How was the account used for the source of transferred funds identified? List any other accounts that were also considered (but not used) as the source of the transferred funds.
The account had a surplus which could not otherwise be utilized because it was for personnel who could not be hired until a date significantly later than originally planned. No other accounts were considered.
Identify any projects, purchases, programs, contracts, or other obligations that will be deferred, delayed, or canceled as a result of the reduction in available spending authority that will result in the account that funds are transferred from.
None
If the answer to the above question is “none” then please explain why this account was originally budgeted in a manner that caused an unobligated surplus to develop at this point in the fiscal year.
Funding in this account anticipated filling all positions for an entire fiscal year, however, that did not occur due to slow filling of vacancies.
