PRC § 4684.5

Notwithstanding Section 4684, the director may give such forest seedlings or native plants for the purposes of reforestation or soil erosion control at the end of each season’s sales as are, in his determination, surplus, to private persons or nonprofit organizations for planting on state, federal, or other public property. Any person or nonprofit organization requesting such surplus forest seedlings or native plants shall provide such information as the director determines is necessary to insure that the forest seedlings or native plants will be planted on public property and that they are sufficiently compatible with the proposed planting area to have a reasonable chance for survival.
