To the Honorable, the Legislature:
This report is transmitted as required by sec. 20.002(11)(f) of the Wisconsin Statutes, (for distribution to the appropriate standing committees under sec. 13.172(3) Stats.), and confirms that the Department of Administration has found it necessary to exercise "the temporary reallocation of balances" authority provided by this section in order to meet payment responsibilities and cover resulting negative balances during the month of August, 1998.
On August 20, 1998 the Wisconsin Petroleum Inspection Fund balance was -$4.75 million. This shortfall continued until August 26, 1998 when the balance reached $4.68 million. This shortfall was due to the timing of revenues.
The Wisconsin Petroleum Inspection was not in excess of the statutory interfund borrowing limitation and did not exceed the balances of the Funds available for interfund borrowing.
