Technical Bulletins

The General Accounting Office (GAO) will periodically issue Technical Bulletins (TB's) to all State Agencies. These Technical Bulletins will be the mechanism used by the GAO to document official Statewide policies and procedures. The Technical Bulletins will be codified into the appropriate manual or handbook format when applicable. In general, the following rules and regulations take precedence: (refer to Technical Bulletin 95-1):

1. State constitution, statutes, laws and administrative code;
2. Federal constitution, laws, rules and regulations;
3. The most recent technical bulletin released.

In all cases of a conflict between a Technical Bulletin and other laws, rules and regulations, contact the GAO liaison assigned to the Agency. For a listing of the GAO liaisons, click here.

The GAO uses a year and a sequential number convention to identify each bulletin. Example: 06-03 is the third bulletin issued in 2006

TB's will be available from the various drop down menu's below. Please Note, TB's are published using PDF format. You will be required to have a PDF viewer installed on your machine to view these bulletins. To download the most recent version of PDF, Click here for the free Adobe Acrobat reader.
