The funds are payable from federal money designated by the Chief Fiscal Officer of the State. Contracts and other obligations cannot exceed funds actually available in the State Treasury. Grants, donations, and available cash income may also help pay project costs; the agency’s regular operating funds cannot be used for these projects. The appropriations take effect July 1, 2026.
