Nature of Decision To Be Made
The Forest Service will determine if
the lands to be exchanged are desirable,
in the public interest, and suitable for
inclusion in the National Forest System.
Land exchanges are discretionary,
voluntary real estate transactions
between the Federal and non-Federal
parties.
The exchange can only be completed
after the authorized officer determines
that the exchanges meets the
requirements at 36 CFR 254.3(b): (1) The
resource values and the public
objectives served by non-Federal lands
and interests to be acquired are equal to
or exceed the resource values and
public objectives served by the Federal
lands to be disposed, and (2) the
intended use of the disposed Federal
lands will not substantially conflict
with established management objectives
on adjacent Federal lands, including
Indian Trust Lands. Lands will be
exchanged on a value for value basis,
based on current fair market value
appraisals. The appraisal is prepared in
accordance with the Uniform Appraisal
Standards of Professional Appraisal
Practice and the Uniform Appraisal
Standards for Federal Land Acquisition.
The appraisal prepared for the land
exchange is reviewed by a qualified
review appraiser to ensure that it is fair
and complies with the appropriate
standards. Under the Federal Land
Policy and Management Act of 1976, all
exchanges must be equal in value.
Forest Service regulations at 36 CFR
254.3 require that exchanges must be of
equal value or equalized pursuant to 36
CFR 254.12 by cash payment after
making all reasonable efforts to equalize
values by deleting lands. If lands
proposed for exchange are not equal in
value, either party may make them
equal by cash payment not to exceed 25
percent of the Federal land value. A
value consultation by the Regional
Appraiser, November 25, 2008
concluded that it appears that the
exchange is structured with flexibility to
comply with the equal value
requirement of the Federal Land Policy
Management Act (FLMPA), as amended.
