Fiscal Detail and Notes | ||||||
Decreasing the cap placed on the principal amount of bonds that the Maine Educational Loan Authority may have outstanding at one time reduces the pledge of the moral obligation of the state for student loan bonds. However, extending the timeframe that the Authority has to create or establish a capital reserve fund from June 30, 2011 to June 30, 2017 will extend the State's moral obligation for student loan bonds beyond June 30, 2011. |
