Section 63049.72.
Cal. Government Code - GOV § 63049.72.
in effect(a)
The financing of projects related to Chapter 9 (commencing with Section 94500) of Division 50 of the Public Resources Code shall be deemed to be in the public interest and eligible for financing by the bank or by a special purpose trust established pursuant to this division. That financing shall be treated as financing of an economic development facility for purposes of this division, except that Article 3 (commencing with Section 63040) and Article 5 (commencing with Section 63043) shall not apply to any financing under this article. The bank shall consider an eligible transmission project for financing upon filing of an application by an appropriate participating party following the selection of the project by the accelerator. The review may be concurrent with the Public Utilities Commission’s
processing of an application for the pertinent financing. Nothing in this division grants the bank authority over matters that are within the jurisdiction of the Public Utilities Commission.
(b)
The bank may provide any form of financial assistance, including issuing bonds pursuant to Chapter 5 (commencing with Section 63070), and may loan the proceeds of those bonds, deposit the proceeds into a separate account in the California Transmission Accelerator Revolving Fund, or use the proceeds to refund bonds previously issued under this article. Bond proceeds may also be used to fund necessary reserves, capitalized interest, credit enhancement costs, or costs of issuance.
(c)
Bonds issued under this article shall not be deemed to constitute a debt or liability of the state or of any political subdivision thereof or a pledge of the faith and credit of the state or of any political
subdivision, other than the bank, but shall be payable solely from either or both the California Transmission Accelerator Revolving Fund or other revenues and assets securing the bonds. All bonds issued under this article shall contain on the face of the bonds a statement to that effect.
