The cash flows for 2001 are currently locked, but if we get a chance to
adjust for carry forwards we will. Worst case is that the dollars will have to be reapproved as outside of the budget. Likely that we will be able to do some internal moving of dollars to compensate for this, but not guarenteed.

The question has to do with carrying over previously approved dollars from 2000 to 2001. The facts ($millions) : 2000 Revenue Management Budget: $5.7 - Original RM Phase one approval $(1.0) In July 00, this amount was approved to spend in 2001 (in the 2001 budget as a line item) $4.7 Expected expenditures in 2000 for Phase one. $(1.0) Current assessment of money not needed for Phase one deliverables (estimated, may still change) $3.7 Amount approved with current work-orders $ .8 Possible amount to be carried over and spent in 2001 $2.9 Phase one amount to be spent in 2000 2001 Revenue Management Budget: $ 1.0 Phase one approved carryover (in 2001 budget) $ .8 Estimated additional carryover (not currently in 2001 budget) $3.0 Phase two ( in 2001 budget in the Marketing Pool) $ 4.8 Total to be spent in 2000 Question: Since the $.8 was approved and is covered in the existing work-orders, can this be additive to the 2001 budget without any further approval - even though it is not currently a line item in the 2001 budget? Or does the $.8 have to be offset against the Marketing Pool? If this $.8 does go against the Marketing pool of $15.0 million, will the revenues generated from Revenue Management reduce the revenues generated from the pool? In other words If the capital dollars from the pool are reduced because of RM will the revenues also be reduced?
