A portion of the $220 million in PILT funding will go to Utah Counties, constituting a $55 million increase over the budget request for FY 2003.

The services the coun- ties provide include: solid waste disjMisal, law enforcement, road maintenance, and search and rescue. With federal ownership of some rural counties in Utah as high as 92 percent, Utah counties are the base providers of services for millions of visitors to public lands," said Bennett.
