Nevada Revised Statutes Section 209.192 - Correctional Institutions

Fund for New Construction of Facilities for Prison Industries.

1. There is hereby created in the State Treasury a Fund for New Construction of Facilities for Prison Industries as a capital projects fund. The Director shall deposit in the Fund the deductions made pursuant to paragraph (c) of subsection 1 or paragraph (b) of subsection 2 of NRS 209.463. The money in the Fund must only be expended to house new industries or expand existing industries in the industrial program to provide additional employment of offenders. The money in the Fund must not be expended for relocating an existing industry in the industrial program unless the existing industry is being expanded to provide additional employment of offenders.

2. Before money in the Fund may be expended for construction, the Director shall submit a proposal for the expenditure to the State Board of Examiners. Upon making a determination that the proposed expenditure is appropriate and necessary, the State Board of Examiners shall recommend to the Interim Finance Committee, or the Senate Standing Committee on Finance and the Assembly Standing Committee on Ways and Means when the Legislature is in general session, that the expenditure be approved. Upon approval of the appropriate committee or committees, the money may be so expended.

3. The interest and income earned on the money in the Fund, after deducting any applicable charges, must be credited to the Fund.
