Summary

Establishes within the Department of Agriculture an Advisory Committee on Timber Sales Procedures to study the methods by which the Forest Service sells timber and to provide independent recommendations with respect to establishing procedures by which the Service will be able to sell timber in a manner which, over the long term, will be the most beneficial to the public interest and provide the most stable return to the Federal Government while maintaining diversity in terms of sizes, types and locations of operations and facilities which process timber.
