The State Board will establish a maximum hourly pay rate prior to the beginning of each biennium. Established pay rates will not exceed a 40-hour maximum per week. Expenditures for wages or salaries above the maximum pay rate or expenditures for hours over the maximum hours per week will not otherwise be eligible for reimbursement without prior approval from the State Board. If no new rate is established, the existing rate remains in effect.
