This section states four purposes concerning Indian forest lands. They concern shared management, limits and use of deductions from product-sale proceeds, forestry staffing, and funding authority.
The purposes of this chapter are to: (1) let the Secretary* of the Interior participate with beneficial owners in managing Indian forest lands, consistently with the Secretary’s trust responsibility and the owners’ objectives; (2) clarify the Secretary’s authority to deduct amounts from Indian forest-product sale proceeds, require those deductions to be used only on the reservation where they arose for forest-land management, and ensure no other deductions are collected; (3) increase professional Indian foresters and related forestry-program staff; and (4) authorize necessary appropriations to protect, conserve, use, manage, and improve Indian forest lands.
The purposes of this chapter are to—
allow the Secretary* of the Interior to take part in the management of Indian forest lands, with the participation of the lands’ beneficial owners, in a manner consistent with the Secretary’s trust responsibility and with the objectives of the beneficial owners;
clarify the authority of the Secretary to make deductions from the proceeds of sale of Indian forest products, assure the use of such deductions on the reservation from which they are derived solely for use in forest land management activities, and assure that no other deductions shall be collected;
increase the number of professional Indian foresters and related staff in forestry programs on Indian forest land; and
provide for the authorization of necessary appropriations to carry out this chapter for the protection, conservation, utilization, management, and enhancement of Indian forest lands.
