Enclosure• evol 990315 7 TWENTY-SECOND ANNUAL REPORT TO THE COLORADO STATE LEGISLATURE 1998 SUMMARY AND STATUS REPORT OF MINERAL LEASE AND SEVERANCE TAX FUNDS DISTRIBUTED THROUGH THE ENERGY AND MINERAL IMPACT ASSISTANCE PROGRAM OF • COlp 444; ip T off SANE N�� 1876 Bob Brooks, Executive Director Department of Local Affairs January, 1999 9Qv.3�� Introduction This Twenty-Second Annual Report of Expenditures from the Local Government Severance Tax Fund and the Local Government Mineral Impact Fund is submitted to the General Assembly pursuant to C.R.S. 39-29-110(3)and 34-63-102(5)c. Recognizing the fundamental similarity between the criteria for distribution of these funds and in order to hold administrative costs to a minimum,the Department of Local Affairs administers the distribution of funds from these two sources in a combined manner through the Energy and Mineral Impact Assistance program. The largest distribution of funds through the Energy and Mineral Impact Assistance program occurs in the form of discretionary grants and, in the case of water and wastewater treatment facilities,loans. Funds are available through a competitive selection process to political subdivisions and state agencies for the planning,construction and maintenance of public facilities and for the provision of public services. In the discretionary grant and loan program,priority is given to political subdivisions socially or economically impacted by the development and processing of minerals and mineral fuels.The program guidelines were updated in 1995 and continue to re-emphasize this statutory priority. The program operated with three grant cycles in 1998. Decision criteria generally include: The relative extent of negative impact from energy and mineral development,including bust conditions; The relationship of the proposed project to the negative impact; Local priority and community support; The applicant's fiscal capacity and ability to pay; The availability of alternative funding to address the situation;and, The amount of other funds leveraged. Projects are generally reviewed and prioritized by local advisory teams,at the county level,before being reviewed by the State Energy and Mineral Impact Assistance Advisory Committee. The Committee makes recommendations to the Executive Director of the Department of Local Affairs as to whether applications should receive full,partial, or no funding. The Executive Director makes the final funding decisions. REVENUES: Revenue to the TOTAL IMPACT FUND REVENUE combined local government Energy and Mineral Impact Assistance Se'erance& Federal Mineral Lease program increased slightly in 1998 due to the continued,and 35 somewhat inexplicable,strength in 30 I severance tax recipts from oil and m gas production. This is not i m 25 expected to continue. Statewide p 20 declines in oil and gas production o value will cause a significant 15 ' iI decline in revenue.The impact of 10 this decline on the program will be offset for one year by the"safety- net"provided in HB95-1]08. p Upon repeal of this provision m F 80 84 88 92 96 00 July, 1999,the full impact of the FISCAL YEAR decline in revenue to the program m Fed Mneral Lease u Severance Tax O Sev Loans F&I O Safety Pit will be felt. See Graph. PROGRAM ACTIVITIES: In 1998, 182 projects were reviewed with 167 being fully or partially funded. It should be noted that extensive staff work with potential applicants tends to weed out non-competitive proposals before they reach the point of decision. y9O-3i- With substantially greater revenues and with completion of major financial obligations to the Uranium Mill Tailings Remedial Action(UMTRA)program,grant and loan awards for local projects in 1998 increased to$19.5 million, significantly higher than$10.9 million in 1997,and$7.8 million in 1996,and$10.2 million in 1995. The 167 local projects awarded funds in 1998 compares with 101 in 1997, 85 in 1996,and 103 in 1995. Details are shown in Exhibits A,B and C. Guidelines for applicants indicate that applications in excess of$300,000 are more difficult to fund. In light of the increased revenues available this guideline will be reviewed to see if it should be changed. The general policy is to appropriately limit State assistance provided for projects and to emphasize use of the sewer and water facilities loan authority provided in statute. The loan portfolio includes 174 loans totaling$11,838,623 of which 134 are on a current repayment schedule and 40 loans have been repaid. In 1997,$1,176,461 in loan principal and interest payments were received. As shown in Exhibit B,the Energy and Mineral Impact Assistance program has continued to focus on various public facilities, including water and sewage infrastructure,and public safety needs in smaller communities. In addition,as communities grapple with growth pressures,there were a significant number of planning related projects in 1998. The Department is working closely with local governments to ensure that grant and loan activity is conducted in accordance with constitutional provisions related to debt,spending and revenue limitations. In some cases,grant and/or loan offers will not be contracted until projects are ratified by voters through election. Should the electorate reject the offer of a grant or loan,projects will not be implemented. The Department has modified its schedule for grant/loan review processes to allow for local elections if necessary. In both the severance tax and federal mineral lease distribution statutes,the Department is responsible for sending a portion of the funds directly back to municipalities and counties on the basis of employee residence reports from mineral producers. These direct distributions are reported in Exhibits D and E. Exhibit F summarizes"PILT off'payments from Severance Tax funds made in 1998 to the six counties which have chosen the alternate method of allocation of federal Mineral Lease royalties allowed by House Bill 97-1123. This rather complex option permits a county to elect to redirect its own share of federal Mineral Lease revenues to its municipalities and school districts and, by virtue of provision of the federal Payment in Lieu of Taxes(PILT) law,to thereby increase the amount of PILT funds it receives from the federal government. The benefit is to municipalities and school districts in the county because their receipts of federal Mineral Lease funds are increased. The Severance Tax payments summarized in Exhibit F are intended to hold counties harmless for one year until foregone federal Mineral Lease receipts are replaced by federal PILT payments. The distribution of funds in 1998 through the Energy and Mineral Impact Assistance program is summarized in six exhibits,which immediately follow. These exhibits reflect, in a combined fashion,distributions from both the Local Government Severance Tax Fund and the Local Government Mineral Impact Fund. Exhibit A 1998 applications and awards Exhibit B 1998 applications and awards by project type Exhibit C 1998 applications and awards by region Exhibit D 1998 severance tax direct distribution Exhibit E 1998 mineral lease direct distribution Exhibit F 1998 PILT offset payments For additional information,contact the Department of Local Affairs'Field Services Office at 303/866-2771.

Total funds available this year are 2% less than last year's level. The number of employees reported this year increased by 6%. The funds paid per employee,per category,in this year's distribution are as follows: 6%lower in oil/gas,12.6%lower in coal,and 24%lower in metal. The lower amount per employee figures are attributable to the increased number of employees reported and the reduced level of funds available for distribution. The employee residency figures used for this direct distribution computation are from reports provided by the state Department of Revenue. By dividing the total number of reported employees for oil/gas,coal and metals into the respective severance tax receipts for each of the mineral types, we have obtained the payment per reported employee figures given at the bottom of the attached table. Multiplication by the number of employees in each jurisdiction and summing across types of mineral, gives the total payment figures itemized. If you have any questions regarding this distribution, please contact Bill Verbeten in our Field Services Section at(303) 866-3573.
