The Forest Service explained that all lands suitable for agricultural settlement have been settled or allotted, and there are no lands available for homesteading or allotment purposes. The Forest Homestead Act of 1906 did not provide homesteading rights for Indians, and the lands in question were reacquired by the United States for specific purposes and are not open for settlement. The Forest Allotment Act of 1910 allowed eligible Indians to obtain allotments on National Forest lands, but all lands classified for agricultural settlement have been settled or allotted. Congress repealed the 1906 act in 1962 because its purpose had been fulfilled. The Forest Service expressed understanding for the frustrations of those who obtain Certificates of Eligibility but find no lands available for agricultural settlement.

The Act also allowed for the conveyance of lands to a trustee designated by the tribe and for the sale of lands acquired for tribal use. It provided rights for individual members of the tribe to purchase lands they occupied and authorized the Secretary to execute necessary instruments to carry out the provisions of the Act. Additionally, the Act specified that existing leases, permits, and contracts would not be affected and outlined procedures for setting off debts against funds owed to individuals or the tribe. It also stated that certain provisions of previous Acts would no longer apply to the Choctaw Tribe and its members after the enactment of this Act.
