The commissioner of revenue administration shall adopt rules, pursuant to RSA 541-A, relative to forms for application to the commissioner of revenue administration for payment for lost taxes. Any town in which national forest lands and land held by the state for operation and development as state forestland, as defined by the department for the purposes of this section, are situated, whether acquired by gift, devise, purchase, or in any other manner, may apply, by its selectmen, to the commissioner of revenue administration on forms provided by the commissioner, annually before September 1, for the payment of an amount not exceeding the taxes for all purposes which such town might have received from taxes on such lands in such year had such lands been taxable. In the event that the amount appropriated in any biennium shall be insufficient for the purposes under this section, then the towns entitled to benefits under this section shall be reimbursed proportionately, unless otherwise subsequently ordered by the legislature.
