          FISCAL NOTE  (Dept. of Transportation)                               
          Potential increase in GRF State operating assistance is between      
          $450,000 and $500,000 for FY98. Costs could increase from other      
          transit districts being granted the exemption.                       
          STATE MANDATES FISCAL NOTE                                           
          In the opinion of DCCA, HB994 fails to create a State mandate.       
        SENATE AMENDMENT NO. 1.

   increase  may  be  exceeded  for a participant that is a rural transit      
   district that received an initial appropriation in Fiscal  Year  1994.      
   Provides  that  for  any  such  participant, a 10% maximum increase is      
   established in each subsequent year following the Fiscal Year when the      
   amount appropriated is equal to or greater than the maximum  allowable      
   in  the  Section of the Downstate Public Transportation Act concerning      
   quarterly reports and annual audits.  Effective immediately.
