DESCRIPTION: These records contain the documentation and county elections that are used to calculate and distribute counties' annual Payment In Lieu of Taxes (PILT) payments received from the Federal Government. These records also document the entity's function to communicate with each county about which of two laws they have elected to receive funds under, the Secure Rural Schools Act or the 1908 Act, as well as how each county would like to allocate their funds between Title I, Title II and Title III. The elections are compiled and submitted by the entity to the National Forest Service as requested, and supporting documentation is saved when the payments are distributed annually. These records also contain the documentation to support the receipt and distribution of the monthly mineral lease funds sent to the entity by the Bureau of Land Management.
