                          BUDGET HIGHLIGHTS
                   (Executive Budget: pp. 117-120)

The Environmental Facilities Corporation (EFC) is a public benefit
corporation responsible for assisting local governments, State
agencies, and private industry in complying with State and Federal
environmental laws and regulations.  EFC provides assistance in the
design, construction, operation and financing of air pollution
control, drinking water and wastewater treatment, and solid and
hazardous waste disposal facilities.  The Corporation's largest
program is the Clean Water State Revolving Loan Fund, which provides
interest-free short-term and low-interest rate long-term financing to
assist with the planning, design, and construction of water quality
protection projects.  The Corporation also jointly administers the
Safe Drinking Water State Revolving Loan Fund with the New York State
Department of Health.

The EFC is included in the Health, Mental Hygiene and Environmental
Conservation appropriation bill.

State Operations

EFC operations are supported by Special Revenue Funds which are
derived primarily from the Corporation's programs.  The Executive
proposes a Special Revenue Other Fund appropriation of $9,528,000 in
State Fiscal Year (SFY) 2002-03, an increase of $1,472,200 due to
contractual salary increases and relocation expenses.  In SFY 2001-02,
the Executive transferred $135,800 from the Department of
Environmental Conservation (DEC) to the Special Revenue Other Fund
sewage treatment program.  Accompanying the transfer of funds is the
shift of two FTE positions from DEC.

Capital Projects

The Executive maintains a Capital Projects appropriation of $292,000
from the Clean Water/Clean Air Implementation Fund in SFY 2002-03. 
These monies are used for services and expenses including Personal
Services and Fringe Benefits necessary to implement the clean water
and air quality purposes of the 1996 Clean Water/Clean Air Bond Act.

The Executive proposes total State appropriations of $29,365,000 in
the Department of Environmental Conservation for the Water Pollution
Control Revolving Loan Fund, and $70,000,000 in the Department of
Health for the Safe Drinking Water Revolving Loan Fund.  These monies
are used for the capitalization of the State share of the loan funds.

The Executive recommends a reappropriation of $14,500,000 for the
Pipeline for Jobs Program, originally created in SFY 1999-00 to
provide low-cost loans and financial assistance to municipalities,
public utilities, public benefit corporations and businesses for water
supply improvement projects.  The Executive adds language to
suballocate $5,000,000 to the Urban Development Corporation for
economic development projects, including expenses incurred in Monroe,
Ontario, Wayne, Seneca and Cayuga Counties.
