  338         215.32 State funds; segregation.—
  339         (2) The source and use of each of these funds shall be as
  340  follows:
  341         (b)1. The trust funds shall consist of moneys received by
  342  the state which under law or under trust agreement are
  343  segregated for a purpose authorized by law. The state agency or
  344  branch of state government receiving or collecting such moneys
  345  shall be responsible for their proper expenditure as provided by
  346  law. Upon the request of the state agency or branch of state
  347  government responsible for the administration of the trust fund,
  348  the Chief Financial Officer may establish accounts within the
  349  trust fund at a level considered necessary for proper
  350  accountability. Once an account is established within a trust
  351  fund, the Chief Financial Officer may authorize payment from
  352  that account only upon determining that there is sufficient cash
  353  and releases at the level of the account.
  354         2. In addition to other trust funds created by law, to the
  355  extent possible, each agency shall use the following trust funds
  356  as described in this subparagraph for day-to-day operations:
  357         a. Operations or operating trust fund, for use as a
  358  depository for funds to be used for program operations funded by
  359  program revenues, with the exception of administrative
  360  activities when the operations or operating trust fund is a
  361  proprietary fund.
  362         b. Operations and maintenance trust fund, for use as a
  363  depository for client services funded by third-party payors.
  364         c. Administrative trust fund, for use as a depository for
  365  funds to be used for management activities that are departmental
  366  in nature and funded by indirect cost earnings and assessments
  367  against trust funds. Proprietary funds are excluded from the
  368  requirement of using an administrative trust fund.
  369         d. Grants and donations trust fund, for use as a depository
  370  for funds to be used for allowable grant or donor agreement
  371  activities funded by restricted contractual revenue from private
  372  and public nonfederal sources.
  373         e. Agency working capital trust fund, for use as a
  374  depository for funds to be used pursuant to s. 216.272.
  375         f. Clearing funds trust fund, for use as a depository for
  376  funds to account for collections pending distribution to lawful
  377  recipients.
  378         g. Federal grant trust fund, for use as a depository for
  379  funds to be used for allowable grant activities funded by
  380  restricted program revenues from federal sources.
  381  
  382  To the extent possible, each agency must adjust its internal
  383  accounting to use existing trust funds consistent with the
  384  requirements of this subparagraph. If an agency does not have
  385  trust funds listed in this subparagraph and cannot make such
  386  adjustment, the agency must recommend the creation of the
  387  necessary trust funds to the Legislature no later than the next
  388  scheduled review of the agency’s trust funds pursuant to s.
  389  215.3206.
  390         3. All such moneys are hereby appropriated to be expended
  391  in accordance with the law or trust agreement under which they
  392  were received, subject always to the provisions of chapter 216
  393  relating to the appropriation of funds and to the applicable
  394  laws relating to the deposit or expenditure of moneys in the
  395  State Treasury.
  396         4.a. Notwithstanding any provision of law restricting the
  397  use of trust funds to specific purposes, unappropriated cash
  398  balances from selected trust funds may be authorized by the
  399  Legislature for transfer to the Budget Stabilization Fund and
  400  General Revenue Fund in the General Appropriations Act.
  401         b. This subparagraph does not apply to trust funds required
  402  by federal programs or mandates; trust funds established for
  403  bond covenants, indentures, or resolutions whose revenues are
  404  legally pledged by the state or public body to meet debt service
  405  or other financial requirements of any debt obligations of the

  417  individuals, private organizations, or other governmental units;
  418  and other trust funds authorized by the State Constitution.
