The Honorable, The Legislature:
As required by s.
14.065, and on behalf of the Governor, I am transmitting a recommended Stripper XXI Oil Overcharge Plan, and requesting the Joint Committee on Finance consider this plan at their next s.
13.10, Wis. Stats., meeting.
This plan allocates $862,299.80 of oil overcharge monies ($152,899.22 of new Stripper monies plus all accrued and future accruing interest, $40,099 of direct state restitution monies, $434,679.24 reprogrammed Exxon monies). The plan is designed to reduce the State's dependence on petroleum based motor fuels and increase the use of renewable energy.
I appreciate your support in helping Wisconsin increase its energy efficiency and increase its use of renewable energies. If you have any questions or need additional details regarding the proposed program modification, please contact Kimberly R. Walker, Administrator for the Division of Energy, at 261-6357.
Sincerely,
STEPHEN E. BABLITCH
Secretary
