ASSUMPTION
Officials from the Office of Administration - Division of Budget and Planning assume this proposal would have no fiscal impact on their agency.
Officials from the Department of Transportation (MoDOT) stated that the Department of Missouri, Sons of Union Veterans of the Civil War, will pay for all appropriate signage, therefore there is no fiscal impact to MoDOT.
Oversight assumes that since a provision for paying for the signs is included in the proposal, MoDOT will not erect the signs until funds are received.
Officials from the Department of Natural Resources (DNR) assume this proposal creates the Missouri State Park Board through Executive Order 86-26. The board consists of 8 members, whom are appointed by the governor, with the advice and consent of the senate.
Officials of DNR assume the department would have the responsibility of developing and maintaining an inventory to include the annual physical condition of the state park system, military monuments or memorials, markers, or designated veterans' grave markers on state sites and on municipal, private property or other land that are included in the registry.
ASSUMPTION (continued)
DNR assumes that there are 8 members on the board and they meet every month to discuss all matters relating to the acquisition, development, and operation of the Missouri state park system including state historical military monuments, memorials and markers.
This proposal would require an exhaustive survey of all public and private memorials, markers and events and an annual assessment of each.
The department assumes the registration fees established by the board are small charges; therefore, the revenue arising from it will be minimal.
The department assumes the members of the board would meet every other month for the first year to establish procedures for a registry of state historic military monuments, markers, etc., and for the historical marker program and quarterly after the first year to discuss all matters relating to the acquisition, development, and operation of the Missouri state park system.
The department assumes 4 FTE's would be requested to operate the voluntary program. One Senior Office Support Assistant who provides the support for data entry, filing, maintaining a registry and all matters related to meetings as well as general office duties; and three Cultural Resource Preservationists II who each travel a minimum of twice a month statewide to review, document and inspect all physical condition of state historic military monuments or memorials, markers, or designated veterans' grave markers on state, municipal, private or other land that are included in the registry.
Oversight assumes that other funds could be utilized to implement this proposal and that costs to implement this proposal will not exceed $100,000.

DESCRIPTION
This proposal establishes the Grand Army of the Republic Memorial Highway on the portion of Interstate 44 from the intersection of Highway 100 at the city of Gray Summit west to the Franklin/Crawford County line. The Department of Missouri, Sons of Union Veterans of the Civil War, shall pay for all appropriate signage.
This act establishes the Missouri State Park Board, originally created by Executive Order 86-26. The board is to serve in an advisory capacity for DNR for all matters-with the exception of personnel and budget-relating to the acquisition, development, and operation of the Missouri State Park system. The board shall be responsible for managing all aspects of the historical marker program, as detailed in the act.
This legislation is not federally mandated, however, it may duplicate the National Register Program administered by the Historical Preservation Office within the Department of Natural Resources. It would not require additional capital improvements or rental space.
