U.S. Code as of:
01/19/04
Section 582a-3. Matching funds; reapportionment to other qualifying institutions; reductions
The amount paid by the Federal Government to any State-certified
institutions eligible for assistance under this subchapter shall
not exceed during any fiscal year the amount available to and
budgeted for expenditure by such college or university during the
same fiscal year for forestry research from non-Federal sources,
except that for the fiscal years ending June 30, 1971, and June 30,
1972, the matching funds requirement hereof shall not be applicable
to the Virgin Islands and Guam, and sums authorized for such years
for the Virgin Islands and Guam may be used to pay the total cost
of programs for forestry research. The Secretary is authorized to
make such expenditures on the certificate of the appropriate
official of the college or university having charge of the forestry
research for which the expenditures as herein provided are to be
made. If any or all of the colleges or universities certified for
receipt of funds under this subchapter fails to make available and
budget for expenditure for forestry research in any fiscal year
sums at least as much as the amount for which it would be eligible
for such year under this subchapter, the difference between the
Federal funds available and the funds made available and budgeted
for expenditure by the college or university shall be reapportioned
by the Secretary to other eligible colleges or universities of the
same State if there be any which qualify therefor and, it there be
none, the Secretary shall reapportion such differences to the
qualifying colleges and universities of other States participating
in the forestry research program. If in any year the amount made
available by a State from its own funds (including any
revenue-sharing funds) to a State-certified institution eligible
for assistance under this subchapter is reduced because of an
increase in the allotment made available under this subchapter, the
allotment of such State-certified institution from the next
succeeding appropriation shall be reduced in an equivalent amount.
The Secretary shall reapportion the amount of such reduction to
other eligible colleges and universities of the same State if there
be any that qualify therefor and, if there be none, the Secretary
shall reapportion such amount to the qualifying colleges and
universities of other States participating in the forestry research
program.
