The Commissioner of Agriculture, Conservation and Forestry shall provide to the State Tax Assessor at the State Tax Assessor's request all information in the commissioner's possession touching the value and description of lands in the unorganized territory and a statement of all lands on which timber has been sold or a permit to cut timber has been granted by lease or otherwise.
