H. Eligible Programs of the Office of the
Special Trustee for American Indians
(OST)
The Department of the Interior has
responsibility for what may be the
largest land trust in the world,
approximately 56 million acres. OST
oversees the management of these trust
assets as well as maintains, invests,
disburses, and reports to individual
Indians and tribes on financial asset
transactions generated from leasing and
other commercial activities on these
lands. 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 selfgovernance may include the following
programs, services, functions, and
activities or portions thereof in a
funding agreement:
1. Financial Trust Services (Individual
Indian Monies Financial Services)
2. Appraisal Services
Responsibilities for the operation of
these programs have been shifted from
BIA to OST. Tribes/Consortia that
currently perform these programs under
a Self-Governance funding agreement
with the Indian Affairs, 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 SelfGovernance funding agreement, an
MOU is not required. To the extent that
any necessary elements are missing
from the funding agreement, however,
an MOU will be negotiated between the
Tribe/Consortium and OST.
Other Self-Governance Tribes/
Consortia that do not perform these
programs may be eligible to enter into
a self-governance funding agreement
with OST. In such cases, the Tribe/
Consortium would negotiate a funding
agreement with OST and the funding
would come from OST program dollars.
These funding agreements would
stipulate the roles and responsibilities
of the Tribe/Consortium and OST and
no separate MOU would be necessary.

IV. Programmatic Targets
During Fiscal Year 2006, upon request
of a self-governance tribe, each non-BIA
bureau will negotiate funding
agreements for its eligible programs
beyond those already negotiated.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
CCNM RMP provides direction for
managing the approximate 1000 acres of
offshore rocks, small islands, exposed
reefs, and pinnacles that comprise the
Monument. The Monument was
established by Presidential
Proclamation No. 7264 on January 11,
2000, under the authority of the
Antiquities Act of 1906. The Monument
lies within the jurisdiction of 15
California counties and five BLM field
offices, and at least 25% of the coastal
portion of the mainland adjacent to the
Monument is contained within the
California State Parks System. Planning
for the Monument officially began with
a Federal Register notice on April 24,
2002 initiating scoping. The California
Department of Fish and Game, the
California Department of Parks and
Recreation, the United States Air Force,
and the Cher-Ae Heights Indian
Community of the Trinidad Rancheria,
a federally recognized tribe, are
cooperating agencies in the
development of this RMP. BLM sought
public and governmental participation
in the development of this RMP and
will continue to pursue partnerships in
the management of the Monument.
Because of the unique nature of the
CCNM, many governmental entities
have jurisdiction over resources
immediately adjacent to the monument
and are integrally important to meeting
the goals and objectives for the
Monument, as established in the RMP.
