. (a) "Electronic funds transfer" means any transfer of
funds, other than a transaction originated by check, draft, or
similar paper instrument, that is initiated through an electronic
terminal, telephonic instrument, or computer or magnetic tape, so as
to order, instruct, or authorize a financial institution to debit or
credit an account. Electronic funds transfers shall be executed by
one of the following methods:

Banking costs incurred for the automated clearinghouse debit transaction shall be paid by the state.
(2) An automated clearinghouse credit in which the person, through his or her own bank, originates an entry crediting the state's bank account and debiting his or her own bank account. Banking costs incurred for the automated clearinghouse credit transaction charged to the state shall be paid by the person originating the credit.
(3) A Federal Reserve Wire Network transfer (Fedwire) originated by a person utilizing the national electronic payment system to transfer funds through the federal reserve banks, when that person debits his or her own bank account and credits the state's bank account. Electronic funds transfers may be made by Fedwire only if payment cannot, for good cause, be made according to paragraph (1) or (2), and the use of Fedwire is preapproved by the board. Banking costs incurred for the Fedwire transaction charged to the person and to the state shall be paid by the person originating the transaction.
