21 SECTION 4. EMERGENCY CLAUSE. It is found and determined by the General
22 Assembly, that funds provided by the General Assembly for the operations of
23 the SAU-Tech are, due to unforeseen circumstances, insufficient for the SAU-
24 Tech to continue to provide essential governmental services; that the
25 provisions of this act will provide the necessary monies for the SAU-Tech to
26 continue such services; and that a delay in the effective date of this Act
27 could work irreparable harm upon the proper administration and provision of
28 essential governmental programs. Therefore, an emergency is hereby declared
29 to exist and this Act being necessary for the immediate preservation of the
30 public peace, health and safety shall be in full force and effect from and
