Under current law, DWD assists individuals with disabilities in gaining employment through its vocational rehabilitation program. The funding for the program is provided by a federal grant and matching state funds. Some of the individuals assisted through the vocational rehabilitation program receive assistance from the federal government through supplemental security income (SSI) or social security disability income (SSDI). An individual with a disability who gains employment with assistance from the vocational rehabilitation program no longer receives his or her SSI or SSDI benefit. The federal government reimburses some of the benefits it no longer has to pay to DWD for the vocational rehabilitation program.
Also under current law, DHS provides grants for independent living centers to provide services to the severely disabled. DWD is required to transfer $600,000 to DHS in order to provide these grants.
This bills specifies that the $600,000 transferred by DWD to DHS is from social security reimbursement funds.

Under current law, the interest rate for projects that are necessary to prevent a municipality from exceeding a pollution limit in its wastewater discharge permit is 55 percent of the market interest rate, which is the interest rate on bonds issued by the state for the Clean Water Fund Program. This bill changes the interest rate for this kind of project to 70 percent of the market interest rate.
The budget bill for each fiscal biennium establishes the present value of the subsidies that may be provided under the Clean Water Fund Program during that fiscal biennium. This bill sets the present value of the Clean Water Fund Program subsidies that may be provided during the 2009-11 biennium at $114,800,000. The bill also increases the revenue bonding authority for the Clean Water Fund Program by $418,800,000. In addition, the bill increases the general obligation bonding authority for the Clean Water Fund Program by $76,500,000, except that this increase does not take effect in fiscal years 2009-10 and 2010-11 unless DOA first takes into account certain funds received by the federal governmental.
