In addition to its other powers, the commission may enter into interim financing and loan agreements with any owner or owners to loan the proceeds of the commission’s interim financing notes to any owner or owners for works or projects authorized by this chapter anywhere within this state and to adopt the necessary resolution therefor, without regard to the limitations, provisions, or requirements of any other law, except those of this chapter. Before any such agreement can be entered into, an agency or instrumentality of the United States government, including the farmers home administration or the old west regional commission, or any agency of this state, including the Bank of North Dakota, must have committed itself to make a grant or loan to such owner or owners. Under this section, the commission may only provide interim financing less than or equal to the federal or state grant or loan commitment on each project and may not apply the proceeds of such notes and financing to any purpose other than expenses allowed by section 61-02-68.1 and the project or works for which the loan agreement is made. Notes authorized by sections 61-02-68.1 through 61-02-68.13 shall not be considered revenue bonds under section 61-02-46, and the proceeds of any such notes shall not be part of any commission fund as enumerated in section 61-02-64, and need not be deposited in the state treasury.
