Explanation of above estimates (including long-range effect):
Because this is a new program without historical data assumptions and estimates are necessary. Assuming the grant and loan appropriation is successful an estimated increase from $200,000 to $300,000 is included for the full implementation. If the grant and loan appropriations continue the estimates and assumptions would vary with available general revenue funds.
