Land allotted to individual Indians can be taken for public use under state or territory law, the same way privately owned land can be. Any money awarded as damages goes to the person who was allotted the land.
Lands that have been allotted in severalty (individually, not communally) to Indians can be condemned for a public purpose, using the laws of the state or territory where the land sits — in the same way that land owned in fee simple can be condemned. Whatever money is awarded as damages must be paid to the allottee.
