    (2) An elected leader of a federally recognized Tribe that has 
significant cultural or historical connections to, and expertise in, 
the landscape, archeological sites, or cultural sites within the

staggered terms.

identified in the letter of nomination and on the application form.
    Members of the Council serve without compensation. However, while 
away from their homes or regular places of business, Council members 
engaged in Council business may be allowed travel expenses, including
