                         TITLE 16--CONSERVATION
 
   CHAPTER 1--NATIONAL PARKS, MILITARY PARKS, MONUMENTS, AND SEASHORES
 
                  SUBCHAPTER XX--GLACIER NATIONAL PARK
 
Sec. 166. Exchange of timber for private holdings; valuations

    For purposes of subdivision (1) of section 164 of this title the 
value of all patented lands within said park, including the timber 
thereon, offered for exchange, and the value of the timber on park 
lands, or on Government lands within the metes and bounds of the 
national forests within the State of Montana, proposed to be given in 
exchange for such patented lands, shall be ascertained in such manner as 
the Secretary of the Interior and the Secretary of Agriculture may 
jointly in their discretion direct, and all expenses incident to 
ascertaining such values shall be paid by the owners of said patented 
lands. Such owners shall, before any exchange is effective, furnish the 
Secretary of the Interior evidence satisfactory to him of title to the 
patented lands offered in exchange; and if the value of timber on park 
lands or on the Government lands in the national forests within the 
State of Montana exceeds the value of the patented lands deeded to the 
Government in exchange, such excess shall be paid to the Secretary of 
the Interior by the owners of the patented lands before any timber is 
removed, and shall be deposited and covered into the Treasury as 
miscellaneous receipts. The lands conveyed to the Government under this 
section and subdivision (1) of section 164 of this title shall become a 
part of the Glacier National Park.
