SUMMARY 
This amendment changes the fee imposed on a person applying for transfer of 
supervision to another state under the Interstate Compact for Adult Offender Supervision 
from between $100 and $250 to a flat fee of $100. Instead of requiring a person accepted 
for supervision under the compact to submit to having a DNA sample taken if the offense 
has the essential elements of an offense in the Maine Revised Statutes, Title 25, section 
1574, subsection 5, it limits the applicable offenses to those of a crime punishable by 
imprisonment for one year or more. The amendment also adds an appropriations and 
allocations section to the bill.

The bill dedicates an existing supervision fee currently deposited in the General Fund and creates a new dedicated 
application fee on adult probationers who apply for transfer of supervision to another state. General Fund revenue is 
decreased by $215,000 in fiscal year 2012-13 and Other Special Revenue Funds revenue is increased by $242,920 as a 
result of dedicating and adding fees. The bill includes an Other Special Revenue Funds allocation of $242,920 in 
fiscal year 2012-13 for the Department of Corrections to defray the costs of supervision. 
The bill also includes a General Fund appropriation of $4,495 and a Highway Fund allocation of $4,318 beginning in 
fiscal year 2012-13 to the Department of Public Safety for supplies related to additional DNA samples required in this 
legislation. Additional staff time related to taking and analyzing DNA samples can be absorbed with existing staff.
