(a) It is found and determined that the continued operations of the Title XX Services Program of the Department of Human Services, in accordance with the approved annual operations plan, are, from time to time, seriously impaired by either administrative oversights and delays by the Office of Grants Management of the United States Department of Health and Human Services or by the processes of federal fiscal year conversion. It is further found and determined that such delays in the proper preparation and transmittal of federal grant award authorizations and letter of credit instruments have created unnecessary hardships on the providers of services and the needy citizens of this state. Therefore, upon certification of the pending availability of federal funding by the Director of the Department of Human Services, the Chief Fiscal Officer of the State may grant temporary advances, the maximum amount not to exceed five million dollars ($5,000,000), from the Budget Stabilization Trust Fund to the appropriate account of the Department of Human Services so affected by such delays.
(b) The Chief Fiscal Officer of the State shall recover within a period of twenty (20) days such temporary advances upon receipt of the grant award authorizations or letter of credit instruments.
