Subsequent allotment modifications shall not include transfers of moneys between sections of this act except as expressly provided in this act, nor shall allotment modifications permit moneys that are provided solely for a specified purpose to be used for other than that purpose.
     (2) The department of social and health services shall not initiate any services that require expenditure of state general fund moneys unless expressly authorized in this act or other law. The department may seek, receive, and spend, under RCW 43.79.260 through 43.79.282, federal moneys not anticipated in this act as long as the federal funding does not require expenditure of state moneys for the program in excess of amounts anticipated in this act. If the department receives unanticipated unrestricted federal moneys, those moneys shall be spent for services authorized in this act or in any other legislation providing appropriation authority, and an equal amount of appropriated state general fund moneys shall lapse. Upon the lapsing of any moneys under this subsection, the office of financial management shall notify the legislative fiscal committees. As used in this subsection, "unrestricted federal moneys" includes block grants and other funds that federal law does not require to be spent on specifically defined projects or matched on a formula basis by state funds.
     (3) The appropriations to the department of social and health services in this act shall be expended for the programs and in the amounts specified in this act.
     (4) The department is authorized to develop an integrated health care program designed to slow the progression of illness and disability and better manage medicaid expenditures for the aged and disabled population. Under this Washington medicaid integration partnership (WMIP), the department may combine and transfer such medicaid funds appropriated under sections 204, 206, 208, and 209 of this act as may be necessary to finance a unified health care plan for the WMIP program enrollment. The WMIP pilot projects shall not exceed a daily enrollment of 13,000 persons during the 2007-2009 biennium. The amount of funding assigned to the pilot projects from each program may not exceed the average per capita cost assumed in this act for individuals covered by that program, actuarially adjusted for the health condition of persons enrolled in the pilot project, times the number of clients enrolled in the pilot project. In implementing the WMIP pilot projects, the department may: (a) Withhold from calculations of "available resources" as set forth in RCW 71.24.025 a sum equal to the capitated rate for individuals enrolled in the pilots; and (b) employ capitation financing and risk-sharing arrangements in collaboration with health care service contractors licensed by the office of the insurance commissioner and qualified to participate in both the medicaid and medicare programs. The department shall conduct an evaluation of the WMIP, measuring changes in participant health outcomes, changes in patterns of service utilization, participant satisfaction, participant access to services, and the state fiscal impact.

Under the department's proposed rate system, effective August 1, 2007, each hospital's inpatient psychiatric payment rate would have been set at a percentage of that hospital's estimated per diem cost for psychiatric inpatient care during the most recent rebasing year. Within the amount provided in this subsection (1)(m), beginning August 1, 2007, each hospital's inpatient psychiatric payment rate shall instead be set at the greater of a percentage of: (i) The hospital's estimated per diem cost for psychiatric inpatient care during the most recent rebasing year; or (ii) the statewide average per diem cost for psychiatric inpatient care during the most recent rebasing year, adjusted for regional wage differences and for differences in medical education costs.

(i) The legislature intends and expects that regional support networks and community mental health agencies will use at least 67 percent of the amounts provided in this subsection(1)(o) to increase compensation for direct care personnel above and beyond usual and customary wage increases. To this end, regional support networks shall report to the department by October 15, 2007, on planned uses of the rate increases within their network area. The report shall describe the direct care job classifications to which increases are to be provided; the number of full-time equivalent personnel employed in each classification; the annualized dollar and percentage increases to be provided each classification; the annualized dollar value of the direct care compensation increases provided, in total and as a percentage of the total rate increase; and the number of personnel in each job classification covered by a collective bargaining agreement.

     The appropriations in this section are subject to the following conditions and limitations:
     (1) Based on quarterly expenditure reports and caseload forecasts, if the department estimates that expenditures for the medical assistance program will exceed the appropriations, the department shall take steps including but not limited to reduction of rates or elimination of optional services to reduce expenditures so that total program costs do not exceed the annual appropriation authority.
     (2) In determining financial eligibility for medicaid-funded services, the department is authorized to disregard recoveries by Holocaust survivors of insurance proceeds or other assets, as defined in RCW 48.104.030.
     (3) Sufficient amounts are appropriated in this section for the department to continue podiatry services for medicaid-eligible adults.
     (4) Sufficient amounts are appropriated in this section for the department to provide an adult dental benefit that is at least equivalent to the benefit provided in the 2003-05 biennium.
     (5) In accordance with RCW 74.46.625, $6,000,000 of the general fund -- federal appropriation is provided solely for supplemental payments to nursing homes operated by public hospital districts. The public hospital district shall be responsible for providing the required nonfederal match for the supplemental payment, and the payments shall not exceed the maximum allowable under federal rules. It is the legislature's intent that the payments shall be supplemental to and shall not in any way offset or reduce the payments calculated and provided in accordance with part E of chapter 74.46 RCW. It is the legislature's further intent that costs otherwise allowable for rate-setting and settlement against payments under chapter 74.46 RCW shall not be disallowed solely because such costs have been paid by revenues retained by the nursing home from these supplemental payments.
     (6) $1,111,000 of the health services account appropriation for fiscal year 2008, $1,110,000 of the health services account appropriation for fiscal year 2009, $5,402,000 of the general fund -- federal appropriation, $1,590,000 of the general fund--state appropriation for fiscal year 2008, and $1,591,000 of the general fund--state appropriation for fiscal year 2009 are provided solely for grants to rural hospitals.

     (7) $10,546,000 of the health services account appropriation for fiscal year 2008, $10,546,000 of the health services account--state appropriation for fiscal year 2009, and $19,725,000 of the general fund -- federal appropriation are provided solely for grants to nonrural hospitals.

     (8) The department shall continue the inpatient hospital certified public expenditures program for the 2007-2009 biennium. The program shall apply to all public hospitals, including those owned or operated by the state, except those classified as critical access hospitals or state psychiatric institutions. The department shall submit a report to the governor and legislature by November 1, 2007, that evaluates whether savings continue to exceed costs for this program. If the certified public expenditures program in its current form is no longer cost-effective to maintain, the department shall submit a report to the governor and legislature detailing cost-effective alternative uses of local, state, and federal resources as a replacement for this program. During fiscal year 2008 and fiscal year 2009, hospitals in the program shall be paid and shall retain (a) one hundred percent of the federal portion of the allowable hospital cost for each medicaid inpatient fee-for-service claim payable by medical assistance; and (b) one hundred percent of the federal portion of the maximum disproportionate share hospital payment allowable under federal regulations. Inpatient medicaid payments shall be established using an allowable methodology that approximates the cost of claims submitted by the hospitals. Payments made to each hospital in the program in each fiscal year of the biennium shall be compared to a baseline amount that is the total of (a) the total payment for claims for services rendered during the fiscal year calculated according to the methodology employed by the legislature in the omnibus appropriations act for implementation in fiscal year 2008 and (b) disproportionate share hospital payment amounts paid to and retained by each hospital during fiscal year 2005 that pertain to fiscal year 2005. If payments during the fiscal year exceed the hospital's baseline amount, no additional payments will be made to the hospital except the federal portion of allowable disproportionate share hospital payments for which the hospital can certify allowable match. If payments during the fiscal year are less than the baseline amount, the hospital will be paid a state grant equal to the difference between payments during the fiscal year and the applicable baseline amount. Payment of the state grant shall be made in the applicable fiscal year and is subject to an interim cost settlement within eleven months after the end of the fiscal year. A final cost settlement shall be performed within two years after the end of the related fiscal year. To the extent that a final cost settlement determines that a hospital has received funds in excess of what it would have received under the methodology in place in fiscal year 2008 as described in this subsection, the hospital must repay these amounts to the state when requested. $74,066,000 of the general fund--state appropriation for fiscal year 2008, of which $6,570,000 is appropriated in section 204(1) of this act and the balance in this section, and $59,776,000 of the general fund--state appropriation for fiscal year 2009, of which $6,570,000 is appropriated in section 204(1) of this act and the balance in this section, are provided solely for state grants for the participating hospitals.

The amounts are conditioned on the department satisfying the requirements of section 902 of this act.
     (10) When a person is ineligible for medicaid solely by reason of residence in an institution for mental diseases, the department shall provide the person with the same benefits as he or she would receive if eligible for medicaid, using state-only funds to the extent necessary.
     (11) The department is authorized to use funds appropriated in this section to purchase goods and supplies through direct contracting with vendors when the department determines it is cost-effective to do so.
     (12) The legislature affirms that it is in the state's interest for Harborview medical center to remain an economically viable component of the state's health care system.
     (13) The department shall, within available resources, continue operation of the medical care services care management pilot project for clients receiving general assistance benefits in King and Pierce counties.

     (b) The employee, retired employee, and retired school employee are solely responsible for the payment of the premium rates developed by the health care authority. The health care authority is authorized to charge a reasonable administrative fee in addition to the premium charged by the long-term care insurer, which shall include the health care authority's cost of administration, marketing, and consumer education materials prepared by the health care authority and the office of the insurance commissioner.

The committee shall also advise the board and authority on effective and cost-effective ways to market and distribute the long-term care product. The technical advisory committee shall be comprised, at a minimum, of representatives of the office of the insurance commissioner, providers of long-term care services, licensed insurance agents with expertise in long-term care insurance, employees, retired employees, retired school employees, and other interested parties determined to be appropriate by the board.
     (e) The health care authority shall offer employees, retired employees, and retired school employees the option of purchasing long-term care insurance through licensed agents or brokers appointed by the long-term care insurer. The authority, in consultation with the public employees' benefits board, shall establish marketing procedures and may consider all premium components as a part of the contract negotiations with the long-term care insurer.
     (f) In developing the long-term care insurance benefit designs, the public employees' benefits board shall include an alternative plan of care benefit, including adult day services, as approved by the office of the insurance commissioner.
     (g) The health care authority, with the cooperation of the office of the insurance commissioner, shall develop a consumer education program for the eligible employees, retired employees, and retired school employees designed to provide education on the potential need for long-term care, methods of financing long-term care, and the availability of long-term care insurance products including the products offered by the board.
     (h) By December 1998, the health care authority, in consultation with the public employees' benefits board, shall submit a report to the appropriate committees of the legislature, including an analysis of the marketing and distribution of the long-term care insurance provided under this section.

However, by being effective in reducing the number of students eligible for these programs, school district funding is reduced.
     (b) The purpose of the program in this section is to continue support to the existing pilot districts and to encourage other school districts to participate as pilot districts to improve the implementation of high quality general education research-based core instructional programs to meet the needs of students struggling academically, while reducing the number of students inappropriately referred and placed in special education under the specific learning disability eligibility category because of ineffective instructional practices. This will allow special education programs to concentrate specially designed instruction on students who truly require special education services. The goal of this assistance is to effectively address reading, written language, and mathematics difficulties resulting in a substantially greater proportion of students meeting the progressively increasing performance standards for both the aggregate and disaggregated subgroups under federal law.
     (c) The participating pilot districts implementing the special services pilot program have met the goals of the pilot program resulting in (i) a substantial number of underachieving students meeting the progressively increasing reading performance standards and (ii) a reduction in the number of children who require special education.
     (2) Seven school districts may participate in the special services pilot program, including two school districts already participating and five additional school districts. The special services pilot program shall begin in the 2007-08 school year and conclude in the 2010-11 school year.
     (3) School districts participating in the pilot program shall receive state special education funding in accordance with state special education funding formulas and a separate pilot program appropriation from sources other than special education funds. The separate appropriation shall be: (a) The school district's estimated state special education funding for the current year based on the school district's average percentage of students age three through twenty-one who were eligible for special education services for the school year before participation as a pilot program as reported to the office of the superintendent of public instruction; minus (b) the school district's actual state special education funding based on the district's current percentage of students age three through twenty-one eligible for special education services as reported to the superintendent of public instruction.
     The superintendent shall adjust the factors in (a) of this subsection for one or more participating school districts, where legislative changes to the special education funding formula impact the funding mechanism of this program.
     (4) Participation in the pilot program shall not increase or decrease a district's ability to access the safety net for high-cost students by virtue of the district's participation in the program. Districts participating in the pilot program shall have access to the special education safety net using a modified application approach for the office of the superintendent of public instruction demonstration of financial need. The superintendent shall create a modified application to include all special education revenues received by the district, all pilot program funding, expenditures for students with individual education programs, and expenditures for students generating pilot program revenue. Districts participating in the pilot program that seek safety net funding shall convincingly demonstrate to the safety net committee that any change in demonstrated need is not attributable to their participation in this pilot program.
     (5) School districts participating in the program must agree to:
     (a) Implement the program as part of the school district's general education curriculum for all students;
     (b) Use a multitiered service delivery system to provide scientific research-based instructional interventions addressing individual student needs in the areas of reading, written language, or mathematics;
     (c) Develop and implement an assessment system to conduct universal screening, progress monitoring, targeted assessments, and outcome assessments to identify the reading, written language, or mathematics needs of each student and to monitor student progress;
     (d) Incorporate student-specific data obtained through the pilot program when conducting an evaluation to determine if the student has a disability;
     (e) Assure that parents are informed of: The amount and nature of student performance data that is collected and the general education services that are provided; the strategies for increasing the student's rate of learning; the parents' right to make a referral for special education evaluation if they suspect the student has a disability; and the parents' right to have input into designed interventions;
     (f) Assure that parents are provided assessments of achievement at reasonable intervals addressing student progress during instruction;
     (g) Actively engage parents as partners in the learning process;
     (h) Comply with state special education requirements; and
     (i) Participate and provide staff expertise in the design and implementation of an evaluation of the program as determined by the superintendent of public instruction. Districts shall annually review and report progress, including objective measures or indicators that show the progress towards achieving the purpose and goal of the program, to the office of the superintendent of public instruction.
     (6) By December 15, 2010, the superintendent of public instruction shall submit a report to the governor and appropriate committees of the legislature that summarizes the effectiveness of the pilot program in this section. The report shall also include a recommendation as to whether or not the pilot program should be continued, expanded, or otherwise modified.

     FOR THE DEPARTMENT OF SOCIAL AND HEALTH SERVICES. (1) Appropriations made in this act to the department of social and health services shall initially be allotted as required by this act. Subsequent allotment modifications shall not include transfers of moneys between sections of this act except as expressly provided in this act, nor shall allotment modifications permit moneys that are provided solely for a specified purpose to be used for other than that purpose.
     (2) The department of social and health services shall not initiate any services that require expenditure of state general fund moneys unless expressly authorized in this act or other law. The department may seek, receive, and spend, under RCW 43.79.260 through 43.79.282, federal moneys not anticipated in this act as long as the federal funding does not require expenditure of state moneys for the program in excess of amounts anticipated in this act. If the department receives unanticipated unrestricted federal moneys, those moneys shall be spent for services authorized in this act or in any other legislation providing appropriation authority, and an equal amount of appropriated state general fund moneys shall lapse. Upon the lapsing of any moneys under this subsection, the office of financial management shall notify the legislative fiscal committees. As used in this subsection, "unrestricted federal moneys" includes block grants and other funds that federal law does not require to be spent on specifically defined projects or matched on a formula basis by state funds.
     (3)(a) The appropriations to the department of social and health services in this act shall be expended for the programs and in the amounts specified in this act. However, after May 1, ((2006)) 2007, unless specifically prohibited by this act, the department may transfer general fund--state appropriations for fiscal year ((2006)) 2007 among programs after approval by the director of financial management. However, the department shall not transfer state moneys that are provided solely for a specified purpose except as expressly provided in (b) of this subsection.
     (b) To the extent that transfers under (a) of this subsection are insufficient to fund actual expenditures in excess of fiscal year ((2006)) 2007 caseload forecasts and utilization assumptions in the medical assistance, long-term care, foster care, adoption support, and child support programs, the department may transfer state moneys that are provided solely for a specified purpose, other than family support appropriations for the developmental disabilities program in section 205(1)(e) of this act and family reconciliation services appropriations for the children and family services program in section 202(20) of this act, after approval by the director of financial management.
     (c) The department shall not transfer funds, ((and the director of financial management shall not approve the transfer,)) unless the transfer is consistent with the objective of conserving, to the maximum extent possible, the expenditure of state funds ((and not federal funds)). The director of financial management shall notify the appropriate fiscal committees of the senate and house of representatives in writing seven days prior to approving any allotment modifications or transfers under this subsection. The written notification shall include a narrative explanation and justification of the changes, along with expenditures and allotments by budget unit and appropriation, both before and after any allotment modifications or transfers.
     (4) The department is authorized to expend up to $4,700,000 of its general fund--state appropriation for fiscal year 2007 for any reductions in federal funding in fiscal year 2006 for targeted case management services for children who are in the care of the state. The director of financial management shall notify the appropriate fiscal committees of the senate and house of representatives in writing seven days prior to approving any allotment modifications under this subsection.
     (5) The department is authorized to develop an integrated health care program designed to slow the progression of illness and disability and better manage Medicaid expenditures for the aged and disabled population. Under this Washington medicaid integration partnership (WMIP) the department may combine and transfer such Medicaid funds appropriated under sections 204, 206, 208, and 209 of this act as may be necessary to finance a unified health care plan for the WMIP program enrollment. The WMIP pilot projects shall not exceed a daily enrollment of 6,000 persons during the 2005-2007 biennium. The amount of funding assigned to the pilot projects from each program may not exceed the average per capita cost assumed in this act for individuals covered by that program, actuarially adjusted for the health condition of persons enrolled in the pilot, times the number of clients enrolled in the pilot. In implementing the WMIP pilot projects, the department may: (a) Withhold from calculations of "available resources" as set forth in RCW 71.24.025 a sum equal to the capitated rate for individuals enrolled in the pilots; and (b) employ capitation financing and risk-sharing arrangements in collaboration with health care service contractors licensed by the office of the insurance commissioner and qualified to participate in both the medicaid and medicare programs. The department shall conduct an evaluation of the WMIP, measuring changes in participant health outcomes, changes in patterns of service utilization, participant satisfaction, participant access to services, and the state fiscal impact.
     (6) In accordance with RCW 74.39A.300, the appropriations to the department of social and health services in this act are sufficient to implement the compensation and fringe benefits of the collective bargaining agreement reached between the governor and the exclusive bargaining representative of individual providers of home care services.

       $7,580,223,000

     The appropriations in this section are subject to the following conditions and limitations:
     (1) Based on quarterly expenditure reports and caseload forecasts, if the department estimates that expenditures for the medical assistance program will exceed the appropriations, the department shall take steps including but not limited to reduction of rates or elimination of optional services to reduce expenditures so that total program costs do not exceed the annual appropriation authority.
     (2) The department shall continue to extend medicaid eligibility to children through age 18 residing in households with incomes below 200 percent of the federal poverty level.
     (3) In determining financial eligibility for medicaid-funded services, the department is authorized to disregard recoveries by Holocaust survivors of insurance proceeds or other assets, as defined in RCW 48.104.030.

     (5) Sufficient amounts are appropriated in this section for the department to provide an adult dental benefit that is equivalent to the benefit provided in the 2003-05 biennium.
     (6) In accordance with RCW 74.46.625, $6,000,000 of the general fund -- federal appropriation is provided solely for supplemental payments to nursing homes operated by public hospital districts. The public hospital district shall be responsible for providing the required nonfederal match for the supplemental payment, and the payments shall not exceed the maximum allowable under federal rules. It is the legislature's intent that the payments shall be supplemental to and shall not in any way offset or reduce the payments calculated and provided in accordance with part E of chapter 74.46 RCW. It is the legislature's further intent that costs otherwise allowable for rate-setting and settlement against payments under chapter 74.46 RCW shall not be disallowed solely because such costs have been paid by revenues retained by the nursing home from these supplemental payments.
     (7) $2,221,000 of the health services account appropriation, $5,402,000 of the general fund -- federal appropriation, $1,590,000 of the general fund--state appropriation for fiscal year 2006, and $1,591,000 of the general fund--state appropriation for fiscal year 2007 are provided solely for grants to rural hospitals. The department shall distribute the funds under a formula that provides a relatively larger share of the available funding to hospitals that (a) serve a disproportionate share of low-income and medically indigent patients and (b) have relatively smaller net financial margins, to the extent allowed by the federal medicaid program.
     (8) $21,092,000 of the health services account appropriation and $19,725,000 of the general fund -- federal appropriation are provided solely for grants to nonrural hospitals. The department shall distribute the funds under a formula that provides a relatively larger share of the available funding to hospitals that (a) serve a disproportionate share of low-income and medically indigent patients and (b) have relatively smaller net financial margins, to the extent allowed by the federal medicaid program.
     (9) In response to the federal directive to eliminate intergovernmental transfer transactions effective June 30, 2005, the department is directed to implement the inpatient hospital certified public expenditures program for the 2005-07 biennium. The program shall apply to all public hospitals, including those owned or operated by the state, except those classified as critical access hospitals or state psychiatric institutions. Hospitals in the program shall be paid and shall retain (a) one hundred percent of the federal portion of each medicaid inpatient fee-for-service claim payable by the medical assistance administration; and (b) one hundred percent of the federal portion of the maximum disproportionate share hospital payment allowable under federal regulations. Medicaid fee-for-service claim amounts shall be established by applying the department's ratio of costs to charges payment methodology. The department shall provide participating hospitals with the information and instructions needed by the hospital to certify the public expenditures required to qualify for the federal portions of both the medicaid inpatient fee-for-service payments and the disproportionate share hospital payments. In the event that any part of the program including, but not limited to, allowable certified public expenditures, is disallowed by the federal government, the department shall not seek recoupment of payments from the hospitals, provided the hospitals have complied with the directions of the department for participation in the program. The legislature intends that hospitals in the program receive no less in combined state and federal payments than they would have received under the methodology that was in place during fiscal year 2005. The department shall therefore make additional grant payments, not to exceed the amounts specified in this subsection, to hospitals whose total payments under the program would otherwise be less than the total state and federal payments they would have received under the methodology in effect during fiscal year 2005.

The pilot grant program will be established in at least five school districts. The districts eligible for the pilot grant program shall be limited to school districts with a concentration of students residing in staffed residential homes greater than or equal to 1.3 full time equivalent students per 1,000 K-12 public students, including students who resided in staffed residential homes during the 2005-2006 school year, and transferred to another residential facility in that district as a result of a closure of one or more staffed residential homes in that district in the current or preceding school year. The amount of funding for each pilot grant district shall be in proportion to the degree of concentration of staffed residential home students residing and served in each respective district or serving high school district, and other criteria as determined by the office of the superintendent of public instruction. Funding in the pilot grant program shall not be considered part of the basic education program.
     (A) The pilot grant program is intended to: (I) Identify the fiscal and educational challenges posed to districts that serve staffed residential homes students; (II) provide resources to assist school districts in developing best practices for addressing these challenges; (III) address costs resulting from high concentrations of staffed residential home students in some school districts; (IV) develop models of collaboration between school districts and staffed residential homes; and (V) gain additional information on the variety of circumstances and needs present in the staffed residential home population, including both special education and nonspecial education eligible students.
     (B) As a condition of the pilot grant program, the selected school districts must meet the following criteria: (I) Jointly develop, with staffed residential homes in their community, a model policy and plan for collaboration and information sharing, which includes an agreed upon routine of regular communication regarding each child's progress, including for special education students the development and regular updating of individualized education programs; (II) provide an annual progress report regarding the implementation of the model policy and plan and measured progress toward meeting the educational needs of students in staffed residential homes; and (III) provide information and data to the office of the superintendent of public instruction as required for the study detailed in (D) of this subsection (c)(xviii).

This report shall be submitted by November 30, 2006.
     (D) $15,000 of the general fund--state appropriation for fiscal year 2007 is provided solely for the office of the superintendent of public instruction to report to the appropriate policy and fiscal committees of the legislature and the office of financial management on the results of the pilot grant program established in this subsection (c)(xviii), including a description of the impact on the educational services delivered to the students residing at each staffed residential home. Based on the results of the pilot grant program, the office of the superintendent of public instruction may make recommendations regarding best practices for meeting the needs of students residing in staffed residential homes, and fostering collaboration with staffed residential homes. This report shall be submitted by June 30, 2007.
     (E) For those students ((residing in staffed residential homes)) for whom a school district receives a pilot grant application and who are special education eligible, school districts are eligible to pursue safety net funding beyond the pilot grant program amounts so that the combined basic education allocation, special education excess cost allocation, pilot grant amount, and safety net grants recognize the costs associated with serving staffed residential home students potentially concentrated in a few school districts.
     (F) For purposes of this subsection (c)(xviii), "staffed residential home" means a home licensed by the department of social and health services to provide twenty-four hour care for six or fewer children or expectant mothers, which employs staff to care for them.

         Passed by the House April 22, 2007.
         Passed by the Senate April 22, 2007.
         Approved by the Governor May 15, 2007, with the exception of certain items that were vetoed.
         Filed in Office of Secretary of State May 16, 2007.

     Note: Governor's explanation of partial veto is as follows:

"I am returning, without my approval as to Sections 113(9); 127(14); 127(29); 129(11); 141(1); 214(13); 222, page 105, line 12; 307(23); 307(24); 307(30); 402, page 147, line 33; 949; 1608(4) and (5); and 1621(4) of Substitute House Bill 1128 entitled:

     "AN ACT Relating to fiscal matters."

Section 127(14), page 25, Department of Community, Trade and Economic Development, Distribution of Visitor Guides
Visitor guides are an important tool for promoting tourism to Washington State. The Department of Community, Trade and Economic Development currently has a formal agreement with the tourism industry to store and mail visitor guides as requested by the industry. The Department, in close partnership with the new tourism committee created by Substitute House Bill 1276, should have discretion on how many guides should be distributed. Therefore, I have vetoed Section 127(14).

Section 127(29), page 28, Department of Community, Trade and Economic Development, Grant to the Synergy Group
This nonprofit organization has the potential to ensure that the delivery of social services in the Lake Stevens area is accomplished more efficiently, and I encourage this type of coordination. However, this effort is more appropriately a local function, not the state's. Furthermore, the Synergy Group has not yet been legally established and does not yet have a clearly defined mission and purpose. For this reason, I have vetoed Section 127(29).

Section 129(11), pages 37-38, Office of Financial Management, Technical Assistance to Pharmacies
This proviso requires that the Office of Financial Management enter into an interagency agreement with the Department of Social and Health Services to establish a technical audit assistance program for pharmacies that provide Medicaid services, to oversee the technical assistance program, and to review and update pharmacy audit practices. No new funds were provided to accomplish these activities. In addition, the delegation of this authority to the Office of Financial Management over audit practices appears to violate the federal Medicaid Single State Agency requirement that the Department of Social and Health Services handle matters of this sort. For these reasons, I have vetoed Section 129(11).

Section 141(1), page 44, Department of General Administration, Moving Costs for Office of Minority and Women-Owned Businesses
This proviso prevents the Department of General Administration from charging the Office of Minority and Women's Business Enterprise for the cost of moving to a new office. Since the Department of General Administration is supported by rates and fees, any service that is not charged to the agency receiving the services could result in higher rates for other state agencies. Therefore, I have vetoed Section 141(1).

Section 214(13), page 97, Health Care Authority, Family Practice Residency in Southeastern Washington
This proviso establishes a family practice residency program in southwest Washington. On-going programs of this nature are best established with substantive legislation, not as a proviso in the appropriations bill. For this reason, I have vetoed Section 214(13).

Section 222, page 105, line 12, Department of Health, Oyster Reserve Land Account Appropriation
This is a technical veto to correct an over-appropriation in this account. While the Department of Health will no longer have a direct appropriation, the Department of Fish and Wildlife will enter into an agreement with the Department of Health to distribute pass-through funding to local health jurisdictions for grants to individuals to improve on-site sewage systems, as required by Substitute Senate Bill 5372, the Puget Sound Partnership. For this reason, I have vetoed Section 222, line 12.

Section 307(23), page 135, Department of Fish and Wildlife, Sinking Vessels in Puget Sound for Dive Attractions
This proviso requires that, within existing funds, the Department of Fish and Wildlife in coordination with the Department of Ecology shall evaluate the environmental impacts of sinking vessels in Puget Sound for dive attractions. A needs assessment and scoping study (including environmental impacts) for sinking ships as diving sites in Puget Sound has already been completed, and was submitted to the Office of Financial Management and the Legislature in November of 2006. No additional funding was provided for this new evaluation. For these reasons, I have vetoed Section 307(23).

Section 307(30), page 136, Department of Fish and Wildlife, Use of Appropriated Funds for Mole Trapping, Mountain Beaver Removal Enforcement
This proviso prohibits the Department of Fish and Wildlife from using appropriated funds to enforce RCW 77.15.194, providing penalties for the use of leg-hold traps for trapping by mole exterminators or for the removal of mountain beaver from forest lands. The budget bill is not the appropriate vehicle for making substantive policy changes in the way the state implements Initiative 713. No bill passed the Legislature this session modifying RCW 77.15.194. Therefore, I have vetoed section 307(30).

Section 402, line 33, page 147, Washington State Patrol, DNA Data Base Account Appropriation
A drafting error resulted in an inadvertent appropriation from the DNA Data Base Account, which is a nonappropriated fund. Funds from the nonappropriated source are still available to the State Patrol for forensic laboratory improvements. Therefore, I have vetoed the appropriation from this account.

Section 949, page 283-287, Health Care Authority, Amending the Public Employee Benefits Board Statute
In this act, the Legislature defines the maximum contribution rates to be paid by state agencies on behalf of employees for health benefits. The Public Employee Benefits Board (PEBB) uses this funding level to secure a competitive benefit package for PEBB participants. Section 949 amends existing statute to prevent the Board from revising health plan offerings if that change would increase the actuarial value of the plans for the 2007-09 Biennium. This restriction is contrary to the PEBB's responsibility to successfully manage a competitive employee benefit package within the fiscal parameters established by the Legislature. It also limits the involvement of key stakeholders (including labor, retirees, and benefit experts) in important benefit decisions. For these reasons, I have vetoed Section 949 in its entirety.

Section 1608(4) and (5), page 501, Department of Retirement Systems, Funding for 2006 Legislation
These subsections add funding for legislation that was passed in 2006, and is already in the budget. Therefore, I have vetoed Section 1608(4) and (5).

Section 1621(4), page 506, for the Office of Financial Management, Technology Funding
This proviso would prohibit the release of funds to pay for at least 35 projects with a risk-severity assessment of level 2 or greater until a feasibility study is completed and the project is approved by the Information Services Board. While I agree that these projects need careful review and scrutiny before they proceed, I am vetoing Section 1621(4) because of the added workload and complexity introduced by these requirements. However, I direct the Department of Information Services and the Information Services Board to use their existing authority to provide the review and analysis desired in this proviso so that future costs and risks are better understood before the projects are allowed to move forward.

In addition, I share the intention expressed by the Legislature in Section 903 of this bill to better manage technology investments to achieve more common and coordinated technology and data solutions. Therefore, I also direct the Department of Information Services and Information Services Board to use their existing authority to review and strengthen investment planning for information technology projects to include, at a minimum, a review of the ability of projects to better use common services and solutions. Doing so can help reduce costs and risks for individual projects and can help the state realize greater economies of scale across multiple projects.

The following sections are vetoed because the bills referenced did not pass:

Section 113(9) , page 12, Office of Administrator for the Courts, SHB 1141, Diversion Records

Section 307(24), page 135, Department of Fish and Wildlife, ESHB 1147, Damage to Livestock

For these reasons, I have vetoed Sections 113(9); 127(14); 127(29); 129(11); 141(1); 214(13); 222, page 105, line 12; 307(23); 307(24); 307(30); 402, page 147, line 33; 949; 1608 (4) and (5); and 1621(4) of Substitute House Bill 1128.

I am signing Section 307(8) which directs the Department of Fish and Wildlife to implement a joint management and collaborative enforcement agreement with the Confederated Tribes of the Colville and the Spokane Tribe without providing additional appropriations for the agreement. While I would have preferred that the Legislature provide new funding for this important endeavor, I am committed to the agreement and will work with the agency, the tribes and the Legislature to ensure its success.

With the exception of Sections 113(9); 127(14); 127(29); 129(11); 141(1); 214(13); 222, page 105, line 12; 307(23); 307(24); 307(30); 402, page 147, line 33; 949; 1608(4) and (5); and 1621(4), Substitute House Bill 1128 is approved."
