that is designated by the state board of land commissioners as being part of a
nonsimultaneous exchange shall be transmitted by the director of the state board
of land commissioners to the state treasurer who shall credit the same to a
separate account in the nonsimultaneous state trust land exchange cash fund,
which fund is hereby created. All interest derived from the deposit and investment
of moneys in the fund shall be credited to the appropriate account in the fund.
Moneys held in the fund shall not be used for the operating expenses of the board
or for expenses incident to the disposition or acquisition of lands. Moneys in the
fund are hereby continuously appropriated to the state board of land
commissioners for the purposes of this section.

purchased at the completion or partial completion of a designated nonsimultaneous
exchange shall be paid for by moneys in the appropriate account in the fund.

nonsimultaneous exchange is completed, but in any event no later than two years
after the sale or other disposition of land designated as part of a nonsimultaneous
exchange, any moneys remaining in a designated account in the fund shall be
credited by the state treasurer to the trust fund maintained by the state treasurer
