SUBPART C. OPERATING BUDGET EXECUTION
§71. Monthly allotments from appropriations
A. Appropriations shall be made available upon approval of the division of administration to the budget units in allotments by months for each fiscal year. These allotments shall be made on the basis of work programs and requests for allotments prepared by the heads of the several budget units. However, the total value of warrants submitted each month shall represent only the cash requirements of the agency, based on the liquidation of obligations and not for the incurring of additional obligations.
B. Not later than the first day of each month, the head of each budget unit and spending agency of the state shall present to the division of administration on the forms and in the manner prescribed, requests for allotments as provided in this Section.
C. The requests for allotments shall conform to the state budget, except as deviations therefrom are made necessary by a change in conditions of operation, to meet unforeseen circumstances, to correct errors, or to cause the withholding of payment to certain private providers in accordance with R.S. 39:72(B).
D. Upon approval of the commissioner of administration, and concurrence of the treasurer of the state of Louisiana, a cash advance or seed may be granted to a requesting state agency for the efficient operation of the state agency. The requesting agency shall provide satisfactory written justification to the commissioner of administration as to the need and benefit to the state agency. Any cash advance or seed shall be repaid by the receiving agency to the state treasury in the same fiscal year for which it was approved. Approval of such cash advance or seed is strictly contingent upon the availability of cash to be determined by the treasurer of the state of Louisiana. No legislative or other appropriation is necessary for an agency to request and receive a cash advance or seed.
