§ 13a-256 — Highway research program.

For each fiscal year, there may be allocated two hundred fifty thousand dollars out of funds available to the commissioner not otherwise specifically allocated, to be used for a continuing joint highway research program. The commissioner and the president of The University of Connecticut may make agreements to establish such controls as may be mutually agreeable for the determination of the research to be undertaken in accordance with such program and to determine their respective responsibilities relative to administration, financing and the publication of findings. If suitable agreements can be entered into prior to the time that allocation of funds for any fiscal year is made, said commissioner may furnish the funds to continue such program from funds next to be allocated. Funds remaining unexpended at the end of each fiscal year shall revert to the unappropriated funds available to the commissioner.
