There is hereby created and established in the agency asset fund the water

bonds authorized by section 42-1739, Idaho Code.
    The state treasurer is directed to invest all moneys in the account. All

as a cost of the project to be repaid to the fund through repayments
contracted by the board. It shall be the duty of the board to specify such
repayment provisions without regard to the source of funding of the project.
