VEHICLE EMISSIONS INSPECTION PROGRAM FUND ESTABLISHED; USE OF MONEYS (§
46.2-1182.2)

A special nonreverting fund known as the Vehicle Emissions Inspection Program
Fund is hereby established in the state treasury.
		Notwithstanding the provisions of § 2.2-1802, all moneys collected pursuant
to § 46.2-1182.1 shall be paid into the treasury and credited to the Vehicle
Emissions Inspection Program Fund.
		No moneys remaining in the Fund at the end of each fiscal year shall revert to
the general fund, but shall remain in the Fund. Interest earned on such moneys
shall remain in the Fund and be credited to it.
		The Department of Environmental Quality may release moneys from the Fund, on
warrants issued by the State Comptroller, for covering the costs of the
emissions inspection program, including payment to the program coordinator for
contracted services. The moneys in this Fund may also be released for the
purpose of long-term maintenance of air quality and the correction and
prevention of nonattainment status for National Ambient Air Quality Standards
through air quality programs under the direction of the Director. Any remaining
funds shall be remitted for use in transportation maintenance projects so that
such funds generated from localities required to have emissions inspections
pursuant to subsection B of § 46.2-1178 shall have such remaining funds
generated pursuant to § 46.2-1182.1 transferred on an annual basis to the
Northern Virginia Transportation District. Such funds shall be used for
transportation maintenance in the respective locality.
