I'm not sure what the specific bill is, but try this site: http://www.ncleg.net/ http://www.ncleg.net/ You should be able to find the text of any NC legislation there.

It is in the Appropriations Act of 2009 / S202, currently in revision 6: http://www.ncleg.net/Sessions/2009/Bills/Senate/HTML/S202v6.html http://www.ncleg.net/Sessions/2009/Bills/Senate/HTML/S202v6.... See sections 27C.2 and 27C.3.

  The appropriations act? Someone needs to explain modularity to lawmakers.

    If spending and revenues were any further separated, even more US states would be bankrupt.

    From their perspective, hiding stuff like this in large appropriation bills is a feature, not a bug. Sadly.
