 outdoor recreation, range, timber, watershed, and 

 wildlife and fish purposes. The purposes of sections 

 528 to 531 of this title are declared to be supple- 

 mental to, but not in derogation of, the purposes for 

 which the national forests were established as set 

 forth in section 475 of this title. Nothing herein 

 shall be construed as affecting the jurisdiction or 

 responsibilities of the several States with respect to 

 wildlife and fish on the national forests. Nothing 

 herein shall be construed so as to affect the use or 

 administration of the mineral resources of national 

 forest lands or to affect the use or administration of 

 Federal lands not within national forests (Pub L

 services obtained therefrom. In the administration 

 of the national forests due consideration shall be 

 given to the relative values of the various resources 

 in particular areas. The establishment and mainte- 

 nance of areas of wilderness are consistent with the 

 purposes and provisions of sections 528 to 531 of this

§531. Same; definitions. 



As used in sections 528 to 531 of this title the fol- 

 lowing terms shall have the following meanings: 



<a) "Multiple u.se" means: The management of all 

 the various renewable surface resources of the na- 

 tional forests so that they are utilized in the com- 

 bination that will best meet the needs of the Ameri- 

 can people: making the most judicious use of the 

 land for some or all of these resources or related 

 services over areas large enough to provide sufficient 

 latitude for periodic adjustments in use to conform 

 to changing needs and conditions: that .some land 

 will be used for less than all of the resources: and 

 harmonious and coordinated management of the 

 various resources, each with the other, without im- 

 pairment of the productivity of the land, with con- 

 sideration being given to the relative values of the 

 various resources, and not necessarily the combina- 

 tion of uses that will give the greatest dollar return 

 or the greatest unit output. 



(b) "Sustained yield of the several products and 

 services" means the achievement and maintenance 

 in perpetuity of a high-level annual or regular pe- 

 riodic output of the various renewable resources of 

 the national forests without impairment of the pro- 

 ductivity of the land. (Pub. L. 86-517, §4. June
