431	extent possible, each agency shall use the following trust funds
432	as described in this subparagraph for day-to-day operations:
433	a.  Operations or operating trust fund, for use as a
434	depository for funds to be used for program operations funded by
435	program revenues, with the exception of administrative
436	activities when the operations or operating trust fund is a
437	proprietary fund.
438	b.  Operations and maintenance trust fund, for use as a
439	depository for client services funded by third-party payors.
440	c.  Administrative trust fund, for use as a depository for

443	against trust funds. Proprietary funds are excluded from the
444	requirement of using an administrative trust fund.
445	d.  Grants and donations trust fund, for use as a
446	depository for funds to be used for allowable grant or donor
447	agreement activities funded by restricted contractual revenue
448	from private and public nonfederal sources.

457
458	To the extent possible, each agency must adjust its internal
459	accounting to use existing trust funds consistent with the
460	requirements of this subparagraph. If an agency does not have
461	trust funds listed in this subparagraph and cannot make such
462	adjustment, the agency must recommend the creation of the
463	necessary trust funds to the Legislature no later than the next
464	scheduled review of the agency's trust funds pursuant to s.
465	215.3206.
466	3.  All such moneys are hereby appropriated to be expended
467	in accordance with the law or trust agreement under which they
468	were received, subject always to the provisions of chapter 216
469	relating to the appropriation of funds and to the applicable
470	laws relating to the deposit or expenditure of moneys in the
471	State Treasury.
472	4.a.  Notwithstanding any provision of law restricting the
473	use of trust funds to specific purposes, unappropriated cash
474	balances from selected trust funds may be authorized by the
475	Legislature for transfer to the Budget Stabilization Fund and
476	General Revenue Fund in the General Appropriations Act.
477	b.  This subparagraph does not apply to trust funds
478	required by federal programs or mandates; trust funds
479	established for bond covenants, indentures, or resolutions whose
480	revenues are legally pledged by the state or public body to meet
481	debt service or other financial requirements of any debt
482	obligations of the state or any public body; the State
483	Transportation Trust Fund; the trust fund containing the net
484	annual proceeds from the Florida Education Lotteries; the
485	Florida Retirement System Trust Fund; trust funds under the
486	management of the State Board of Education or the Board of
487	Governors of the State University System, where such trust funds
488	are for auxiliary enterprises, self-insurance, and contracts,
489	grants, and donations, as those terms are defined by general
490	law; trust funds that serve as clearing funds or accounts for
491	the Chief Financial Officer or state agencies; trust funds that
492	account for assets held by the state in a trustee capacity as an
493	agent or fiduciary for individuals, private organizations, or
494	other governmental units; and other trust funds authorized by
495	the State Constitution.
496	Section 20.  A section of this act that implements a
497	specific appropriation or specifically identified proviso
498	language in the 2009-2010 General Appropriations Act is void if
499	the specific appropriation or specifically identified proviso
500	language is vetoed. A section of this act that implements more
501	than one specific appropriation or more than one portion of
502	specifically identified proviso language in the 2009-2010
503	General Appropriations Act is void if all the specific
504	appropriations or portions of specifically identified proviso
505	language are vetoed.
506	Section 21.  If any other act passed in 2009 contains a
507	provision that is substantively the same as a provision in this
508	act, but that removes or is otherwise not subject to the future
509	repeal applied to such provision by this act, the Legislature
510	intends that the provision in the other act shall take
511	precedence and shall continue to operate, notwithstanding the
512	future repeal provided by this act.
513	Section 22.  If any provision of this act or its
514	application to any person or circumstance is held invalid, the
515	invalidity does not affect other provisions or applications of
516	the act which can be given effect without the invalid provision
517	or application, and to this end the provisions of this act are
518	severable.
519	Section 23.  Except as otherwise expressly provided in this
520	act and except for this section, which shall take effect upon
521	this act becoming a law, this act shall take effect July 1,
522	2009; or, if this act fails to become a law until after that
523	date, it shall take effect upon becoming a law and shall operate
524	retroactively to July 1, 2009.
