(1) The Chief Financial Officer may not designate a credit union as a qualified public depository unless, at the time the credit union submits its agreement of contingent liability and its collateral agreement, the credit union submits a signed statement from a public depositor indicating that if the credit union is designated as a qualified public depository, the public depositor intends to deposit public funds with the credit union.
(2) Within 10 business days after the Chief Financial Officer notifies the credit union that the Chief Financial Officer has withdrawn from the collateral agreement, the credit union must return all public deposits that the credit union holds to the public depositor who deposited the funds. The notice provided for in this subsection may be sent to a credit union by regular mail or by e-mail.
