P.R. Laws tit. 23, § 9012m
The Executive Director shall prepare and administer the budget of the Permit Management Office. The funds needed to comply with the purposes of this chapter for the current fiscal year and subsequent fiscal years shall be annually consigned in the General Expenses Budget of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico Act. Any moneys received by the Permit Management Office in discharging its task of implementing the provisions of this chapter from sources specified herein and from any others, shall be covered into a Special Fund to be denominated the “Special Permit Management Office Fund”. The Permit Management Office is hereby transferred the funds, accounts, appropriations and appropriation surpluses under the custody of the Regulations and Permits Administration by the date to be established by the Administrator, the Executive Director, and the Chair of the Planning Board, immediately after this act becomes effective.
Before using the resources deposited in the Special Fund, the Permit Management Office shall submit each year, for the approval of the Office of Management and Budget, an expenses budget, to be chargeable to the funds available in the Special Fund. Special Fund resources destined to defraying regular operating expenses of the Permit Management Office shall be complemented with appropriations funded by the General Fund of the Government of Puerto Rico whenever necessary. When the amount of funds available in the Special Fund is greater than the budget of the Permit Management Office by more than ten percent (10%), any excess over such amount shall be covered into the General Fund after notifying the Office of Management and Budget.
