Tribal Trust Evaluations for P.L. 93-639 Compact Tribes

As codified in 25 U.S.C. 4001 et seq., the American Indian Trust Fund Management Reform Act of 1994 (the Reform Act), makes provisions for the Bureau of Trust Funds Administration (BTFA) (formerly known as the Office of the Special Trustee for American Indians (OST)) to administer trust funds accounts for individuals and Tribes. This collection of information is required to fulfill the mission of BTFA and the Secretary of the Interior’s responsibility for evaluating all P.L. 93-638 Compact Tribes administering and managing trust programs, functions, services, and/or activities on behalf of the Secretary of the Interior. This responsibility is federally mandated pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 458cc(d) and 25 CRF 1000.350. The BTFA Division of Trust Evaluation and Review (DTER) (formerly known as the Office of Trust Review and Audit (OTRA)) is responsible for performing trust examinations, evaluations and assessments of Indian trust programs and functions, pursuant to executive direction by the Secretary of the Interior. In addition, DTER has a congressional mandate to conduct Annual Tribal Trust Evaluations for Tribes that administer or manage trust programs, functions, services, and/or activities under P.L. 93-638 Self-Governance Compacts on behalf of the Secretary of the Interior. These evaluations are conducted by performing desk reviews (via e-mail questionnaires) and/or teleconferences, as well as on-site visits.
