Date: March 7, 2011 To: Systems Who Have Benefited from The
Date: March 7, 2011 To: Systems who have benefited from the Operator Reimbursement Program From: Eric Volk, Executive Director Re: Call to Action‐House Bill 1004‐ND Department of Health Budget Originally funded by a grant from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the North Dakota Water Operator Reimbursement Program provides funding for certification and training expenses for operators of small public drinking water systems. This was a one‐time grant, administered by the ND Department of Health. Unfortunately, this grant is coming to an end and will run out during the summer of 2011. The ND Department of Health (NDDOH) requested supplemental funding to be included in the Governor’s Budget to continue the Operator Reimbursement Program. This request also addressed small wastewater systems. These funds were not included in the Executive Budget. $200,000 for Drinking Water and $180,000 for Wastewater were requested. No additional Full‐ Time Equivalents would be required. Drinking water and wastewater operator certification and training is critical for the protection of public health and the maintenance of safe, optimal and reliable operations of water and wastewater facilities. It is crucial that funding is available to help operators become and remain certified without placing a financial hardship on the small system. House Bill 1004 (NDDOH Budget) is currently assigned to the Senate Appropriations Committee. The first hearing was March 3. On short notice, I was lucky enough to provide testimony in support of the Operator Reimbursement Program to the full committee. We were able to get our foot in the door, but we now need your help to open it fully.

January 2019 | Volume XXXVI | No. 1 aicpa fall meeting of council By Patrick Kautzman, AICPA Council Member Since TCJA passed last December, we have heard from a multitude of professionals with varying levels of concern regarding the continued existence of the food and beverage deduction in light of the fate of entertainment expenses. Well, Notice 2018-76, issued October 3, 2018, clarifies that taxpayers generally may continue to deduct 50% of the food and beverage expenses associated with operating their trade or business. Professional Issues Update by Barry Meloncon, President and CEO of AICPA Barry’s professional issues update included his recurring reminders of the rapid pace of innovation and disruption in our world and our industry. • Since the year 2000, 41% of S&P consumer-centric companies have been acquired 2019 or gone out of business and 39% of the 5th to 85th largest firms no longer exist as standalone firms. Conference dates • The World Economic Forum’s Future of Jobs Report shows that of the top 10 de- clining jobs by 2022, #2 is Accounting, Bookkeeping, and Payroll Clerks and #7 is Accountants and Auditors. Barry’s response: They are referring to an industry that Management Conference is unwilling to change and adapt! He broke a future ready strategy down into 3 parts: May 22-23 • Technology – Master it before it masters you Fargo Holiday Inn • Trust – Build on CPAs expertise • Talent – Think broader Summer variety pack Technology – CPAs must embrace “Software as a Service” through client accounting June 17-19 services and virtual CFO services, “Big Data and Analytics”, “Artificial Intelligence” through Bismarck Ramkota machine learning and virtual assistance, and “Blockchain”.
