(a) The Parks Project Revolving Fund is hereby established in the State Treasury. Except as otherwise specified in this section, upon approval of the Department of Finance there shall be transferred to, or deposited in, the fund all money appropriated, contributed, or made available from any source, including sources other than state appropriations, for expenditure on work within the powers and duties of the department with respect to the construction, alteration, repair, and improvement of state park facilities, including, but not limited to, services, new construction, major construction and equipment, minor construction, maintenance, improvements, and equipment, and other building and improvement projects for which an appropriation is made or, as to funds from sources other than state appropriations, as may be authorized by written agreement between the contributor or contributors of funds and the department and approved by the Department of Finance. (b) Money from state sources transferred to, or deposited in, the fund for major construction shall be limited to the amount necessary based on receipt of competitive bids. Money transferred for this purpose shall be upon the approval of the Department of Finance. Any amount available, in the state appropriation, that is in excess of the amount necessary based on receipt of competitive bids, shall be immediately transferred to the credit of the fund from which the appropriation was made. Money in the fund also may be expended, upon approval of the Department of Finance, to finance the cost of a construction project within the powers and duties of the department for which the federal government will contribute a partial cost thereof, if written evidence has been received from a federal agency indicating that money has been appropriated by Congress and the federal government, and that the federal government will pay to the state the amount specified upon the completion of construction of the project. The director may approve plans, specifications, and estimates of cost, and advertise for and receive bids on, those projects in anticipation of the receipt of the written evidence. Money transferred or deposited for the purposes of this subdivision is continuously appropriated to, and available for expenditure by, the department for the purposes for which it is appropriated, contributed, or made available, without regard to fiscal years and irrespective of the provisions of Section 13340 of the Government Code. (c) As used in this article, “fund” means the Parks Project Revolving Fund.
