      CHAPTER 3--FORESTS; FOREST SERVICE; REFORESTATION; MANAGEMENT
 
            SUBCHAPTER IV--SUSTAINED-YIELD FOREST MANAGEMENT
 
Sec. 583f. ``Federally owned or administered forest land'' 
        defined
        
    Whenever used in this subchapter, the term ``federally owned or 
administered forest land'' shall be construed to mean forest land in 
which, or in the natural resources of which, the United States has a 
legal or equitable interest of any character sufficient to entitle the 
United States to control the management or disposition of the timber or 
other forest products thereon, except land heretofore or hereafter 
reserved or withdrawn for purposes which are inconsistent with the 
exercise of the authority conferred by this subchapter; and shall 
include trust or restricted Indian land, whether tribal or allotted, 
except that such land shall not be included without the consent of the 
Indians concerned.
