The budget was signed by the Governor as 2011 Wisconsin Act 32 on June 26, and published on June 30, 2011. This document describes each of the provisions of Act 32, including all fiscal and policy modifications recommended by the Governor, Joint Committee on Finance, and Legislature. The document is organized into eight sections, the first of which contains a Table of Contents, History of the 2011-13 Budget, Brief Chronology of the 2011-13 Budget, Key to Abbreviations, and a User's Guide. This is followed by an "overview" section which provides a series of summary tables and charts which display 2011-13 revenues, appropriations, and authorized position levels. Information is presented for all fund sources, the general fund, transportation fund, and the state's lottery program. The next section contains budget and policy summaries for each state agency and program. The agencies appear in alphabetical order. For each agency, comparative tables are presented which depict funding and authorized position levels. This is followed by a narrative description and fiscal effect, if any, of each budget change item. In this section, the author of each change is identified. Volume I contains the sections identified above and the summaries of the Department of Administration (beginning on page 43) through Miscellaneous Appropriations. Volume II begins with the Department of Natural Resources on page 471. The fourth section of the document lists the various reports and studies which are required in 2011 Act 32. This begins on page 837 of Volume II. The fifth section (Volume II, beginning on page 845) lists the 2011-13 biennial budget issue papers prepared by the Legislative Fiscal Bureau.
