The above appropriations are to be expended in accordance with
the provisions of chapters seventeen and seventeen-c of the Code of

The Commissioner of Highways shall have the authority to
operate revolving funds within the State Road Fund for the

and indirectly in the construction and maintenance of roads and for
the purchase of inventories and materials and supplies.
There is hereby appropriated within the above items sufficient
money for the payment of claims, accrued or arising during this
budgetary period, to be paid in accordance with sections seventeen
and eighteen, article two, chapter fourteen of the Code of West
Virginia.
It is the intent of the Legislature to capture and match all

excess of those appropriated be required for the purposes of
Appalachian programs, funds in excess of the amount appropriated may be made available upon recommendation of the commissioner and
approval of the Governor. Further, for the purpose of Appalachian
programs, funds appropriated to line items may be transferred to
other line items upon recommendation of the commissioner and
approval of the Governor.
The purpose of this supplemental appropriation bill is to
supplement, amend, decrease, increase and add items of
appropriation in the aforesaid account for the designated spending
unit for expenditure during the fiscal year ending June 30, 2009.
