The adopted consolidated budget for the Fiscal Year 2012-2013 amounts to $1,008,000 from the Joint Resolution General Fund. These resources will be used for operational expenses and to comply with the duties established by the Corporation's Organic Act.

Operational expenses reflect a decrease of $818,000 when compared to funds assigned in fiscal year 2011-2012 due to a loss of non-recurring State Special Funds that depend on resources from other public funds. For example: capital improvements, other state and federal funds, municipal, public corporations, agencies, departments and other government institutions that receive funding from individuals and private sector.
