Dear Chairman Mendelson:
Pursuant to the Reprogramming Policy Act of 1980, D.C. Official Code 47-363(a) and to the
Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021, approved December 27, 2020 (P.L. 116-260), the Office
of the Chief Financial Officer (OCFO) has reviewed the Mayors request to reprogram Fiscal Year
2021 Local funds budget authority in the amount of $525,000 within the Department of Public
Works (DPW).
This action will reprogram budget authority from DPWs Snow Removal Program division,
Comptroller Source Groups (CSGs) 40 (Other Services and Charges) and 41 (Contractual Services
Other), to the Solid Waste Management division, CSGs 12 (Regular Pay Other) and 14 (Fringe
Benefits Current Personnel). This reprogramming is needed to extend the employment of 90
seasonal sanitation workers during the Covid crisis to provide the collection and disposal of the
Districts municipal solid waste and recycling materials. Funds are available due to lower-than-
anticipated snow and severe weather costs.
