This marks a notable improvement in spending rate compared to the historical average for the same four-month period, which has typically remained below 15 percent and applied against generally smaller capital budgets in the past years. Capital spending will continue to be reviewed with updates provided in future variance reports that will benefit from actual experience over capital intensive months. As more actual delivery materializes over the course of the year, the Programs and Agencies will provide updated spending projections.
