This bill provides supplemental appropriations from the State General Fund to various budget accounts within the Nevada Department of Corrections to address unanticipated financial shortfalls. The bill allocates funds to 13 different correctional facilities and administrative accounts, with total appropriations amounting to approximately $49.6 million. These supplemental funds are intended to cover shortfalls in areas such as personnel services, utilities, inmate-driven expenses, operating costs, travel, information services, training, and transportation. Each section of the bill specifies a different correctional facility or budget account, including the Northern Nevada Correctional Center, Stewart Conservation Camp, High Desert State Prison, and the Prison Medical Care budget, among others. The appropriations are supplemental to the original budget allocations made in section 20 of chapter 209 of the Nevada Statutes of 2023. The bill will become effective immediately upon its passage and approval, allowing the Department of Corrections to address its current financial challenges and maintain operational continuity across its various facilities and programs.
