Revised Code of Washington - RCW Title 47 Public Highways And Transportation - Section 47.56.167 Toll collection account

§ 47.56.167. Toll collection account

The toll collection account is created in the custody of the state treasurer. All receipts from prepaid customer tolls must be deposited into the account. Distributions from the account may be used only to refund customers' prepaid tolls or for distributions into the appropriate toll facility account. Distributions into the appropriate toll facility account shall be based on charges incurred at each toll facility and shall include a proportionate share of interest earned from amounts deposited into the account. For purposes of accounting, distributions from the account constitute earned toll revenues in the receiving toll facility account at the time of distribution. Only the secretary of transportation or the secretary's designee may authorize distributions from the account. Distributions of revenue and refunds from this account are not subject to the allotment procedures under chapter 43.88 RCW and an appropriation is not required.
