the aeronautics commissioner to expend funds.
Be it enacted by the Legislature of West Virginia:
That section three-a, article two-a, chapter twenty-nine of
the Code of West Virginia, one thousand nine hundred thirty-one, as
amended, be amended and reenacted, to read as follows:
§29-2A-3a. Expenses of civil air patrol; commission may expend
funds pursuant to rules.
The commission, in addition to all other powers and functions
authorized by law, is hereby authorized and empowered to expend

limited to the purchase of civil air patrol aviation education
training aid books, materials and equipment; (2) to defray maintenance, repair and replacement costs of civil air patrol
aircraft; (3) to purchase and obtain supplies and equipment for the
civil air patrol; and (4) to maintain the communications network
for the civil air patrol.
No expenditure of state funds for any such purposes may be

in accordance with the commission's rules and regulations relating
thereto. Only funds specifically appropriated by the Legislature
for such purposes may be so expended by the commission and funds so
appropriated shall be expended for no other purposes.
