THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEVADA, REPRESENTED IN

SENATE AND ASSEMBLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

 

1-1    Section 1. NRS 338.1906 is hereby amended to read as follows:

1-2    338.1906  1.  Upon request by or consultation with an officer or

1-3  employee of the state who is responsible for the budget of a department,

1-4  board, commission, agency or other entity of the state, the appropriate

1-5  energy retrofit coordinator may request the approval of the state board of

1-6  examiners to advertise a request for proposals to retrofit a building, or any

1-7  portion thereof, that is occupied by the department, board, commission,

1-8  agency or other entity, to make the use of energy in the building, or portion

1-9  thereof, more efficient.

1-10  2.  Upon approval of the state board of examiners, the coordinator shall

1-11  prepare a request for proposals for the retrofitting of one or more buildings,

1-12  or any portion thereof, which includes:

1-13  (a) The name and location of the coordinator;

1-14  (b) A brief description of the requirements for the initial audit of the use

1-15  of energy and the retrofitting;


2-1    (c) Where and how specifications of the requirements for the initial

2-2  audit of the use of energy and the retrofitting may be obtained;

2-3    (d) The date and time not later than which proposals must be received

2-4  by the coordinator; and

2-5    (e) The date and time when responses will be opened.

2-6    3.  The request for proposals must be published in at least one

2-7  newspaper of general circulation in the state.

2-8    4.  After receiving the proposals but before making a decision on the

2-9  proposals, the coordinator shall consider:

2-10  (a) The best interests of the state;

2-11  (b) The experience and financial stability of the persons submitting the

2-12  proposals;

2-13  (c) Whether the proposals conform with the terms of the request for

2-14  proposals;

2-15  (d) The prices of the proposals; and

2-16  (e) Any other factor disclosed in the request for proposals.

2-17  5.  The coordinator shall determine the relative weight of each factor

2-18  before a request for proposals is advertised. The weight of each factor must

2-19  not be disclosed before the date proposals are required to be submitted to

2-20  the coordinator.

2-21  6.  After reviewing the proposals, if the coordinator determines that

2-22  sufficient energy could be saved to justify retrofitting the building or

2-23  buildings, or portion thereof, the coordinator shall select the best proposal

2-24  and request the approval of the state board of examiners to award the

2-25  contract. The request for approval must include the proposed method of

2-26  financing the audit and retrofit, which may include an installment contract,

2-27  a shared savings contract or any other contract for a reasonable financing

2-28  arrangement. Such a contract may commit the state to make payments

2-29  beyond the biennium in which the contract is executed, but the interest due

2-30  on any debt created pursuant to this section must be paid at least

2-31  semiannually, payments must be made on the principal at least annually

2-32  and the debt must be fully repaid on or before May 1, 2013.

2-33  7.  Before approving a retrofit pursuant to this section, the state board

2-34  of examiners shall evaluate any projects that would utilize shared savings

2-35  as a method of payment or any method of financing that would commit the

2-36  state to make payments beyond the biennium in which the contract is

2-37  executed to ensure that:

2-38  (a) The amount of energy to be saved will likely justify the cost of the

2-39  retrofit;

2-40  (b) The state is likely to continue to occupy the building for the entire

2-41  period required to recoup the cost of the retrofit in energy savings; and

2-42  (c) The limitation set forth in subsection 9 will not be exceeded.

2-43  8.  Upon approval of the state board of examiners, the coordinator shall

2-44  execute the contract and notify:

2-45  (a) The state board of examiners of the total amount of money

2-46  committed by the contract per year; and

2-47  (b) Each officer or employee who is responsible for the budget of a

2-48  department, board, commission, agency or other entity which occupies a


3-1  portion of a building that will be retrofitted of the amount of money it will

3-2  be required to pay annually for its portion of the retrofit.

3-3    9.  The total amount of money committed beyond the biennium for all

3-4  contracts executed pursuant to this section must not exceed [$5,000,000]

3-5  $15,000,000 at any one time.

3-6    10.  The legislature hereby pledges that a tax will be levied to pay the

3-7  principal and interest on any indebtedness resulting from a contract

3-8  executed pursuant to this section as they become due if the required

3-9  payments will not be made by the entity that executed the contract from its

3-10  budgeted accounts and the proceeds from any such taxes are hereby

3-11  specially appropriated for this purpose.

3-12  11.  NRS 338.1385 does not apply to a project for which a request for

3-13  proposals is advertised and the contract is awarded pursuant to the

3-14  provisions of this section.

3-15  Sec. 2. There is hereby appropriated from the state general fund to the

3-16  State Public Works Board the sum of $14,000,472 to support the board in
