The Minnesota Rail Service Improvement Program (MRSI) was created in 1976. Funding for the MRSI Program was authorized in 1978. In 1982, a Constitutional Amendment provided for Bonds to be used for the MRSI Program. The MRSI Program has received General Fund appropriations totaling $16.0 million and Bond appropriations totaling $25.5 million over the life of the program. The 2003 Legislature rescinded $3.9 million July 1, 2003 and another $2.5 million will be taken July 1, 2004. This deduction from the MRSI Program will decrease the General fund appropriations to $9.6 million.
