        <RULE_TITLE>Guidance on Definition of Qualified Timber Property Under IRC Section 194</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[Guidance on Definition of Qualified Timber Property under IRC section 194.  The American Jobs Creation Act made significant changes to existing section 194 by adding an annual deduction for reforestation expenditures in the amount of $10,000 per qualified timber property to the existing amortization of reforestation expenditures. Issues involving basis reduction have led to a request for guidance on the definition of qualified timber property under section 194, as amended by the American Jobs Creation Act.]]></ABSTRACT>
