17-493. Livestock compensation fund; exemption

A. The livestock compensation fund is established consisting of federal monies, legislative appropriations from the state general fund, public and private grants and private donations received for the purpose of compensating landowners, lessees and livestock operators for wolf depredation on livestock. Monies in the livestock compensation fund may also be used to compensate landowners, lessees and livestock operators for participation in a pay-for-presence program implemented by the livestock loss board pursuant to section 17-492.

B. The livestock loss board shall administer the livestock compensation fund. Monies in the fund are continuously appropriated. The livestock loss board may accept and spend federal monies, public and private grants, gifts, contributions and devises to assist in carrying out the purposes of this article. These monies do not revert to the state general fund at the end of a fiscal year. Monies in the fund shall be used to supplement, not supplant, monies otherwise appropriated to the department.

C. Monies in the livestock compensation fund are exempt from the provisions of section 35-190 relating to lapsing of appropriations.
