  270  contractual penalty of up to $1,000 per day to be imposed for
  271  failure to meet project completion dates if state funding is
  272  available. Any such penalty shall be deposited into the State
  273  Transportation Trust Fund and used for seaport security
  274  operations and capital improvements.

  473  investigation reimbursement, an expedited approval procedure
  474  shall be established for rapid disbursement of funds in violent
  475  crime emergency situations.
  476         (c) As used in this section, “significant criminal gang
  477  investigative efforts” eligible for proactive funding must
