Advisory Committees
The Daniel Boone Resource Advisory Committee (RAC) operates under authority of the Secure Rural Schools and Community Self-Determination Act of 2000. Congress established the Act to continue sharing federal revenue payments to states that include national forest lands.
The Daniel Boone RAC works in collaboration with natural resource managers, community officials, and others to recommend project decisions that benefit national forest lands and local communities. These projects are funded primarily under Title II, where county governments may allocate a portion of the state payment to fund such projects.
The Kentucky counties that currently allocate funds to Title II are Laurel, Leslie, McCreary and Rockcastle.
