Fiscal Note

The impact on the General Fund is $13,100. The three Public Utility Commissioners’ salaries and three Industrial Commissioners’ salaries are funded with dedicated funds. The increased salaries and benefits amount to $12,600 from the Public Utilities Commission Fund and $12,300 from the Industrial Administration Fund. The PUC Fund comes from fees collected on the gross operating revenues of the regulated utilities. The Industrial Administration Fund comes from workers’ compensation premiums. The salaries of the State Tax Commissioners are paid 90% from the General Fund and 10% from the Administration Services to Transportation Fund. The increased salaries and benefits amount to $13,100 from the General Fund and $1,400 from dedicated funds. The total spending authority provided by this bill is $39,400.
