     Section 6.  Capital projects -- contingent funds. If a capital project is financed in whole or in part with appropriations contingent upon the receipt of funding from another funding source, the department of administration may not let the project for bid until the agency receiving funding has submitted a financial plan for approval by the director of the department of administration.

When a review shows that a capital project will result in energy improvements, that project must be submitted to the energy conservation program for funding consideration. Funding provided under the energy conservation program guidelines must be used to offset or add to the authorized funding for the project, and the amount will be dependent on the annual utility savings resulting from the facility improvement. Agencies must be notified of potential funding after the review.

 

     Section 8.  Legislative consent. The appropriations authorized in [sections 1 through 7] constitute legislative consent for the capital projects contained in [sections 1 through 7] within in the meaning of 18-2-102.

     (2) There is appropriated $8,937,500 $9,831,250 from the federal special revenue fund to the department of administration for the southwestern Montana veterans' home project.

     (3) In the event of a private donation of the amount in subsection (2) and subsequent receipt of federal funds, the federal funds must be deposited in the general fund.

     (3)(4) The department of administration is authorized to transfer the appropriations in subsections (1) and (2) among the necessary fund types for this project."

 

     Section 10.  Coordination instruction. If [LC 681] is not passed and approved containing a transfer from the consumer protection account to the long-range building program account, then the appropriation to the department of administration for the Montana law enforcement academy project in [section 2] is void.

 

     Section 11.  Severability. If a part of [this act] is invalid, all valid parts that are severable from the invalid part remain in effect. If a part of [this act] is invalid in one or more of its applications, the part remains in effect in all valid applications that are severable from the invalid applications.
