    (((17))) (18) Not more than $458,000 of the general fund‑-state appropriation may be expended for the operation of the Pacific northwest export assistance project.  The department will continue to implement a plan for assessing fees for services provided by the project.  It is the intent of the legislature that the revenues raised to defray the expenditures of this program will be increased to fifty percent of the expenditures in fiscal year 1996 and seventy-five percent of the expenditures in fiscal year 1997.  Beginning in fiscal year 1998, the legislature intends that this program will be fully self-supporting.

    (((18))) (19) $4,804,000 of the public safety and education account appropriation is provided solely for contracts with qualified legal aid programs for civil indigent legal representation pursuant to RCW 43.08.260.  It is the intent of the legislature to ensure that legal aid programs receiving funds appropriated in this act pursuant to RCW 43.08.260 comply with all applicable restrictions on use of these funds.  To this end, during the 1995-97 fiscal biennium the department shall monitor compliance with the authorizing legislation, shall oversee the implementation of this subsection, and shall report directly to the appropriations committee of the house of representatives and the ways and means committee of the senate.

    (a) It is the intent of the legislature to improve communications between legal aid programs and persons affected by the activities of legal aid programs.  There is established for the 1995-97 fiscal biennium a task force on agricultural interests/legal aid relations.  The task force shall promote better understanding and cooperation between agricultural interests and legal aid programs and shall provide a forum for discussion of issues of common concern.  The task force shall not involve itself in pending litigation.

    (i) The task force shall consist of the following sixteen members:  Four representatives of agricultural organizations, to be appointed by the legislator members; two individuals who represent the corresponding interests of legal clients, to be appointed by organizations designated by the three legal services programs; two representatives of Evergreen Legal Services, to be appointed by its board of directors; one representative each from Puget Sound Legal Assistance Foundation and Spokane Legal Services Center, each to be appointed by its directors; one member from each of the majority and minority caucuses of the house of representatives, to be appointed by the speaker of the house of representatives; one member from each of the majority and minority caucuses of the senate, to be appointed by the president of the senate; and two members of the supreme court-appointed access to justice board, to be appointed by the board.  During fiscal year 1996, the task force shall be chaired by a legislative member, to be selected by the task force members.  During fiscal year 1997, the committee shall be chaired by a nonlegislator member, to be selected by the task force members.

    (ii) All costs associated with the meetings shall be borne by the individual task force members or by the organizations that the individuals represent.  No task force member shall be eligible for reimbursement of expenses under RCW 43.03.050 or 43.03.060.  Nothing in this subsection prevents the legal aid programs from using funds appropriated in this act to reimburse their representatives or the individuals representing legal clients.

    (iii) The task force will meet at least four times during the first year of the biennium and as frequently as necessary thereafter at mutually agreed upon times and locations.  Any member of the task force may place items on meeting agendas.  Members present at the first two task force meetings shall agree upon a format for subsequent meetings.

    (b) The legislature recognizes that farmworkers have the right to receive basic information and to consult with attorneys at farm labor camps without fear of intimidation or retaliation.  It is the intent of the legislature and in the interest of the public to ensure the safety of all persons affected by legal aid programs' farm labor camp outreach activities.  Legal aid program employees have the legal right to enter the common areas of a labor camp or to request permission of employees to enter their dwellings.  Employees living in grower supplied housing have the right to refuse entry to anyone including attorneys unless they have a warrant.  Individual employees living in employer supplied housing do not have the right to force legal aid program employees to leave common areas of housing (outside) as long as one person who resides in the associated dwellings wants that person to be there.  Any legal aid program employee wishing to visit employees housed on grower property has the right to enter the driveway commonly used by the housing occupants.  This means that if agricultural employees must use a grower's personal driveway to get to their housing, legal aid program employees also may use that driveway to access the housing without a warrant so long as at least some of the housing is occupied.  When conducting outreach activities that involve entry onto labor camps, legal aid programs shall establish and abide by policies regarding conduct of outreach activities.  The policies shall include a requirement that legal aid program employees identify themselves to persons whom they encounter at farm labor camps.  The legal aid programs shall provide copies of their current outreach policies to known agricultural organizations and shall provide copies upon request to any owner of property on which farmworkers are housed.  Legal aid program employees involved in outreach activities shall attempt to inform operators of licensed farm labor camps or their agents, and known grower organizations of the approximate time frame for outreach activities and shall cooperate with operators of farm labor camps at which farmworkers are housed in assuring compliance with all pertinent laws and ordinances, including those related to trespass and harassment.  Employers who believe that Evergreen Legal Services Outreach Guidelines have been violated shall promptly provide all available information on the alleged violation to the director of Evergreen Legal Services and to the chair of the Task Force on Agricultural Interests/Legal Aid Relations.  Evergreen Legal Services will promptly investigate any alleged violations of the outreach guidelines and inform the complaining party of the result.  If the resolution of the investigation is not satisfactory to the complainant, the matter shall be placed on the Task Force agenda for discussion at the next scheduled meeting.  Employers who believe that Evergreen Legal Services staff members have trespassed should immediately contact local law enforcement authorities.

    (c) It is the intent of the legislature to provide the greatest amount of legal services to the largest number of clients by discouraging inefficient use of state funding for indigent legal representation.  To this end, it is the intent of the legislature that, prior to the commencement of litigation against any private employer relating to the terms and conditions of employment legal aid programs receiving funds appropriated in this act make good faith written demand for the requested relief, a good faith offer of settlement or an offer to submit to nonbinding arbitration prior to filing a lawsuit, unless the making of the offer is, in the opinion of the director of the legal services program or his/her designee, clearly prejudicial to:  (i) The health, safety, or security of the client; or (ii) the timely availability of judicial relief.  The director of the legal aid program may designate not more than two persons for purposes of making the determination of prejudice permitted by this section.

    (d)(i) The legislature encourages legal aid programs to devote their state and nonstate funding to the basic, daily legal needs of indigent persons.  No funds appropriated under this act may be used for legal representation and activities outside the scope of RCW 43.08.260.

    (ii) No funds appropriated in this act may be used for lobbying as defined in RCW 43.08.260(3).  Legal aid programs receiving funds appropriated in this act shall comply with all restrictions on lobbying contained in Federal Legal Services Corporation Act (P.L. 99-951) and regulations promulgated thereunder.

    (e) No funds appropriated in this act may be used by legal aid programs for representation of undocumented aliens.

    (f) The legislature recognizes the duty of legal aid programs to preserve inviolate and prevent the disclosure of, in the absence of knowing and voluntary client consent, client information protected by the United States Constitution, the Washington Constitution, the attorney-client privilege, or any applicable attorney rule of professional conduct.  However, to the extent permitted by applicable law, legal aid programs receiving funds appropriated in this act shall, upon request, provide information on their activities to the department and to legislators for purposes of monitoring compliance with authorizing legislation and this subsection.

    (g) Nothing in this subsection is intended to limit the authority of existing entities, including but not limited to the Washington state bar association, the public disclosure commission, and the Federal Legal Services Corporation, to resolve complaints or disputes within their jurisdiction.

(20) $3,050,000 of the general fund--federal appropriation is provided solely to develop and operate housing for low-income farmworkers.  The housing assistance program shall implement this initiative in consultation with the department of social and health services, the department of health, and the department of labor and industries.

(21) $719,000 of the general fund--state appropriation is provided solely for energy-related functions transferred by House Bill No. 2009 or Senate Bill No. 6451 (state energy office).  Of this amount:

(b) $44,000 is provided solely for extended insurance benefits for employees separated as a result of Second Substitute Senate Bill No. 6451.  An eligible employee may receive a state subsidy of $150 per month toward his or her insurance benefits purchased under the federal consolidated omnibus budget reconciliation act (COBRA) for a period not to exceed one year from the date of separation; and

SUPERINTENDENT OF PUBLIC INSTRUCTION‑-FOR SPECIAL EDUCATION PROGRAMS

General Fund‑-State Appropriation (FY 1996).... $  ((380,179,000))

379,771,000

General Fund‑-State Appropriation (FY 1997).... $  ((373,289,000))

371,142,000

           TOTAL APPROPRIATION................. $  ((852,152,000))

849,597,000

    The appropriations in this section are subject to the following conditions and limitations:

    (1) The general fund‑-state appropriation includes such funds as are necessary for the remaining months of the 1994‑95 school year.

    (2) In recognition of the need for increased flexibility at the local district level to facilitate the provision of appropriate education to children ((with disabilities)) in need of special education, and the need for substantive educational reform for a significant portion of the school population, the funding formula for special education is modified.  These changes result from a 1994 study and recommendations by the institute for public policy and the legislative budget committee, aided by the office of the superintendent of public instruction and the statewide task force for the development of special education funding alternatives.  The new formula is for allocation purposes only and is not intended to prescribe or imply any particular pattern of special education service delivery other than that contained in a properly formulated, locally determined, individualized education program.

    (3) The superintendent of public instruction shall distribute state funds to school districts based on two categories, the mandatory special education program for special education students ages three to twenty-one and the optional birth through age two program for developmentally delayed infants and toddlers.  The superintendent shall review current state eligibility criteria for the fourteen special education categories and consider changes which would reduce assessment time and administrative costs associated with the special education program.

    (4) For the 1995-96 and 1996-97 school years, the superintendent shall distribute state funds to each district based on the sum of:

    (a) A district's annual average headcount enrollment of  developmentally delayed infants and toddlers ages birth through two, times the district's average basic education allocation per full-time equivalent student, times 1.15; and

    (b) A district's annual average full-time equivalent basic education enrollment times the enrollment percent, times the district's average basic education allocation per full-time equivalent student times 0.9309.

    (5) The definitions in this subsection apply throughout this section.

    (a) "Average basic education allocation per full-time equivalent student" for a district shall be based on the staffing ratios required by RCW 28A.150.260 (i.e., 49/1000 certificated instructional staff in grades K-3, and 46/1000 in grades 4-12), and shall not include enhancements for K-3, secondary vocational education, or small schools.

    (b) "Annual average full-time equivalent basic education enrollment" means the resident enrollment including students enrolled through choice (RCW 28A.225.225) and students from nonhigh districts (RCW 28A.225.210) and excluding students residing in another district enrolled as part of an interdistrict cooperative program (RCW 28A.225.250).

    (c) "Enrollment percent" shall mean the district's resident special education annual average enrollment including those students counted under the special education demonstration projects, excluding the birth through age two enrollment, as a percent of the district's annual average full-time equivalent basic education enrollment.  For the 1995-96 and the 1996-97 school years, each district's enrollment percent shall be:

    (i) For districts whose enrollment percent for 1994-95 was at or below 12.7 percent, the lesser of the district's actual enrollment percent for the school year for which the allocation is being determined or 12.7 percent.

    (ii) For districts whose enrollment percent for 1994-95 was above 12.7 percent, the lesser of:

    (A) The district's actual enrollment percent for the school year for which the special education allocation is being determined; or

    (B) The district's actual enrollment percent for the school year immediately prior to the school year for which the special education allocation is being determined; or

    (C) For 1995-96, the 1994-95 enrollment percent reduced by 25 percent of the difference between the district's 1994-95 enrollment percent and 12.7.  For 1996-97, the 1994-95 enrollment percent reduced by 50 percent of the difference between the district's 1994-95 enrollment percent and 12.7.

(6) For interdistrict cooperatives of at least 15 districts in which all excess cost services for special education students of the districts are provided by the cooperative, the maximum enrollment percent shall be 12.7, and shall be calculated in the aggregate rather than individual district units.  For purposes of subsection (5) of this section, the average basic education allocation per full-time equivalent student shall be calculated in the aggregate rather than individual district units.

    (((6))) (7) A minimum of $4.5 million of the general fund‑-federal appropriation shall be expended for safety net funding to meet the extraordinary needs of individual special education students.

    (((7))) (8) From the general fund‑-state appropriation, $14,600,000 is provided for the 1995-96 school year, and $19,575,000 for the 1996-97 school year, for safety net purposes for districts with demonstrable funding needs for special education beyond the combined amounts provided in subsection (4) of this section.  The superintendent of public instruction shall, by rule, establish procedures and standards for allocation of safety net funds.  In the 1995-96 school year, school districts shall submit their requests for safety net funds to the appropriate regional committee established by the superintendent of public instruction.  Regional committees shall make recommendations to the state oversight committee for approval.  For the 1996-97 school year, requests for safety net funds under this subsection shall be submitted to the state oversight committee.  The following conditions and limitations shall be applicable to school districts requesting safety net funds:

    (a) For a school district requesting state safety net funds due to special characteristics of the district and costs of providing services which differ significantly from the assumptions contained in the funding formula, the procedures and standards shall permit relief only if a district can demonstrate at a minimum that:

    (i) Individualized education plans are appropriate and are properly and efficiently prepared and formulated;

    (ii) The district is making a reasonable effort to provide appropriate program services for special education students utilizing state funds generated by the apportionment and special education funding formulas;

    (iii) The district's programs are operated in a reasonably efficient manner and that the district has adopted a plan of action to contain or eliminate any unnecessary, duplicative, or inefficient practices;

    (iv) Indirect costs charged to this program do not exceed the allowable percent for the federal special education program;

    (v) Any available federal funds are insufficient to address the additional needs; and

    (vi) The costs of any supplemental contracts are not charged to this program for purposes of making these determinations.

    (b) For districts requesting safety net funds due to federal maintenance of effort requirements as a result of changes in the state special education funding formula, the procedures and standards shall permit relief only if a district can demonstrate at a minimum that:

    (i) Individualized education plans are appropriate and are properly and efficiently prepared and formulated; and

    (ii) The district is making a reasonable effort to provide appropriate program services for special education students utilizing state funds generated by the apportionment and special education funding formulas((; and

    (iii) Calculations made in accordance with subsection (8) of this section with respect to state fund allocations justify a need for additional funds for compliance with federal maintenance of effort requirements)).

(c) For districts requesting safety net funds due to federal maintenance of effort requirements as a result of changes in the state special education funding formula, amounts provided for this purpose shall be calculated by the superintendent of public instruction and adjusted periodically based on the most current information available to the superintendent.  The amount provided shall not exceed the lesser of:

(i) The district's 1994-95 state excess cost allocation for resident special education students minus the relevant school year's state special education formula allocation;

(ii) The district's 1994-95 state excess cost allocation per resident special education student multiplied by the number of formula funded special education students for the relevant school year minus the relevant school year's special education formula allocation;

(iii) The amount requested by the district; or

(iv) The amount awarded by the state oversight committee.

    (((8))) (9)(a) For purposes of making safety net determinations pursuant to subsection (((7))) (8) of this section, the superintendent shall make available to each school district, from available data, prior to June 1st of each year:

    (i) The district's 1994-95 enrollment percent;

    (ii) For districts with a 1994-95 enrollment percent over 12.7 percent, the maximum 1995-96 enrollment percent, and prior to 1996-97 the maximum 1996-97 enrollment percent;

    (iii) The estimate to be used for purposes of subsection (((7))) (8) of this section of each district's 1994-95 special education allocation showing the excess cost and the basic education portions; and

    (iv) If necessary, a process for each district to estimate the 1995-96 school year excess cost allocation for special education and the portion of the basic education allocation formerly included in the special education allocation.  This process may utilize the allocations generated pursuant to subsection (4) of this section, each district's 1994-95 estimated basic education backout percent for the 1994-95 school year, and state compensation increases for 1995-96.

    (b) The superintendent, in consultation with the state auditor, shall take all necessary steps to successfully transition to the new formula and minimize paperwork at the district level associated with federal maintenance of effort calculations. The superintendent shall develop such rules and procedures as are necessary to implement this process ((for the 1995-96 school year, and may use the same process for the 1996-97 school year if found necessary for federal maintenance of effort calculations)).

    (((9))) (10) Prior to adopting any standards, procedures, or processes required to implement this section, the superintendent shall consult with the office of financial management and the fiscal committees of the legislature.

    (((13))) (14) A maximum of $678,000 may be expended from the general fund‑-state appropriation to fund 5.43 full-time equivalent teachers and 2.1 full-time equivalent aides at Children's orthopedic hospital and medical center.  This amount is in lieu of money provided through the home and hospital allocation and the special education program.

    (((14))) (15) $1,000,000 of the general fund‑-federal appropriation is provided solely for projects to provide special education students with appropriate job and independent living skills, including work experience where possible, to facilitate their successful transition out of the public school system.  The funds provided by this subsection shall be from federal discretionary grants.

    The appropriations in this section are subject to the following conditions and limitations:

    (1)(a) The monthly contribution for insurance benefit premiums shall not exceed $308.14 per eligible employee for fiscal year 1996, and $308.96 for fiscal year 1997.

    (b) The monthly contributions for the margin in the self-insured medical and dental plans and for the operating costs of the health care authority shall not exceed $5.81 per eligible employee for fiscal year 1996, and $5.55 for fiscal year 1997.

    (c) Surplus moneys accruing to the public employees' and retirees' insurance account due to lower-than-projected insurance costs or due to employee waivers of coverage may not be reallocated by the health care authority to increase the actuarial value of public employee insurance plans, except as provided in (d) of this subsection.  Such funds shall be held in reserve in the public employees' and retirees' insurance account and may not be expended without subsequent legislative authorization.

    (d) In order to achieve the level of funding provided for health benefits, the public employees' benefits board may require employee premium co-payments, increase point-of-service cost sharing, and/or implement managed competition.  Beginning July 1, 1996:

(i) The nine plans that, on a state-wide basis, are the lowest-cost shall be offered by the public employees' benefits board at no cost to eligible employees, their children, and their spouses.

(ii) In those areas of the state without access to any of the nine lowest-cost plans, the public employees' benefits board shall offer at least one plan at no cost to eligible employees, their children, and their spouses.  The plans offered at no cost shall be plans for which the charge during fiscal year 1996 did not exceed $20 for an employee, spouse, and children.

It is the intention of the legislature to require in the 1997-99 omnibus appropriations act the public employees' benefits board to make available a free plan to every eligible employee, child, and spouse.

    (2) To facilitate the transfer of moneys from dedicated funds and accounts, the state treasurer is directed to transfer sufficient moneys from each dedicated fund or account to the special fund salary and insurance contribution increase revolving fund in accordance with schedules provided by the office of financial management.

    (3) The health care authority, subject to the approval of the public employees' benefits board, shall provide subsidies for health benefit premiums to eligible retired or disabled public employees and school district employees who are eligible for parts A and B of medicare, pursuant to RCW 41.05.085.  From July 1, 1995, through December 31, 1995, the subsidy shall be $34.20 per month.  From January 1, 1996, through December 31, 1996, the subsidy shall be $36.77 per month.  Starting January 1, 1997, the subsidy shall be $39.52 per month.

    (4) Technical colleges, school districts, and educational service districts shall remit to the health care authority for deposit in the public employees' and retirees' insurance account established in RCW 41.05.120:

    (a) For each full-time employee, $14.79 per month beginning October 1, 1995, and $14.80 per month beginning September 1, 1996;

    (b) For each part-time employee who, at the time of the remittance, is employed in an eligible position as defined in RCW 41.32.010 or 41.40.010 and is eligible for employer fringe benefit contributions for basic benefits, $14.79 each month beginning October 1, 1995, and $14.80 each month beginning September 1, 1996, prorated by the proportion of employer fringe benefit contributions for a full-time employee that the part-time employee receives.

    The remittance requirements specified in this subsection shall not apply to employees of a technical college, school district, or educational service district who purchase insurance benefits through contracts with the health care authority.

    (5) The salary and insurance increase revolving account appropriation includes funds sufficient to fund health benefits for ferry workers at the premium levels specified in subsection (1) of this section, consistent with the 1995-97 transportation appropriations act.

    (6) Rates charged to school districts voluntarily purchasing employee benefits through the health care authority shall be equivalent to the actual insurance costs of benefits and administration costs for state and higher education employees except:

    (a) The health care authority is authorized to reduce rates charged to school districts for up to 10,000 new subscribers by applying surplus funds accumulated in the public employees' and retirees' insurance account.  Rates may be reduced up to a maximum of $10.93 per subscriber per month in fiscal year 1996 and a maximum of $7.36 per subscriber per month in fiscal year 1997; and

    (b) For employees who first begin receiving benefits through the health care authority after September 1, 1995, districts shall remit the additional costs of health care authority administration resulting from their enrollment.  The additional health care authority administration costs shall not exceed $.30 per month per subscriber.
