Office of the Governor

The Honorable, The Senate:
This is to inform you that I am withdrawing the nomination of John F. Butz, for appointment to the Fox River Management Commission.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Sincerely,

Governor
State of Wisconsin
Office of the Governor
March 16, 1996
The Honorable, The Senate:
I am pleased to transmit my 1996 Oil Overcharge Plan for consideration by the Joint Committee on Finance (JCF) at the next s.13.10 meeting. As required by the Wisconsin Statute 14.065, I am also forwarding a copy to the Chief Clerk of the Assembly.
This plan allocates $1.6 million of new Stripper monies plus interest, and modifies three previously approved Stripper oil overcharge programs. Oil overcharge monies must be used on energy programs that provide restitution to Wisconsin citizens.
In addition to JCF's action, the U.S. Department of Energy must also conduct a review to determine if Wisconsin's Plan conforms with federal requirements. I urge your support of this plan as it is sufficiently diverse to provide restitution to the broadest sector of Wisconsin citizens.
The Department of Administration staff will be available to provide additional information that may be required.
Sincerely,
Tommy g. thompson
Governor
Referred to the joint committee on Environment and Energy.
