Since its initial passage in 2000, the Secure Rural Schools (SRS) and Community Self-Determination Act (“the SRS Act”) has provided Federal funds to over 700 counties across the U.S. and Puerto Rico for three primary purposes in accordance with its three titles: • Title I – Secure Payments for States and Counties containing Federal Land: To stabilize payments to counties to provide funding for schools and roads that supplements other available funds. • Title II - Special Projects on Federal Land: To make additional investments in, and create additional employment opportunities through, projects that improve the maintenance of existing infrastructure, implement stewardship objectives that enhance forest ecosystems, and restore and improve land health and water quality with Federal lands that have traditionally been supported by timber payments. • Title III – County Funds: To stabilize payments to counties to provide funding for schools and roads that supplements other available funds. This Listing Announcement specifically relates to anticipated SRS Act Title II Special Project funding that is administered by the U.S. Department of the Interior’s (DOI) Bureau of Land Management (BLM) to benefit the 2.4 million acres of Federal lands in 18 western Oregon counties that are administered in accordance with the Oregon and California Revested Lands Sustained Yield Management Act of 1937 (“the O&C Act”) and the Coos Bay Wagon Road Act of 1939.
