Section 3 of P.L. 81-874 authorizes financial assistance for school maintenance and operations to school districts in areas where enrollments and local revenues are adversely affected by Federal activities. The adverse Federal effects may be that Federal ownership of property within the school district reduces local tax income for school purposes, or that a Federal activity causes an influx of persons into the community, resulting in an increased number of children to be educated. This report compares the estimated FY 1988 section 3 payments under the Administration's FY 1988 budget proposal with the estimated FY 1987 section 3 payments under current law (P.L. 99-500).
