U.S. Code as of:
01/19/04
Section 1460. Copies of records, documents, etc.; charges; disposition of receipts
The Secretary of the Interior, or any of the officers of that
Department may, when not prejudicial to the interests of the
Government, furnish authenticated or unauthenticated copies of any
official books, records, papers, documents, maps, plats, or
diagrams within his custody and may charge therefore a sum equal to
the cost of production thereof, plus the cost of administrative
services involved in handling the records for such purpose, as
these costs may be determined by the Secretary of the Interior or
such subordinate officials or employees as he may designate, and in
addition the sum of 25 cents for each certificate of verification
and the seal attached to authenticated copies. There shall be no
charge for the making or verification of copies required for
official use by the officers of any branch of the Government. Only
a charge of 25 cents shall be made for furnishing authenticated
copies of any rules, regulations, or instructions printed by the
government for gratuitous distribution. The money received for
copies under this section shall be deposited in the Treasury to the
credit of the appropriations then current and chargeable for the
cost of furnishing copies as herein authorized.
