Section IX-901 - Financing

A. The state legislature approves the budget for the program, and an appropriation bill is signed into law by the governor each fiscal year which allows the program to operate a revolving fund. This allows the program to receive service charges from donees in order to defray the costs of the operating within the approved budget.

B. Funds expended or advanced, or commitments made or incurred shall be paid or provided for from the receipts of the program's revolving fund prior to the close of the fiscal year.

C. The revolving fund is established with the state treasurer to maintain the revenues from service charges which cover the costs of administering and operating this program. Monies deposited to the revolving fund must be used only for such purposes and for the short- and long-term benefit of the donees.

D. All income from service charges and other monies received by the program are deposited to the revolving fund. Payments covering all expenses are made by state check. All remittances must be in the form of checks drawn on the account of the donee and made payable to the program. All expenditures made from the revolving fund will be in accordance with federal regulations as per FPMR 101-44.202(c)(5).

E. Any evident surplus in the revolving fund shall be passed directly to the donees' benefit through reduction in the service charges for the current inventory during the fiscal year. Surpluses during the fiscal year may be utilized by the manager to acquire additional distribution facilities, improve existing facilities, or other capital expenditures deemed by the manager to be in the best overall interests of the donees. In the event the program is to be terminated, service charges will be reduced to the extent that any surplus will be passed on to the donees on the usable inventory.
