For the purposes of carrying out this division and Chapter 7.5 (commencing with Section 2700) of Division 3 of the Fish and Game Code, the Director of Finance may authorize the withdrawal from the General Fund of an amount or amounts not to exceed the amount of the unsold bonds which have been authorized to be sold for the purpose of carrying out those provisions. Any amounts withdrawn shall be deposited in the California Wildlife, Coastal, and Park Land Conservation Fund of 1988 or the Wildlife and Natural Areas Conservation Fund, as appropriate. Any money made available under this section shall be returned to the General Fund, plus the interest that the amounts would have earned in the Pooled Money Investment Account, from money received from the sale of bonds which would otherwise be deposited in that fund.

(Added June 7, 1988, by initiative Proposition 70.)
