Document preservation fund and NDRIN fund The document preservation fund is the result of fees collected in the County Recorder's Office when documents are filed and is used to enhance and maintain permanent records in the office. The NDRIN (North Dakota Recorders Information Network) revenue funds are generated from a portion of the document preservation fees that member counties pay and from charges for services to clients who access their web site. Members of the NDRIN board are the county recorders from each of the member counties, and this group elects an executive board to oversee the operation of the electronic central repository and approves an annual budget. Mr. Montplaisir said Cass County was the sponsor for a FEMA grant that facilitated the microfilming of county recorder's records across the state and development of the central repository in Fargo.
