<br />I <br />I <br />f <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />-- <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />I <br />" <br />I <br /> <br />9.7.01 <br /> <br />U.S. Army Corps of Engineers: Section 22 Planning Assistance to States <br />Programs <br /> <br />Funds are a 50/50 cost share. The program is administered through state <br />planning. Eligible projects are given to COE to prepare a cost estimate for <br />preliminary design. The estimate is negotiated with the "customer". The <br />"customer" provides 50 percent cost share in the form of cash. The COE then <br />completes the preliminary design or study. These funds are applicable on an <br />"as-available" basis. <br /> <br />Wallop-Breaux Funds <br /> <br />The program is called Wallop-Breaux, referring to the 1984 amendments to <br />the Dingell-Johnson program and named for its primary spoIL<;ors, Senator <br />Malcolm Wallop (R-WY) and Senator John Breaux (D-LA). Its formal name <br />is the Aquatic Resources Trust Fund, of which part is used for sport-fishing <br />enhancement ($215.3 million, in 1992) and part is used for boating safety in <br />each state ($70 million, in 1992). Wallop-Breaux i<; an example of a user- <br />pays/user-benefits program, where taxes on an activity are strictly reinvested <br />back into the activity's maintenance. <br /> <br />The Internal Revenue Service collects the money and gives it to the U. S. Fish <br />and Wildlife Service. After taking a percentage off the top for administration, <br />the service gives money to each state based on its relative size and the number <br />of resident fishermen. No state receives more than 5 percent of the total, nor <br />less than I percent of the total fund. <br /> <br />To obtain Wallop-Breaux funds, the state sends a proposal to the U, S. Fish <br />and Wildlife Service office in its region. The project must be "substantial in <br />character and design," but there is no requirement that the project directly <br />benefits sport fishermen. In 1991, 32.4 percent went to surveys and research. <br />About half of the 6 percent the service takes pays for the staff that administers <br />the funds. The rest of the $12 million a year in administrative money is used <br />for various special projects. Wallop-Breaux is supposed to be new money for <br />new fishery improvements. But some of the money is being used to replace <br />state funding from licenses and the general treasury. The U, S, Fish and <br />Wildlife Service views itself as simply a conduit of dollars to the states. <br /> <br />Pittman-Robertson - Federal Aid in Wildlife Restoration Act <br /> <br />Funded by an excise tax on angling and hunting equipment, this program <br />helps raise the revenue necessary to fund specific restoration projects by state <br />fish and wildlife agencies. <br /> <br />City of Arden Hills, Minnesota <br />Local Stormwater Management Plan <br /> <br />A-ARDEN0101.00 <br />Page 38 <br />
