and 11) an annual report by the UW System administration to the Board of Regents on consultants.

The bill also does the following:

1. Prohibits DOA from requiring the Board of Regents to submit to DOA reports on accounts receivable or moving expenses if substantially similar information is included in other reports submitted by the Board of Regents or is accessible through DOA's statewide accounting system.

2. Exempts the Board of Regents from submitting annual reports to the Department of Natural Resources relating to its local program for construction site erosion control and storm water management.

3. Eliminates a requirement for the Board of Regents to submit an annual report to the legislature on sexual assault and sexual harassment and requires instead that each UW institution submit to JCF and the legislature and post on its Internet site an annual campus security report required under federal law.
