FOREST SERVICE
MAKES INTERIM PAYMENTS TO STATES
WASHINGTON, Oct. 30 -- Interim
and estimated fiscal 2000 payments for each receiving
state are listed in the following table.
The 2000 interim payments do not reflect national
grasslands revenues, which are calculated on a calendar
year basis. These funds are paid to states in the
spring.
The Forest Service pays 25 percent of its revenues
collected from timber sales, grazing, recreation,
minerals and land uses to states in which national
forest lands are located. The funds are used to
finance public schools and roads. Last year, the
states received total payments of more than $208
million.
