Section 3. GENERAL PROVISIONS.--
A. Amounts set out under column headings are expressed in thousands of dollars.
B. Amounts set out under column headings are appropriated from the source indicated by the column heading. All amounts set out under the column heading “Internal Service Funds/Interagency Transfers” are intergovernmental transfers and do not represent a portion of total state government appropriations. All information designated as “Total” or “Subtotal” is provided for information and amounts are not appropriations.
C. Amounts set out in Section 4 of the General Appropriation Act of 2009, or so much as may be necessary, are appropriated from the indicated source for expenditure in fiscal year 2010 for the objects expressed.
D. Unexpended balances in agency accounts remaining at the end of fiscal year 2009 shall revert to the general fund by October 1, 2009, unless otherwise indicated in the General Appropriation Act of 2009 or otherwise provided by law.
E. Unexpended balances in agency accounts remaining at the end of fiscal year 2010 shall revert to the general fund by October 1, 2010, unless otherwise indicated in the General Appropriation Act of 2009 or otherwise provided by law.
F. The state budget division shall monitor revenue received by agencies from sources other than the general fund and shall reduce the operating budget of any agency whose revenue from such sources is not meeting projections. The state budget division shall notify the legislative finance committee of any operating budget reduced pursuant to this subsection.
G. Except as otherwise specifically stated in the General Appropriation Act of 2009, appropriations are made in that act for the expenditures of agencies and for other purposes as required by existing law for fiscal year 2010. If any other act of the first session of the forty-ninth legislature changes existing law with regard to the name or responsibilities of an agency or the name or purpose of a fund or distribution, the appropriation made in the General Appropriation Act of 2009 shall be transferred from the agency, fund or distribution to which an appropriation has been made as required by existing law to the appropriate agency, fund or distribution provided by the new law.
H. The department of finance and administration will regularly consult with the legislative finance committee staff to compare fiscal year 2010 revenue collections with the revenue estimate. If the analyses indicate that revenues and transfers to the general fund are not expected to meet appropriations, then the department shall present a plan to the legislative finance committee that outlines the methods by which the administration proposes to address the deficit.
I. Pursuant to Sections 6-3-23 through 6-3-25 NMSA 1978, agencies whose revenue from state board of finance loans, from revenue appropriated by other acts of the legislature, or from gifts, grants, donations, bequests, insurance settlements, refunds or payments into revolving funds exceeds specifically appropriated amounts may request budget increases from the state budget division. If approved by the state budget division, such money is appropriated.
J. Pursuant to Section 6-4-2 NMSA 1978, federal funds received during fiscal year 2010 and not specifically appropriated shall be subject to future appropriation by the legislature provided, however, that an agency may request a budget increase during fiscal year 2010 from the state budget division if the agency submits documentation to the state budget division and to the legislative finance committee showing that all of the following five requirements have been met:
(1) the requested budget increase is for federal funds the amount of which could not have been reasonably anticipated or known during the first session of the forty-ninth legislature and, therefore, could not have been requested by the agency or appropriated by the legislature;
(2) the federal law authorizing the disbursement of the federal funds to the state requires the funds to be expended for specific programs or specific governmental functions without leaving a policy choice to the state of how the funds are to be expended;
(3) the state has no discretion as to the programs or governmental functions for which the federal funds will be expended;
(4) the executive branch has had no input into the selection of the programs or governmental functions for which the federal funds are required to be expended; and
(5) due to the emergency nature of the purpose of the federal funds or the likelihood that the federal funds will be unavailable in the future, the funds need to be budgeted and expended before the second session of the forty-ninth legislature.
K. For fiscal year 2010, the number of permanent and term full-time-equivalent positions specified for each agency shows the maximum number of employees intended by the legislature for that agency, unless another provision of the General Appropriation Act of 2009 or another act of the first session of the forty-ninth legislature provides for additional employees.
L. Except for gasoline credit cards used solely for operation of official vehicles, telephone credit cards used solely for official business and procurement cards used as authorized by Section 6-5-9.1 NMSA 1978, none of the appropriations contained in the General Appropriation Act of 2009 may be expended for payment of agency-issued credit card invoices.
M. To prevent unnecessary spending, expenditures from the General Appropriation Act of 2009 for gasoline for state-owned vehicles at public gasoline service stations shall be made only for self-service gasoline provided that a state agency head may provide exceptions from the requirement to accommodate disabled persons or for other reasons the public interest may require.
N. For the purpose of administering the General Appropriation Act of 2009 and approving operating budgets, the state of New Mexico shall follow the modified accrual basis of accounting for governmental funds in accordance with the manual of model accounting practices issued by the department of finance and administration.
