The statute, as written — Applicability and interpretation
This part shall control all grants made by the foundation. This part shall be liberally construed so as not to hinder or impede the application, receipt, and use of federal moneys that may become available to the State and the foundation. If unanticipated federal moneys not included in the legislature's appropriation to the foundation become available, the foundation, pursuant to chapter 29, may apply for, receive, and expend the federal moneys in accordance with the terms and conditions specified in the applicable federal statutes, regulations, or financial award documents.
