1. The Division shall establish funds for projects of capital construction necessary to account for the program of capital construction approved by the Legislature. These funds must be used to account for all revenues, appropriations and expenditures restricted to constructing buildings and other projects which come under the supervision of the Division.
2. If a state department, board, commission or agency provides to the Division money that has not been appropriated by the Legislature for a capital improvement project, any interest earned on that money accrues to the benefit of the project. Upon a determination by the Administrator that the project is completed, the Division shall return any principal and interest remaining on that money to the department, board, commission or agency that had provided the money to the Division.
3. Except as otherwise provided in subsection 4, if the money actually received by the Division for a capital improvement project includes money from more than one source, the money must be expended in the following order:
(a) Money received for the project from the Federal Government;
(b) Money generated by the state department, board, commission or agency for whom the project is being performed;
(c) Money that was approved for the same or a different project during a previous biennium that has been reallocated during the current biennium for the project;
(d) Except as otherwise provided in paragraphs (e), (f) and (g), money received for the project from any other source;
(e) Money from the issuance of general obligation bonds;
(f) Money from the State Highway Fund; and
(g) Money from the State General Fund.
4. The provisions of subsection 3 do not apply if the receipt of any money from the Federal Government for the project is conditioned upon a different order of expenditure.
