Summary

Payments from timber sales. Limits the payment made to localities by the Department of Forestry to one-fourth of the gross proceeds derived solely from the sale of timber harvested on state forest lands; however, the counties of Appomattox, Buckingham, and Cumberland will receive one-eighth of the gross proceeds from the timber sales on state forest lands located in their county.
