When a claim is approved, the department shall, as funds become available, order the claim paid from the account.

By presentation of its claim, the railroad company and the public authority consent to make pertinent records showing costs of labor and materials available to the department.

The railroad company or public authority in interest may submit statements for lump-sum reimbursement from the account during and at the completion of the construction, reconstruction or alteration of a crossing, or of the installation or alteration of a grade crossing warning or safety device at a crossing.
