In the event of any liability under the above guaranty, such liability
for each county shall be in such proportion as the assessable basis
of that part of either county within the Sanitary District bears to
the assessable basis of the whole of said District.

(&) As to any bonds issued under the provisions of this section
for the purpose of providing funds for the construction, remodelling,
enlargement or replacement of any office or operating building or
buildings, said Commission shall annually determine the amount
necessary to meet the principal and interest requirements of such
bonds, and shall set aside annually for such purpose so much of the
receipts from water service charges, sewer usage charges, house
connection charges and any other charges imposed by the Commis-
sion as the Commission shall determine to be fair and equitable to
be so set aside, and the amounts of such receipts so set aside shall
be deducted from the amount which the Commission has determined
to be necessary to be raised by direct taxation under the provisions
of Section 6 of said Chapter 122 of the Laws of Maryland of 1918,
as amended (said section being also Section 1568 of said Code of
Public Local Laws of Prince George's County (1953 Edition) and
Section 74-33 of said Montgomery County Code (1955 Edition)),
upon certification to the County Council of Montgomery County and
the County Commissioners of Prince George's County.

[(d)] (e) The County Council of Montgomery County or the
Board of County Commissioners of Prince George's County may at
any time in person or by either of their duly authorized agents audit
and examine the books and records of the said Commission. Pro-
vided, however, that such audit or examination shall be without cost
to said Commission.

Sec. 2. And be it further enacted, That if any word, phrase,
clause, sentence or any part or parts of this Act shall be held un-
constitutional by any court of competent jurisdiction, such uncon-
stitutionally shall not affect the validity of the remaining parts of
this Act.

Sec. 3. And be it further enacted, That this Act is hereby de-
clared to be an emergency measure and necessary for the immediate
preservation of the public health and safety, and having been passed
by a yea and nay vote, supported by three-fifths of all of the mem-
bers elected to each of the two Houses of the General Assembly of
Maryland, the same shall take effect from the date of its passage.
