There is hereby created in the state treasury the "Grain Inspection Fee Fund". All fees charged and collected for sampling, inspection, weighing, protein or other chemical analysis, and moisture testing or for additional services of whatever nature consistent with the grain inspection and weighing services of the grain inspection, weighing, and warehousing division provided for in this chapter, shall be paid to the director of revenue and deposited in the state treasury to the credit of the grain inspection fee fund. The money in the grain inspection fee fund, after appropriation, shall be expended upon proper warrants issued by the commissioner of administration for the payment of salaries and expenses, including any fee or payment required for compliance with federal law or regulation, necessary for carrying out the provisions consistent with the grain inspection and weighing services of this chapter. The unexpended balance in the grain inspection fee fund at the end of each fiscal year shall not be transferred to the general revenue fund of the state, and the provisions of section 33.080 relating to the transfer of funds to the general revenue fund of the state by the state treasurer shall not apply to the grain inspection fee fund.
2. The general assembly may, from time to time and as needed, transfer from general revenue to the grain inspection fee fund a sum not to exceed five hundred thousand dollars, each fiscal year, to enable the director to continue operations; provided that, approval for such a transfer is given by the Federal Grain Inspection Service of the United States Department of Agriculture. Nothing contained herein shall be construed as to limit the number of times the general assembly may make such transfers.
3. The state treasurer shall invest all sums in the grain inspection fee fund not needed for current operating expenses in interest-bearing banking accounts or United States government obligations in the manner provided by law. All yield, increment, gain, interest or income derived from the investment of these sums shall accrue to the benefit of, and be deposited within, the state treasury to the credit of the grain inspection fee fund.
