Nevada Code § 353.3535

1. If the Director of the State Department
of Conservation and Natural Resources determines that, because of delays in the
receipt of revenue for services billed to the Federal Government, local
governments and other state governments, the amount of current claims for
expenses incurred in the suppression of fires or response to emergencies
exceeds the amount of money available to pay such claims within 30 days, the
Director may request from the Director of the Office of Finance a temporary
advance from the State General Fund.
2. The Director of the Office of Finance
shall provide written notification to the State Controller and to the Senate
and Assembly Fiscal Analysts of the Fiscal Analysis Division of the Legislative

1. The State Controller shall draw his or her warrant upon receipt of such a
notification.
3. Such an advance from the State General
Fund:
(a) May be approved by the Director of the Office
of Finance only for expenses incurred in the suppression of fires or response
to emergencies. Before approving the advance, the Director of the Office of
Finance shall verify that billings for reimbursement have been sent to the
Federal Government, local governments or other state governments responsible
for reimbursing the Division of Forestry for costs incurred in activities
relating to the suppression of fires or response to emergencies.
(b) Is limited to the total amount due from
outstanding billings for reimbursable expenses incurred in the suppression of
fires or response to emergencies as approved for payment to the State by
agencies of the Federal Government, local governments and other state
governments.
