    |
0011|     fiscal year 1999 shall revert to the severance tax bonding fund. 
    |
0012|     If the department of environment has not certified the need for
    |
0013|     the issuance of the bonds by the end of fiscal year 1998, the
    |
0014|     authorization provided in this section shall be void.
    |
0015|       Section 2.  EMERGENCY.--It is necessary for the public
    |
0016|     peace, health and safety that this act take effect immediately.
