Executive Order 7607—Transfer of Lands From Dixie National Forest to Nevada National Forest

NEVADA

By virtue of and pursuant to the authority vested in me by the act of June 4, 1897, 30 Stat. 11, 36 (U.S.C., title 16, sec. 473), and upon the recommendation of the Secretary of Agriculture, it is ordered that that part of the Dixie National Forest known as the Moapa Division and situated within Townships 18, 19, and 20 South of Ranges 55, 56, and 57 East, Mt. Diablo Meridian, as fixed and defined by Proclamation No. 1465 of July 12, 1918, be, and it is hereby, transferred to and made a part of the Nevada National Forest.

It is not intended by this order to give a national-forest status to any publicly-owned lands which have hitherto not had such a status, nor to remove any publicly-owned lands from a national forest status.

This order shall become effective July 1, 1937.
