FOMB - Letter - Governor - CW FY25 Budget NoV - May 16, 2024
This letter provides a description of necessary corrective actions. It also includes updated FY25
payroll and operating expenditures by concept of spend necessary to achieve a compliant budget
for FY25 (the “FY25 Revised Budget Targets”). These figures must be incorporated in the revised
proposed FY25 budget (the “Revised Proposed FY25 Budget”) to be submitted to the Oversight
Board no later than May 21, 2024.
The Government’s Proposed FY25 Budget is not compliant with the 2023 Fiscal Plan and does
not meet the requirements set forth by the Oversight Board. Substantial revisions and additional
information from the Government are required before the Oversight Board can approve the
Government’s proposed FY25 budget and submit it to the Legislature pursuant to Section
202(c)(1)(A) of PROMESA.
In considering each of the Government’s requests for incremental funds and budgetary changes,
the Oversight Board reviewed supporting data, where provided, and engaged in discussions with

the Government and relevant Government agencies. The FY25 Revised Budget Targets attached
to this letter remain at $13,062 million and include reallocations of appropriations from reserve
accounts under the Custody of the Office Management and Budget (“OMB”) and Custody of the
Department of Treasury (“Treasury”) to fund certain proposed increases.
Regarding denied requests, we acknowledge the potential necessity for additional funding. Should
adequate supporting information be provided within the current fiscal year, these requests will be
reconsidered.
The funding requirements associated with expiring federal funds, including American Rescue
Plan Act of 2021 (“ARPA”) and Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief (“ESSER”)
funds, have been recognized and accounted for within the budgetary review. The funding
requirements associated with ARPA will be held in a reserve within a custody account, and the
release of funds to the relevant agencies shall be contingent upon the Government’s submission
of adequate supporting documentation and subsequent approval from the Oversight Board. For
detailed conditions governing the release of funds, please refer to the “Budgetary Changes and
Investments” section.
The following list includes items from the Proposed FY25 Budget that the Oversight Board has
determined to be in compliance with the 2023 Fiscal Plan. The following requests have been
approved in the full amount that the Government has requested and will be provided within the

Section 1.- The Department of the Treasury (“Treasury”) will remit to the Legislative
Branch and its components, the Judicial Branch, the University of Puerto Rico (“UPR”), and the
non-profit entities that receive funds from the General Fund, monthly and in advance, the
budgetary allotments corresponding to one-twelfth (1/12) of the budget allocation provided herein
for such entities. The one-twelfth monthly allocation to each entity (except with respect to the
Judicial Branch) shall be subject to the 2.5% withholding set forth in the section below during the
first three quarters of FY2025.
Section 2.- The Director of the Office of Management and Budget (“OMB”) may authorize
the encumbrance and disbursement of up to 97.5% of each appropriation intended for encumbrance
and disbursement during the first three quarters of FY2025. The Director of the OMB shall
withhold the remaining two and a half percent (2.5%) of each appropriation until after the end of
the third quarter of FY2025. The withheld percentage of each appropriation shall only be
encumbered and disbursed during the fourth quarter of FY2025 if (i) during the first eight months
of FY2025 the actual General Fund revenues reported to the Oversight Board reach the revenue
forecast in the 2023 Fiscal Plan for that period and (ii) the encumbrance and disbursement is
approved by the Oversight Board. If actual General Fund revenues for the first eight months of
FY2025 fail to reach the revenue forecast for that period, the amount of the withheld percentage
of each appropriation that may be encumbered and disbursed shall be reduced proportionally
according to the negative budget variance between projected and actual General Fund revenues.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, PayGo appropriations, Consent Decree amounts, Highways and
Transportation Authority (“HTA”) appropriations, economic incentive funds and distributions,
cigarette and rum distributions, allocations of Sales and Use Tax (“SUT”) to the Municipal
Administration Fund (“FAM,” for its Spanish acronym), additional appropriations to the General
Fund for the milestones and incentives detailed in the following sections, debt service payments
under the custody of the Department of Treasury, contributions to the Pension Reserve Trust,
Police Retirement Act 106 Defined Contributions, and agencies in the Department of Public Safety
(“DPS”) and in the Health groupings, as defined in the 2023 Fiscal Plan, shall not be subject to the
2.5% withholding requirement.
Section 3.- Notwithstanding any provision in the 2023 Fiscal Plan to the contrary, each of
the appropriations listed in the upcoming FY2025 General Fund Budget under the following
sources of revenue is entirely dependent on the level of revenues collected there from: (i)
Allocation of SUT to FAM (excluding Debt Portion); (ii) Cigarette and rum distributions; and (iii)
The Municipal Revenue Collection Center’s (“CRIM,” for its Spanish acronym) property tax of
1.03%. As such, the disbursements of those appropriations will be gradual and subject to the actual
collections thereunder. No expenditure, disbursement, pledge, or any other encumbrance of any
such funds may be made until such time as the revenues are collected and accounted for in the
books.
Section 4.- For purposes of determining compliance with the fifty percent (50%) election
year expenditures and obligations limitation established in Article 8 of Act No. 147 of June 18,
1980, as amended, known as the “Office of Management and Budget Organic Act,” any obligation
or expenditure of an actually received appropriation in capital expenditures, HTA appropriations,
cigarette and rum distributions, allocations of SUT to FAM, Title III professional fees under the
Hon. Pierluisi
May 16, 2024
Page 23 of 31
custody of the Fiscal Agency and Financial Advisory Authority (“AAFAF,” for its Spanish
acronym) and the Department of Treasury, or if subject to milestone completion will not be
counted to determine compliance with said fifty percent (50%) limitation. In other words, the fifty
percent (50%) expenditures or obligations limitation will only be measured on the unrestricted
appropriation for the entity as established in this Joint Resolution. Provided further that, as a result
of an allocation of an Appropriation subject to milestone completion, an entity may actually spend
or obligate more than 50% of the total appropriation for FY2025, before the new elected officials
assume of their positions, without constituting a violation of said Article 8. Furthermore, subject
to the review and approval of the Oversight Board, if the Department of Education determines that
it needs amounts that may exceed fifty percent (50%) of the total allocations of FY2025 for the
operation of the Department of Education before the new elected officials take possession of their
positions, due to the delay in the availability and receipt of allocated and necessary federal funds,
the Department of Education, subject to the previous approval of the Oversight Board, may
obligate and spend more than fifty percent (50%) of the total allocations for FY2025 before the
newly elected officials assume their positions, without constituting a violation of the fifty percent
(50%) limitation on obligations and expenditures during election years established in Article 8 of
Act No. 147 of June 18, 1980, as amended, known as the “Office of Management and Budget
Organic Act.” The Oversight Board may impose any requirement or condition when approving the
authorization requested by the Department of Education under this Section.
Section 5.- If and when the Government enacts new spending measures that do not provide
for a dedicated, permanent source of revenue or rely on funding sources that fail to materialize,
unless and until the Government (i) amends the law to eliminate the unfunded mandate, or (ii)
specifically identifies alternate funding sources, the Oversight Board, in its discretion, may adopt
a revised fiscal plan and budget to provide for a corresponding reduction in the appropriations to
one or more governmental agencies to account for the shortfall and balance the budget.
Section 6.- No later than 45 days after the closing of each quarter of FY2025, the Secretary
of the Treasury shall revise the projected net revenues of the General Fund for FY2025 (the
“Quarterly Revision”) and shall provide notice of the revision to the Director of the OMB, the
Governor, and the Oversight Board, with a copy sent to the Legislative Assembly. The Quarterly
Revision shall project future revenues based on actual General Fund revenues and include
revisions to the assumptions used to generate the General Fund’s net revenue projections.
Section 7.- All appropriations authorized in any prior fiscal year, including appropriations
without a specific fiscal year, are eliminated and no disbursement of public funds may be covered
by such appropriations, except the following which the 2023 Fiscal Plan redeploys as current
appropriations, subject to Oversight Board adjustment at any time: (i) appropriations authorized in
the fiscal year to carry out permanent improvements that have been encumbered, accounted for,
and kept on the books, but not exceeding two fiscal years on the books; (ii) appropriations in the
certified budget for equipment with procurement cycles that extend beyond the end of the fiscal
year, which are encumbered on or before June 30, 2024; (iii) the portion of the appropriations
authorized for FY2024 that have been encumbered on or before June 30, 2024, which shall be kept
in the books for 60 days after the termination of FY2024 and after those 60 days no amount shall
be drawn against such portion for any reason; (iv) all appropriations for the emergency reserve

December 31, 2024; and (xvii) appropriations authorized in FY2024 for economic incentives held
under the custody of the Department of Treasury that have yet to be transferred to the Department
of Economic Development and Commerce (“DDEC,” for its Spanish acronym) will be made
available until December 31, 2025. In addition, this restriction on the use of appropriations of prior
fiscal years shall not apply to: (i) programs financed in whole or in part with federal funds; (ii)
orders by the United States district court with jurisdiction over all matters under Title III of the
Puerto Rico Oversight, Management, and Economic Stability Act (“PROMESA”); or (iii) matters
pertaining to any consent decree or injunction, or an administrative order or settlement with a
federal agency, with respect to federal programs.
Section 8.- On or before July 31, 2024, the Secretary of the Treasury, Executive Director
of AAFAF, and the Director of the OMB shall provide to the Oversight Board, with a copy to the
Legislative Assembly, a certification indicating the amounts of unused FY2024 appropriations for
all items enumerated in the previous section. If the Government fails to submit said certification,
the amount of unused funds in items (i) and (ii) in Section 7 listed above will not carry over to the
following fiscal year.
Section 9.- Each power of OMB, AAFAF, or the Department of the Treasury, including
the authorities granted under Act 230-1974, as amended, known as the “Puerto Rico Government
Accounting Act” or “Act 230,” to authorize the reprogramming or extension of appropriations of
prior fiscal years, is hereby suspended.
Section 10.- The appropriations approved in this budget may only be reprogrammed with
the prior approval of the Oversight Board. For the avoidance of doubt, this prohibition includes
any reprogramming of any amount, line item or expenditure provided in this budget, regardless of
whether it is an intra-agency reprogramming. Reprogramming, also known as reapportionments,
may be made into spend concepts and / or objects not explicitly listed in the certified budget
resolutions, as long as such requests are submitted to and approved by the Oversight Board in
advance. Reprogrammed funds authorized for the hire of personnel in specialized roles are
Hon. Pierluisi

restricted for that specific use only and may not be made available, nor may they be used for any
other budgetary needs.
Section 11.- The Governor, through his fiscal component (Department of Treasury, OMB
and AAFAF), must submit to the Oversight Board all reporting requirements set forth on Exhibit
70 of the 2023 Fiscal Plan according to the reporting cadence described therein. In addition, if the

subsequent report by the Governor through his fiscal component (Department of Treasury, OMB
and AAFAF) must illustrate the specific implementation of such reprogramming, including the
amount, the source of the reprogrammed amount identified by the Government entity and
expenditure concept, the Government entity that received such amount, and the expenditure
concept to which it was applied.
In addition, the Governor, through his fiscal component (Department of Treasury, OMB
and AAFAF), shall submit to the Oversight Board a comprehensive reporting package in a similar

any reprogramming of funds to/from other programs or agencies.
In addition, the Governor, through his fiscal component (Department of Treasury, OMB
and AAFAF), shall submit to the Oversight Board a monthly reporting package detailing capital
expenditure spending by agency and by project, including details for expenditures which have
RFPs issued, which contracts have been awarded, and which contracts are in process. To the extent

Page 26 of 31
(“CARES”); (iii) the Families First Coronavirus Response Act (“FFCRA”); (iv) the Coronavirus
Response and Relief Supplemental Appropriations Act (“CRRSAA”); and (v) the American
Rescue Plan (“ARP”). Improved reporting will help prevent and combat misuse, fraud, waste, and
abuse, or such claims. Therefore, the Governor, through his fiscal component (Department of
Treasury, OMB and AAFAF), shall also submit to the Oversight Board any report that the
Commonwealth government (i) provides to the federal government or (ii) creates internally. Such
reports shall be provided to the Oversight Board at the same time that they are provided to the
federal government or circulated internally within the Commonwealth government. The Governor,
through his fiscal component (Department of Treasury, OMB and AAFAF), shall also provide, as
requested, performance metrics including but not limited to: (i) time required to submit claims; (ii)
time required to submit compliance reporting; and (iii) time required to collect reimbursement
claims.
The reports required pursuant to this section are in addition to the reports that the Governor,
through his fiscal component (Department of Treasury, OMB and AAFAF), must submit to the
Oversight Board in accordance with Section 203 of PROMESA.
Section 13.- In conjunction with the reports that the Governor must submit to the Oversight
Board no later than 15 days after the last day of each quarter of FY2025, pursuant to Section 203(a)
of PROMESA, the Secretary of the Treasury, Executive Director of AAFAF, and the Director of
the OMB shall each certify to the Oversight Board: (i) that no appropriation of any previous fiscal
year (except for the appropriations covered by the exceptions in the sections above) have been or
will be used to cover any expense; and (ii) the Director of the OMB shall certify to the Oversight
Board that no amount of the unallocated capital expenditures under the custody of OMB has been
obligated, unless authorized in accordance with the section below.
Section 14.- The Emergency Reserve, the unallocated capital expenditures, health care
investments reserve, milestones reserve, payroll reserve, Civil Service Reform (“CSR”) reserve,
utility / Puerto Rico Electric Power Authority (“PREPA”) legacy charge reserve, and the economic
incentive fund under the custody accounts of OMB and the Department of the Treasury, as detailed
in the certified budgets from FY2020 through FY2025 may not be used to cover any allocation or
expense whatsoever without the prior written approval of the Oversight Board. If Federal
Emergency Management Agency (“FEMA”) funding is not available for capital expenditures, a
transfer from unallocated capital expenditures may be requested.
Accessing Emergency Reserve funds shall require: (i) a State of Emergency declaration,
by the Governor of the Commonwealth, in accordance with Article 6.10 of Act 20-2017, as
amended, known as the “Puerto Rico Public Safety Department Act,” and in accordance with the
above description of what constitutes an extraordinary event; (ii) OMB to make a request to the
Oversight Board for access to the emergency reserve fund for a finite period, indicating the agency
or local government that will receive the advance, the amount of the advance, usage of funds
requested, and the PR Emergency Disaster Management (“PREMA”) request number from Web
Emergency Operations Center (“WEBEOC”) platform as well as the projected repayment date of
the funds; (iii) amounts approved by the Oversight Board and disbursed to the Government shall
be replenished not later than the following fiscal year; and (iv) agencies and municipalities,
recipients of state emergency reserve funds, shall update OMB on a quarterly basis about the Public
Assistance process with FEMA.
OMB shall request Emergency Reserve funds exclusively for the use of Government
agencies and affected local governments. The agencies and affected local governments must be in
an emergency-declared area as described above and the Emergency Reserve funds must be used
for response activities related to the declared event. Non-profits, public corporations outside of the
Commonwealth, and individuals are not eligible applicants for advances through the Emergency
Reserve fund.
OMB shall submit quarterly reports to the Oversight Board detailing the status of
Emergency Reserve funds, amounts provided to agencies and affected local governments, amount
of funds expended, amount of funds remaining, and updated projected re-payment dates. Agencies
and municipal governments that received funds from the Emergency Reserve are required to file
with FEMA a Request for Public Assistance (“RPA”) and a Project Worksheet to ensure maximum
federal fund reimbursements are replenished into the Emergency Reserve. As a rule, OMB shall
offset late repayment by agencies and local governments with other Commonwealth funding to
repay the Emergency Reserve on time.
Section 16.- Cost share matching funds are restricted for use on approved projects /
requirements under FEMA’s Individual Assistance, Public Assistance, and Hazard Mitigation
programs. Unused cost share matching funds in a given fiscal year may be rolled over to the
following fiscal year and are subject to the same restrictions. The use of these funds must be
coordinated with Community Development Block Grant Disaster Recovery (“CDBG-DR”) and
Community Development Block Grant Mitigation (“CDBG-MIT”) in meeting cost share
requirements.
Section 17.- The amount of $66,000,000 is set aside from the Municipal Consolidation
Fund, as established in the 2023 Fiscal Plan, to finance the operation of the municipalities and
provide essential services to the residents of the municipalities of Puerto Rico. These services
include: safety and security services through the Municipal Police; financing the municipal
structure for emergency management and disaster; delivery of medications and distribution of non-
perishable food for the elderly and persons with disabilities; paving secondary and tertiary streets;
equipment aimed at the maintenance of health and treatment of adverse health conditions;
equipment for persons with mobility impairments; services aimed at serving the population of

children, youth and the elderly, such as housekeeping, childcare for working parents, temporary
subsidy of electricity costs for assisted breathing equipment, as well as the acquisition of movable
equipment in the event of a duly accredited emergency, equipment for the maintenance of
infrastructure, natural resources and green areas in the communities, school and sports materials;
among others, subject to the approval of a legislation that restructures the current inventory tax
model. Funding set aside is intended to hold certain municipalities harmless impacted by the
legislative changes to the inventory tax based on a threshold to be determined by the Oversight
Board.
Section 18.- The FY2025 total budget allocated for the Department of Health’s Intellectual
Disability program will be the current budget appropriation of $69,816,000, plus any of the
program’s unused “roll-over” funds from prior fiscal years.
Section 19.- Additional General Funds may be made available to agencies upon reaching
certain, specified milestones and after written approval and authorization from the Oversight
Board. Once respective milestones are achieved, agencies must provide a formal notice and submit
supporting data corroborating such achievement to the Oversight Board for its review. The
subsections below detail the allowable milestones and incentives for each relevant agency.
Section 20.- Funds to provide support for essential services and programs to the most
vulnerable municipalities. Funds to be deployed for funding critical community needs. Funds will
be made available to OMB to directly distribute to municipalities in accordance with the eligibility
guidelines developed by OMB, which shall be subject to approval and authorization from the
Oversight Board.
A. Develop and propose an updated needs-based assessment and supporting analysis for
the equitable distribution of essential service funding for the most vulnerable
municipalities. Funds shall be held under the Custody of OMB until a revised proposal
of the methodology, eligibility requirements, and fund administration guidelines are
submitted to the Oversight Board on or before August 30, 2024 and the proposal is
subsequently reviewed and approved by the Oversight Board.
Section 21.- Consistent with the stated requirements in the certified budget resolutions and
Certified Fiscal Plan, funds to cover parametric insurance will be made available to renew
coverage or purchase additional coverage to comply with FEMA Operations & Maintenance
(“O&M”) requirements, after the approval and authorization from the Oversight Board.

Section 22.- As a rule, necessary for the responsible disbursement of budgetary allocations
for operating and other expenses, OMB shall withhold from any of the allocations to the agencies
of the Executive Branch the amounts necessary to pay for the PayGo contribution, unemployment
insurance, or taxes withheld from their employees, when OMB determines that such a withholding
is necessary to ensure compliance with these obligations by the agencies concerned. Any such
amounts withheld by OMB shall solely be reprogrammed to pay the corresponding outstanding
obligations related to PayGo contributions, unemployment insurance, or taxes withheld from
employees.
Section 23.- OMB and the Department of the Treasury are authorized to establish the
necessary mechanisms to ensure that when implementing the concept of mobility, pursuant to the
provisions of Act 8-2017, as amended, known as the “Puerto Rico Human Resources Management
and Transformation in the Government Act,” the corresponding transfer of funds allocated to
payroll and related costs of said employee are to be carried out simultaneously.
Section 24.- The Secretary of the Treasury, the Director of the OMB, and the Finance
Director and Executive Director of each agency or public corporation covered by the 2023 Fiscal
Plan will be responsible for not spending or encumbering during FY2025 any amount that exceeds
the appropriations authorized for FY2025. This prohibition applies to every appropriation set forth
in a budget certified by the Oversight Board, including appropriations for payroll and related costs.
The Executive Director of AAFAF and the Director of the OMB shall also certify to the Oversight
Board, with a copy to the Legislative Assembly, by September 30, 2024, that no amount was spent
or encumbered that exceeded the appropriations in the certified budget for FY2024.
Section 25.- For the avoidance of doubt, any reference within the budget to AAFAF, the
Department of the Treasury, or OMB, or any of their respective officers, applies to any successor
thereof.
Section 26.- On or before July 31, 2024, the Governor shall provide to the Oversight Board
budget projections of General Fund revenues and expenditures for each quarter of FY2025, which
must be consistent with the corresponding budget certified by the Oversight Board (the “Quarterly
Budget”). The Quarterly Budget shall be provided to the Oversight Board in Excel format and
include detailed allocations by agency, public corporation, fund type and concept of spend.
Together with the report that the Governor must provide under Section 203 of PROMESA not later
than 15 days after the last day of each quarter, the Governor shall provide a quarterly variance
analysis that is consistent with modified accrual accounting.
Section 27.- Consistent with the stated requirements in the certified budget resolutions, the
PREPA Employee Pension funds held under the Custody of OMB shall only be released after
AAFAF provides such documentation, to the satisfaction of the Oversight Board.
Section 28.- Police Retirement Act 106 Defined Contribution held under the Custody of
OMB shall only be released upon approval from the Oversight Board.

Section 29.- Pursuant to Section 204(b)(2) of PROMESA, since November 6, 2017 (and as
last modified on April 30, 2021), the Oversight Board has maintained a Contract Review Policy
(the “Policy”) which requires prior Oversight Board review and approval of contracts with an
aggregate value of $10 million or more to assure that they “promote market competition” and “are
not inconsistent with the approved fiscal plan.” The Policy applies to any contract or series of
related contracts, inclusive of any amendments, modifications or extensions, with an aggregate
expected value of $10 million or more, that is proposed to be entered into by the Commonwealth
(which includes the Executive, Legislative, and Judicial branches of government) or any covered
instrumentality. Notably, the Policy considers (i) the aggregate expected value of contracts or
amendments across fiscal years; and (ii) contracts or amendments that cause the aggregate value
of active contracts with the same contractor or its affiliates to reach $10 million or more in a
particular fiscal year, regardless of the nature of services. In addition, the Oversight Board may
select to review contracts below the $10 million threshold for these purposes, on a random basis
or at its own discretion. Specifically, in the case of PREPA, the contract review threshold has been
reduced to $250,000 exclusively for contracts which are payable from PREPA’s “Professional &
Technical Outsourced Services” and “PREPA Restructuring and Title III” budget line items.
Consequently, all proposed contracts (or series of related contracts) that meet such threshold and
are classified as Consulting Services Contracts by the Office of the Comptroller of Puerto Rico
(and any applicable sub-categories) must be submitted to the Oversight Board for review and
approval prior to execution. For all other PREPA contracts, the Oversight Board maintains the
current $10 million threshold as well as its ability to review contracts at its discretion. Similarly,
in the case of UPR, the Oversight Board lowered the UPR’s contract review threshold to $2 million
for all contracts. Finally, to further ensure certain contracts promote market competition, the
Oversight Board may require, at its own discretion, the Commonwealth or any covered
instrumentality, to keep the Oversight Board appraised of the ongoing procurement processes for
the execution of new contracts.
Conclusion
Per the requirements of PROMESA § 202(c)(1)(B)(ii), the Oversight Board provides the
Government with an opportunity to correct the issues by submitting a Revised Proposed FY25
Budget to the Oversight Board no later than May 21, 2024.
The Oversight Board looks forward to working together to certify a Commonwealth FY25 Budget
by June 30, 2024.
Sincerely,
