BULLETIN NO. 99-07, Supplement No. 1

TO THE HEADS OF EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENTS AND ESTABLISHMENTS

SUBJECT:   Apportionment Under the Extension of the Continuing Resolution
                      for Fiscal Year 2000

1. Purpose and background. H. J. Res. 71 extends the continuing resolution through October 29, 1999.

2. Apportionment. I am extending the automatic apportionment specified in section 2 of OMB Bulletin No. 99-07 to October 29, 1999. The portion of the year covered is now 7.9 percent.

The continuing resolution extension includes a provision clarifying the authority of agencies to both do the work necessary to issue mandatory payments due on or about November 1^st and to make the payments.

If you can justify amounts greater than the amount automatically apportioned, please submit a written request for apportionment.
