Amend HB 654, second reading engrossment, on page 2 of the 
bill by striking lines 9 through 16 and substituting the following:
	(e)  The local mental health authority operating the crisis 
stabilization unit under contract shall use, for the purpose of 
operating the 16-bed unit, the money appropriated to the department 
for operating 16 beds in state hospitals that is allocated to the 
local mental health authority.  The department shall ensure that 
the local mental health authority retains the remainder of the 
local authority's state hospital allocation that is not used for 
operating the 16-bed unit.  The department may allocate additional 
funds appropriated to the department for state hospitals to the 
crisis stabilization unit pilot project.
	(f)  The department shall reduce the number of beds the 
department operates in the state hospital by 16.  The department, in 
collaboration with the local mental health authority, shall ensure 
that the 16 beds in the crisis stabilization unit are made available 
to other mental health authorities for use as designated by the 
department.
