This fiscal year, the bureau will be testing the process for transferring
funds between divisions.  Large blocks of federal program funding will be
reallocated to the division performing the work.  For WRD this means that most
of the larger (usually over $100,000) interdivision transfers will be allocated
to cost centers using the customer number 0001A instead of the previously used
0004x (where x stands for the division:  G for GD, etc.).  The Branch of
Operational Support will make the determination of which customer number to
use prior to allocating the funds via AIS.  All normal assessment practices
apply and are unchanged for FY 1997.  When allocations of money that
originates in another division is done using the 0001A customer number, WRD
will track the funding under the program element used by the other division
and not assign our own (for example, if the funding is from GD, the program
element number will begin with a 7 instead of a 4).

Bradley or me if you have questions.
