* The FY 2016 Big Bill included estimates for the General Fund share of reductions to internal service fund charges. After
determining how to achieve these reductions, the General Fund share was calculated based on how each internal service fund was
budgeted by each department and reductions were taken accordingly. The result was an additional General Fund Savings of $400k.

The Agency of Transportation is actively managing and tracking vacancies to meet their labor savings target. The Secretary of
Transportation reviews all vacancies weekly to ensure the Agency meets its target, and does not anticipate any issues in meeting
that target. Specific appropriation reductions have not yet been allocated; this will be captured in the 4th quarter of FY 2016 to
reflect the actual vacancy experience throughout the fiscal year.
