§831ee — Title 16 Conservation | U.S. Code

Summary

Allows the Tennessee Valley Authority to pay for certain stewardship activities funded by Public Law 104–206 using necessary amounts in fiscal year 1999 and after. The money must come only from TVA sources like nonpower fund balances and investment returns, program savings in power and nonpower areas, suspended bonuses, reduced memberships and contributions, higher nonpower collections (such as user fees), or higher charges to private and public utilities and direct-load customers. These funds may be used even if sections 11, 14, 15, 29 (16 U.S.C. 831j, 831m, 831n, 831bb), other parts of the Tennessee Valley Authority Act, or TVA power bond covenants say otherwise. TVA must also make enough budget savings and revenue changes so the net spending authority and outlays for these stewardship activities are $0 in fiscal year 1999 and thereafter.
