Title V, Section 503 of the Energy Policy Act of 2005 (Pub. L. 109–58), requires the Secretary of the Interior (Secretary) to promulgate regulations that implement new provisions concerning development of energy resources on tribal lands. Specifically, the Act authorizes the creation of Tribal Energy Resource Agreements (TERA). The purpose of these agreements is to promote tribal oversight and management of energy and mineral resource development on tribal lands and further the goal of Indian selfdetermination. The Department of the Interior requests public comment on all areas of concern regarding the development of and regulation of TERAs. In addition to general comments on the impact of Title V of the Energy Policy Act of 2005 on Indian tribes, we are asking for specific feedback on the following issues raised by the Act: • Issue: The Act sets a specific time limit for the Secretary to approve or disapprove an original or revised TERA. VerDate Aug<31>2005 14:22 Dec 08, 2005 Jkt 208001 Question: What criteria should the Secretary use to determine whether or not a proposed TERA contains sufficient technical and programmatic information for DOI to ‘‘start the clock’’ and proceed with an evaluation to approve or disapprove an original or revised TERA? • Issue: The Act states that the Secretary shall approve a TERA if the Indian tribe has sufficient capacity to regulate the development of its energy resources. Question: What criteria should the Secretary use to determine whether or not an Indian tribe has sufficient capacity to regulate the development of its energy resources? • Issue: The Act states that with respect to a lease, business agreement, or right-of-way, a TERA must include provisions that ensure the acquisition of necessary information from the applicant. Question: What constitutes ‘‘necessary’’ information? • Issue: The Act states that with respect to a lease, business agreement, or right-of-way, a TERA must include PO 00000 Frm 00064 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 provisions that address technical or other relevant requirements. Question: What are the ‘‘technical or other relevant requirements’’ that must be included in a TERA? • Issue: The Act states that with respect to a lease, business agreement, or right-of-way, a TERA must establish a process for environmental review of energy development projects in accordance with certain minimum requirements. Question: What additional environmental review requirements above the minimum should the Secretary require for a TERA? • Issue: The Act states that a lease, business agreement, or right-of-way granted by a TERA shall contain provisions that allow the Secretary to suspend or rescind the agreement if a material violation of the agreement occurs. Question: What constitutes a ‘‘material’’ breach of the terms of a lease, business agreement, or right-ofway? Further, what options should the Secretary make available to tribes to allow for corrective action to TERA- E:\FR\FM\09DEN1.SGM 09DEN1
