AN ACT in relation to allowing Marion Hoffman to file a request for Tier
  I status in the New York state and local police  and  fire  retirement
  system with the state comptroller

  THE  PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM-
BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

  Section 1. Notwithstanding any inconsistent provisions of law,  Marion
Hoffman,  who  has  been  employed with the New York state department of
environmental conservation as an environmental conservation officer  for
approximately  thirty-six  years,  and for reasons not ascribable to her
own negligence did not become a member of the New York state  and  local
police  and fire retirement system, at the time of her hiring and who is
currently a Tier II member of the New York state and  local  police  and
fire  retirement  system shall be deemed to have become a member of such
system as of June 14, 1973 entitling her to Tier  I  status  with  every
right,  benefit  and privilege which would have been available to her on
such date.
  S 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
  FISCAL NOTE. -- Pursuant to Legislative Law, Section 50:
  This bill will deem Marion J. Hoffman, an  Environmental  Conservation
Officer,  to  have first become a member of the New York State and Local
Police and Fire Retirement System on June 14, 1973, thereby making her a
Tier 1 member.
  If this legislation is enacted during the 2010 legislative session, we
anticipate that there will be an increase of approximately $800  in  the
annual contributions of the State of New York for the fiscal year ending
March 31, 2011.
  In addition to the annual contributions discussed above, there will be
an  immediate past service cost of approximately $118,000, which will be
borne by the State of New York and all the  participating  employers  in
the New York State and Local Police and Fire Retirement System.
  This  estimate,  dated April 22, 2010 and intended for use only during
the 2010 Legislative Session, is Fiscal Note No. 2010-146,  prepared  by
the  Actuary for the New York State and Local Police and Fire Retirement
System.
