2 The total transfer under this Section from any fund in any
3 fiscal year shall not exceed the lesser of (i) 8% of the

14 amount less than the amount remaining unexpended and unreserved
15 from the total appropriation from that fund estimated to be
16 expended for that fiscal year. This Section does not apply to
17 any funds that are restricted by federal law to a specific use,
