  SECTION 1.  { + (1) The purpose of this section is to ensure

  (2) The Oregon Department of Administrative Services shall
distribute all sums received by the state pursuant to section
102(a)(2), (c)(1) and (d)(1)(A), P.L. 106-393, to counties in the
same manner as are sums derived from forest reserve rentals,
sales of timber and other sources from forest reserves under ORS
293.560. The department shall ensure that, of the total amount
distributed to all counties in any fiscal year, the percentage
distributed to each county in any fiscal year is the same as the
county's percentage share of all payments received by the state
during the eligibility period described in section 3(2), P.L.
106-393.
  (3) A county that receives funds from the department pursuant
to subsection (2) of this section as the county's share of
federal funds distributed under P.L. 106-393 shall deposit 25
percent of those funds in the county school fund or shall deposit
an amount as specified in ORS 294.060 (3) to (7).
 
  (4) Pursuant to ORS 328.015, amounts in the county school fund
shall be distributed to the school districts in the county based
on the resident average daily membership of the school
districts. + }

  SECTION 3.  { + This 2001 Act being necessary for the immediate
