The weather modification authority may request annually that the board of county commissioners provide funding from revenues derived from its general fund levy for support of the authority and to provide weather modification services. In the year for which the levy is sought, the weather modification authority seeking approval of a property tax levy under this chapter must file with the county auditor, at a time and in a format prescribed by the county auditor, a financial report for the preceding calendar year showing the ending balances of each fund held by the authority during that year. The funding under this section approved by the board of county commissioners must be deposited in the weather modification fund and shall be used only for weather modification activities in conjunction with the state of North Dakota.
