§2397. Distribution of revenue

            The state treasurer shall each fiscal year deposit the revenues generated under the provisions of this Chapter from taxes applicable to the sale of reclaimed water or other sources as provided for by law into the Bond Security and Redemption Fund. Out of the funds from such sources remaining in the Bond Security and Redemption Fund after a sufficient amount is allocated from that fund to pay all obligations secured by the full faith and credit of the state which become due and payable within any fiscal year, the treasurer shall deposit an amount equal to one-quarter of the revenues generated from the reclaimed water program into the Clean Water State Revolving Fund, enacted in R.S. 30:2301 et seq., which shall be used for making grants to local governments to finance primary waste treatment facilities; one-quarter into the Coastal Resources Trust Dedicated Fund Account, created in R.S. 49:214.40; and the remainder shall be used by the Department of Energy and Natural Resources for the protection of groundwater resources. Use of these funds shall be subject to an appropriation by the legislature.
