16330
. (a) (1) The State Agency Investment Fund is hereby created within the State Treasury, for the receipt of deposits from state agencies with moneys not currently required by law to be deposited in the Pooled Money Investment Account.
  (2) For purposes of this section, a "state agency" includes any state office, officer, department, division, bureau, board, commission, organization, or agency, including, but not limited to, the University of California, the California State University, the California Community Colleges, and the Judicial Council.
  (b) Each agency that deposits moneys in the fund shall deposit no less than a total of five hundred million dollars ($500,000,000). The total amount of moneys that may be deposited in the fund from all eligible sources shall not exceed, at any point in time, a total of ten billion dollars ($10,000,000,000), or a lesser amount as determined by the Director of Finance, in consultation with the Treasurer.
  (c) The terms and conditions of deposits made into the fund shall be set by the Director of Finance, in consultation with the Treasurer. Those terms shall include, but not be limited to, the size of deposit from a particular state agency, the length of time those moneys shall be held in deposit in the fund, the availability of funds for withdrawal by the state agency depositing the funds, and the annual rate of interest paid on deposits, as described in subdivision (e).
  (d) Moneys held in the fund shall be invested by the Treasurer in investments authorized by Sections 16430 and 16480 through the Pooled Money Investment Account, and notwithstanding any other law, shall be deemed borrowable by the General Fund for cashflow purposes pursuant to Sections 16310 and 16381. Repayment of any of those borrowings shall be considered a priority payment, equivalent to any other loan repayment made from the General Fund to another state fund.
  (e) Notwithstanding any other law, the rate of interest to be paid to the depositors shall be the base apportionment rate based on their pro rata share of the earnings of the Pooled Money Investment Account on a quarterly basis at the end of each quarter plus an enhanced amount. The pro rata share shall be determined by a dollar day participation. The base apportionment rate applied to the dollar day participation in the fund shall be the quarter-to-date average yield of the Pooled Money Investment Account for the current quarter. The enhancement amount paid to depositors in the fund shall be determined by the Director of Finance, in consultation with the Treasurer, and shall be added to the base rate earned by the Pooled Money Investment Account at the time the apportionment is made. The total interest cost described in this subdivision shall not exceed that provided for in paragraph (1) of subdivision (d) of Section 16731.
  (f) Notwithstanding Section 13340, moneys in the fund are hereby continuously appropriated to the Controller for payment of interest expenditures to depositors calculated in accordance with subdivision (e), and return of deposits to depositors according to terms and conditions set by the Director of Finance, in consultation with the Treasurer.
  (g) The Department of Finance shall determine the budget items to be used for the recording and reporting of interest expenditures pursuant to this section.
  (h) Deposits in the fund shall be tracked separately for each participant in the state's accounting system, and shall be deemed to be assets of each participant. These assets shall be reflected as such on the participants' financial statements.
  (i) Actions by the Director of Finance, in consultation with the Treasurer, in implementing and administering the investment program provided for in this section shall be exempt from the provisions of the Administrative Procedure Act (Chapter 3.5 (commencing with Section 11340) of Part 1 of Division 3).
