(a) Whenever the Director of Finance determines with reasonable certainty that the actual revenues which the Commonwealth will receive during a fiscal year will differ by more than 200,000 or three percent or more increase in revenues, the Governor shall transmit within 15 calendar days a special budget message to the legislature proposing to: (1) Increase the reserve for the fiscal year; or (2) Provide additional budget authority for the fiscal year.
