SUBSTITUTE HOUSE BILL 1103

Passed Legislature - 2023 Regular Session
State of Washington
68th Legislature
2023 Regular Session
ByHouse Transportation (originally sponsored by Representatives Fey, Barkis, and Wylie)
READ FIRST TIME 01/24/23.
AN ACT Relating to avoiding interest arbitrage charges on bond proceeds in the capital vessel replacement account; amending 2022 c 186 s 406 (uncodified); creating a new section; and declaring an emergency.
BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF WASHINGTON:
NEW SECTION.  Sec. 1. The legislature finds that delays in the procurement process for acquiring additional ferry boat vessels have correspondingly delayed the time frame in which the proceeds of bonds issued for that purpose may be spent from the capital vessel replacement account. The legislature further finds that, absent timely legislative action, the state may incur internal revenue service arbitrage rebate liability as a result of an inability to expend the bond proceeds in a timely manner. It is the intent of the legislature to repurpose the use of the bond proceeds to allow the department of transportation to spend the funds within internal revenue service timelines.
Sec. 2. 2022 c 186 s 406 (uncodified) is amended to read as follows:
