: This is a 44-acre commonage, shared by two owners and over part of which the Forest and Wildlife Service and the person mentioned have certain grazing rights.

Moreover, it is felt that, when a settlement had been reached with the person referred to in respect of the grazing rights held by him, the area available for afforestation would not warrant acquisition.
