Amend HB 63 by striking SECTION 3 of the bill and 

substituting the following:

	SECTION 3.  PREVENTION OF DOUBLE RECOVERY OR DOUBLE 

REIMBURSEMENT.  (a)  The purpose of this section is to prevent 

double recovery or double reimbursement for the same 

hurricane-related cost or expenditure.

	(b)  If the Texas State University System, Lamar University 

or one of its related institutions, or another state agency, 

institution, or office receives reimbursement from the federal 

government for expenditures made for a purpose described by Section 

2 of this Act, the amounts received may not be spent without the 

prior approval of the governor and the Legislative Budget Board.  A 

federal reimbursement described by this subsection shall be 

deposited in the state treasury and is considered to be undedicated 

general revenue.

	(c)  It is the intent of the legislature that the governor 

and the Legislative Budget Board consider the money described by 

Subsection (b) of this section to be available for budget execution 

transfers to the extent that the governor and the Legislative 

Budget Board determine that the federal reimbursement covers the 

same costs or expenditures as those covered by the appropriation 

made by Section 2 of this Act.
