This first pie chart highlights the Sources where you will see the Federal with the largest single source, but you will also see the individual breakdown of the Traditional SHF, Prop 1, and Prop 7 methods of finance as these are tracked and reported separately under different Methods of Finance even though they are technically part of the Appropriated State Highway Fund.
You will also see our General Revenue is nearly non-existant as this was previously related to our debt service on our Proposition 12 bonds that will now be paid for out of Proposition 7 sources which you will also see in our exceptional items.
The other item that you will see no longer expected in is Bond Proceeds that we are expecting to completely spend down within the biennium as Prop 1/7 continue to increase.

This page represents the exceptional items that are in the LAR that are needed to support various programs where we do not have other funding sources available to pay for those programs except for the first item which I previously mentioned that use to be GR funded.
You may notice there are also two large port related dollar items. The first one being related to the capital program which includes a prioritized list of projects that support this amounts. The second relates to the Ship Channel Improvement Fund which is related to the revolving fund that we have recently been working to draft the rules to administer this program so this would be the funding that would be needed to start the program.
There is an amount for each of these programs including the veteran toll discount program that continues to increase as well as items for various rail projects, aviation, and public transportation.
