shall meet the following requirements:

(1) Obtain a report of energy audit findings from the entity providing
the energy conservation measures containing recommendations concerning
the costs of installation, modifications, or remodeling, including costs
of design, engineering, repairs, and financing; and

(2) The proposal shall guarantee to such governmental unit an amount of
cost savings in energy or operating costs, as defined in section 8.231,
if such installation, modification, or remodeling is performed by that
entity.

2. For purposes of this section, "energy conservation and facility
improvement measure" designed to reduce energy consumption, as defined in

administration's revolving administrative trust fund, general revenue, or
other appropriate fund source. (L. 2004 H.B. 1599)



1. This section shall be known as the "Energy Efficiency
Implementation Act".

2. The office of administration shall identify and cause to be deposited
into the office of administration revolving "Administrative Trust Fund"
created in section 37.005, RSMo, no more than two and one-half percent of
the total cost savings realized as a result of implementing sections
8.231 to 8.237. "Cost savings" shall be defined as expenses eliminated
and future replacement expenditures avoided as a direct result of
implementing sections 8.231 to 8.237. The percentage of cost savings and
the means of calculating such cost savings shall be determined by the
commissioner of administration or his designated agent and shall be set
forth in the performance contract.

subject to all of the provisions of chapter 536, RSMo, and, if
applicable, section 536.028, RSMo. This section and chapter 536, RSMo,
are nonseverable and if any of the powers vested with the general
assembly pursuant to chapter 536, RSMo, to review, to delay the effective
date, or to disapprove and annul a rule are subsequently held
unconstitutional, then the grant of rulemaking authority and any rule
proposed or adopted after August 28, 2005, shall be invalid and void. (L.

1. "Project" for the purposes of this chapter means the labor or
material necessary for the construction, renovation, or repair of
improvements to real property so that the work, when complete, shall be
ready for service for its intended purpose and shall require no other
work to be a completed system or component.

let to the lowest, responsive, responsible bidder or bidders after notice
and publication of an advertisement for five days in a daily newspaper in
the county where the work is located, or at least twice over a period of
ten days or more in a newspaper in the county where the work is located,
and in two daily newspapers in the state which do not have less than

the third state building fund to the third state building trust fund an
amount equal to the aggregate of all such balances. The commissioner
shall maintain such accounts as may be necessary to preserve all balances
so transferred for the benefit of those agencies or entities to which the

contractor determines upon reasonable evidence that the contractor or a
subcontractor engaged to complete work required by the contract hired one
or more aliens who are unauthorized to work in the United States, the
state agency shall order the contractor to cause the discharge of such
unauthorized workers.

2. If upon reasonable evidence the state agency determines that a
contractor or subcontractor has knowingly violated the Immigration Reform
and Control Act of 1986, or its successor statute, in employing aliens
unauthorized to work in the United States, the agency may cause up to
twenty percent of the total amount of the contract or subcontract
performed by the employer of such unauthorized workers to be withheld

Present provisions of law notwithstanding, in the procurement of
architectural, engineering or land surveying services, each agency which
utilizes architectural, engineering or land surveying services shall
encourage firms engaged in the lawful practice of their professions to
annually submit a statement of qualifications and performance data to the
agency. Whenever a project requiring architectural, engineering or land
surveying services is proposed for an agency of the state or political
subdivision thereof, the agency shall evaluate current statements of
qualifications and performance data of firms on file together with those
that may be submitted by other firms regarding the proposed project. In
evaluating the qualifications of each firm the agency shall use the
following criteria:

performing the desired work and negotiate a contract for the project with
the firm selected.

2. For a basis for negotiations the agency shall prepare a written

3. If the agency is unable to negotiate a satisfactory contract with the
firm selected, negotiations with that firm shall be terminated. The
agency shall then undertake negotiations with another of the qualified
firms selected. If there is a failing of accord with the second firm,
negotiations with such firm shall be terminated. The agency shall then
undertake negotiations with the third qualified firm.

4. If the agency is unable to negotiate a contract with any of the
selected firms, the agency shall reevaluate the necessary architectural,
engineering or land surveying services, including the scope and
reasonable fee requirements, again compile a list of qualified firms and
proceed in accordance with the provisions of sections 8.285 to 8.291.

5. The provisions of sections 8.285 to 8.291 shall not apply to any
political subdivision which adopts a formal procedure for the procurement
of architectural, engineering and land surveying services. (L. 1983 H.B.
322 §§ 4, 5, 6)



1. No rule or portion of a rule promulgated under the authority of
this chapter shall become effective until it has been approved by the
joint committee on administrative rules in accordance with the procedures

approved.

4. The committee may, by majority vote of the members, suspend the order
of rulemaking or portion thereof by action taken prior to the filing of
the final order of rulemaking only for one or more of the following
grounds:

(1) An absence of statutory authority for the proposed rule;

(2) An emergency relating to public health, safety or welfare;

(3) The proposed rule is in conflict with state law;

(4) A substantial change in circumstance since enactment of the law upon
which the proposed rule is based.

5. If the committee disapproves any rule or portion thereof, the filing
agency shall not file such disapproved portion of any rule with the
secretary of state and the secretary of state shall not publish in the
Missouri Register any final order of rulemaking containing the
disapproved portion.

designated in the state's budget for such expenditure for the purpose of
securing such debt obligations. Such debt obligations may also be secured
by a covenant of the authority to issue bonds under sections 8.500 to
8.565. The purpose for the issuance of such debt obligations and the
transfer of such moneys shall be to maximize the utilization of
tax-exempt bonds by the authority.

opinion of the authority, are necessary to provide sufficient funds for
achievement of its purposes, the payment of interest on its bonds, the
establishment of reserves to secure the bonds, the costs of issuance of
its bonds, and all other expenditures of the authority incident to and
necessary to carry out its purposes or powers. The bonds are investment

taxing power of the state or any political subdivision of the state, or
create a debt or obligation of the state, or make its debts payable out
of any moneys except those of the authority specifically pledged to such
purpose, and shall exclude from any such pledge those moneys deposited in
the tobacco securitization settlement trust fund.

4. Bonds issued by the authority shall state on their face that they are
special obligations payable both as to principal and interest solely out
of the assets of the authority pledged for their purpose and do not
constitute an indebtedness of the state or any political subdivision of
the state; are secured solely by and payable solely from assets of the
authority pledged for such purpose; constitute neither a general, legal,
or moral obligation of the state or any of its political subdivisions;
and that the state has no obligation or intention to satisfy any
deficiency or default of any payment of the bonds.

5. Any amount pledged by the authority to be received under the master
settlement agreement shall be valid and binding at the time the pledge is
made. Amounts so pledged and then or thereafter received by the authority
shall immediately be subject to the lien of such pledge without any
physical delivery thereof or further act. The lien of any such pledge
shall be valid and binding as against all parties having claims of any
kind against the authority, whether such parties have notice of the lien.
Notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary, the resolution of
the authority or any other instrument by which a pledge is created need
not be recorded or filed to perfect such pledge.

6. The bonds shall comply with all of the following:

(1) The bonds shall be in a form, issued in denominations, executed in a
manner, and payable over terms, not to exceed forty-five years, and with
rights of redemption, as the board prescribes in the resolution
authorizing their issuance;

(2) The bonds shall be fully negotiable instruments under the laws of the
state. The sale of bonds issued pursuant to this section may be completed
on a negotiated or competitive basis, but in no event shall such bonds be
sold for less than ninety-five percent of the par value thereof, plus
accrued interest;

(3) The aggregate costs of issuance of any bonds or other obligations
issued by the authority (excluding insurance or other credit enhancement)
shall not exceed one and one-half percent of the aggregate principal
amount of the bonds, if the aggregate principal amount is equal to or
greater than three hundred million dollars, or two percent of the
aggregate principal amount of the bonds, if the aggregate principal
amount is less than three hundred million dollars. The authority shall
not procure insurance or other credit enhancement for the bonds unless
the underwriter or the authority's financial advisor certifies that the
present value of the premium paid for such insurance or credit
enhancement is less than the present value of the interest expected to be
saved as a result of the insurance or credit enhancement; and

(4) The bonds shall be subject to the terms, conditions, and covenants
providing for the payment of the principal, redemption premiums, if any,
interest which may be fixed or variable during any period the bonds are
outstanding, and other terms, conditions, covenants, and protective
provisions safeguarding payment, not inconsistent with sections 8.500 to
8.565 and as determined by resolution of the board authorizing their
issuance.

7. All banks, bankers, trust companies, savings banks and institutions,
building and loan associations, savings and loan associations, investment
companies, insurance companies and associations, and all executors,
administrators, guardians, trustees, and other fiduciaries legally may
invest any sinking funds, moneys or other funds belonging to them or
within their control in any bonds issued pursuant to sections 8.500 to
8.565. Interest on the authority's bonds shall be exempt from Missouri
taxation in the state of Missouri for all purposes except the state

issued by the authority pursuant to the provisions of sections 8.500 to
8.565 pursuant to a resolution adopted by the affirmative vote of two-
thirds of the members of the board and no other proceedings shall be
required therefor. However, a resolution authorizing the issuance of
bonds may delegate to an officer of the authority the power to negotiate
and fix the details of an issue of bonds by an appropriate certificate of
the authorized officer.

9. The state reserves the right at any time to alter, amend, repeal, or
otherwise change the structure, organization, programs, or activities of
the authority, including the power to terminate the authority, except
that a law shall not be enacted that impairs any obligation made pursuant
to a sales agreement or any contract entered into by the authority with
or on behalf of the holders of the bonds. (L. 2002 S.B. 1191)

1. A tobacco securitization settlement trust fund is established,
separate and apart from all other public moneys or funds of the state,
under the control of the authority. The fund shall consist of moneys paid
to the authority and not pledged to the payment of bonds or otherwise
obligated or any other moneys deposited to the fund by the authority.
Such moneys shall include but are not limited to payments received from
the master settlement agreement which are not pledged to the payment of
bonds or which are subsequently released from a pledge to the payment of
any bonds; payments which, in accordance with any sales agreement with
the state, are to be paid to the state and not pledged to the bonds,
including that portion of the proceeds of any bonds designated for
purchase of a portion of the state's share, which are designated for
deposit in the fund, together with all interest, dividends, and rents on
the bonds; and all securities or investment income and other assets
acquired by and through the use of the moneys belonging to the fund and
any other moneys deposited in the fund. Moneys in the fund are to be used
solely and only as provided in this section, and shall not be used for
any other purpose. Such moneys shall not be available for the payment of
any claim against the authority or any debt or obligation of the
authority.

2. There shall be established within the tobacco securitization
settlement trust fund a "qualified tax-exempt expenditure account" and a
"taxable expenditure account". The net proceeds of all tax-exempt bonds
shall be deposited in the qualified tax-exempt expenditure account. The
net proceeds of all taxable bonds shall be deposited in the taxable
expenditure account. Moneys deposited in the qualified tax-exempt
expenditure account shall be used to pay or reimburse the state for
expenditures which are permissible under federal tax law governing tax-
exempt bonds. Upon such reimbursement or use such moneys shall be
transferred by the authority to the state treasurer for deposit in the
state general revenue fund and applied as provided in subsection 4 of
this section or to such other fund as may be provided by law. Moneys
deposited in the taxable expenditure account shall, upon direction of the
authority, be transferred to the state treasurer for deposit in the state
general revenue fund or to such other fund as may be provided by law.

3. For the purpose of maximizing the amount of tax-exempt bonds to be
issued, the governor or an authorized designee may evidence in writing
the state's intent to finance any state expenditure from the proceeds of
bonds either by directly funding such expenditure or through
reimbursement of amounts originally funded from another source. An
allocation of proceeds of bonds to finance any expenditure originally
funded from another source may be evidenced by a written statement signed
by the governor or an authorized designee. Upon such allocation, the
amount allocated shall be deposited to the general revenue fund of the
state and thereafter may be appropriated for any purpose. The treasurer
of the authority shall act as custodian and trustee of the tobacco
securitization settlement trust fund and shall administer the fund as
directed by the authority. The treasurer of the authority shall do all of
the following: hold, invest and disburse funds; sell any securities or
other property held by the fund and reinvest the proceeds as directed by
the authority, when deemed advisable by the authority for the protection
of the fund or the preservation of the value of the investment;
subscribe, at the direction of the authority, for the purchase of
securities for future delivery in anticipation of future income; and pay
for securities, as directed by the authority, upon the receipt of the
purchasing entity's paid statement or paid confirmation of purchase. Any
sale of securities or other property held by the fund under this
subsection shall only be made with the advice of the board in the manner
and to the extent provided in sections 8.500 to 8.565 with regard to the
purchase of investments.

4. All moneys paid to or deposited in the fund are available to the
authority to be used in accordance with sections 8.500 to 8.565,
including but not limited to all of the following:

(1) For payment of amounts due to the state pursuant to the terms of the
sales agreements entered into between the state and the authority;

(2) For purposes of paying or reimbursing the state for expenditures
which are permissible under federal tax law governing tax-exempt bonds;
provided, such moneys are transferred at the time of such payment or
reimbursement to the state treasurer for deposit in the state general
revenue fund and used by the state treasurer solely to pay the costs of
implementing the program plan;

(3) For transfer to the state general revenue fund for the payment of the
costs of implementing the program plan;

(4) To make interim transfers to the state as provided in subsection 5 of
this section; and

(5) For payment of any other costs other than the payment of bonds
approved by the authority to implement sections 8.500 to 8.565.

5. Prior to disbursement of the moneys in the tobacco securitization
settlement trust fund in accordance with subsection 4 of this section,
the authority shall have the power to transfer moneys in the fund to the
state general revenue fund for the purposes of funding the program plan
on an interim basis, provided the state agrees to reimburse the tobacco
securitization settlement trust fund before the date such moneys are
expected to be expended by the authority.

6. No more than one hundred seventy-five million dollars of the net
proceeds of bonds authorized by sections 8.500 to 8.565 may be applied to
the payment of the costs of the program plan during any fiscal year;
provided, amounts not so applied during a prior fiscal year may be
carried over and applied to costs of implementing the program plan during
the next successive fiscal year. (L. 2002 S.B. 1191)

manager when planning, designing and constructing a building or structure
or when improving, altering or repairing a building or structure.
Construction management services may be used by the public owner in the

When, in the discretion of the public owner, it is determined that
a public works project should be performed with a negotiated contract for
construction management services, such public owner shall advertise and
solicit proposals from qualified construction managers in the following
manner: If the total cost for the erection or construction of any
building or structure or the improvement, alteration or repair of a
building or structure exceeds five hundred thousand dollars, the public
owner shall request and solicit proposals by advertising for ten days in

reached within thirty days the licensing agency may seek review by the
board of public buildings of the proposed occupation, acquisition,
renovation or relocation. The board of public buildings shall refuse to
grant permission to the department, agency or institution to proceed with
the occupation, location, acquisition, renovation or relocation if
location of vending facilities is feasible and not included. The board of
public buildings shall act within thirty days; if it does not, the
