Abstract
The Regulations define the rights of the Amerindians to occupy a portion of the ungranted and unlicensed State lands for the purpose of residence. The Amerindians may not clear the forest or cultivate any ungranted land other than specified in these Regulations (reg. 5). This entails that forestry activities are limited to residential purposes only, and certain species may not be cut for any purpose. (12 regulations)
