recreation benefits and (2) conservation of scenic, scientific,
historic, and other values contributing to public enjoyment. Within

disposal of renewable natural resources and the continuation of
existing uses and developments as will promote, or are compatible
with, or do not significantly impair public recreation and
conservation of the scenic, scientific, historic, or other values
contributing to public enjoyment, are authorized. In administering
the recreation areas, the Secretary may utilize such statutory
authorities pertaining to the administration of the national park
system, and such statutory authorities otherwise available to him

deems appropriate for recreation and preservation purposes and for
resource development compatible therewith. Within the Ross Lake
National Recreation Area the removal and disposal of trees within

laws; removal of minerals
The lands within the recreation areas, subject to valid existing
rights, are hereby withdrawn from all forms of appropriation or

the United States mineral leasing laws: Provided, however, That
within that portion of the Lake Chelan National Recreation Area
which is not designated as wilderness, sand, rock and gravel may be
made available for sale to the residents of Stehekin for local use
so long as such sale and disposal does not have significant adverse
effects on the administration of the Lake Chelan National
Recreation Area.

interests in lands within the recreation areas under the Mineral
Leasing Act of February 25, 1920, as amended [30 U.S.C. 181 et

The Secretary shall permit hunting and fishing on lands and
waters under his jurisdiction within the boundaries of the
recreation areas in accordance with applicable laws of the United
States and of the State of Washington, except that the Secretary
may designate zones where, and establish periods when, no hunting
or fishing shall be permitted for reasons of public safety,
administration, fish and wildlife management, or public use and
enjoyment. Except in emergencies, any regulations of the Secretary
pursuant to this section shall be put into effect only after
consultation with the Department of Game of the State of
Washington.
