Sec.  223.6  Cutting and removal of timber in free-use areas.

    Supervisors may designate portions or all of a National Forest as 
free-use areas where such action is compatible with land management 
plans and shall give public notice of their action. Within such free-use 
areas, any dead timber or any green timber previously marked or 
designated by forest officers may be cut and removed for personal use 
for domestic purposes. Cutting and removal of timber in free-use areas 
shall be in accordance with such rules as may be prescribed by the 
district ranger to prevent fires, minimize damage to uncut trees and 
other resources, and to avoid confusion among users.
