The FY2026 report certifies 42,300.00 appropriated or encumbered but not yet spent from 07/01/2025 to 06/30/2026 at question 7 (page 2). Settlement account G-02-55-000-000-183 is appropriated at 154,347.40, not 42,300.00. Its 06/09/2026 print shows Encumber YTD 0.00 and Requested YTD 0.00. It carries the 42,300.00 as Expended YTD, from journal reference 762 of 01/22/2026, Reclassify expenses to grant. Its 08/31/2026 print shows reference 762 reversed by reference 779 with the same date, Expended YTD 0.00 and Encumber YTD 0.00 again. The 42,300.00 now sits as requisition R25-1415, Opiod Training, vendor To Be Determined, shown under Requested YTD and posted on the trail at 08/31/2026. A requisition is a request. No purchase order was produced and none appears on either print. The report certifies an encumbrance the books never show, and the same report certifies 0.00 spent while its books of 06/09/2026 showed 42,300.00 expended.
