Methodology
It is assumed that the Department of Public Safety (DPS) would need five additional staff in order to review and suggest changes to the emergency management plans at a cost of $216,595 per fiscal year for salaries and wages out of General Revenue Account 99, Operators and Chauffeurs Licenses. In addition, one-time costs of $52,650 for equipment such as computers, desks, and telephones in fiscal year 2010 and ongoing costs including travel of $3,945 and other operating expenses of $33,005 per fiscal year are needed. It is assumed that the cost would continue into future years. The Office of the Governor and the Department of Aging and Disability Services indicated that any costs associated with this bill related to their agencies could be absorbed within their existing budgets.
