Total SGST proceeds would be credited as follows: 6 percent to the Texas Historical Commission (THC) and 94 percent to the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department (TPWD). SGST credited to the THC would be allocated to the General Revenue Fund.SGST credited to the TPWD would be allocated as follows: 74 percent to the State Parks Account No. 64; 15 percent to the Texas Recreation and Local Parks Account No. 467; 10 percent to the Large County and Municipality Recreation and Parks Account No. 5150; and 1 percent to the Parks and Wildlife Conservation and Capital Account No. 5004. The bill would take effect September 1, 2011. Fiscal Analysis This analysis assumes that all future deposits to the credit of the THC would remain in the General Revenue Fund, subject to appropriation levels. Accordingly, these amounts are not shown in the table above. Amounts in excess of the average of amounts appropriated in fiscal years 2010 and 2011 to TPWD, would be deposited to the credit of the agencys related General Revenue-Dedicated Accounts and thus represent a revenue loss to General Revenue, as reflected in the table above. Methodology The Comptroller of Public Accounts reports that SGST in the 2012-13 biennium is estimated to be $251.3 million, or $125,650,000 each fiscal year. This analysis uses this revenue assumption for 2012 and each fiscal year thereafter. Six percent of this amount, or $7,539,000 each fiscal year would be allocated to the THC The difference between the average amount appropriated in fiscal years 2010-11 is $308,080 in fiscal year 2012 and each year thereafter, but these amounts remaining in General Revenue are not reflected in the table above [$7,230,920 average -$7,539,000=($308,080)]. Ninety-four percent of this amount, or $118,111,000 each fiscal year would be allocated to the TPWD or more specifically transferred to four related General Revenue-Dedicated Accounts at TPWD and the difference between the average amount appropriated in fiscal years 2010-11 (a $74,481,136 average across all accounts - $118,111,000 = $43,629,856) is shown as a General Revenue loss in fiscal year 2012 and each year thereafter. A breakout of the overall allocation to each agency account would be as follows: 1) SGST Transfer to the State Parks Account No. 64: 74 percent or $87,402,140 each year; $57,904,136 average-$87,402,140 = $29,598,005 General Revenue loss; 2) SGST Transfer to the Texas Recreation and Parks Account No. 467: 15 percent or $17,716,650 each year; $7,710,000 average-$17,716,650=$10,006,650 General Revenue loss; 3) SGST Transfer to the Large County and Municipality Recreation and Parks Account No. 5150: 10 percent or $11,811,100 each year; $7,890,000 average -$11,811,100=$3,921,110 General Revenue loss; and, 4) SGST Transfer to the Texas Parks and Wildlife Conservation and Capital Account No. 5004: 1 percent or $1,181,110 each year; $1,077,000 average -$1,181,110=$104,110. Together, $29,598,005, $10,006,650, $3,921, 100 and $104, 110 total $43,629,865 as shown above. To the extent the Legislature appropriates less than is deposited to each TPWD account, unappropriated balances would accumulate in the affected General Revenue-Dedicated accounts and be available to certify the general appropriations act.
