Federal Fund Appropriation.........

Funds are appropriated in the
Program 23.01.07.01 in the Office
on Aging's budget for Public
Assistance for Adults and
Emergency                           Assistance.

Authorization is hereby granted
to use these receipts as special
funds for operating expenses
under this program.

Provided that the funds included
herein for grant increases are
approved as necessary for energy
assistance because it has been
clearly demonstrated that the
recent increase in home heating
costs of low income residents of
Maryland have risen much more
quickly than their other costs.
These funds appropriated herein
may only be used to pay such
additional amounts for the home

heating needs of public

assistance recipients, calculated
on a seasonable basis, to be paid
in the most administratively
efficient manner in accord with
all applicable federal and State
laws and regulations.

All appropriations provided for
public assistance payments are to
be used only for the purpose
herein appropriated and there
