   Purse  Fund.   Provides  that  moneys in the Fund shall be used by the      
   Department  of  Agriculture  for   Illinois   conceived   and   foaled      
   standardbred  race  purses  at the Illinois State Fair and the DuQuoin      
   State Fair.  Effective immediately.                                         
          STATE MANDATES NOTE, H-AM 1                                          
          In the opinion of DCCA, HB 618 (H-am 1) does not meet the            
          definition of a State mandate under the State Mandates Act.          
          FISCAL NOTE, H-AM 1 (Department of Agriculture)                      
          HB 618 (H-am 1) would provide the Department with an additional      
          $2.7 million per year for standardbred purses at the State Fair      
          in Springfield and DuQuoin. This total is based on the amount        
          of money generated and deposited into the standardbred purse         
          account for Fairmont Park in calendar year 2000. HB 618 would        
          not impose any additional costs upon the Department.                 
          BALANCED BUDGET NOTE (Bureau of the Budget)                          
          Since HB 618 is not a supplemental appropriation bill, the           
          Balanced Budget Note Act is inapplicable.                            
          BALANCED BUDGET NOTE, H-AM 1 (Bureau of the Budget)                  
          Same as previous Balanced Budget Note.
