Article 2. Public Health Federal Fund of California Health And Safety Code >> Division 101. >> Part 1. >> Chapter 3. >> Article 2.
The Public Health Federal Fund in the State Treasury is
hereby created. All grants of money received by the state from the
United States, the expenditure of which is administered through or
under the direction of the department, shall, on order of the
Controller, be deposited in the Public Health Federal Fund.
All money in the Public Health Federal Fund is hereby
appropriated to the department, without regard to fiscal years, for
expenditure for the purposes for which the money deposited therein is
made available by the United States.
The department and the Controller shall keep a record of
the classes and sources of income deposited in, or transferred to,
the Public Health Federal Fund, and of the disbursements and
transfers therefrom.
The Director of Finance and the Controller may approve any
general plan that meets the following requirements:
(a) Any expenditures that are a proper charge against the money
made available by the United States and deposited in the Public
Health Federal Fund may be paid in the first instance from any
appropriation from the General Fund, expenditures from which are
administered through or under the direction of the department.
(b) Any expenditures that are a proper charge against an
appropriation from any special fund in the State Treasury,
expenditures from which are administered through or under the
direction of the department, may be paid in the first instance from
any appropriation from the General Fund, expenditures from which are
administered through or under the direction of the department.
(c) The General Fund shall be reimbursed for expenditures made
therefrom that are a proper charge against the Public Health Federal
Fund or against any appropriation from any special fund.
Such a general plan may provide for advance transfers from the
Public Health Federal Fund to the General Fund, based on estimates of
expenditures that will be subject to reimbursement from the Public
Health Federal Fund pursuant to the plan, and may provide for
reimbursements to the Public Health Federal Fund, when necessary.
Request for reimbursement or transfer pursuant to the plan shall
be furnished to the Controller in writing by the department,
accompanied by financial statements as the plan may provide; and on
order of the Controller, the required amount shall be transferred in
accordance with the plan.
