LEGISLATIVE BUDGET BOARD

Austin, Texas

FISCAL NOTE, 87TH LEGISLATIVE REGULAR SESSION

May 20, 2021

TO:	Honorable DeWayne Burns, Chair, House Committee on Agriculture & Livestock
FROM:	Jerry McGinty, Director, Legislative Budget Board
IN RE:	SB1772 by Zaffirini (Relating to the establishment of the Texas Pollinator-Smart program for solar energy sites.), As Engrossed

No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.

The bill would make no appropriation but could provide the legal basis for an appropriation of funds to implement the provisions of the bill.

Texas A&M AgriLife Extension is required to implement a provision of this Act only if the legislature appropriates money specifically for that purpose. If the legislature does not appropriate money specifically for that purpose, Texas A&M AgriLife Extension may, but is not required to, implement a provision of this Act using other appropriations available for that purpose.

It is assumed that the costs associated with the bill's provisions relating to the creation of the Pollinator-Smart program could be absorbed using existing resources.

Local Government Impact

No fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.
