from, the sale or redemption of the securities shall be credited to the 
air operations risk sharing revolving fund.

above, the Secretary of the Department that has incurred the obligation 
shall terminate the risk-sharing revolving fund when the Secretary 
reasonably believes that no additional claims or contributions will be 
received. Amounts in the risk-sharing revolving fund will be 
transferred to the miscellaneous receipts account in the Treasury. Any 
contributions received after termination will also be transferred to 
that account.
