U.S. Code as of:
01/19/04
Section 196. Sale or other disposition of dead timber
The President of the United States may from year to year in his
discretion under such regulations as he may prescribe authorize the
Indians residing on reservations or allotments, the fee to which
remains in the United States, to fell, cut, remove, sell or
otherwise dispose of the dead timber standing, or fallen, on such
reservation or allotment for the sole benefit of such Indian or
Indians. But whenever there is reasonable cause to believe that
such timber has been killed, burned, girdled, or otherwise injured
for the purpose of securing its sale under this section then in
that case such authority shall not be granted.
