SUMMARY: This notice announces the
final decision regarding SelfDetermination and Self-Governance
language to be negotiated into funding
agreements for 2006 regarding fiduciary
trust records management. The Federal
Register notice published on February
2, 2005 (70 FR 5457) presented a
proposed policy on fiduciary trust
records management for SelfDetermination (Title I) and SelfGovernance (Title IV) Tribes/Consortia
and language to be negotiated into 2006
Title I and Title IV funding agreements.
The February 2, 2005, notice also
announced three consultation meetings
and an invitation to submit written
comments on the proposed policy and
funding agreement language.
Final Decision: After reviewing
numerous comments and suggestions,
both written and oral, the Department
decided not to institute the proposed
policy on fiduciary trust records
management for Title I and Title IV
Tribes/Consortia; rather, the Department
will negotiate with each Tribe/
Consortium a specific section in the
funding agreement that addresses
Tribe’s/Consortium’s and the Secretary’s
respective responsibilities regarding the
management of fiduciary trust records.
This specific section will include the
definition of ‘‘fiduciary trust records,’’
‘‘Indian trust assets,’’ and
‘‘management.’’ The language to be
negotiated into the 2006 Title I and Title
IV funding agreements regarding
fiduciary trust records management is
the following and will replace the three
options used in the past.
The Tribe/Consortium and Secretary
agree to the following:
The Tribe/Consortium agrees to:
(a) Preserve, protect and manage all
fiduciary trust records, created and/or
maintained by the Tribes/Consortia
during their management of trust
programs in their Title IV agreements.
(A fiduciary trust record is any
document that reflects the existence of
an Indian trust asset and was used in the
management of an Indian trust asset. An
Indian trust asset refers to lands, natural
resources, monies or other assets held in
trust at a particular time by the Federal
Government for a Tribe, Alaska natives
