Dear Chairman Mendelson:
Pursuant to the Reprogramming Policy Act of 1980, D.C. Official Code § 47-363(a) and the
Further Continuing Appropriations Act, 2023, H.R. 6363, approved November 16, 2023 (P.L.
117-328), the Office of the Chief Financial Officer (OCFO) has reviewed the Mayor’s request to
reprogram Capital funds budget authority and allotment in the amount of $4,000,000 for District
of Columbia Public Schools (DCPS).
This FY 2024 request reprograms capital budget in the amount of $4,000,000 for the Browne
Education Campus Modernization project (100267 AM0.YY108C BROWNE EC
MODERNIZATION). This reprogramming will fund the additional trailers required to provide
adequate swing space, which was not envisioned in the original scope of work for this project.
Additionally, the project scope also requires upgrading the electrical network on the “Hilltop
Campus” which also includes Phelps High School and Two Rivers Charter School (formerly
Young Elementary School).
All impacted projects are implemented by the Department of General Services (DGS). An itemized
listing of all affected projects is reflected in the tables below.
Capital budget totaling $4,000,000 will be reprogrammed from the projects below:

Capital budget is available to reprogram from the above-referenced projects because it has not
been disbursed for its intended use from the appropriate agency capital project. There will be no
impact on these projects since the work is complete with no outstanding or pending payments.
The Office of Budget and Planning’s analysis indicates that the reprogramming will not have an
adverse impact on the DCPS’ or DGS’ budget or the District’s financial plan. The OCFO has no
objection to this reprogramming request.

DATE: November 16, 2024
SUBJECT: FY 24 Request to Reprogram Capital Budget in the Amount of $4,000,000.00 for
DCPS (Owner AGY)/DGS (Implementing AGY)
This is a request to reprogram capital budget, in the amount of $4,000,000.00 for capital projects
for DCPS (Owner AGY)/DGS (Implementing AGY).
Why are the funds needed?
This is a request to reprogram capital budget, in the amount of $4,000,000.00 for the Browne
Education Campus Modernization project (100267; AM0.YY108C.BROWNE EC
MODERNIZATION). This will cover temporary trailers required for additional swing capacity
that was not envisioned in the original scope of work. Originally, the scope assumed that part of
the Browne population would swing inside of the school. However, as the design of the
modernized school, and the means and methods required to carry it out, became more realized, it
became clear that this original plan was not feasible, and the Browne students and staff would
need to all swing in a separate location. While the majority of the Browne students and staff
could operate inside of the Spingarn trailers, additional trailers were needed to house Browne
administrative staff. The cost of these trailers and their operation over the remaining duration of
the project is estimated at $1,000,000.
which also includes Phelps High School and Two Rivers Charter School (formerly Young
Elementary School). When the Hilltop Campus was first built in the 1930s, all the electrical
power to the individual schools were fed through one transformer located on the Young ES
campus. As the electrical system has aged, this puts the entire campus at risk of a power outage if
this transformer were to fail. When Young ES was converted to a charter school, Pepco
_____________________________________________________________________________________________

mandated that they have their own, dedicated electrical feed, separate from the single
transformer. This left Phelps HS and Browne still connected through this one electrical source.
During project planning, DGS and DCPS assumed that upgrades to both Phelps and Browne
would be required. However, DGS and DCPS had also assumed that they would receive grant
funding from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to cover the costs of these
upgrades, which DGS estimated would be $3,000,000, since DGS had worked to demonstrate
that this was a major resiliency issue. However, after the project had begun design, DGS was
informed that funding would likely not be coming from FEMA. Therefore, DGS and DCPS had
to work to identify alternative funds for these necessary upgrades.
Is this a reprogramming to restore a budget cut authorized by the Mayor and/or Council?
No.
How will the funds be reprogrammed?
Funds will be reprogrammed FROM the following projects.

TOTAL 4,000,000.00
Why are the funds available?
Capital budget in the amount of $4,000,000.00 is available to reprogram in the above-referenced
projects because it has disbursed for its intended use. The reprogramming will ensure that the
budget is disbursed for its intended use from the appropriate agency capital project. There will be
no impact on these projects since the work is complete with no outstanding or pending payments.
What hardship will the District face if the action is postponed until the subsequent fiscal
year?
Programmatic elements of the Browne modernization will need to be altered or removed in order
to accommodate these additional financial needs.
What programs, services or other purchases will be delayed as a result of the action, and the
impact on the program or agency?
No other projects will be delayed by this action.
Should you have any questions, please contact Toussaint Webster, Director, Facilities
Management at (202) 794-3549 or at toussaint.webster@k12.dc.gov.
