  9    fiscal year 2003, to be used for Aircraft Pool Program costs  for  the  period
 10    July 1, 2003, through June 30, 2004.

 12    directed to transfer $25,000 from the State Highway Fund to  the  Tourism  and
 13    Promotion  Fund  in  the  Department of Commerce during fiscal year 2004. This
 14    transfer will provide the matching fund support of the  Gateway  Visitor  Cen-

 16        SECTION   10.  The   Legislature   herein  restates  its  conviction  that
 17    maximizing highway construction dollars has, and will continue to be, the most
 18    important aspect of the Idaho Transportation Department's budget. In the event
 19    federal funds in excess of those provided for in this bill become available to
 20    the Department during the period July 1, 2003, through June 30, 2004, the Leg-
 21    islature directs the Department to access those funds in a  manner  consistent
 22    with  the  receipt  and  expenditure of noncognizable funding. Further, in the
 23    event revenues to the  Idaho Transportation Department's  State  Highway  Fund
 24    exceed  the  spending  authority  provided  for  in  this act, the Legislature
 25    directs the Department to report to the Joint Finance-Appropriations Committee
 26    on the need for any supplemental spending authority required for  state  funds
 27    necessary to match federal highway funds.
