Statute text

(a)Notwithstanding any other provision of law, when the department allocates funds appropriated to the Substance Abuse Treatment Trust Fund, it shall withhold from any allocation to a county the amount of funds previously allocated to that county from the fund that are projected to remain unencumbered, up to the amount that would otherwise be allocated to that county. The department shall allow a county with unencumbered funds to retain a reserve of 5 percent of the amount allocated to that county for the most recent fiscal year in which the county received an allocation from the fund without a reduction pursuant to this subdivision.

(b)The department shall allocate 75 percent of the amount withheld pursuant to subdivision (a) in accordance with Section 11999.6 and any regulations adopted pursuant to that section, but taking into account any amount withheld pursuant to subdivision (a).

(c)The department shall reserve 25 percent of the amount withheld pursuant to subdivision (a) until all counties have submitted final actual expenditures for the most recent fiscal year. The department shall then allocate the funds reserved to adjust for actual rather than projected unencumbered funds, to the extent that the amount reserved is adequate to do so. Any balance of funds not reallocated pursuant to this subdivision shall be allocated in accordance with subdivision (e).
