% change from forecast31.2%
Reason for change in estimated budget

The FY20001 Budget increased because of a shortfall in completing the capital construction for the project with FY2000 funds. Some of the necessary plumbing parts to complete the facility modifications were more costly than originally expected. Also, labor and transportation costs were higher than expected. The amount requested by WDFW in FY2001 for capital construction is $25,000. By subtracting that amount from the FY2001 proposal, the O&M and M&E portion of the project is $73,675, about 1,400 off the initial projected cost identified in the FY2000 project proposal.

Reason for change in scope
