The Governor may, at any time, convene a board of survey to condemn quartermaster and ordnance stores and supplies, or to appraise the loss sustained by the state from injury, want of repair, defects, or losses in any such quartermaster or ordnance stores issued to any officer of the National Guard. The board, after reasonable notice to the officer and hearing the officer’s explanations or objections, shall appraise the property and make a report. The amount so appraised, if approved by the Governor, is conclusively deemed the amount of the officer’s liability. The officer shall pay the amount into the state treasury, and the payments shall be deposited in a special fund known as the lost military property fund. The fund is available at all times for purchase by the quartermaster general, subject to the approval of the Governor, of any military property needed to replace that lost or destroyed.
