Once a buyer pays off the full purchase price, the government issues a land patent. That patent must state the land was classified as temporarily or permanently unproductive. It also reserves water-charge liens and mineral rights, just like homestead-law patents do.

After a buyer pays the United States the full purchase price for the land, the government issues a patent — the official document transferring title. That patent must state that the land was classified, in whole or in part, as either temporarily or permanently unproductive, under sections 423 through 423g and 610 of this title. The patent must also reserve a lien for water charges, when the Secretary decides that's appropriate. And it must reserve coal and other mineral rights, to the same extent that patents issued under the homestead laws do.

After the purchaser has paid to the United States all amounts due on the purchase price of said land, a patent shall issue which shall recite that the lands so patented have been classified in whole or in part as temporarily or permanently unproductive, as the case may be, under sections 423 to 423g and 610 of this title. Such patents shall also contain a reservation of a lien for water charges when deemed appropriate by the Secretary and reservations of coal or other mineral rights to the same extent as patents issued under the homestead laws.
