AR HB1056

Appropriates $1,296 to the Arkansas State Board of Registration for Professional Soil Classifiers from cash funds for operating expenses during fiscal year 2014-2015 ending June 30, 2015.

Allocates the $1,296 entirely to operating expenses, with zero funding for conferences and travel, professional fees, capital outlay, and data processing.

Requires the agency to request legal services from the Arkansas Attorney General before employing private attorneys, with exceptions only if the Attorney General certifies insufficient personnel availability and consents in writing.

Mandates compliance with state procurement, accounting, budgetary procedures, revenue stabilization, and salary restriction laws when disbursing appropriated funds.

Declares an emergency effective July 1, 2014, citing the constitutional prohibition on multi-year appropriations and the need for immediate funding to maintain agency operations.
