The bill proposes a supplemental appropriation of $2,500,000 for the Department of Energy and Environment, specifically for the Division of Environmental Quality's Used Tire Recycling and Abatement program for the fiscal year 2025-2026. This funding is intended to be in addition to the funds previously appropriated by Act 791 of 2025. The bill outlines that the funds will be transferred from the General Revenue Allotment Reserve Fund to the cash fund in the State Treasury, as determined by the Chief Fiscal Officer of the State.
Additionally, the bill includes an emergency clause, stating that the current funding is insufficient for the Department to continue providing essential services due to unforeseen circumstances. It emphasizes the urgency of the appropriation to prevent any disruption in governmental services. The bill also mandates compliance with existing fiscal control laws and regulations during the disbursement of the allocated funds.
