The Eastern Idaho Resource Advisory Council (RAC) will hold its second meeting March 11, 2002 to finalize the application form and determine how to solicit projects totaling $70,000. The Eastern Idaho RAC covers those counties in which the Caribou-Targhee National Forest lies. RAC members will formulate recommendations for National Forest Restoration Projects. The recommendations will then be forwarded to the Secretary of Agriculture or the Designated Federal Officer to start the approval process. The Eastern Idaho RAC is one of five statewide, established with the passage of the Secure Rural Schools and Community Self-Determination Act of 2002. The Act gives counties the option of continuing to receive 25 percent of the revenue generated from activities on National Forests such as timber harvest, grazing, and mining, or electing their share of the average of the three highest 25 percent payments made top the state from 1986 through 1999.
