BUDGET

2016 Fiscal Year Budget

The DCPSC’s budget is comprised of two primary revenue types: Operating Funds (or Special Purpose Revenue) and Grant Funds. As an independent, D.C. government agency, the DCPSC’s operating budget is not funded by taxpayers, but rather by assessments levied on regulated utility companies based on their share of revenue derived in the D.C. marketplace. The DCPSC’s expenditures for Special Purpose Revenue were $11,278,021 in FY 2014, $12,764,288 in FY 2015 and $13,428,498 in FY 2016. Grant funds are obtained through the Federal government. Total grant-funded expenditures were $206,881 in FY 2014, $442,571 in FY 2015 and $486,473 in FY 2016. In addition, the agency expended $17,477 in FY 2014, and $55,197 in FY 2015 in intra-District funds. No expenditures were incurred in intra-District category in FY 2016 (DCPSC as Seller). The expenditures in Private Donations were $11,567 in FY 2014, $14,615 in FY 2015 and $11,875 in FY 2016.
