The initial assessment level shall be the amount that the selection committee recommends in its report to the Governor pursuant to Section 13995.30, which may be less than twenty-five million dollars ($25,000,000). This assessment level is a target, and shall serve as the basis for setting application of the assessment formulae, but the actual amount of collected assessments may be more or less than the assessment level.
