Congress must consider the recommendations of Interior and USDA when determining whether to make such a designation.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;For each congressionally designated tribal cultural area, Interior or USDA must (1) establish a tribal commission to provide guidance and recommendations on the development of a management plan for the tribal cultural area, and (2) develop a comprehensive management plan.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;The bill allows for self-determination contracts with tribes or tribal organizations to perform administrative or management functions within a tribal cultural area.&lt;/p&gt;</text>
