§206 Exchange of Lands Within Exterior Boundaries; Removal of Timber

Summary

The Secretary of the Interior may take title to private land inside the outer boundaries of Lassen Volcanic National Park if the Park Service director says the land is mainly good for forests, recreation, or park use. In return, the United States can give up to an equal value of park land, or let the owner cut and remove an equal value of timber from designated park areas under forestry rules set by the Secretary and in a way that won’t harm recreation. Land accepted becomes part of the park.
