Fiscal Detail and Notes
This amendment eliminates the provision that required the Governor to pay directly from the State Contingent Account to the capital reserve fund the amount necessary to restore the balance in the Fund to the required amount.  
As amended, this legislation pledges the moral obligation of the State for student loan bonds.  It requires the Finance Authority of Maine to certify to the Governor the amount necessary to restore the balance in the Capital Reserve Fund to no less than the applicable capital reserve requirement and requires the certified amount to be appropriated and paid to the Finance Authority of Maine during that fiscal year.
