§ 143C-8-8.  When a State agency may increase the cost of a capital improvement project.

Upon the request of the administration of a State agency, the Director of the Budget may, when in the Director's opinion it is in the best interest of the State to do so, increase the cost of a capital improvement project. Provided, however, that if the Director of the Budget increases the cost of a project, the Director shall report that action to the Joint Legislative Commission on Governmental Operations within 30 days. The increase may be funded from gifts, federal or private grants, special fund receipts, or direct capital improvement appropriations to that department or institution.
