General
statement
of
the
effect
D.
C.
Law
11­
221
will
have
on
the
operating
and
capital
budgets
for
 
99.

Implementation
of
D.
C.
Law
11­
221
is
not
expected
to
have
an
impact
on
the
District s
operating
budget
for
Fy
 
99.
At
present,
the
District s
lead
program
for
N
 
99is
100%
grant
funded
and
an
application
for
continued
grant
funds
in
the
amount
of
$
216,339has
been
made
to
the
U.
S.
Environmental
Protection
Agency,
Region
Ill
for
Grant
Year
4.
If
awarded
the
full
amount
of
the
requested
grant
funds,
the
District
is
expected
to
continue
to
operate
its
lead
program
at
a
zero

2.
Quantitative
estimate
of
the
expenditures
needed
to
implement
D.
C.
Law
11­
221.

Current
estimates
indicate
that
it
will
cost
in
the
range
of
$
597,824
a
year
to
administer
the
lead
program.
Ofthis
$
300,372
is
in
personal
sewices,$
128,352
is
nonpersonal
and
the
indirect
cost
is
$
1
15,334.
Much
of
these
costs
are
expected
to
be
covered
by
federal
grant
monies
which
the
District
of
Columbia
is
in
a
developing
stage.
Enforcement,
fines
and
penalty
although
uncertain,
may
amount
to
$
75,000.
Accreditation
and
certification
amounts
to
$
136,500with
total
revenues
amounting
to
approximately
$
2
I
1,500.
These
amounts
would
reduce
the
federal
dollars
by
almost
half
the
current
amount.
However,
as
indicated
in
Program
Element
5,
maintaining
an
effective
infrastructure
for
the
District
will
continue
to
rests
on
available
future
