant general herein are expressly
16    exempted from the provisions of sections 57-1101 --    through

Statement of Purpose / Fiscal Impact


                       STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
                              RS08430

This proposal amends Idaho Code Section 46-713 to enable the
Adjutant General to exercise the authority set out in Idaho
Code Section 67-5711B to permit emergency contracting (with
limited competition and waiver of plans and specifications)
when he finds that the emergency conditions set out therein
exist for contracts within the military division's contracting
authority. This will permit the Military Division to enter
into emergency contracts under the same conditions that enable
the Dept. of Administration to now waive certain contracting
requirements in an emergency. This authority does not now
extend to the Military Division's contracting authority and
prevents the use of this authority for Military Division
emergencies. This change will fix that problem.


                           FISCAL IMPACT

This proposal will enable the Military Division to expedite
contacting actions during emergencies and save the additional
costs incurred in processing the more comprehensive
contracting actions as they must do now without this emergency
authority. Failure to provide this authority could also
increase the cost of agency operations when the failure to
provide timely goods and services during an emergency results
in the loss of state property or increases the costs incurred
in responding to the emergency due to the additional delay in
contract processing time. While it is difficult to estimate
the size of this cost, since it is dependent upon each
emergency, it could result in substantial cost savings to the
state.
