Grants for forestry cooperatives.

Official statutory text

(1) From the appropriation under s. 20.285 (1) (qm) , the center for cooperatives under s. 36.11 (40) may award grants to persons to form forestry cooperatives under ch. 185 or 193 that consist primarily of private, nonindustrial owners of woodland. A grant recipient shall provide matching funds equal to 50 percent of the grant amount awarded. The match may be in the form of money or in-kind services or both, but may not include money received from the state.

(2) In each fiscal year, the center for cooperatives may not encumber funds from the appropriation under s. 20.285 (1) (qm) for administrative expenses if the amounts encumbered in that fiscal year for administrative expenses exceed 5 percent of the total expenditures from the appropriation for the fiscal year.
