On and after May 23, 1908, an amount equal to the annual average of 25 percent of all amounts received for the applicable fiscal year and each of the preceding 6 fiscal years from each national forest shall be paid, at the end of such year, by the Secretary of the Treasury to the State or Territory in which such national forest is situated, to be expended as the State or Territorial legislature may prescribe for the benefit of the public schools and public roads of the county or counties in which such national forest is situated: Provided, That when any national forest is in more than one State or Territory or county the distributive share to each from the proceeds of such forest shall be proportional to its area therein. In sales of logs, ties, poles, posts, cordwood, pulpwood, and other forest products the amounts made available for schools and roads by this section shall be based upon the stumpage value of the timber. Beginning October 1, 1976, the term “moneys received” shall include all collections under the Act of June 9, 1930, and all amounts earned or allowed any purchaser of national forest timber and other forest products within such State as purchaser credits, for the construction of roads on the National Forest Transportation System within such national forests or parts thereof in connection with any Forest Service timber sales contract. The Secretary of Agriculture shall, from time to time as he goes through his process of developing the budget revenue estimates, make available to the States his current projections of revenues and payments estimated to be made under the Act of May 23, 1908, as amended, or any other special Acts making payments in lieu of taxes, for their use for local budget planning purposes.

Section 471(b) of this title, referred to in text, was re-

CODIFICATION
Section is a combination provision the basis for
which is Act Mar. 4, 1907, which superseded previous
provisions relating to the disposal of money received
from sale of products or use of any land or resources of
the forest reserves, contained in Act Feb. 1, 1905, ch.
288, § 5, 33 Stat. 628.
Act Mar. 4, 1911, is the source of the last portion of
the section beginning with the words, ‘‘and also so
much as may be necessary,’’ etc. That Act provides
that so much of the former Act ‘‘which provides for re-
funds by the Secretary of Agriculture to depositors of
moneys to secure the purchase price of timber or the
use of lands or resources of the national forests such
sums as may be found to be in excess of the amounts
found actually due the United States, be, and is hereby,
amended hereafter to appropriate and to include so
much;’’.
The words of this section reading, ‘‘including moneys
received from sale of products from or use of lands in
national forests created under section 471(b) of this
title’’ were derived from the fourth sentence of section
9 of Act of June 7, 1924, which reads as follows: ‘‘All re-
ceipts from the sale of products from or for the use of
lands in such national forests shall be covered into the
Treasury as miscellaneous receipts, forest reserve fund,
and shall be disposed of in like manner as the receipts
from other national forests as provided by existi
