    Sec. 1.  RCW 43.88.150 and 1991 c 284 s 3 are each amended to read as follows:

    (1) For those agencies that make expenditures from both appropriated and nonappropriated funds for the same purpose, the governor shall direct such agencies to charge their expenditures in such ratio, as between appropriated and nonappropriated funds, as will conserve appropriated funds.  This subsection does not apply to institutions of higher education, as defined in RCW 28B.10.016.

    (2) Unless otherwise provided by law, if state moneys are appropriated for a capital project and matching funds or other contributions are required as a condition of the receipt of the state moneys, the state moneys shall be disbursed in proportion to and only to the extent that the matching funds or other contributions have been received and are available for expenditure.

    (3) The office of financial management shall adopt guidelines for the implementation of this section.  The guidelines may account for federal matching requirements or other requirements to spend other moneys in a particular manner.

NEW SECTION. Sec. 2.  This act is necessary for the immediate preservation of the public peace, health, or safety, or support of the state government and its existing public institutions, and shall take effect immediately.
