    Fences, wells, reservoirs, and other improvements necessary to the 
care and management of the permitted livestock may be constructed on the 
public lands within such grazing districts under permit issued by the 
authority of the Secretary, or under such cooperative arrangement as the 
Secretary may approve. Permittees shall be required by the Secretary of 
the Interior to comply with the provisions of law of the State within 
which the grazing district is located with respect to the cost and 
maintenance of partition fences. No permit shall be issued which shall 
entitle the permittee to the use of such improvements constructed and 
owned by a prior occupant until the applicant has paid to such prior 
occupant the reasonable value of such improvements to be determined 
under rules and regulations of the Secretary of the Interior. The 
decision of the Secretary in such cases is to be final and conclusive.
