MEMORANDUM
TO: Office of Policy and Legislative Affairs
FROM: Jennifer Reed
Director, Office of Budget and Performance Management, OCA
DATE: October 17, 2024
SUBJECT: FY 2024 Year-End Reprogramming Request of Operating Local Funds
This memo requests reprogramming $29,317,743.29 of Fiscal Year 2024 operating Local
Funds (including ARPA Local Revenue Replacement) and Federal Payment from various
agencies to the Emergency Planning and Security Fund and the Department of Behavioral Health
to address year-end spending pressures.
Why are the funds needed?
The funds are needed to address higher than anticipated FY 2024 expenditures as described below.
• Emergency Planning and Security Fund (EPSF): incurred $56.3 million in expenses
related to multiple First Amendment events and public safety initiatives. The District has
only received $30 million in reimbursements, leaving a $26.3 million shortfall.
• Department of Behavioral Health (DBH): incurred additional overtime expenses at St
Elizabeths Hospital and at the Comprehensive Psychiatric Emergency Program (CPEP).
The OT is primarily due to vacancies in hard-to-fill positions (i.e. MDs and nurses), which
the agency is actively recruiting for and filling. Additionally, there was an increase in
utilization in waiver and MHRS services, and a decrease in revenues collected for an SPR
fund.
Is this a reprogramming to restore a budget cut authorized by the Mayor and/or Council?
No.
How will the funds be reprogrammed?
See the attached attributes sheet for details.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________
John A. Wilson Building | 1350 Pennsylvania Ave., NW, Suite 513 | Washington, DC 20004
Why are the funds available?
Funds are available because of year-end underspending at agencies identified on the attached
attribute form. The funds became available because of less demand for various programs and
services than forecasted, and delayed hiring. The savings include local funds and federal
payment (i.e., ARPA SLFRF).
What hardship will the District face if the action is postponed until the subsequent fiscal year?
Without this reprogramming, ESPF and DBH will not be able to cover the unanticipated FY 2024
costs. This may result in the District violating anti-deficiency rules.
What programs, services or other purchases will be delayed because of the action, and the
impact on the program or agency?
No projects will be negatively impacted because of this reprogramming.
Should you have any questions, please contact Jason Kim, Deputy Budget Director, Office of
Budget and Performance Management at 202-340-7070 or Jason.Kim@dc.gov.
