Fiscal Detail and Notes 
Part 0 of this bill directs the proceeds from the salvage of rail track taken from Calais Branch rail corridor into the 
State Transit, Aviation and Rail Transportation Fund within the Department of Transportation rather than the default 
General Fund. The estimated salvage value ofthis rail track is $3,000,000. Dedicating this revenue to the State 
Transit, Aviation and Rail Transportation Fund constitutes the loss of un budgeted General Fund revenue in the 
amounts of $2,000,000 in fiscal year 2007-08 and $1,000,000 in fiscal year 2008-09. 
Part P of this bill provides enabling legislation for GARVEE bonds for highway and bridge improvement projects and 
authorizes a GARVEE bond of up to $50 million dollars for the 2008-2009 biennium. These GARVEE bonds are a 
type of revenue bond that do not pledge the full faith and credit of the State. The principal and interest payments of 
these bonds are paid by future federal transportation grants received by the State.
