[QUOTE="Bright Raven, post: 1505882, member: 27490"] Banjo stated:[b] Unless things have changed.......CAIP is not govt money. It is the phase one tobacco money that the states that participated in the tobacco buyout got their hands on. Phase two was what the tobacco farmers got....this all came from the tobacco companies.[/b] As he stated, the answer to your question is "the Tobacco Companies". See below if you mean who awards the money to the participant. I coped this to provide some background: [b] In 1998, almost every state in the U.S. came together to approve the largest civil settlement in U.S. history, the Tobacco Master Settlement Agreement (MSA). This court settlement between 46 states and the District of Columbia and the major tobacco companies forced them to end some of their more egregious marketing practices and provided for annual payments to the states for some of the medical costs of caring for the 16 million Americans who have smoking-caused illnesses. The settlement was huge: $206 billion over the first 25 years and the payments continue indefinitely into the future.[/b] The state of Kentucky through the CAIP program has used some of the money it received in the Settlement to fund programs that benefit farmers who have a history of involvement in the growing of tobacco. If you mean - who did it come to the CAIP participant from - it comes directly to the participant from the State Conservation/County Extension Office to the best of my knowledge. That is who issues my payment check after I complete my project. [/QUOTE]
