(a) In each fiscal year when the funds then on deposit in the special fund or funds created for retirement of the bonds equal the amount needed to pay all the principal and interest becoming payable on the bonds within the succeeding 12 months and the funds then on deposit in the reserve fund or funds created for the bonds equal the maximum principal and interest becoming due on the bonds in any one year, the severance tax proceeds remaining in the Alabama State Docks Bulk Handling Facility Trust Fund, shall be distributed as provided herein; provided however, that if at the end of any fiscal year of the state, beginning with the fiscal year ending September 30, 1987, the Director of the Alabama State Docks Department shall have notified the Director of Finance in writing, at least five days prior to the close of the fiscal year, that the revenues to be derived by the Alabama State Docks Department from the operations of its coal handling facilities for the then current fiscal year are anticipated to be insufficient to pay the aggregate of (1) the expenses (exclusive of depreciation) incurred in operating and maintaining the facilities during such fiscal year and (2) principal and interest that came due during such fiscal year on those bonds of the Alabama State Docks Department for payment of which the revenues have been pledged (which notification shall specify the amount of the expected deficiency), then the remaining severance tax proceeds shall remain in the Alabama State Docks Bulk Handling Facility Trust Fund. Following the filing of such notification, a report shall be filed by the Director of the Alabama State Docks Department with the Director of Finance within 30 days after the close of such fiscal year, supported by such documentation as may be deemed appropriate by the Director of Finance and attesting to the amount of the actual deficiency, computed as described above, incurred in the operation of the facilities during the immediately preceding fiscal year. Upon receipt of the report and such other documentation from the department as the Director of Finance may specify, the Director of Finance, if satisfied as to the accuracy of the amount of the actual deficiency as reflected in the report and accompanying documentation, shall authorize to be transferred, and to the extent herein provided there is hereby in such event appropriated, to the Alabama State Docks Department an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the actual amount of any deficiency computed as described herein or (ii) the balance contained in the Alabama State Docks Bulk Handling Facility Trust Fund as of the immediately preceding September 30.
