Description:
The federal government owns and manages 49 percent of Wyoming lands. Federal lands are not subject to property taxes that support county governments and education, yet local communities play an important role in supporting the management of federal lands. In 1976, Congress authorized federal land-management agencies to share income with states and counties and provided a payment in lieu of taxes (PILT) program to help offset the loss of tax revenue that would otherwise have gone to the counties. The 2007 PILT payments to Wyoming counties report the calculations of the payments for each county in the state. The two-page summary explains how the calculations are made and what factors are used to figure the PILT payments including eligible federal acres in the county, the prior year's federal revenue sharing, and the county's population up to the pre-determined ceiling.
