North Dakota Surplus to Hit $2 Billion Within a Year
June 21, 2012 /
North Dakota’s billion-dollar surplus just keeps getting bigger.
Thanks in large part to a boom in oil production, the state’s budget reserves are expected to top $2 billion by the end of June 30, 2013, the end of the two-year budget cycle, according to new figures released earlier this week by the state Office of Management and Budget.
Broken down by category, the state expects to have a surplus of almost $850 million in its general treasury in June 2013. In March, the prediction was $592 million, The Associated Press reported.
