Part II: Narrative Explanation
II. A - Brief Description Of What The Measure Does That Has Fiscal Impact
Significant provisions of the bill and any related workload or policy assumptions that have revenue or expenditure impact on the responding agency by
section number.
This bill authorizes the establishment of a state-funded public infrastructure assistance program within the emergency
management division of the Military Department.
Section 1: Documents the Legislature's intent to provide supplementary state assistance to county and federally recognized
tribal governments for the cost of disaster-related response to address public infrastructure damage when authorized under
a governor emergency proclamation.
Section 2: Amends RCW 38.52.010 (definitions for the Military Department's statute) to add a definition for "Public
Infrastructure Assistance". It is defined as supplementary state assistance provided to county, local, and federally
recognized tribal governments or certain private, nonprofit organizations when authorized under governor emergency
proclamation for the cost of disaster-related public property debris removal, emergency protective measures to protect life
and property, and permanent repair work to damaged or destroyed public infrastructure.
Section 3: Amends RCW 38.52.030 to authorize the adjutant general (the director of the Military Department) to administer
a state program for emergency assistance to government entities that experience public infrastructure damage due to
disasters.
II. B - Cash receipts Impact
Cash receipts impact of the legislation on the responding agency with the cash receipts provisions identified by section number and when appropriate, the
detail of the revenue sources. Description of the factual basis of the assumptions and the method by which the cash receipts impact is derived. Explanation
of how workload assumptions translate into estimates. Distinguished between one time and ongoing functions.
The Military Department already administers a similar federally funded public assistance program; Federal cash receipts
from FEMA are already recognized in the state budget. This bill would allow for a parallel state-funded program. The
Military Department is authorized to receive donated resources in support of disaster response activities, but this bill does
not inherently cause an impact to the degree to which that would happen.
No impact to cash receipts.
II. C - Expenditures
Agency expenditures necessary to implement this legislation (or savings resulting from this legislation), with the provisions of the legislation that result in
the expenditures (or savings) identified by section number. Description of the factual basis of the assumptions and the method by which the expenditure
impact is derived. Explanation of how workload assumptions translate into cost estimates. Distinguished between one time and ongoing functions.
This bill authorizes the Military Department to establish a state-funded public infrastructure assistance program, but does
not require the agency to do so.
If the agency were to create a program, any associated costs for program development, rulemaking, and pass-through
funding to jurisdictions impacted by disasters and emergencies would be additional. The most significant cost to the state is
the pass-through funding that would be used to support county, local, tribal, and eligible non-profit jurisdictions during a
disaster. The total cost would vary based on the frequency, severity, and duration of the event. Additionally, it is assumed
that the state-funded public infrastructure assistance program would only be used if federal FEMA Public Assistance (PA)
program funding is not available, generally because the FEMA PA total cost threshold was not met. Therefore, this program
would mostly be used for small and medium disasters. The total cost of pass-through support would also depend on program
eligibility requirements yet to be determined.

Part IV: Analysis
A. SUMMARY OF BILL
Description of the bill with an emphasis on how it impacts local government.
Sec. 2 amends RCW 38.52.010. "Public infrastructure assistance" means supplementary state assistance provided to
county, local, and federally recognized tribal governments or certain private, nonprofit organizations when authorized under
governor emergency proclamation for the cost of disaster-related public property debris removal, emergency protective
measures to protect life and property, and permanent repair work to damaged or destroyed public infrastructure.
Sec. 3 amends RCW 38.52.030. The Military Department director is authorized to administer a state program for
emergency assistance to county governments and federally recognized tribes within the state that experience public
infrastructure damage due to a natural, technological, or human-caused disaster.
B. SUMMARY OF EXPENDITURE IMPACTS
Expenditure impacts of the legislation on local governments with the expenditure provisions identified by section number and when
appropriate, the detail of expenditures. Delineated between city, county and special district impacts.
The legislation would result in indeterminate expenditures for counties.
Expenditures by counties under this legislation would be equivalent to funds received for emergency assistance. Funds
would be used to address the costs of disaster-related public property debris removal, emergency protective measures to
protect life and property, and permanent repair work to damaged or destroyed public infrastructure. There is no
information available about the number or severity of natural, technological, or human-caused disasters that may be eligible
for assistance. There is also no information about the amount of assistance available.
Local governments which apply for emergency assistance would also incur costs associated with the application process,
including staff time, legal consultation, and city council or county commissioners’ approval. These costs cannot be
estimated at this time.
C. SUMMARY OF REVENUE IMPACTS
Revenue impacts of the legislation on local governments, with the revenue provisions identified by section number, and when
appropriate, the detail of revenue sources. Delineated between city, county and special district impacts.
The legislation would result in indeterminate revenue for counties. Counties would be eligible to apply for emergency
assistance funds to address the costs of disaster-related public property debris removal, emergency protective measures
to protect life and property, and permanent repair work to damaged or destroyed public infrastructure. There is no
