The distribution formula shall use the number of persons eligible for the state medical programs funded under chapter 74.09 RCW as the measure of the requirement for the number of acutely mentally ill, chronically mentally ill, severely emotionally disturbed children, and seriously disturbed in accordance with RCW 71.24.035(13)(a). The new formula shall be phased in over a period of no less than six years. Furthermore, the department shall increase the medicaid capitation rates which a regional support network would otherwise receive under the formula by an amount sufficient to assure that total funding allocated to the regional support network in fiscal year 2002 increases by up to 3.5 percent over the amount actually paid to that regional support network in fiscal year 2001, and by up to an additional 5.0 percent in fiscal year 2003, if total funding to the regional support network would otherwise increase by less than those percentages under the new formula, and provided that the nonfederal share of the higher medicaid payment rate is provided by the regional support network from local funds.

(f) Within funds appropriated in this subsection, the department shall contract with the Clark county regional support network for development and operation of a project demonstrating collaborative methods for providing intensive mental health services in the school setting for severely emotionally disturbed children who are medicaid eligible. Project services are to be delivered by teachers and teaching assistants who qualify as, or who are under the supervision of, mental health professionals meeting the requirements of chapter 275-57 WAC. The department shall increase medicaid payments to the regional support network by the amount necessary to cover the necessary and allowable costs of the demonstration, not to exceed the upper payment limit specified for the regional support network in the department's medicaid waiver agreement with the federal government after meeting all other medicaid spending requirements assumed in this subsection. The regional support network shall provide the department with (i) periodic reports on project service levels, methods, and outcomes; and (ii) an intergovernmental transfer equal to the state share of the increased medicaid payment provided for operation of this project.

(g) The health services account appropriation is provided solely for implementation of strategies which the department and the affected regional support networks conclude will best assure continued availability of community-based inpatient psychiatric services in all areas of the state. Such strategies may include, but are not limited to, emergency contracts for continued operation of inpatient facilities otherwise at risk of closure because of demonstrated uncompensated care; start-up grants for development of evaluation and treatment facilities; and increases in the rate paid for inpatient psychiatric services for medically indigent and/or general assistance for the unemployed patients. The funds provided in this subsection must be: (i) Prioritized for use in those areas of the state which are at greatest risk of lacking sufficient inpatient psychiatric treatment capacity, rather than being distributed on a formula basis; (ii) prioritized for use by those hospitals which do not receive low-income disproportionate share hospital payments as of the date of application for funding; and (iii) matched on a one-quarter local, three-quarters state basis by funding from the regional support network or networks in the area in which the funds are expended. Payments from the amount provided in this subsection shall not be made to any provider that has not agreed that, except for prospective rate increases, the payment shall offset, on a dollar-for-dollar basis, any liability that may be established against, or any settlement that may be agreed to by the state, regarding the rate of state reimbursement for inpatient psychiatric care. The funds provided in this subsection shall not be considered "available resources" as defined in RCW 71.24.025 and are not subject to the distribution formula established pursuant to RCW 71.24.035.

(((i))) (h) The department shall assure that each regional support network increases spending on direct client services in fiscal years 2002 and 2003 by at least the same percentage as the total state, federal, and local funds allocated to the regional support network in those years exceeds the amounts allocated to it in fiscal year 2001.

(((j))) (i) The department shall reduce state funding otherwise payable to a regional support network in fiscal years 2002 and 2003 by the full amount by which the regional support network's reserves and fund balances as of December 31, 2001, exceed the required risk reserve for that regional support network. The required reserve amount shall be calculated by applying the risk reserve percentage specified in the department's contract with the regional support network to the total state and federal revenues for which the regional support network would otherwise be eligible in accordance with this subsection. As used in this subsection, "reserves" does not include capital project reserves established in accordance with state accounting and reporting standards before January 1, 2002.

No such patient is to move from the hospital until a team of community professionals has become familiar with the person and their treatment plan; assessed their strengths, preferences, and needs; arranged a safe, clinically-appropriate, and stable place for them to live; assured that other needed medical, behavioral, and social services are in place; and is contracted to monitor the person's progress on an ongoing basis. The department and the regional support networks shall endeavor to assure that hospital patients are able to return to their area of origin, and that placements are not concentrated in proximity to the hospitals.

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

(1) Funding for special education programs is provided on an excess cost basis, pursuant to RCW 28A.150.390. School districts shall ensure that special education students as a class receive their full share of the general apportionment allocation accruing through sections 502 and 504 of this act. To the extent a school district cannot provide an appropriate education for special education students under chapter 28A.155 RCW through the general apportionment allocation, it shall provide services through the special education excess cost allocation funded in this section.

(2)(a) Effective with the 2001-02 school year, the superintendent of public instruction shall change the S-275 personnel reporting system and all related accounting requirements to ensure that:

(ii) As a class, special education students are entitled to the full basic education allocation; and

(iii) Special education students are basic education students for the entire school day.

(b) Effective with the 2001-02 school year, the S-275 and accounting changes shall supercede any prior excess cost methodologies and shall be required of all school districts.

(3) Each fiscal year appropriation includes such funds as are necessary to complete the school year ending in the fiscal year and for prior fiscal year adjustments.

(4) The superintendent of public instruction shall distribute state funds to school districts based on two categories: The optional birth through age two program for special education eligible developmentally delayed infants and toddlers, and the mandatory special education program for special education eligible students ages three to twenty-one. A "special education eligible student" means a student receiving specially designed instruction in accordance with a properly formulated individualized education program.

(5)(a) For the 2001-02 and 2002-03 school years, the superintendent shall make allocations to each district based on the sum of:

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

(ii) A district's annual average full-time equivalent basic education enrollment multiplied by the funded enrollment percent determined pursuant to subsection (6)(b) of this section, multiplied by the district's average basic education allocation per full-time equivalent student multiplied by 0.9309.

(b) For purposes of this subsection, "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 and shall not include enhancements, secondary vocational education, or small schools.

(a) "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).

(b) "Enrollment percent" means the district's resident special education annual average enrollment, excluding the birth through age two enrollment, as a percent of the district's annual average full-time equivalent basic education enrollment.

(i) For the 2001-02 school year, each district's funded enrollment percent shall be the lesser of the district's actual enrollment percent or 12.7 percent.

(ii) For the 2002-03 school year, each district's general fund--state funded special education enrollment shall be the lesser of the district's actual enrollment percent or 12.7 percent. Increases in enrollment percent from 12.7 percent to 13.0 percent shall be funded from the general fund--federal appropriation.

(7) At the request of any interdistrict cooperative 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 calculated in accordance with subsection (6)(b) of this section, and shall be calculated in the aggregate rather than individual district units. For purposes of this subsection, the average basic education allocation per full-time equivalent student shall be calculated in the aggregate rather than individual district units.

(8) Safety net funding shall be awarded by the state safety net oversight committee subject to the following conditions and limitations:

(a) A maximum of $8,500,000 of the general fund--state appropriation and a maximum of $3,500,000 of the general fund--federal appropriation for fiscal year 2002 are provided as safety net funding for districts with demonstrated needs for state special education funding beyond the amounts provided in subsection (5) of this section. (b) The safety net oversight committee shall first consider the needs of districts adversely affected by the 1995 change in the special education funding formula. Awards shall be based on the lesser of the amount required to maintain the 1994-95 state special education excess cost allocation to the school district in aggregate or on a dollar per funded student basis.

(c) The committee shall then consider unmet needs for districts that can convincingly demonstrate that all legitimate expenditures for special education exceed all available revenues from state funding formulas. In the determination of need, the committee shall also consider additional available revenues from federal and local sources. Differences in program costs attributable to district philosophy, service delivery choice, or accounting practices are not a legitimate basis for safety net awards.

(d) The maximum allowable indirect cost for calculating safety net eligibility may not exceed the federal restricted indirect cost rate for the district plus one percent.

(e) Safety net awards shall be adjusted based on the percent of potential medicaid eligible students billed as calculated by the superintendent in accordance with chapter 318, Laws of 1999.

(f) Safety net awards must be adjusted for any audit findings or exceptions related to special education funding.

(g) The superintendent may expend up to $120,000 of the amounts provided in this subsection (8) to provide staff assistance to the committee in analyzing applications for safety net funds received by the committee.

(9) For fiscal year 2003 to the extent necessary, $12,873,000 of the general fund--federal appropriation is provided for safety net awards for districts with demonstrated needs for state special education funding beyond the amounts provided in subsection (5) of this section. If safety net awards exceed the amount appropriated in this subsection (9), the superintendent shall expend all available federal discretionary funds necessary to meet this need. Safety net funds shall be awarded by the state safety net oversight committee subject to the following conditions and limitations:

(a) The committee shall consider unmet needs for districts that can convincingly demonstrate that all legitimate expenditures for special education exceed all available revenues from state funding formulas. In the determination of need, the committee shall also consider additional available revenues from federal and local sources. Differences in program costs attributable to district philosophy, service delivery choice, or accounting practices are not a legitimate basis for safety net awards.

(b) The committee shall then consider the extraordinary high cost needs of one or more individual special education students. Differences in costs attributable to district philosophy, service delivery choice, or accounting practices are not a legitimate basis for safety net awards.

(c) The maximum allowable indirect cost for calculating safety net eligibility may not exceed the federal restricted indirect cost rate for the district plus one percent.

(d) Safety net awards shall be adjusted based on the percent of potential medicaid eligible students billed as calculated by the superintendent in accordance with chapter 318, Laws of 1999.

(e) Safety net awards must be adjusted for any audit findings or exceptions related to special education funding.

(f) The superintendent may expend up to $120,000 of the amount provided from the general fund--federal appropriation in this subsection (9) to provide staff assistance to the committee in analyzing applications for safety net funds received by the committee.

(10) The superintendent of public instruction may adopt such rules and procedures as are necessary to administer the special education funding and safety net award process. Prior to revising any standards, procedures, or rules, the superintendent shall consult with the office of financial management and the fiscal committees of the legislature.

(11) The safety net oversight committee appointed by the superintendent of public instruction shall consist of:

(d) One or more representatives from school districts or educational service districts knowledgeable of special education programs and funding.

(12) To the extent necessary, in fiscal year 2002, $2,250,000 of the general fund--federal appropriation shall be expended for safety net funding to meet the extraordinary needs of one or more individual special education students. If safety net awards to meet the extraordinary needs exceed $2,250,000 of the general fund--federal appropriation, the superintendent shall expend all available federal discretionary funds necessary to meet this need. General fund--state funds shall not be expended for this purpose.

(13) A maximum of $678,000 may be expended from the general fund--state appropriations 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) $1,000,000 of the general fund--federal appropriation is provided 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.

(15) The superintendent shall maintain the percentage of federal flow-through to school districts at 85 percent for the 2001-02 school year. For the 2002-03 school year, the superintendent shall allocate the federal funds as specified in this section and shall adjust federal flow-through funds accordingly. In addition to other purposes, school districts may use increased federal funds for high-cost students, for purchasing regional special education services from educational service districts, and for staff development activities particularly relating to inclusion issues.

(16) A maximum of $1,200,000 of the general fund--federal appropriation may be expended by the superintendent for projects related to use of inclusion strategies by school districts for provision of special education services. The superintendent shall prepare an information database on laws, best practices, examples of programs, and recommended resources. The information may be disseminated in a variety of ways, including workshops and other staff development activities.

(17) A school district may carry over from one year to the next year up to 10 percent of general fund--state funds allocated under this program; however, carry over funds shall be expended in the special education program.

(18) The superintendent of public instruction shall implement the recommendations of the joint legislative audit and review committee study on special education (report 01-11) only to the extent that funds have been specifically provided therefor.

FOR THE DEPARTMENT OF GENERAL ADMINISTRATION Tumwater Office Building 1 (01-S-003)

The appropriation in this section is subject to the following conditions and limitations:

(1) Planning funds are provided to lease/develop a state office building of 150,000 to 200,000 square feet on state-owned property in Tumwater according to the terms of the agreement with the Port of Olympia when the property was acquired or within the preferred development/leasing areas in Thurston county. The building shall be constructed and financed so that agency occupancy costs will not exceed comparable private market rental rates. The comparable general office space rate shall be calculated based on the three latest Thurston county leases of new space of at least 100,000 rentable square feet adjusted for inflation as determined by the department of general administration. The department of general administration shall coordinate with potential state agency tenants whose current lease expire near the time of occupancy so that buyout of current leases do not add to state expense.

(2) The department shall finance this project using a financing contract as authorized in section 907(2)(c), chapter 8, Laws of 2001 2nd sp. sess., with title passing to the state if all payments are made as provided in the contract. Should the department choose to use a financing contract that does not provide for the issuance of certificates of participation, the financing contract shall be subject to approval by the state finance committee as required by RCW 39.94.010. In approving a financing contract not providing for the use of certificates of participation, the state finance committee should be reasonably certain that the contract is excluded from the computation of indebtedness, particularly that the contract is not backed by the full faith and credit of the state and the legislature is expressly not obligated to appropriate funds to make payments. For purposes of this section, "financing contract" includes but is not limited to a certificate of participation and tax exempt financing similar to that authorized in RCW 47.79.140.
