FISCAL YEAR 2012-2013 PROPOSED BUDGET
The proposed consolidated budget for Fiscal Year 2012-2013 amounts to $7,057,000. This amount includes $1,954,000 in Revenues from Internal Sources and $5,103,000 from Loans and Bond Issuance.
Operational expenses reflect an increase of $171,000 when compared to funds assigned in fiscal year 2011-2012 due to a rise in heavy equipment's maintenance costs.
Per Act 409-2004, known as the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico's guarantee to pay the principal and interest on Port of the Americas Authority bonds Act, $5,103,000 were included to continue capital improvements work, specifically the dredging and infrastructure development at the Port.
