  § 56-0407. Fresh Kills landfill closure project.
    1.    The  commissioner,  in  the  name of the state, may enter into a
  contract with the city of New York for state assistance payments for the
  Fresh Kills landfill closure project.
    2.   After approval  of  an  application,  the  commissioner  and  the
  municipality  shall  enter into a contract for state assistance payments
  toward the cost of  such  project  which  shall  include  the  following
  provisions:
    (a) A current estimate of the cost of the project as determined by the
  commissioner at the time of the execution of the contract.
    (b) An agreement by the commissioner to make state assistance payments
  toward   the  cost  of  the  project  by  periodically  reimbursing  the
  municipality for costs incurred during  the  progress  of  the  project.
  Such  costs  are  subject  to final computation and determination by the
  commissioner upon completion of the  project.    For  purposes  of  this
  subdivision, the approved project cost shall be reduced by the amount of
  any  specific  state  assistance  payments for landfill closure purposes
  received by the municipality from any source;  provided,  however,  that
  non-specific state assistance payments, such as amounts paid pursuant to
  section  fifty-four  of  the state finance law, shall not be included in
  such cost reduction.
    (c)  An agreement by the municipality to  proceed  expeditiously  with
  the  project  and  to  complete the project in accordance with plans and
  reports approved by the department and with the conditions of applicable
  permits, administrative orders or judicial orders.
