Nevada Revised Statutes Title 31. Public Financial Administration § 354.140. Distribution of federal money from forest reserves;  reimbursement for cost of audit

1. The money paid to the State of Nevada by the Secretary of the Treasury under the provisions of 16 U.S.C. § 500, providing for the payment to states and territories of a fixed percentage of the money received by the Government of the United States from the forest reserves established therein, must be distributed respectively to the county or counties in which the forest reserves are situated, to be expended for the benefit of the public schools and the public roads of the county or counties in equal proportion for each object. The proportion for schools must be paid into the county school district fund. If there is a county road fund, the proportion for roads must be paid into the county road fund. If there is no county road fund, the proportion for roads must be paid into the county general fund for public road purposes.

2. When any forest reserve is in more than one state or county, the distributive share to each must be proportional to its area therein, following as near as may be the figures submitted to the State of Nevada respecting net forest area and county acreage therein by the Forest Service, United States Department of Agriculture.

3. The agency which is responsible for completing any audit required for the continuation of the payments must be reimbursed for the cost of the audit from the funds to which the payments were distributed proportionately according to the percentage of the payment which was distributed to each fund.
