Sec. 460z-5. Land acquisition in inland sector
Within the inland sector established by section 460z-2 of this title
the Secretary may acquire the following classes of property only with
the consent of the owner:
(a) improved property as hereinafter defined;
(b) property used for commercial or industrial purposes if such
commercial or industrial purposes are the same such purposes for
which the property was being used on December 31, 1970, or such
commercial or industrial purposes have been certified by the
Secretary or his designee as compatible with or furthering the
purposes of this subchapter;
(c) timberlands under sustained yield management so long as the
Secretary determines that such management is being conducted in
accordance with standards for timber production, including but not
limited to harvesting reforestation, and debris cleanup, not less
stringent than management standards imposed by the Secretary on
comparable national forest lands: Provided, That the Secretary may
acquire such lands or interests therein without the consent of the
owner if he determines that such lands or interests are essential
for recreation use or for access to or protection of recreation
developments within the purposes of this subchapter. In any
acquisition of such lands or interests the Secretary shall, to the
extent practicable, minimize the impact of such acquisition on
access to or the reasonable economic use for sustained yield
forestry of adjoining lands not acquired; and
(d) property used on December 31, 1970, primarily for private,
noncommercial recreational purposes if any improvements made to such
property after said date are certified by the Secretary of
Agriculture or his designee as compatible with the purposes of this
subchapter.
