          FISCAL NOTE (Department of Human Services)                           
          HB 66 will have a fiscal impact on the Department; however,          
          specific levels cannot be calculated with the available in-          
          formation. Since the report criteria would be expanded,              
          additional costs could be incurred when contracting with             
          consultants.
