CREATION AND MANAGEMENT OF FUND (§ 62.1-225)

There shall be set apart as a permanent and perpetual fund, to be known as the
&#8220;Virginia Water Facilities Revolving Fund,&#8221; sums appropriated to the
Fund by the General Assembly, sums allocated to the Commonwealth expressly for
the purposes of establishing a revolving fund concept through the Clean Water
Act (33 U.S.C. § 1251 et seq.), as amended from time to time, all receipts by
the Fund from loans made by it to local governments or other entities as
permitted by federal law, all income from the investment of moneys held in the
Fund, and any other sums designated for deposit to the Fund from any source
public or private. The Fund shall be administered and managed by the Authority
as prescribed in this chapter, subject to the right of the Board, following
consultation with the Authority, to direct the distribution of loans or grants
from the Fund to particular local governments or other entities and to establish
the interest rates and repayment terms of such loans as provided in this
chapter. In order to carry out the administration and management of the Fund,
the Authority is granted the power to employ officers, employees, agents,
advisers and consultants, including, without limitation, attorneys, financial
advisers, engineers and other technical advisers and public accountants and, the
provisions of any other law to the contrary notwithstanding, to determine their
duties and compensation without the approval of any other agency or
instrumentality. The Authority may disburse from the Fund its reasonable costs
and expenses incurred in the administration and management of the Fund and a
reasonable fee to be approved by the Board for its management services. The
Authority may provide a portion of that fee to the Department of Environmental
Quality to cover the Department&#8217;s costs and expenses in administering the
construction assistance loan program.
