List of Programs Eligible for Inclusion in Funding Agreements 
Negotiated With Self-Governance Tribes by Interior Bureaus Other Than 
the Bureau of Indian Affairs and Fiscal Year 2018 Programmatic Targets

AGENCY: Office of the Secretary, Interior.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: This notice lists programs or portions of programs that are 
eligible for inclusion in self-governance funding agreements with 
Indian Tribes and lists Fiscal Year 2018 programmatic targets for each 
of the non-Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) bureaus in the Department of 
the Interior (Department), pursuant to Title IV of the Indian Self-
Determination and Education Assistance Act (Act), as amended.

DATES: These programs are eligible for inclusion in self-governance 
funding agreements until September 30, 2018.

ADDRESSES: Inquiries or comments regarding this notice may be directed 
to Ms. Sharee M. Freeman, Director, Office of Self-Governance (MS 355H-
SIB), 1849 C Street NW, Washington, DC 20240-0001, telephone: (202) 
219-0240, fax: (202) 219-1404, or to the bureau-specific points of 
contact listed below.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Dr. Kenneth D. Reinfeld, Office of 
Self-Governance, telephone: (703) 390-6551 or (202) 821-7107.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background

    Title IV of the Act instituted a permanent self-governance program 
at the Department. Under the self-governance program, certain programs, 
services, functions, and activities, or portions thereof, in Department 
bureaus other than BIA are eligible to be planned, conducted, 
consolidated, and administered by a self-governance Tribe.
    Under section 405(c) of the Act, the Secretary of the Interior 
(Secretary) is required to publish annually: (1) A list of non-BIA 
programs, services, functions, and activities, or portions thereof, 
that are eligible for inclusion in

[[Page 10513]]

agreements negotiated under the self-governance program and (2) 
programmatic targets for non-BIA bureaus.
    Two categories of non-BIA programs are eligible for self-governance 
funding agreements:
    (1) Under section 403(b)(2) of the Act, any non-BIA program, 
service, function, or activity that is administered by the Department 
that is ``otherwise available to Indian tribes or Indians,'' can be 
administered by a Tribe through a self-governance funding agreement. 
The Department interprets this provision to authorize the inclusion of 
programs eligible for self-determination contracts under Title I of the 
Act. Section 403(b)(2) also specifies, ``nothing in this subsection may 
be construed to provide any tribe with a preference with respect to the 
opportunity of the tribe to administer programs, services, functions, 
and activities, or portions thereof, unless such preference is 
otherwise provided for by law.''
    (2) Under section 403(c) of the Act, the Secretary may include 
other programs, services, functions, and activities or portions thereof 
that are of ``special geographic, historical, or cultural 
significance'' to a self-governance Tribe.
    Under section 403(k) of the Act, funding agreements cannot include 
programs, services, functions, or activities that are inherently 
Federal or where the statute establishing the existing program does not 
authorize the type of participation sought by the Tribe. However, a 
Tribe (or Tribes) need not be identified in the authorizing statutes in 
order for a program or element to be included in a self-governance 
funding agreement. While general legal and policy guidance regarding 
what constitutes an inherently Federal function exists, the non-BIA 
bureaus will determine whether a specific function is inherently 
Federal on a case-by-case basis considering the totality of 
circumstances. In those instances where the Tribe disagrees with the 
bureau's determination, the Tribe may request reconsideration from the 
Secretary.
    Subpart G of the self-governance regulations found at 25 CFR part 
1000 provides the process and timelines for negotiating self-governance 
funding agreements with non-BIA bureaus.
    Comments on a draft Federal Register Notice were requested in an 
April 3, 2017, memorandum sent by the Director, Office of Self-
Governance to Tribal Self-Governance Coordinators and were discussed 
during a Tribal consultation session held during the Self-Governance 
Conference in Spokane, Washington, on April 25, 2017.

III. Eligible Programs of the Department of the Interior Non-BIA 
Bureaus

    Below is a listing by bureau of the types of non-BIA programs, or 
portions thereof, that may be eligible for self-governance funding 
agreements because they are either ``otherwise available to Indians'' 
under Title I of the Act and not precluded by any other law, or may 
have ``special geographic, historical, or cultural significance'' to a 
participating Tribe. The list represents the most current information 
on programs potentially available to Tribes under a self-governance 
funding agreement.
    The Department will also consider for inclusion in funding 
agreements other programs or activities not listed below, but which, 
upon request of a self-governance Tribe, the Department determines to 
be eligible under either sections 403(b)(2) or 403(c) of the Act. 
Tribes with an interest in such potential agreements are encouraged to 
begin discussions with the appropriate non-BIA bureau.

A. Eligible Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Programs

    The BLM carries out some of its activities in the management of 
public lands through contracts and cooperative agreements. These and 
other activities, depending upon availability of funds, the need for 
specific services, and the self-governance Tribe's demonstration of a 
special geographic, cultural, or historical connection, may also be 
available for inclusion in self-governance funding agreements. Once a 
Tribe has made initial contact with the BLM, more specific information 
will be provided by the respective BLM State office.
    Some elements of the following programs may be eligible for 
inclusion in a self-governance funding agreement. This listing is not 
all-inclusive, but is representative of the types of programs that may 
be eligible for Tribal participation through a funding agreement.
Tribal Services
    1. Minerals Management. Inspection and enforcement of Indian oil 
and gas operations: Inspection, enforcement and production verification 
of Indian coal and sand and gravel operations are already available for 
contracts under Title I of the Act and, therefore, may be available for 
inclusion in a funding agreement.
    2. Cadastral Survey. Tribal and allottee cadastral survey services 
are already available for contracts under Title I of the Act and, 
therefore, may be available for inclusion in a funding agreement.
Other Activities
    1. Cultural Heritage. Cultural heritage activities, such as 
research and inventory, may be available in specific States.
    2. Natural Resources Management. Activities such as silvicultural 
treatments, timber management, cultural resource management, watershed 
restoration, environmental studies, tree planting, thinning, and 
similar work, may be available in specific States.
    3. Range Management. Activities, such as revegetation, noxious weed 
control, fencing, construction and management of range improvements, 
grazing management experiments, range monitoring, and similar 
activities, may be available in specific States.
    4. Riparian Management. Activities, such as facilities 
construction, erosion control, rehabilitation, and other similar 
activities, may be available in specific States.
    5. Recreation Management. Activities, such as facilities 
construction and maintenance, interpretive design and construction, and 
similar activities may be available in specific States.
    6. Wildlife and Fisheries Habitat Management. Activities, such as 
construction and maintenance, implementation of statutory, regulatory 
and policy or administrative plan-based species protection, 
interpretive design

[[Page 10514]]

and construction, and similar activities may be available in specific 
States.
    7. Wild Horse Management. Activities, such as wild horse round-ups, 
adoption and disposition, including operation and maintenance of wild 
horse facilities, may be available in specific States.
    For questions regarding self-governance, contact Bryon Loosle, 
Bureau of Land Management (WO-240), Bureau of Land Management, 1849 C 
Street NW, Washington, DC 20240, telephone (202) 912-7240, fax (202) 
452-7701.

B. Eligible Bureau of Reclamation (Reclamation) Programs

    The mission of Reclamation is to manage, develop, and protect water 
and related resources in an environmentally and economically sound 
manner in the interest of the American public. To this end, most of 
Reclamation's activities involve the construction, operation and 
maintenance, and management of water resources projects and associated 
facilities, as well as research and development related to its 
responsibilities. Reclamation water resources projects provide water 
for agricultural, municipal and industrial water supplies; 
hydroelectric power generation; flood control, enhancement of fish and 
wildlife habitats; and outdoor recreation.
    Components of the following water resource projects listed below 
may be eligible for inclusion in a self-governance annual funding 
agreement. This list was developed with consideration of the proximity 
of identified self-governance Tribes to Reclamation projects.

1. Klamath Project, California and Oregon
2. Trinity River Fishery, California
3. Central Arizona Project, Arizona
4. Rocky Boy's/North Central Montana Regional Water System, Montana
5. Indian Water Rights Settlement Projects, as authorized by Congress

    Upon the request of a self-governance Tribe, Reclamation will also 
consider for inclusion in funding agreements other programs or 
activities which Reclamation determines to be eligible under Section 
403(b)(2) or 403(c) of the Act.
    For questions regarding self-governance, contact Mr. Kelly 
Titensor, Policy Analyst, Native American and International Affairs 
Office, Bureau of Reclamation (96-43000) (MS 7069-MIB); 1849 C Street 
NW, Washington, DC 20240, telephone: (202) 513-0558, fax: (202) 513-
0311.

C. Eligible Office of Natural Resources Revenue (ONRR) Programs

    The Office of Natural Resources Revenue (ONNR) collects, accounts 
for, and distributes mineral revenues from both Federal and Indian 
mineral leases.
    The ONRR also evaluates industry compliance with laws, regulations, 
and lease terms, and offers mineral-owning Tribes opportunities to 
become involved in its programs that address the intent of Tribal self-
governance. These programs are available to self-governance Tribes and 
are a good preparation for assuming other technical functions. 
Generally, ONRR program functions are available to Tribes because of 
the Federal Oil and Gas Royalty Management Act of 1983 (FOGRMA) at 30 
U.S.C. 1701. The ONRR promotes Tribal self-governance and self-
determination over trust lands and resources through the following 
program functions that may be available to self-governance Tribes:
    1. Audit of Tribal Royalty Payments. Audit activities for Tribal 
leases, except for the issuance of orders, final valuation decisions, 
and other enforcement activities. (For Tribes already participating in 
ONRR cooperative audits, this program is offered as an option.)
    2. Verification of Tribal Royalty Payments. Financial compliance 
verification, monitoring activities, and production verification.
    3. Tribal Royalty Reporting, Accounting, and Data Management. 
Establishment and management of royalty reporting and accounting 
systems including document processing, production reporting, reference 
data (lease, payor, agreement) management, billing and general ledger.
    4. Tribal Royalty Valuation. Preliminary analysis and 
recommendations for valuation, and allowance determinations and 
approvals.
    5. Royalty Internship Program. An orientation and training program 
for auditors and accountants from mineral-producing Tribes to acquaint 
Tribal staff with royalty laws, procedures, and techniques. This 
program is recommended for Tribes that are considering a self-
governance funding agreement, but have not yet acquired mineral revenue 
expertise via a FOGRMA section 202 cooperative agreement, as this term 
is defined in FOGRMA and implementing regulations at 30 CFR 228.4.
    For questions regarding self-governance, contact Paul Tyler, 
Program Manager, Office of Natural Resources Revenue, Denver Federal 
Center, 6th & Kipling, Building 67, Room 698, Denver, Colorado 80225-
0165, telephone: (303) 231-3413 or fax: (303) 231-3091.

D. Eligible National Park Service (NPS) Programs

    NPS administers the National Park System, which is made up of 
national parks, monuments, historic sites, battlefields, seashores, 
lake shores and recreation areas. NPS maintains the park units, 
protects the natural and cultural resources, and conducts a range of 
visitor services such as law enforcement, park maintenance, and 
interpretation of geology, history, and natural and cultural resources.
    Some elements of the following programs may be eligible for 
inclusion in a self-governance funding agreement. This list below was 
developed considering the proximity of an identified self-governance 
Tribe to a national park, monument, preserve, or recreation area and 
the types of programs that have components that may be suitable for 
administering through a self-governance funding agreement. This list is 
not all-inclusive, but is representative of the types of programs which 
may be eligible for Tribal participation through funding agreements.

E. Eligible Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) Programs

    The mission of the Service is to conserve, protect, and enhance 
fish, wildlife, and their habitats for the continuing benefit of the 
American people. Primary responsibilities are for migratory birds, 
endangered species, freshwater and anadromous fisheries, and certain 
marine mammals. The Service also has a continuing cooperative 
relationship with a number of Indian Tribes throughout the National 
Wildlife Refuge System and the Service's fish hatcheries. Any self-
governance Tribe may contact a National Wildlife Refuge or National 
Fish Hatchery directly concerning participation in Service programs 
under the Tribal Self-Governance Act. This list is not all-inclusive, 
but is representative of the types of Service programs that may be 
eligible for Tribal participation through an annual funding agreement.
    1. Subsistence Programs within the State of Alaska. Evaluate and

telephone (360) 604-2531 or fax (360) 604-2505.

F. Eligible U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Programs

    The mission of the USGS is to collect, analyze, and provide 
information on biology, geology, hydrology, and geography that 
contributes to the wise management of the Nation's natural resources 
and to the health, safety, and well-being of the American people. This 
information is usually publicly available and includes maps, data 
bases, and descriptions and analyses of the water, plants, animals, 
energy, and mineral resources, land surface, underlying geologic 
structure, and dynamic processes of the earth. The USGS does not manage 
lands or resources. Self-governance Tribes may potentially assist the 
USGS in the data acquisition and analysis components of its activities.
    For questions regarding self-governance, contact Monique Fordham, 
Esq., National Tribal Liaison, U.S. Geological Survey, 12201 Sunrise 
Valley Drive, Reston, Virginia 20192, telephone (703) 648-4437 or fax 
(703) 648-6683.

G. Eligible Office of the Special Trustee for American Indians (OST) 
Programs

    The Department has responsibility for what may be the largest land 
trust in the world, approximately 56 million acres. OST oversees the 
management of Indian trust assets, including income generated from 
leasing and other commercial activities on Indian trust lands, by 
maintaining, investing and disbursing Indian trust financial assets, 
and reporting on these transactions. The mission of the OST is to serve 
Indian communities by fulfilling Indian fiduciary trust 
responsibilities. This is to be accomplished through the implementation 
of a Comprehensive Trust Management Plan (CTM) that is designed to 
improve trust beneficiary services, ownership information, management 
of trust fund assets, and self-governance activities.
    A Tribe operating under self-governance may include the following 
programs, services, functions, and activities or portions thereof in a 
funding agreement:
    1. Beneficiary Processes Program (Individual Indian Money 
Accounting Technical Functions).
    2. Appraisal Services Program. Tribes/consortia that currently 
perform these programs under a self-governance funding agreement with 
the Office of Self-Governance (OSG) may negotiate a separate memorandum 
of understanding (MOU) with OST that outlines the roles and 
responsibilities for management of these programs.
    The MOU between the Tribe/consortium and OST outlines the roles and 
responsibilities for the performance of the OST program by the Tribe/
consortium. If those roles and responsibilities are already fully 
articulated in the existing funding agreement with the OSG, an MOU is 
not necessary. To the extent that the parties desire specific program 
standards, an MOU will be negotiated between the Tribe/consortium and 
OST, which will be binding on both parties and attached and 
incorporated into the OSG funding agreement.
    If a Tribe/consortium decides to assume the operation of an OST 
program, the new funding for performing that program will come from OST 
program dollars. A Tribe's newly-assumed operation of the OST 
program(s) will be reflected in the Tribe's OSG funding agreement.
    For questions regarding self-governance, contact Lee Frazier, 
Program Analyst, Office of External Affairs, Office of the Special 
Trustee for American Indians (MS 5140--MIB), 1849 C Street NW, 
Washington, DC 20240-0001, phone: (202) 208-7587, fax: (202) 208-7545.

IV. Programmatic Targets

    The programmatic target for Fiscal Year 2018 provides that, upon 
request of a self-governance Tribe, each non-BIA bureau will negotiate 
funding agreements for its eligible programs beyond those already 
negotiated.
