  2  4                           EXPLANATION
  2  5    This bill makes a transfer from the cash reserve fund to
  2  6 the rebuild Iowa infrastructure fund (RIIF) for fiscal year
  2  7 2003-2004.  The transferred moneys are to be used for the
  2  8 standing appropriation from RIIF to the environment first
  2  9 fund.  The transfer is exempt from provisions in Code section
  2 10 8.56 which otherwise prohibit transfers from the cash reserve
  2 11 fund or use of the moneys in the fund by means other than an
  2 12 appropriation.
  2 13    The bill provides for transfer of the unencumbered or
  2 14 unobligated balance in the environment first fund to the cash
  2 15 reserve fund at the close of fiscal year 2003-2004.  This
  2 16 transfer is exempt from the Code section 8.33 provisions
  2 17 providing for reversion of appropriations at the close of a
  2 18 fiscal year and from 2002 and 2003 session law provisions that
  2 19 moneys remaining unencumbered or unobligated in the
  2 20 environment first fund at the close of the fiscal year shall
  2 21 remain available in the fund.  If a tax on racetrack
  2 22 enclosures conducting gambling games is enacted by the
  2 23 Eightieth General Assembly, 2004 Regular Session, that is
  2 24 applicable to the period beginning July 1, 2002, and ending
  2 25 June 30, 2004, and the proceeds are credited to RIIF, the
  2 26 ending balance transfer is to be reduced accordingly.
  2 27    The bill takes effect upon enactment.
