the sources identified in subsection (2) of this section must be
deposited into the account. Moneys in the account may be spent only
after appropriation. Expenditures from the account may be used only as
identified in subsection (4) of this section.
(2) The following receipts must be deposited into the cleanup
settlement account:
(a) Receipts from settlements or court orders that direct payment
to the account and resolve a person's liability or potential liability
under this chapter for either or both of the following:
(i) Conducting future remedial action at a specific facility, if it
is not feasible to require the person to conduct the remedial action
based on the person's financial insolvency, limited ability to pay, or

(ii) Assessing or addressing the injury to natural resources caused
by the release of a hazardous substance from a specific facility; and
(b) Receipts from investment of the moneys in the account.
(3) If a settlement or court order does not direct payment of
receipts described in subsection (2)(a) of this section into the
cleanup settlement account, then the receipts from any payment to the
state must be deposited into the state toxics control account.
(4) Expenditures from the cleanup settlement account may only be
used to conduct remedial actions at the specific facility or to assess
or address the injury to natural resources caused by the release of
hazardous substances from that facility for which the moneys were
deposited in the account. Conducting remedial actions or assessing or
addressing injury to natural resources includes direct expenditures and
indirect expenditures such as department oversight costs.
(5) The department shall track moneys received, interest earned,
and moneys expended separately for each facility.
(6) After the department determines that all remedial actions at a
specific facility, and all actions assessing or addressing injury to
natural resources caused by the release of hazardous substances from
that facility, are completed, including payment of all related costs,
any moneys remaining for the specific facility must be transferred to
the state toxics control account established under RCW 70.105D.070.
