BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF WASHINGTON:

PART I
SHORT TITLE

NEW SECTION.  Sec. 101   This act shall be known as the 2012 jobs now act.

PART II
BOND AUTHORIZATION

NEW SECTION.  Sec. 201   For the purpose of providing funds to finance the projects described and authorized by the legislature in the capital and operating appropriations acts for the 2011-2013 fiscal biennium, and all costs incidental thereto, the state finance committee is authorized to issue general obligation bonds of the state of Washington in the sum of five hundred five million four hundred sixty-six thousand dollars, or as much thereof as may be required, to finance these projects and all costs incidental thereto. Bonds authorized in this section may be sold at such price as the state finance committee shall determine. No bonds authorized in this section may be offered for sale without prior legislative appropriation of the net proceeds of the sale of the bonds.

NEW SECTION.  Sec. 202   (1) The proceeds from the sale of the bonds authorized in section 201 of this act shall be deposited in the state building construction account created by RCW 43.83.020. The proceeds shall be transferred as follows:
     (a) Four hundred eighty million forty-five thousand dollars to remain in the state building construction account created by RCW 43.83.020;
     (b) Twenty million four hundred sixteen thousand dollars to the state taxable building construction account. All receipts from taxable bond issues are to be deposited into the account. If the state finance committee deems it necessary or advantageous to issue more than the amount specified in this subsection (b) as taxable bonds in order to comply with federal internal revenue service rules and regulations pertaining to the use of nontaxable bond proceeds or in order to reduce the total financing costs for bonds issued, the proceeds of such additional taxable bonds shall be transferred to the state taxable building construction account in lieu of any transfer otherwise provided by this section. If the state finance committee determines that a portion of the amount specified in this subsection (b) as taxable bonds may be issued as nontaxable bonds in compliance with federal internal revenue service rules and regulations pertaining to the use of nontaxable bond proceeds, then such bond proceeds shall be transferred to the state building construction account in lieu of the transfer to the state taxable building construction account otherwise provided by this subsection (b). The state treasurer shall submit written notice to the director of financial management if it is determined that any such additional transfer to the state taxable building construction account is necessary or that a transfer from the state taxable building construction account to the state building construction account may be made. Moneys in the account may be spent only after appropriation.
     (2) These proceeds shall be used exclusively for the purposes specified in this section and for the payment of expenses incurred in the issuance and sale of the bonds issued for the purposes of this section, and shall be administered by the office of financial management subject to legislative appropriation.

NEW SECTION.  Sec. 203   (1) The debt-limit general fund bond retirement account shall be used for the payment of the principal of and interest on the bonds authorized in section 202(1) of this act.
     (2) The state finance committee shall, on or before June 30th of each year, certify to the state treasurer the amount needed in the ensuing twelve months to meet the bond retirement and interest requirements on the bonds authorized in section 202(1) of this act.
     (3) On each date on which any interest or principal and interest payment is due on bonds issued for the purposes of section 202(1) of this act, the state treasurer shall withdraw from any general state revenues received in the state treasury and deposit in the debt-limit general fund bond retirement account an amount equal to the amount certified by the state finance committee to be due on the payment date.

NEW SECTION.  Sec. 204   (1) Bonds issued under sections 201 through 203 of this act shall state that they are a general obligation of the state of Washington, shall pledge the full faith and credit of the state to the payment of the principal thereof and the interest thereon, and shall contain an unconditional promise to pay the principal and interest as the same shall become due.
     (2) The owner and holder of each of the bonds or the trustee for the owner and holder of any of the bonds may by mandamus or other appropriate proceeding require the transfer and payment of funds as directed in this section.

NEW SECTION.  Sec. 205   The legislature may provide additional means for raising moneys for the payment of the principal of and interest on the bonds authorized in section 201 of this act, and sections 202 and 203 of this act shall not be deemed to provide an exclusive method for the payment.

PART III
APPROPRIATIONS--GENERAL GOVERNMENT

NEW SECTION.  Sec. 301   FOR THE DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE
     Energy Efficiency Grants for Local Governments (91000241)

     The appropriation in this section is subject to the following conditions and limitations:
     (1) The appropriation in this section is provided solely for grants to local agencies for operational cost savings improvements to local agency facilities and related projects that result in energy and operational cost savings. Related projects are those projects that must be completed in order for the energy efficiency improvements to be effective. Grants may also be used for loan interest payments over the term of a loan.
     (2) The community services and housing division within the department of commerce, in consultation with the department of enterprise services, and the Washington State University energy program shall establish a competitive process to solicit and evaluate applications from local agencies. Final grant awards shall be determined by the department of commerce.
     (3) For the purposes of this section:
     (a) "Cost-effectiveness" means that the present value to the local agency of the energy reasonably expected to be saved or produced by a facility, activity, measure, or piece of equipment over its useful life, including any compensation received from a utility or the Bonneville power administration, is greater than the net present value of the costs of implementing, maintaining, and operating such facility, activity, measure, or piece of equipment over its useful life, when discounted at the cost of public borrowing.
     (b) "Energy equipment" means energy management systems and any equipment, materials, or supplies that are expected, upon installation, to reduce the energy use or energy cost of an existing building or facility, and the services associated with the equipment, materials, or supplies, including, but not limited to, design, engineering, financing, installation, project management, guarantees, operations, and maintenance. Reduction in energy use or energy cost may also include reductions in the use or cost of water, wastewater, or solid waste.
     (c) "Energy cost savings" means savings realized in expenses for energy use and expenses associated with water, wastewater, or solid waste systems.
     (d) "Energy savings performance contracting" means the process authorized by chapter 39.35C RCW by which a company contracts with a local agency to conduct energy audits and guarantee energy savings from energy efficiency.
     (e) "Operational cost savings" means savings realized from parts, service fees, capital renewal costs, and other measurable annual expenses to maintain and repair systems. This definition does not mean labor savings related to existing facility staff.
     (f) "Public facilities" means buildings, building components, and major equipment or systems owned by local agencies.
     (g) "Local agency" means any city and any town, county, special district, municipal corporation, agency, port district or authority, or political subdivision of any type, or any other entity or authority of local government in corporate form or otherwise.
     (4) Grants must be awarded in competitive rounds, based on demand and capacity, with at least ten percent of each competitive grant round awarded to small cities or towns with a population of fewer than five thousand residents.
     (5) In order to be eligible for energy efficiency grants under this section, applicants must complete an investment grade audit, or an equivalent, prior to submitting an application for funding.
     (6) Within each competitive round, projects must be weighted and prioritized based on the following criteria and in the following order:
     (a) Leverage ratio: In each round, the higher the leverage ratio of nonstate funding sources to state grant, the higher the project ranking.
     (b) Energy savings: In each round, the higher the energy savings, the higher the project ranking. Applicants must submit documentation that demonstrates energy and operational cost savings resulting from the installation of the energy equipment and improvements. The energy savings analysis shall be performed by a licensed engineer, and the documentation must include but is not limited to the following:
     (i) A description of the energy equipment and improvements; and
     (ii) A description of the energy and operational cost savings.
     (c) Expediency of expenditure: Project readiness to spend funds must be prioritized so that the legislative intent to expend funds quickly is met.
     (7) Projects that do not use energy savings performance contracting must: (a) Verify energy and operational cost savings for ten years or until the energy and operational costs savings pay for the project, whichever is shorter; (b) follow the department of enterprise services energy savings performance contracting project guidelines; and (c) employ a licensed engineer for the energy audit and construction. The department of commerce may require third-party verification of savings if a project is not implemented by an energy savings performance contractor selected by the department of enterprise services through the request of qualifications process. Third-party verification must be conducted either by an energy savings performance contractor selected by the department of enterprise services through a request for qualifications, a licensed engineer that is a certified energy manager, or a project resource conservation manager.
     (8) To intensify competition, the department of commerce may only award funds to the top eighty-five percent of projects applying in a round until the department of commerce determines a final round is appropriate. Projects that do not receive a grant award in one round may reapply in subsequent rounds.
     (9) Grant amounts awarded to each project must allow for the maximum number of projects funded with the greatest energy and cost benefit.
     (10) The department of commerce may charge projects administrative fees and may pay the department of enterprise services, and the Washington State University energy program administration fees in an amount determined through a memorandum of understanding.
     (11) The department of commerce and the department of enterprise services must submit a joint report to the appropriate committees of the legislature and the office of financial management on the timing and use of the grant funds, program administrative function, compliance with apprenticeship utilization requirements in RCW 39.04.320, compliance with prevailing wage requirements, and administration fees by the end of each fiscal year, until the funds are fully expended and all savings verification requirements are fulfilled.

PART VII
MISCELLANEOUS

NEW SECTION.  Sec. 701   (1) Allotments for appropriations in this act shall be provided in accordance with expedited capital project review requirements adopted by the office of financial management.
     (2) Each project is defined as proposed in the legislative budget notes or in the governor's budget document.

NEW SECTION.  Sec. 702   (1) To ensure minor works appropriations are carried out in accordance with legislative intent, funds appropriated in this act shall not be allotted until project lists are on file at the office of financial management, the house of representatives capital budget committee, and the senate ways and means committee. All projects must meet the criteria included in subsection (2)(a) of this section. Revisions to the lists must be filed with the office of financial management, the house of representatives capital budget committee, and the senate ways and means committee and include an explanation of variances from the prior lists before funds may be expended on the revisions.
     (2)(a) Minor works projects are single line appropriations that include multiple projects of a similar nature and that are valued between $25,000 and $1,000,000 each, with the exceptions of: (i) Higher education minor works projects that may be valued up to $2,000,000; and (ii) department of fish and wildlife minor works projects funded in this act that may be valued up to $3,200,000. These projects can generally be completed within two years of the appropriation with the funding provided. Except for department of fish and wildlife minor works projects funded in this act, agencies are prohibited from including projects on their minor works lists that are a phase of a larger project, and that if combined over a continuous period of time, would exceed $1,000,000, or $2,000,000 for higher education minor works projects. Improvements for accessibility in compliance with the Americans with disabilities act may be included in any of the above minor works categories.
     (b) Minor works appropriations shall not be used for, among other things: Studies, except for technical or engineering reviews or designs that lead directly to and support a project on the same minor works list; planning; design outside the scope of work on a minor works list; moveable, temporary, and traditionally funded operating equipment not in compliance with the equipment criteria established by the office of financial management; software not dedicated to control of a specialized system; moving expenses; land or facility acquisition; or to supplement funding for projects with funding shortfalls unless expressly authorized elsewhere in this act. The office of financial management may make an exception to the limitations described in this subsection (2)(b) for exigent circumstances after notifying the legislative fiscal committees and waiting ten days for comments by the legislature regarding the proposed exception.
     (c) Minor works preservation projects may include program improvements of no more than twenty-five percent of the individual minor works preservation project cost.
     (3) It is generally not the intent of the legislature to make future appropriations for capital expenditures or for maintenance and operating expenses for an acquisition project or a significant expansion project that is initiated through the minor works process and therefore does not receive a policy and fiscal analysis by the legislature. Minor works projects are intended to be one-time expenditures that do not require future state resources to complete.

NEW SECTION.  Sec. 703   (1) The office of financial management may authorize a transfer of appropriation authority provided for a capital project that is in excess of the amount required for the completion of such project to another capital project for which the appropriation is insufficient. No such transfer may be used to expand the capacity of any facility beyond that intended in making the appropriation. Such transfers may be effected only between capital appropriations to a specific department, commission, agency, or institution of higher education and only between capital projects that are funded from the same fund or account. No transfers may occur between projects to local government agencies except where the grants are provided within a single omnibus appropriation and where such transfers are specifically authorized by the implementing statutes that govern the grants.
     (2) The office of financial management may find that an amount is in excess of the amount required for the completion of a project only if: (a) The project as defined in the notes to the budget document is substantially complete and there are funds remaining; or (b) bids have been let on a project and it appears to a substantial certainty that the project as defined in the notes to the budget document can be completed within the biennium for less than the amount appropriated in this act.
     (3) For the purposes of this section, the intent is that each project be defined as proposed to the legislature in the governor's budget document, unless it clearly appears from the legislative history that the legislature intended to define the scope of a project in a different way.
     (4) The office of financial management shall report any transfer effected under this section to the house of representatives capital budget committee, the senate ways and means committee, and the legislative evaluation and accountability program committee, at least thirty days before the date the transfer is effected. The office of financial management shall report all emergency or smaller transfers within thirty days from the date of transfer. The governor's capital budget request following any transfer shall reflect that transfer in the affected agency.

NEW SECTION.  Sec. 704   (1) It is expected that projects be ready to proceed in a timely manner depending on the type or phase of the project or program that is the subject of the appropriation in this act. Except for major projects that customarily may take more than two biennia to complete from predesign to the end of construction, or large infrastructure grant or loan programs supporting projects that often take more than two biennia to complete, the legislature generally does not intend to reappropriate funds more than once, particularly for smaller grant programs, local/community projects, and minor works.
     (2) Agencies shall expedite the expenditure of reappropriations and appropriations in this act in order to: (a) Rehabilitate infrastructure resources; (b) accelerate environmental rehabilitation and restoration projects for the improvement of the state's natural environment; (c) reduce additional costs associated with acquisition and construction inflationary pressures; and (d) provide additional employment opportunities associated with capital expenditures.
     (3) To the extent feasible, agencies are directed to accelerate expenditure rates at their current level of permanent employees and shall use contracted design and construction services wherever necessary to meet the goals of this section.

NEW SECTION.  Sec. 705   FOR THE ARTS COMMISSION--ART WORK ALLOWANCE POOLING
     (1) One-half of one percent of moneys appropriated in this act for original construction of school plant facilities may be expended for the purposes of RCW 28A.335.210. The Washington state arts commission may combine the proceeds from individual projects in order to fund larger works of art or mobile art displays in consultation with the superintendent of public instruction and representatives of school district boards.
     (2) One-half of one percent of moneys appropriated in this act for original construction or any major renovation or remodel work exceeding two hundred thousand dollars by colleges or universities may be expended for the purposes of RCW 28B.10.027. The Washington state arts commission may combine the proceeds from individual projects in order to fund larger works of art or mobile art displays in consultation with the board of regents or trustees.
     (3) At least eighty-five percent of the moneys spent by the Washington state arts commission during the 2011-2013 biennium for the purposes of RCW 28A.335.210, 28B.10.027, and 43.17.200 must be expended solely for direct acquisition of works of art. The commission may use up to $100,000 of this amount to conserve or maintain existing pieces in the state art collection pursuant to chapter 36, Laws of 2005.

NEW SECTION.  Sec. 706   CODIFICATION. Sections 201 through 205 of this act constitute a new chapter in Title 43 RCW.

NEW SECTION.  Sec. 707   SEVERABILITY. If any provision of this act or its application to any person or circumstance is held invalid, the remainder of the act or the application of the provision to other persons or circumstances is not affected.

NEW SECTION.  Sec. 708   EFFECTIVE DATE. 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 takes effect immediately.
