23 Announcement

24 Mineral Lease Money Mineral Lease Money Federal Mineral Lease Money is not tax money. Royalties, lease bonuses and rentals* are paid by operators on oil and gas from federal lands to the US government. The state of origin receives 49% of the royalty and bonus payments. Since the early 1990s, Utah counties have received 49% of the amount received by the state. In other words, Duchesne County receives 25% of the royalty and lease bonus payments made to the federal government from federal leases located within the County. 25% County of Origin 12% Total Mineral Lease Money to the Community Impact Board 12% Total Mineral Lease Money to Various State Agencies

25 Mineral Lease Money 25% County of Origin Can t be used in the County General Fund. Set up as a Special Service District #2 to fund the roads in the County. The County received about 9 million in Expect less than half than that for Build a road = 1 million per mile; repair of existing roads. Lessons learned: Better communication with oil companies where they generally plan to drill allows the county to help develop routes that accommodates the public along with putting locations where the companies want them.
