Wayne Gilchrest: “I know the difficulty of transferring money from one account to…”

On the recordAugust 4, 1998

I know the difficulty of transferring money from one account to another account, and I realize and understand the $8 million would account for close to, if not including, $15 million from these various accounts. It is my understanding, though, that there is a fairly large pot of money that is in unobligated funds carried over from one year to the next, but I do not want to get into a discussion about fine-tuning the amounts of how much money is available for satellites and Weather Service and how much money for other areas.
