The revolving fund shall be deposited with the State Treasurer to be held in a special account against which the department may draw checks.
(2) The revolving fund may be used by the department for the purpose of making loans to any adult in custody enrolled in the work release program under ORS 144.410 to 144.525, at a rate of interest prescribed by the department, to pay costs of necessary clothing, tools, transportation and other items from the time of initial enrollment to the time the adult in custody receives sufficient income to repay the loan. A loan from the revolving fund shall be made only when other resources available to the enrollee to pay the costs described in this subsection are inadequate.
