(a) The Cash Management Improvement Act of 1990, Public Law 101-453, October 24, 1990, (CMIA), imposes requirements for the timely transfer of funds between a federal agency and a state, and for the exchange of interest where transfers are not made in a timely fashion. The Director of Finance is hereby authorized to make provision for such net interest payments required to be made to the federal government. All state agencies, boards, bureaus, departments and institutions shall cooperate fully with the requirements imposed by the Director of Finance in accumulating all the necessary data elements to fully comply with all the provisions of the CMIA.
(b) There is hereby appropriated annually from the State General Fund a sufficient amount to pay the net interest costs due to the federal government in accordance with the provisions of CMIA for all state agencies, boards, bureaus, departments and institutions which maintain their funds in the State Treasury. All state agencies, boards, bureaus, departments and institutions which maintain their funds outside the State Treasury shall pay from their own funds the net interest costs due as a result of their exchange of funds with the federal government.
