Forest Service Payments to Counties
Author: Bob Goodlatte

ISBN: 9780756707309

Languages : en
Pages : 55
Book Description
Reviews the Fed. 25% payments to counties as required by the act of 1908. Because the Forest Service was the dominant landowner in these communities, and because the communities were powerless to tax the agency, the Gov't. would share 25% of the revenue derived from the forest with the impacted communities. The communities would then use this revenue to finance schools and the local road infrastructure. Now, nearly 100 years later, the Gov't. has defaulted on its fiduciary obligations under the compact. Federal timber sales have plummeted by over 75% from historic averages. The result is now a calamity in our rural schools and communities.

Book Description
"Under the Secure Rural Schools Act, counties with federal lands may elect to receive payments to help stabilize revenues lost because of declining federal timber sales. Under Title III of the act, counties are authorized to use these funds for certain projects related to wildland fire and emergency services on federal lands. Counties received $108 million for Title III projects for fiscal years 2008 through 2011. The act provides oversight roles for the Forest Service and BLM, requiring them to review counties' certification of their Title III expenditures as they determine to be appropriate and to issue regulations to carry out the purposes of the act. GAO examined the (1) actions the agencies have taken to oversee county spending under Title III, (2) consistency of selected counties' expenditures with the act, and (3) extent to which counties have followed Title III's administrative requirements. GAO reviewed agency and county documents and interviewed officials from the Forest Service, BLM, and 42 selected counties."
