(b) Funds deposited into the Wyoming education trust fund established pursuant to subsection (a) of this section are intended to be inviolate and constitute a permanent or perpetual trust fund which shall be invested by the state treasurer as authorized under W.S. 9-4-715(a), (d) and (e) and in a manner to obtain the highest return possible consistent with preservation of the corpus. Any interest earned from investment of the corpus of the trust fund shall be credited by the state treasurer into a separate account and distributed in accordance with W.S. 21-22-102.
(c) Until the balance in the account established under subsection (a) of this section reaches fifty million dollars ($50,000,000.00), the governor shall annually recommend to the legislature specific revenue sources for a ten million dollar ($10,000,000.00) appropriation to that account.
