2a-7, and as such is required to invest at least 99.5% of its total assets in securities issued or guaranteed 
as to principal and interest by the U.S. government or its agencies or instrumentalities, repurchase 
agreements collateralized solely by cash and/or government securities, and cash.  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="-sec-ix-redline:true;font-size:10.0pt; font-family:Serif; font-style:normal; text-align:left; color:#000000; font-weight:normal; text-decoration:none;"&gt;The 
fund invests in U.S. Treasury securities and seeks to enter into repurchase agreements that present minimal 
credit risk, based on an assessment by Dreyfus, a division of Mellon Investments Corporation (Dreyfus), 
the fund's sub-adviser, of the issuer's, guarantor's or counterparty's credit quality and capacity to 
meet its financial obligations, among other factors.  As part of this assessment, to the extent relevant 
information is available, Dreyfus also evaluates whether environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors 
could have a positive, negative or neutral impact on the entity's financial condition (including cash 
flows, revenues, and short-term debt coverage) and competitive positioning or reputation within the relevant 
sector.  The relevance and significance of these ESG factors to an entity's financial condition, competitive 
positioning or reputation vary and are dependent on the specific sector in which an issuer, guarantor 
or counterparty operates.  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="font-size:10.0pt; font-family:Serif; font-style:normal; text-align:left; color:#000000; font-weight:normal; text-decoration:none;"&gt;With respect to counterparties to repurchase agreements, relevant ESG considerations 
may include carbon financing and exposure, privacy and data security, responsible investments, corporate 
governance, business ethics, and financial system stability.  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font-size:10.0pt; font-family:Serif; font-style:normal; text-align:left; color:#000000; font-weight:normal; text-decoration:none;"&gt;As part 
of its credit risk analysis, Dreyfus evaluates material ESG factors for the U.S. government and U.S. 
government agencies.  These factors are evaluated from a sovereign perspective and may include environmental 
risks such as natural disasters, weather patterns and climate change; social factors such as long-term 
demographic trends, health equality and education standards; and governance factors such as the quality 
of institutional frameworks.  In this regard, ESG considerations are generally expected to have a neutral 
impact on investment decisions pertaining to U.S. Treasury securities or securities issued by U.S. government 
agencies that are backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government, as other factors such as 
the financial condition, liquidity and market positioning are expected to outweigh ESG factors.  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="font-size:10.0pt; font-family:Serif; font-style:normal; text-align:left; color:#000000; font-weight:normal; text-decoration:none;"&gt;In evaluating ESG factors, Dreyfus considers ESG research developed by one or 
more of its affiliates or third parties, including ESG assessments and commentary provided by credit 
rating agencies, and other material ESG information as available.  Identified ESG factors are incorporated 
within Dreyfus's credit risk analysis to determine whether such ESG factors have a positive, negative 
or neutral impact on Dreyfus's assessment of creditworthiness.  Based on this determination, the fund 
may adjust the applicable credit or maturity limits for the relevant issuer, guarantor or counterparty. 
 Dreyfus, however, may determine, across all investments within the fund, that other attributes of creditworthiness, 
such as sources of liquidity and market positioning, outweigh ESG considerations when making an investment 
decision, and may not consider available ESG data in connection with every investment decision it makes 
on behalf of the fund.  As a result, the fund may enter into repurchase agreements, for example, with 
counterparties that may be negatively impacted by ESG factors.&lt;/p&gt;</rr:StrategyNarrativeTextBlock>

of Dreyfus's assessment of an issuer's, guarantor's or counterparty's credit quality and capacity to 
meet its financial obligations, the consideration of ESG factors may contribute to the fund making different 
investments than funds that invest in money market securities but do not incorporate ESG considerations 
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="-sec-ix-redline:true;font-size:10.0pt; font-family:Serif; text-align:left; color:#000000; font-weight:normal; margin-left:8.65pt; font-style:italic;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:10.0pt; font-family:Serif; font-style:normal; color:#000000; font-weight:normal; text-decoration:none;"&gt;when selecting investments.  Under certain 
economic conditions, this could cause the fund to underperform funds that do not incorporate ESG considerations. 
 For example, the incorporation of ESG considerations may result in the fund forgoing opportunities to 
buy certain securities when it might otherwise be advantageous to do so or selling securities when it 
might otherwise be disadvantageous for the fund to do so.  The incorporation of ESG considerations may 
also affect the fund's exposure to certain sectors and/or types of investments, which may adversely impact 
the fund's performance depending on whether such sectors or investments are in or out of favor in the 
market.  Dreyfus's security selection process incorporates ESG data provided by affiliated and unaffiliated 
data providers, which may be limited for certain issuers, guarantors and repurchase agreement counterparties 
and/or only take into account one or a few ESG related components.  In addition, ESG data may include 
quantitative and/or qualitative measures, and consideration of this data may be subjective.  Different 
methodologies may be used by the various data sources that provide ESG data for issuers, guarantors and 
counterparties, including the issuers, guarantors and counterparties themselves.  ESG data from data 
providers used by Dreyfus often lack standardization, consistency and transparency, and, for certain 
issuers, guarantors and counterparties, such data, including ESG ratings and scores, may not be available, 
complete or accurate.  Dreyfus's evaluation of ESG factors relevant to the financial condition or risk 
profile of a particular issuer or guarantor of securities or repurchase agreement counterparty, or otherwise, 
may be adversely affected in such instances.  As a result, the fund's investments may differ from, and 
potentially underperform, funds that incorporate ESG data from other sources or utilize other methodologies.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</rr:RiskTextBlock>
