LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST
I object to the following appropriations contained in Assembly
Bill 1497.
Item 0250-101-0932--For local assistance, Judicial Branch. I
revise this item by deleting a portion of Provision 15.
I am revising this item by deleting the last sentence of Provision
15, which would permit the Judicial Council to offset General Fund
reductions to the trial courts by redirecting additional funds from
within the Judicial Branch's budget. I believe this language is
unnecessary as the Budget already provides the appropriate level of
funding, given available resources, for each segment of the
Judiciary.
"15. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, during the
2012-13 fiscal year, the Judicial Council shall allocate $385,000,000
of reductions in funding contained in Schedule (1) as follows: (a)
no more than $235,000,000 shall be allocated to each trial court
based on each court's proportionate share of total statewide trial
court reserves, and (b) no more than $150,000,000 shall be allocated
based on each trial court's proportionate share of the 2011-12 fiscal
year Trial Court Trust Fund allocation. Upon approval of the
Director of Finance and no sooner than 30 days after notification in
writing to the committees of each house of the Legislature that
consider the State Budget, the Judicial Council may offset either of
these reductions through transfers from any other item within the
Judicial Branch's budget, with the exception of funding scheduled for
the Supreme Court, Courts of Appeal, and Habeas Corpus Resource
Center. "
Item 5180-111-0001--For local assistance, Department of Social
Services. I reduce this item from $4,443,230,000 to $4,438,530,000 by
reducing:
(2) 25.15-IHSS from $6,239,606,000 to $6,234,906,000.
I am reducing this item by $4,700,000 to eliminate an augmentation
to support administration of the In-Home Supportive Services (IHSS)
program. This would align funding with the level I included in the
May Revision. This reduction is necessary to provide for a prudent
General Fund reserve. With this reduction, $134,223,000 General Fund
still remains for IHSS administration.
Item 5180-141-0001--For local assistance, Department of Social
Services. I reduce this item from $717,265,000 to $694,265,000 by
reducing:
(1) 16.75-County Administration and Automation Projects from
$1,833,498,000 to $1,779,498,000.
(3) Amount payable from the Federal Trust Fund (Item
5180-141-0890) from
-$1,068,900,000 to -$1,037,900,000.
I am reducing this item by $54,000,000 ($23,000,000 General Fund)
on a one-time basis in the County Administration and Automation
Projects program for administration of the CalFresh program. This
reduction is necessary to provide for a prudent General Fund reserve.
With this reduction, total funding of $1,464,752,000 still remains
budgeted to support CalFresh administrative costs. This level of
funding for county administration is greater than what I proposed in
the May Revision.
Item 5180-141-0890--For local assistance, Department of Social
Services. I reduce this item from $1,068,900,000 to $1,037,900,000.
I am reducing this item by $31,000,000 to conform to the action I
have taken in Item 5180 141 0001.
Item 6110-001-0890--For support of Department of Education. I
reduce this item from $162,299,000 to $162,194,000 and by revising
Provision 35.
I am reducing this item by $105,000 federal Migrant Education
Funds to eliminate indirect cost funding associated with the Bureau
of State Audits audit of the Migrant Education Program. This amount
duplicates state operations funding already included in the
Department of Education's budget and is unnecessary. With this
reduction, $600,000 remains to fund the audit.
I am revising Provision 35 to conform to this action as follows:
"35. Of the funds appropriated in this item, up to
$705,000 $600,000 is provided in one-time federal Title I,
Part C, carryover funds for transfer to the State Audit Fund for the
purpose of the Bureau of State Audits to conduct an independent audit
of state and local implementation of the federally funded Migrant
Education Program. The audit report shall be submitted to the
appropriate fiscal and policy committees of each house of the
Legislature and to the State Department of Education (SDE) no later
than March 1, 2013.
(a) The audit report shall include all of the following:
(1) A detailed audit of expenditures, fiscal practices, and fiscal
oversight at the SDE and in a sample of local Migrant Education
Program regions to determine whether there is compliance with
applicable state and federal laws, regulations, and administrative
policies.
(2) A detailed audit of the State Parent Advisory Council (SPAC)
makeup and activities at the state level and in a sample of local
Migrant Education Program regions to determine whether there is
compliance with applicable state and federal laws, regulations, and
administrative policies, and to assess whether the state
appropriately supports and engages migrant parents.
(3) A detailed review of how effectively the state organizes and
implements migrant education services at both the state and local
levels, which includes alignment between program goals and program
activities, outcomes from state-level contracts, effectiveness of
data collection structures and internal operations, and the efficacy
of the existing regional service delivery structure.
(4) Recommendations for how the state may address audit findings
related to the topics described in paragraphs (1), (2), and (3).
(5) A review of the extent to which any relevant findings raised
in recent federal reviews (since 2006) of the state's Migrant
Education Program pertaining to these and other topics have been
addressed. If these findings have not been adequately addressed,
provide recommendations on how the state should address them to
ensure the delivery of services in the Migrant Education Program are
efficient and effective.
(b) The regions selected for the sample shall be sufficient in
number to reflect the diversity of local regions and program
structures."
Item 6110-140-0001--For local assistance, Department of Education
(Proposition 98). I reduce this item from $886,000 to $0 by reducing:
(2) 20.90.001.020-California School Information Services
Administration from $2,184,000 to $1,298,000.
I am reducing this item by $886,000 to reflect the decrease in
workload at the California School Information System (CSIS)
associated with the completion of the California Longitudinal Pupil
Achievement Data System (CALPADS) project. The Budget acknowledges
the continued workload associated with CSIS's support of the CALPADS
maintenance phase, and therefore, continues to provide $7,136,000 to
ensure that CSIS is successful in meeting this objective.
Item 6110-194-0001--For local assistance, Department of Education.
I reduce this item from $770,603,000 to $750,603,000 by reducing:
(1.5) 30.10.020-Child Care Services from $1,329,885,000 to
$1,309,885,000, and
(d) 30.10.020.007-Special Program, Child Development, Alternative
Payment Program from $194,031,000 to $174,031,000.
I am reducing $20,000,000 from voucher-based child care programs,
except for those serving current and former CalWORKs families. While
I would have preferred to restructure rates and reform the program to
achieve savings, this across the board reduction in child care slots
is necessary to help bring ongoing expenditures in line with
existing resources. With this reduction, a total of $1.3 billion in
non Proposition 98 General Fund and federal funds remain to support
child care programs administered by the Department of Education.
Item 6110-488--Reappropriation, Department of Education. I revise
this item by deleting Provision 8.
I am deleting Provision 8 which contains an augmentation of
$8,100,000 for the Advancement Via Individualized Determination
program because it creates additional cost pressures within
Proposition 98 and school districts are in the best position to
determine whether this program should be funded at the local level.
Item 6440-001-0001--For support of University of California. I
reduce this item from $2,053,750,000 to $2,053,749,000 by reducing:
(1) Support from $2,053,750,000 to $2,053,749,000,
and by deleting Provisions 5, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 14, 15, and 17.
I am deleting Provisions 5, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, and 12, because the
requirements contained in these provisions to expend funds on various
programs create unnecessary cost pressures within this item and are
unnecessarily restrictive. Specifically, these provisions earmark
funding levels for the following programs administered by the
University of California (University): the Charles R. Drew Medical
Program, the California State Summer School for Mathematics and
Science, the Science and Math Teacher Initiative, the Program in
Medical Education, nursing programs, Acquired Immune Deficiency
Syndrome research, and the California Subject Matter Projects.
Eliminating these earmarks will give the University greater
flexibility to manage the $750 million permanent reduction in state
funding enacted in fiscal year 2011-12.
I am deleting Provision 14 because the requirement contained in
this provision to expend funds on retired annuitant health and dental
benefits creates unnecessary cost pressures and is unnecessarily
restrictive.
I am deleting Provision 15 because the requirement contained in
this provision that the University achieve an enrollment target of
209,977 resident full-time equivalent students creates unnecessary
cost pressures on this item and is unnecessarily restrictive.
Finally, I am reducing this item by $1,000 and deleting Provision
17 which would restrict the University's ability to contract out for
services rather than using in-house personnel, under specified terms.
While I encourage the University to review the overall cost
effectiveness of its contracting out, this provision would
unnecessarily limit the University's ability to effectively manage
its operations.
Item 6610-001-0001--For support of California State University. I
delete Provisions 5, 6, 9, and 10.
I am deleting Provisions 5 and 6 because the requirements
contained in these provisions to expend funds on various programs
creates unnecessary cost pressures and are unnecessarily restrictive.
Specifically, these provisions earmark funding levels for the
Science and Math Teacher Initiative and nursing programs administered
by the California State University (CSU). Eliminating these earmarks
will give CSU greater flexibility to manage the $750 million
permanent reduction in state funding enacted in 2011-12.
I am deleting Provision 9 because the requirement contained in
this provision to expend funds on retired annuitant dental benefits
creates unnecessary cost pressures and is unnecessarily restrictive.
Finally, I am deleting Provision 10 because the requirement
contained in this provision that the CSU achieve an enrollment target
of 331,716 resident full-time equivalent students creates
unnecessary cost pressures and is unnecessarily restrictive.
Item 7980-101-0001--For local assistance, Student Aid Commission.
I reduce this item from $721,452,000 to $698,852,000 by reducing:
(1) 15-Financial Aid Grants Program from $1,638,628,000 to
$1,616,028,000,
and by revising Provisions 1 and 3.
I am reducing this item by $22,600,000 and amending subsections
which establish the maximum Cal Grant awards. The amounts of these
awards are statutorily required to be in the Budget. Specifically, I
am reducing the private institution award from $9,708 to $9,223, the
independent institution award from $9,708 to $9,223, the Cal Grant B
access award from $1,551 to $1,473, the Cal Grant C tuition and fee
award from $2,592 to $2,462, and the Cal Grant C book and supply
award from $576 to $547. Each of these represent a 5-percent
reduction. This action is necessary to align ongoing program
expenditures with existing resources. This action will not eliminate
eligibility for any Cal Grant student.
I am revising subsections (a), (b), (c), (d), and (e) of Provision
3 to conform to this action as follows:
"(a) New and renewal recipients attending private institutions
shall be $9,708 $9,223.
(b) New and renewal recipients attending independent institutions
shall be $9,708 $9,223.
(c) All recipients receiving Cal Grant B access awards shall be
$1,551 $1,473.
(d) All recipients receiving Cal Grant C tuition and fee awards
shall be $2,592 $2,462.
(e) All recipients receiving Cal Grant C book and supply awards
shall be $576 $547."
I am further revising subsections to eliminate costs resulting
from the Student Aid Commission's authority to issue new warrants for
the Assumption Program of Loans for Education and the State Nursing
Assumption Program of Loans for Education. The number of awards are
statutorily required to be in the Budget. The General Fund savings
that will begin in 2013-14 will help align ongoing program
expenditures with available resources into the future.
I am revising subsection (c) of Provision 1 to conform to this
action as follows:
"(c) The purchase of loan assumptions under Article 5 (commencing
with Section 69612) of Chapter 2 of Part 42 of Division 5 of Title 3
of the Education Code. The Student Aid Commission shall
issue 7,200 new warrants. "
I am revising subsection (f) of Provision 1 to conform to this
action as follows:
"(f) The purchase of loan assumptions under the State Nursing
Assumption Program of Loans for Education (SNAPLE) pursuant to
Article 1 (commencing with Section 70100) of Chapter 3 of Part 42 of
Division 5 of Title 3 of the Education Code. The Student Aid
Commission shall issue 100 new warrants. "
With the above deletions, revisions, and reductions, I hereby
approve Assembly Bill 1497.
EDMUND G. BROWN JR.

Provisions:
1. The appropriations made in this
item are exempt from Section 31.00.
2. None of the funds appropriated in
this item may be expended to

Funds appropriated in this item
may be used for capital
expenditures as well as payment of
debt service associated with the

support auxiliary enterprises or
intercollegiate athletics programs.

Initiative. The University of
California (UC) shall report to
the Legislature and the Governor
by February 1 of each year on its
progress toward increasing the
quality and supply of science and
mathematics teachers resulting
from implementation of the Science
and Math Teacher Initiative. This
report shall include the following
information: (a) annual number of
mathematics and science teachers
awarded credentials (by each UC
campus) beginning with the 2004-05
academic year (before the state
first provided funding for the
initiative), (b) an expenditure
plan on the use of the funds
appropriated in this item, (c) the
effectiveness of the initiative's
different components and
activities, including an
identification of best practices,
and (d) the job placement of
students who earn a mathematics or
science teaching credential,
including the location of the K-12
school of employment and whether
it is in an urban, rural, or
suburban setting.
9. Of the funds appropriated in this
item, $2,025,000 is to support 135
full-time equivalent students in
the Program in Medical Education
(PRIME) at the Irvine, Davis, San
Diego, San Francisco, and Los
Angeles campuses. The primary
purpose of this program is to
train physicians specifically to
serve in underrepresented
communities. The University of
California shall report to the
Legislature by March 15, 2013, on
(a) its progress in implementing
the PRIME program and (b) the use
of the total funds provided
for this program from both state
and nonstate resources.
10. (a) The amount in Schedule (1)
includes $1,720,000 to
continue increased
enrollments in nursing
programs beyond the levels
served in 2005-06 as
follows:
(1) $1,617,000 for full
cost of a minimum
of 122 full-time
equivalent students
in entry-level
clinical nursing
programs and entry-
level master's
degree nursing
programs.
(2) $103,000 for
supplemental
marginal cost
funding for 20
master's degree
level nursing
students.
(b) The University of
California shall report to
the Legislature and the
Governor by May 1, 2013, on
the total enrollment in the
2012-13 academic year in
the baccalaureate nursing
degree programs, the entry-
level clinical and master's
degree nursing programs,
and the master's of science
in nursing degree programs.
11. Of the funds appropriated in this
item, $8,753,000 is for research
related to Acquired Immune
Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS).
12. Of the funds appropriated in this
item, $5,000,000, is for the
California Subject Matter Projects.
13. If the Director of Finance reduces
appropriations pursuant to
subdivision (a) of Section 3.62,
the University of California shall
not make budget reductions to the
Student Academic Preparation and
Education Programs (SAPEP), that
is greater, proportionally, than
the reduction in overall General
Fund support for the university.
This provision does not apply to
the Preuss School. The university
shall submit a report on funding
levels of SAPEP to the fiscal
committees of each house of the
Legislature no later than April 1,
2013.
14. Of the funds appropriated in
this item, $5,200,000 is the
annual incremental adjustment for
retiree health and dental benefit
cost increases. In providing
funding in 2012-13, it is the
intent of the Legislature to
provide similar adjustments on an
ongoing annual basis in future
years.
15. The Legislature expects the
University of California to enroll
a total of 209,977 state-supported
full-time equivalent students
during the 2012-13 academic year.
This enrollment target does not
include nonresident students and
students enrolled in nonstate
supported summer programs. The
University of California shall
report to the Legislature by May
1, 2013, on whether it has met the
2012-13 academic year enrollment
goal.
16. Of the funds appropriated in
Schedule (1), $51,500,000 is
intended to address a portion of
the University of California's
(UC) employer pension contribution
costs for the University of
California Retirement Plan (UCRP).
This amount is only intended to
help address UC's employer pension
cost increases that are
attributable to state General Fund-
and tuition-funded employees. The
use of this funding for this
purpose in 2012-13 does not
constitute an obligation on behalf
of the state to provide funding
after the 2012-13 fiscal year for
any UCRP costs. The amount of
state funding for UCRP provided by
the state in future budget years,
if any, shall be determined
annually by the Legislature.
17. (a) Notwithstanding any other
law, the University of
California shall not expend
moneys appropriated from
the General Fund in the
annual Budget Act to
contract out for services
currently or customarily
performed by nonacademic
employees to achieve cost
savings in instances other
than the following:
(1) If all the
following
conditions are met:
(A) The University of
California (UC) or
the contracting
agency clearly
demonstrates that
the proposed
contract will
result in actual
overall cost
savings to the UC,
provided that:
(i) In comparing costs,
there shall be
included the UC's
additional cost of
providing the same
service as proposed
by the contractor.
These additional
costs shall include
the salaries and
benefits of
additional staff
that would be
needed and the cost
of additional
space, equipment,
and materials
needed to perform
the function.
(ii) In comparing costs,
there shall not be
included the UC's
indirect overhead
costs unless these
costs can be
attributed solely
to the function in
question and would
not exist if that
function was not
performed by the
UC. Indirect
overhead costs
shall mean the pro
rata share of
existing
administrative
salaries and
benefits, rent,
equipment costs,
utilities, and
materials.
(iii) In comparing costs,
there shall be
included in the
cost of a
contractor
providing a service
any UC costs that
would be directly
associated with the
contracted
function. These
continuing UC costs
shall include, but
not be limited to,
those for
inspection,
supervision, and
monitoring.
(B) Proposals to
contract out work
shall not be
approved solely on
the basis that
savings will result
from lower
contractor pay
rates or benefits.
Proposals to
contract out work
shall be eligible
for approval if the
contractor's wages
are at the
industry's level
and do not undercut
UC pay rates.
(C) The contract does
not cause the
displacement of UC
employees. The term
""displacement''
includes layoff,
demotion,
involuntary
transfer to a new
classification,
involuntary
transfer to a new
location requiring
a change of
residence, and time-
base reductions.
Displacement does
not include changes
in shifts or days
off, nor does it
include
reassignment to
other positions
within the same
classification and
general location or
employment with the
contractor, so long
as wages and
benefits are
comparable to those
paid by the UC.
(D) The savings shall
be large enough to
ensure that they
will not be
eliminated by
private sector and
UC cost
fluctuations that
could normally be
expected during the
contracting period.
(E) The amount of
savings clearly
justify the size
and duration of the
contracting
agreement.
(F) The contract is
awarded through a
publicized,
competitive bidding
process.
(G) The contract
includes specific
provisions
pertaining to the
qualifications of
the staff that will
perform the work
under the contract,
as well as
assurance that the
contractor's hiring
practices meet
applicable
nondiscrimination
standards.
(H) The potential for
future economic
risk to the UC from
potential
contractor rate
increases is
minimal.
(I) The contract is
with a firm. A
""firm'' means a
corporation,
limited liability
company,
partnership,
nonprofit
organization, or
sole proprietorship.
(J) The potential
economic advantage
of contracting is
not outweighed by
the public's
interest in having
a particular
function performed
directly by the UC.
(2) If any of the
following
conditions are met:
(A) The services
contracted are not
available within
the UC, cannot be
performed
satisfactorily by
UC employees, or
are of such a
highly specialized
or technical nature
that the necessary
expert knowledge,
experience, and
ability are not
available through
the UC.
(B) The services are
incidental to a
contract for
purchase or lease
of real or personal
property. Contracts
under this
criterion, known as
""service
agreements,'' shall
included, but not
be limited to,
agreements to
service or maintain
office equipment or
computers that are
leased or rented.
(C) The policy,
administrative, or
legal goals and
purposes of the UC
cannot be
accomplished
through the
utilization of
persons selected
pursuant to the
regular or ordinary
hiring process.
Contracts are
permissible under
this criterion to
protect against a
conflict of
interest or to
ensure independent
and unbiased
findings in cases
where there is a
clear need for a
different, outside
perspective. These
contracts shall
include, but not be
limited to,
obtaining expert
witnesses in
litigation.
(D) The nature of the
work is such that
the criteria for
emergency
appointments apply.
""Emergency
appointment'' means
an appointment made
for a period not to
exceed 60 working
days either during
an actual emergency
to prevent the
stoppage of public
business or because
of the limited
duration of the
work. The method of
selection and the
qualification
standards for an
emergency employee
shall be determined
by the UC. The
frequency of
appointment, length
of appointment, and
the circumstances
appropriate shall
be restricted so as
to prevent the use
of emergency
appointments to
circumvent the
regular or ordinary
hiring process.
(E) The contractor will
provide equipment,
materials,
facilities, or
support services
that could not
feasibly be
provided by the UC
in the location
where the services
are to be performed.
(F) The services are of
such an urgent,
temporary, or
occasional nature
that the delay
incumbent in their
implementation
under the UC's
regular or ordinary
hiring process
would frustrate
their very purpose.
(b) This section shall apply to
personal service contracts
entered into after January
1, 2013. This section shall
not apply to the renewal of
a personal services
contract subsequent to
January 1, 2013, if the
contract was entered into
before January 1, 2013,
irrespective of whether the
contract is renewed or
rebid with the existing
contractor or with a new
contractor unless it has
been significantly expanded.
(c) The University of
California shall annually
post both of the following
on its Internet Web site:
(1) The number of, and
contract amounts
for, contracts
entered into during
the prior fiscal
year, for services
currently or
customarily
performed by
nonacademic
employees, to
achieve cost
savings.
(2) If compliance with
(a) was required
for the prior
fiscal year,
findings regarding
how the University
of California
complied with that
provision.

subdivision (a) of Section 3.62,
the California State University
(CSU) shall not make budget
reductions to any individual
student academic preparation and
outreach program that is greater,
proportionally, than the reduction
in overall General Fund support
for the university. The university
shall submit a report on the
reduction made to these programs
to the fiscal committees of each
house of the Legislature no later
than April 1, 2013.
9. Of the funds appropriated in this
item, $1,100,000 is the annual
incremental adjustment for retiree
dental benefit cost increases. In
providing this funding in 2012-13,
it is the intent of the
Legislature to provide similar
adjustments on an ongoing annual
basis in future years.
10. The Legislature expects the
California State University to
enroll a total of 331,716 state-

include $31,409,000 to encourage
district-level accountability
efforts pursuant to Section
84754.5 of the Education Code.
It is intended that the Office
of the Chancellor of the
California Community Colleges
submit an annual report on
district-specific accountability
measures by March 31 of each
year. This report shall reflect
the outcomes from the most
recently completed fiscal year
for which data is available
pursuant to Section 84754.5 of
the Education Code.
13. Notwithstanding any other
provision of law, apportionment
funding for community college
districts shall be based on the
greater of the current year or
prior year level of full-time
equivalent students (FTES),
consistent with K-12 declining
enrollment practices pursuant to
Section 42238.5 of the Education
Code. Decreases in FTES shall
result in a revenue reduction at
the district's average level of
apportionment funding per FTES
and shall be made in the year
following the initial year of
decrease in FTES.
14. Of the funds appropriated in
Schedule (1), Apportionments:
(a) Up to $100,000 is for
a maintenance allowance,
pursuant to Section 54200
of Title 5 of the
California Code of
Regulations.
(b) Up to $500,000 is to
reimburse colleges for the

of Title 5 of the
California Code of
Regulations.
15. Notwithstanding any other
provision of law, the Chancellor
of the California Community
Colleges shall not reduce
district workload obligations
for a lack of a funded cost-of-
living adjustment.

Chancellor of the
California Community
Colleges for the purpose
of funding community
college-related and
supplemental instruction
pursuant to Section 3074
of the Labor Code, as
provided in Section 8152
of the Education Code. No
community college district
shall use funds available
under this provision to
offer any new
apprenticeship training
program or the expansion
of any existing program
unless the new program or
expansion has been
approved by the chancellor.
(b) Notwithstanding Section
8152 of the Education
Code, each 60-minute hour
of teaching time
devoted to each indentured
apprentice enrolled in and
attending classes of
related and supplemental
instruction as provided
under Section 3074 of the
Labor Code shall be

passing time and breaks.
17. Funds appropriated in Schedule
(4), Growth for Apportionments,
shall be available first to any

accredited colleges or
California Postsecondary
Education Commission-approved
educational centers. It is the
intent of the Legislature that

Department of Finance and
the Legislative Analyst, on the
number of new centers and
colleges added for the current

provided for basic foundation
allocations to each college and
center for the current fiscal
year.

provision of law, funds
appropriated in Schedule (4),
Growth for Apportionments, shall
only be allocated for growth in
full-time equivalent students
(FTES), on a district-by-
district basis, as determined by
the Chancellor of the California
Community Colleges. The
chancellor shall not include any
FTES from concurrent enrollment
in physical education, dance,
recreation, study skills, and
personal development courses and
other courses in conflict with
existing law for the purpose of
calculating a district's
three-year overcap adjustment.
The Board of Governors of the
California Community Colleges
shall implement the criteria
required by subdivision (a) of
Provision 5 of Item 6870-101-
0001 of the Budget Act of 2003
(Ch. 157, Stats. 2003) for the
allocation of funds appropriated
in Schedules (1) and (3) of this
item, so as to ensure that
courses related to student needs
for transfer, basic skills, and
vocational/workforce training
are accorded the highest
priority and are provided to the
maximum extent possible within
budgeted funds.
19. The funds appropriated in
Schedule (5), Student Success
for Basic Skills Students, shall
be allocated as follows:
(a) $969,000 for faculty and
staff development to
improve curriculum,
instruction, student
services, and program
practices in the areas of
basic skills and English
as a Second Language (ESL)
programs. The Office of
the Chancellor of the
California Community
Colleges shall select a
district, utilizing a
competitive process, to
carry out these faculty
and staff development
activities. All colleges
receiving funds pursuant
to subdivision (b) shall
be provided with the
opportunity to participate
in the faculty and staff
development programs
specified in this
subdivision. The
chancellor shall report on
the use of these funds by
the selected district to
the Legislative Analyst
and the Department of
Finance not later than
September 1 of each year.
(b) $19,068,000 for allocation
by the chancellor to
community college
districts for improving
outcomes of students who
enter college needing at
least one course in ESL or
basic skills, with
particular emphasis on
students transitioning
from high school.
(c) Funding specified in
subdivisions (a) and (b)
shall be distributed to
eligible applicants
pursuant to Chapter 489 of
the Statutes of 2007.
(d) The Office of the
Chancellor of the
California Community
Colleges shall work
jointly with the
Department of Finance and
the Legislative Analyst to
evaluate and refine, as
necessary, the annual
accountability measures
for this program. It is
the intent of the
Legislature that annual
performance accountability
measures for this program
utilize, to the extent
possible, data available
as part of the
accountability system
developed pursuant to
Section 84754.5 of the
Education Code. By
September 1, 2010, the
chancellor shall submit a
report to the Governor and
the Legislature on basic
skills accountability
using system- and college-
level data and an annual
report each year
thereafter by September 1.
20. (a) Of the funds appropriated
in Schedule (6) for
Student Financial Aid
Administration, not less
than $16,920,000 is
available to provide $0.91
per unit reimbursement to
community college
districts for the
provision of board of
governors (BOG) fee waiver
awards pursuant to
paragraph (2) of
subdivision (m) of Section
76300 of the Education
Code.
(b) Of the funds appropriated
in Schedule (6), not less
than $17,105,000 is
available to provide
reimbursement of 2 percent
of total waiver value to
community college
districts for the
provision of BOG fee
waiver awards pursuant to
paragraph (2) of
subdivision (m) of Section
76300 of the Education
Code.
(c) Funding provided to
community college
districts in subdivisions
(a) and (b) is provided to
directly offset any
mandated costs claimed by
community college
districts pursuant to
Commission on State
Mandates Test Claims 99-TC-
13 (Enrollment Fee
Collection) and 00-TC-15
(Enrollment Fee Waivers).
(d) (1) Of the amount
appropriated in
Schedule (6),
$2,800,000 shall be
for a contract with
a community college
district to conduct
a statewide media
campaign to promote
the general message
to prospective
students as follows:
(A) the California
Community Colleges
(CCC) remain
affordable, (B)
financial aid tax
credits are
available to cover
enrollment fees and
help with books and
other costs, and (C)
the active
encouragement of
contact between
pupils and local CCC
financial aid
offices. Any funds
used from this
source to produce
radio, television,
or mail campaigns
must emphasize the
availability of
financial aid, the
easiest and most
reliable method of
accessing the aid, a
contact telephone
number, an Internet
Web site address,
where applicable,
and the physical
location of a
financial aid
office. Any mail
campaign must give
priority to existing
pupils, recent high
school graduates,
and 12th
graders. The
outreach and
information campaign
should target its
efforts in high
schools, welfare
offices,
unemployment
offices, churches,
community centers,
and any other
location that will
most effectively
reach low-income and
disadvantaged
students who must
overcome barriers in
accessing
postsecondary
education. The
community college
district awarded the
contract shall
consult with the
Chancellor of the
California Community
Colleges and the
Student Aid
Commission prior to
performing any
activities to ensure
appropriate
coordination with
any other state
efforts in this area
and ensure
compliance with this
provision.
(2) Of the amount
appropriated in
Schedule (6), not
more than
$34,200,000 shall be
for direct contact
with potential and
current financial
aid applicants. Each
CCC campus shall
receive a minimum
allocation of
$50,000. The
remainder of the
funding shall be
allocated to
campuses based upon
a formula reflecting
full-time equivalent
students (FTES)
weighted by a
measure of low-
income populations s
demonstrated by BOG
fee waiver program
participation within
a district. It is
the intent of the
Legislature, to the
extent that funds
are provided in this
item, that all
campuses provide
additional staff
resources to
increase both
financial aid
participation and
student access to
low-income and
disadvantaged
students who must
overcome barriers in
accessing
postsecondary
education. Funds may
be used for
screening current
students for
possible financial
aid eligibility and
offering personal
assistance to these
students in
accessing financial
aid, providing
individual help in
multiple languages
for families and
students in filling
out the necessary
paperwork to apply
for financial aid,
and increasing
financial aid staff
to process
additional financial
aid forms.
(3) Funding provided to
community college
districts in
paragraph (2) is
provided to offset
any mandated costs
claimed by community
college districts
pursuant to the
Commission on State
Mandates Test Claims
02-TC-28 (Cal
Grants) and 02-TC-21
(Tuition Fee
Waivers).
(4) Funds allocated to a
community college
district for
financial aid
personnel, outreach
determination of
financial need, and
delivery of student
financial aid
services shall
supplement, and
shall not supplant,
the level of funds
allocated for the
administration of
student financial
aid programs during
the 2001-02 or 2006-
07 fiscal year,
whichever is greater.
(5) It is the intent of
the Legislature that
the Office of the
Chancellor of the
California Community
Colleges provide the
Legislature with a
report not later
than April 1 of each
year on the use of
the funds allocated
pursuant to
paragraphs (1) and
(2), including the
distribution of the
funds, specific uses
of the funds,
strategies employed
to reach low-income
and disadvantaged
students potentially
eligible for
financial aid, and
the extent to which
districts were
successful in
increasing the
number of students
accessing financial
aid, particularly
the maximum Pell
Grant award.
(6) It is the intent of
the Legislature that
the chancellor
report by May 15 of
each year, in the
manner and using the
factors set forth in
paragraph (5) of
subdivision (c) of
Provision 11 of Item
6870-101-0001 of the
Budget Act of 2007
(Chs. 171 and 172,
Stats. 2007), on the
impact of outreach
efforts on student
headcount and FTES
enrollment for the
2009-10 and 2010-11
academic years.
(e) Notwithstanding
subdivision (m) of Section
76300 of the Education
Code or any other
provision of law, the
amount of funds
appropriated for the
purpose of administering
fee waivers for the 2012-
13 fiscal year shall be
determined in this act.
21. (a) The funds appropriated in
Schedule (7) for the
Disabled Students Program
are for assisting
districts in funding the
excess direct
instructional cost of
providing special support
services or instruction,
or both, to disabled
students enrolled at
community colleges, and
for state hospital
programs, as mandated by
federal law.
(b) Of the amount appropriated
in Schedule (7), no less
than $3,166,000 shall be
used to address
deficiencies identified by
the federal Office for
Civil Rights (OCR), as
determined by the Office
of the Chancellor of the
California Community
Colleges.
(c) Of the amount
appropriated in Schedule
(7), at least $757,000
shall be used for support
of the High Tech Centers
for activities including,
but not limited to,
training of district
employees, staff, and
students in the use of
specialized computer
equipment for the
disabled. All High Tech
Centers shall meet
standards developed by the
Office of the Chancellor.
Colleges that receive
these augmentations shall
not supplant existing
resources provided to the
centers.
(d) Notwithstanding any other
provision of law, of the
funds appropriated in
Schedule (7), $1,000,000
shall be for state
hospital adult education
programs at the hospitals
served by the Coast and
Kern Community College
Districts since the 1986-
87 fiscal year. If adult
education services at any
of the two hospitals are
not supported by the
community colleges in any
portion of the 2012-13
fiscal year, remaining
funds shall, upon order of
the Department of Finance,
after 30 days' notice to
the Chairperson of the
Joint Legislative Budget
Committee, be transferred
to the State Department of
Developmental Services
(DDS). For any transfer of
funds to DDS during the
2012-13 fiscal year, the
Proposition 98 base
funding levels for
community colleges and DDS
shall be adjusted
accordingly.
(e) Of the funds appropriated
in Schedule (7) for the
Disabled Student Services,
no less than $7,704,000
shall be allocated to
support high-cost sign
language interpreter
services and real-time
captioning equipment or
other communication
accommodations for hearing-
impaired students based on
a 4-to-1 state-to-local
district match.
22. The funds appropriated in
Schedule (8), Special Services
for CalWORKs Recipients, are for
the purpose of assisting welfare
recipient students and those in
transition off of welfare to
achieve long-term self-
sufficiency through coordinated
student services offered at
community colleges, including
workstudy, other educational
related work experience, job
placement services, child care
services, and coordination with
county welfare offices to
determine eligibility and
availability of services. All
services funded in Schedule (8)
shall be for current CalWORKs
recipients or prior CalWORKs
recipients who are in transition
off of cash assistance for no
more than two years. Current
cash-assistance recipients may
utilize these services until
their initial educational
objectives are met. Former
recipients in transition off of
cash assistance may utilize
these services for a period of
up to two years after leaving
cash assistance subject to
the conditions of this
provision. These funds shall be
used to supplement and not
supplant existing funds and
services provided for CalWORKs
recipients attending community
colleges. The Chancellor of the
California Community Colleges
shall develop an equitable
method for allocating funds to
all districts and colleges based
on the relative numbers of
CalWORKs recipients in
attendance and shall allocate
funds for the following purposes:
(a) Job placement.
(b) Coordination with county
welfare offices and other
local agencies, including
local workforce investment
boards.
(c) Curriculum development and
redesign.
(d) Child care and workstudy.
(e) Instruction.
(f) Postemployment skills
training and related
skills.
(g) Campus-based case
management, limited to on-
campus assistance and
services not provided by
county case workers that
do not supplant other
counseling and academic
support services funded
through existing
California Community
Colleges categorical
programs.
Of the amount appropriated in
Schedule (8), $9,188,000 is for
child care and does not require
a district match. For the
remaining funds, districts
shall, as a condition of receipt
of these funds, provide a $1
match for every $1 provided by
the state.
Funds utilized for subsidized
child care shall be for children
of CalWORKs recipients through
campus-based centers or parental
choice vouchers at rates and
with rules consistent with those
applied to related programs
operated by the State Department
of Education in the 2012-13
fiscal year, including
eligibility, reimbursement
rates, and parental contribution
schedules. Subsidized campus
child care for CalWORKs
recipients may be provided
during the period they are
engaged in qualifying state and
federal work activities through
attainment of their initial
education and training plan and
for up to three months
thereafter or until the end of
the academic year, whichever
period of time is greater.
Funds utilized for workstudy
shall be used solely for
payments to employers that
currently participate in campus-
based workstudy programs or are
providing work experiences that
are directly related to and in
furtherance of student
educational programs and work
participation requirements,
provided that those payments may
not exceed 75 percent of the
wage for the workstudy
positions, and the employers
shall pay at least 25 percent of
the wage for the workstudy
positions. These funds may be
expended only if the total hours
of education, employment, and
workstudy for the student are
sufficient to meet both state
and federal minimum requirements
for qualifying work-related
activities.
Funds may be used to provide
credit or noncredit classes for
CalWORKs students if a district
has committed all of its funded
full-time equivalent students
(FTES) and is unable to offer
the additional instructional
services to meet the demand for
CalWORKs students. This
determination shall be based on
fall enrollment information.
Districts shall submit
applications to the Office of
the Chancellor by December 1 of
each year. If the chancellor
approves the use of funds for
direct instructional workload,
the Office of the Chancellor
shall submit a report to the
Department of Finance and the
Joint Legislative Budget
Committee by February 15 of each
year that (a) identifies the
enrollment of new CalWORKs
students, (b) states whether and
why additional classes were
needed to accommodate the needs
of CalWORKs students, and (c)
sets forth an expenditure plan
for the balance of funds.
As a condition of receipt of the
funds appropriated in Schedule
(8), by the fourth week
following the end of the
semester or quarter term
commencing in January 2013,
participating community
districts and colleges shall
submit to the Office of the
Chancellor a report, in the
format specified by the
chancellor in consultation with
the State Department of
Social Services, that includes,
but is not limited to, the
funded components, the number of
hours of child care provided,
the average monthly enrollment
of CalWORKs dependents served in
child care, the number of
workstudy hours provided, the
hourly salaries and type of
jobs, the number of students
being case managed, the short-
term programs available, the
student participation rates, and
other outcome data. It is
intended that, to the extent
practicable, reporting from
colleges utilize data gathered
for federal reporting
requirements at the state and
local level. Further, it is
intended that the Office of the
Chancellor compile the
information for annual reports
to the Legislature, the
Governor, the Legislative
Analyst, the Department of
Finance, and the State
Department of Social Services by
February 15 of each year.
First priority for expenditures
of any funds appropriated in
Schedule (8) shall be in support
of current CalWORKs recipients.
However, if caseloads are
insufficient to fully utilize
all of the funding in this
schedule in a cost-beneficial
way, it is intended that up to
$5,000,000 of the funds subject
to local matching requirements
may be allocated for providing
postemployment services to
former CalWORKs recipients who
have been off of cash assistance
for no longer than two years to
assist them in upgrading skills,
job retention, and advancement.
Allowable services include
direct instruction that cannot
be funded under available growth
funding, child care to support
attendance in these classes
consistent with this provision,
job development and placement
services, and career counseling
and assessment activities that
cannot be funded through other
programs. Child care services
may only be provided for periods
commensurate with a student's
need for postemployment training
within the two-year
transitional period.
Prior to allocation of funds for
postemployment services, the
chancellor shall first secure
the approval of the Department
of Finance for the allocations,
complete a cumulative report on
the outcomes, activities, and
cost-effectiveness of the
program no later than February
15 of each year in compliance
with the Budget Acts of 1998
(Ch. 324, Stats. 1998) and 1999
(Ch. 50, Stats. 1999) and this
act, and shall provide the
rationale and justification for
the proposed allocation of
postemployment services to
districts for transitional
students.
If a district is unable to fully
expend its share of child care
funds, it may request that
the Office of the Chancellor
approve a reallocation to other
CalWORKs purposes authorized by
this provision, subject to all
pertinent limitations and
district match required for
these purposes under this
provision.
Of the funds appropriated in
Schedule (8) for the Special
Services for CalWORKs Recipients
Program, no less than $4,900,000
is to provide direct workstudy
wage reimbursement for students
served under this program, and
$613,000 is available for campus
job development and placement
services.
23. Funds appropriated in Schedule
(8) for the Special Services for
CalWORKs Recipients Program have
been budgeted to meet the
state's Temporary Assistance for
Needy Families maintenance-
of-effort requirement pursuant
to the federal Personal
Responsibility and Work
Opportunity Reconciliation Act
of 1996 (P.L. 104-193) and may
not be expended in any way that
would cause their
disqualification as a federally
allowable maintenance-of-effort
expenditure.
24. (a) Funds provided in Schedule
(9) for the Foster Care
Education Program shall be
allocated to provide
foster and
relative/kinship care
education and training.
Districts shall ensure
that education and
training required by
Sections 1529.1 and 1529.2
of the Health and Safety
Code and Section 16003 of
the Welfare and
Institutions Code receive
priority. Districts may
use any remaining funds
for additional parenting
skills training.
(b) Funds provided in Schedule
(9) shall be used for
foster parent and
relative/kinship care
provider education
training services
consistent with the
following criteria:
(1) The Chancellor of
the California
Community Colleges
shall use these
funds exclusively
for foster parent
and relative/kinship
care provider
education and
training, as
specified by the
chancellor in
consultation with an
advisory committee
that includes foster
parents,
representatives of
statewide foster
parent
organizations,
parent and
relative/kinship
care providers, and
representatives from
the State Department
of Social Services.
(2) Acceptance of funds
under this program
shall constitute
agreement by the
district to comply
with such reporting
requirements,
guidelines, and
other conditions for
receipt of funding
as the chancellor
may establish.
(3) Each college plan
for foster and
relative/kinship
care education
programs shall
include the
provision of
training to
facilitate the
development of
foster family homes,
small family homes,
and relative/kinship
homes to care for no
more than six
children who have
special mental,
emotional,
developmental, or
physical needs.
(4) The State Department
of Social Services
shall facilitate the
participation of
county welfare
departments in the
foster and
relative/kinship
care education
program.
25. (a) Funds appropriated in
Schedule (10) for the
Matriculation Program are
for the purpose of student
matriculation pursuant to
Article 1 (commencing with
Section 78210) of Chapter
2 of Part 48 of Division 7
of Title 3 of the
Education Code.
(b) Of the amount appropriated
in Schedule (10),
$9,381,000 shall be
allocated to community
college districts on a one-
to-one matching funds
basis to provide
matriculation services,
including, but not limited
to, orientation,
assessment, and
counseling, for students
enrolled in designated
noncredit classes and
programs who may benefit
most, as determined by the
Chancellor of the
California Community
Colleges pursuant to
Sections 78216 and 78218
of the Education Code.
26. The funds in Schedule (14) for
the Part-time Faculty
Compensation Program shall be
allocated solely to increase
compensation for part-time
faculty from the amounts
previously authorized. Funds
shall be distributed to
districts based on the total
actual full-time equivalent
students served in the previous
fiscal year and include a small
district factor as determined by
the Chancellor of the California
Community Colleges. These funds
are to be used to assist
districts in making part-time
faculty salaries more
comparable to full-time salaries
for similar work, as determined
through each district's local
collective bargaining process.
These funds shall not supplant
the amount of resources each
district used to compensate part-
time faculty or be used to
exceed parity of each part-time
faculty employed by each
district with regular full-time
faculty at the same district, as
certified by the chancellor. If
a district achieves parity, its
allocation may be used for any
other educational purpose.
27. (a) $14,151,000 of the funds
provided in Schedule (16)
for the Telecommunications
and Technology Services
Program shall be for the
purpose of supporting
technical and application
innovations and for

and economy of scale
of the technology
investments of the
community college
system towards
improving learning
outcomes.
In addition, a portion of
the funds provided in this
subdivision shall be
available for allocations
to districts. It is the
intent of the Legislature
that these funds be used
by colleges to maintain
the technology
capabilities specified in
subdivision (a) of
Provision 21 of Item 6870-
101-0001 of the Budget Act
of 2003 (Ch. 157, Stats.
2003). These funds shall
not supplant existing
funds used for those
purposes, and colleges
shall match maintenance
and ongoing costs with
other funds as provided by
subdivision (a) of
Provision 21 of Item 6870-
101-0001 of the Budget Act
of 2003 (Ch. 157, Stats.
2003).
(b) The Office of the
Chancellor of the
California Community
Colleges shall develop the
reporting criteria for all
programs funded by this
item and shall submit that
for review along with an
annual progress report on
program implementation to
the Legislative Analyst
and the Department of
Finance no later than
December 1 of each year.
Reporting shall include
summaries of allocations
and expenditures by
program and by district,
where applicable.
(c) Of the funds provided in
Schedule (16), $1,139,000
is for ongoing support and
expansion of the

Department of Finance, and
the appropriate budget
subcommittees of the
budget committees of each
house of the Legislature.
It is the intent of the
Legislature that all
reporting requirements
contained in this
subdivision shall be
completed using funds

28. Of the funds provided in
Schedule (17) for the Economic
and Workforce Development
Program:
(a) $11,187,000 is allocated
for regional business
resources assistance and
innovation network

Chancellor of the
California Community
Colleges, for the
continued operation of
Mexican International
Trade Centers.
(b) $3,833,000 is allocated
for industry-driven
regional education and
training collaboratives.
These allocations shall be
made on a competitive
basis and the amounts

any predetermined limit,
but rather shall be funded
on their individual merits.
(c) $1,769,000 is allocated
for statewide network
leadership, organizational
development, coordination,
information and support
services, or other program
purposes.
(d) $2,220,000 is available

the Education Code.
(e) $3,920,000 is allocated
for the establishment of a
Responsive Incumbent
Worker Training Fund,
which will serve to expand
the delivery of
performance improvement
training to employers and
incumbent workers in high-
growth industries. Funds
shall also be used to
develop programs that
integrate basic skills and
career technical education
curriculum in ways that
provide students with
seamless educational
coursework that
transitions students into
high-tech and high-demand
job sectors.
(f) The following
provisions apply to the
expenditure of funds
within subdivisions (a)
and (b): Funds allocated
for centers and regional
collaboratives shall seek
to maximize the use of
state funds for
subdivisions (g) to (j),
inclusive, of Section
88531 of the Education
Code. Funds allocated to
districts for purposes of
subdivisions (g) and (i)
of Section 88531 of the
Education Code for
performance-based training
and student internships
shall be matched by a
minimum of $1 of private
business and industry
funding for each $1 of
state funds. Funds
allocated for purposes of
subdivision (h) of Section
88531 of the Education
Code for credit and
noncredit instruction may
be transferred to Schedule
(1) or (3) to facilitate
distribution at the
chancellor's discretion.
Any funds that become
available from network
centers due to savings,
discontinuance, or
reduction of amounts shall
first be made available
for additional allocations
in subdivision (b) to
increase the level of
subsidized training
otherwise available.
(g) Funds allocated by the
Board of Governors of the
California Community
Colleges under this
provision may not be used
by community college
districts to supplant
existing courses contract
education offerings. The
chancellor shall ensure
that funds are spent only
for expanded services and
shall implement
accountability reporting
for districts receiving
these funds to ensure that
training, credit, and
noncredit programs remain
relevant to business
needs. Programs that do
not demonstrate continued
relevance and support by
business shall not be
eligible for continued
funding. The board of
governors shall consider
the level of involvement
and financial commitments
of business and industry
as primary factors in
making awards. The
chancellor shall
incorporate project
requirements into the
guidelines for audits of
economic development
projects.
(h) Primary objectives of the
Economic and Workforce
Development Program are to
maximize instruction, to
prepare students for entry-
level jobs, to increase
skills of the current
workforce, and to
stimulate the growth of
businesses through
training so that more jobs
are created. As part of
the annual report on the
performance of the
Economic and Workforce
Development Program, the
chancellor shall provide
disaggregated data
detailing the funding
provided to each economic
development regional
center and each industry-
driven regional education
and training
collaborative, and to the
extent practicable, the
total number of hours of
contract education
services, performance
improvement training,
credit and noncredit

to require legislative
approval prior to their
implementation, but which may
not have been approved in

the Director of Finance shall
not allocate any funds related

pursuant to Provision 2, and
the expenditure of funds for

above appropriation shall
revert to the General Fund.
6. By inclusion of this
provision, for purposes of
Section 3517.63 of the

provisions that require the
expenditure of funds of the
addenda dated April 5, 2012,
and April 6, 2012, with State

Provisions:
1. The amount appropriated in

employer and employee
representatives.
2. The funds appropriated in this

bureaus, commissions, and
other state agencies, in
augmentation of their
respective appropriations or
allocations, in accordance
with approved memoranda of
understanding or, for
employees excluded from

costs for approved memoranda
of understanding or, for
employees excluded from

employee compensation costs,
including, but not limited to,
base salary increases, pay
increases to bring one group
of employees into a pay equity
position with another group of
public employees, and
recruitment and retention
differentials, be budgeted and

Committee to require
legislative approval prior to

the event that the Legislature
does not approve separate
legislation to authorize
implementation of any of the
pending agreements, the
Director of Finance shall not
allocate any funds related to
those pending agreements
pursuant to Provision 2, and
the expenditure of funds for

not be deemed to have been
approved by the Legislature.

other state agencies, in
augmentation of their
respective appropriations or

accordance with salary and
benefit schedules established
by the Department of Human
Resources.
3. Notwithstanding any other
provision of law, upon
approval of the Director of
Finance, expenditure authority
may be transferred between
Item 9800-001-0494 and this

to require legislative
approval prior to their

any of the pending agreements,
the Director of Finance shall
not allocate any funds related
to those pending agreements
pursuant to Provision 2, and
the expenditure of funds for

2.00 made pursuant to paragraph (1) of subdivision (a) could
eliminate General Fund support for law enforcement activities of the
Attorney General.

pursuant to paragraph (2) of subdivision (a) could diminish the
effectiveness of emergency air response programs, result in the
closure of fire stations, and substantially decrease firefighting

Program, a program that encourages the preservation, conservation,

which could result in fewer wardens on duty in the state.

Item 3600-001-0516 of, Section 2.00 made pursuant to paragraphs (4)

Section 2.00 made pursuant to paragraphs (7) and (8) of subdivision

2.00 made pursuant to paragraph (9) of subdivision (a) could
decrease channel and levee maintenance and floodplain mapping.

cuts on city police departments resulting from current economic
conditions.
(c) The Director of Finance shall apply the reductions specified
in subdivision (a) only to the extent that the funds appropriated in
each affected item have not been expended or encumbered. If the funds
appropriated in any affected item have been encumbered, the director
shall attempt to reduce or eliminate the encumbrance so that the
reductions specified in subdivision (a) may be made to the fullest
extent possible. If the amount reduced pursuant to subdivision (a) is
