Fiscal Note Summary


Effect this measure will have on costs and revenues of state government.


Approval of this bill, specifically WVDHSEM having Human Resource Functions at a high level, would incur the hiring of two HR personnel. The cost of two individuals, fringes, equipment, and training should not exceed an additional $300,000 for the WVDHSEM budget. The benefit of this change enables better utilization of Federal funding (typically FEMA), for current and future disasters.
