(1) On or about January 1 of each year the Department shall estimate the total revenues available for use in the County Park Assistance Program for the next fiscal year. The Department shall use the distribution formula in OAR 736-007-0015 to estimate each county's allocation, and shall notify each county of the estimate.

(2) By July 15 of each year, each county governing body shall certify to the Department, on forms supplied by the Department, that it will comply with the administrative rules governing the County Park Assistance Program. The certification shall include a statement of the county's intended use of the revenues:

(a) The county has budgeted its allocation for expenditure in the next fiscal year; or

(b) The county will place its allocation in a dedicated parks and recreation fund for future expenditure; or

(c) A combination of subsections (a) and (b) of this section; or

(d) The county waives the use of its allocated revenues;

(e) A county may elect to receive less than its allocated revenues in any given fiscal year.

(3) Any county that does not certify by July 15 shall be deemed to have certified in accordance with subsection (2)(d) of this rule.

(4) The Department shall calculate the proportion of total certified allocations to total estimated revenues. This proportion will be used in determining the amount of actual revenues to be distributed to counties each month during the fiscal year.

(5) The distribution to counties that certified acceptance of revenues shall be made within 45 days after the end of each month. The amount shall be determined as follows:

Total actual revenues for month x

Total Certified Allocations

Total Estimated Revenues x

County Certified Allocation

Total Certified Allocations = Distribution

However, the amount distributed each month to Gilliam, Harney, Jefferson, Lake, Sherman, and Wallowa counties shall be at least $834. The effective date for implementing this rule shall re retroactive to July 1, 1994

(6) Revenues allocated for the Assistance Program, but not distributed by this section, shall become available to the Grant Program.

(7) By September 1 of each year, the Depart-ment may ask each county to provide a report on the uses of the RV revenue for the prior fiscal year. The report form will be provided by the Department, along with an explanation of the need for the report.
