§ 63301. Improving Resources; Responsibility.

The Department of Agriculture shall be responsible to protect, develop and manage Guam’s public

lands in a manner that will conserve the basic soil resources, and at the same time produce continuous yields

of water, wood fiber, forage, recreation and wildlife for the use and benefit of the greatest number of people

of Guam. The Department shall also endeavor to encourage and assist private land owners to do the same

with their land, and establish an urban and community forestry program with village mayors and civil

groups. At the discretion of the Director, tree seeds and seedlings may be made available by the Department

for planting on private and public lands, either on a free distribution basis or at a price determined by the

Director.
