I. Background
Notice was published in the Federal
Register on November 12, 2010, that the
BIA would conduct five tribal
consultation meetings on the BIA draft
revisions to 25 CFR part 81 and 25 CFR
part 82. The background described in
the Notice reads:
In 1992, the BIA drafted revisions to
25 CFR part 81 and 25 CFR part 82 and
held four consultation sessions. The BIA
received comments and
recommendations that are now in the
current draft version. The current draft
version also:
• Incorporates the amendments made
to section 16 of the IRA, 25 U.S.C. 476
(48 Stat. 984), as amended by the Act of
November 1, 1988 (Pub. L. 100–581, 102
Stat. 2938), which established time
frames within which the Secretary of
the Interior must call and conduct
Secretarial elections;
• Reflects the amendments made to
section 17 of the IRA by the Act of May
24, 1990 (Pub. L. 101–301, 104 Stat.
207) under which additional tribes may
petition for charter of incorporation and
removes the requirement of a Secretarial
election to ratify new charters;
• Reflects the addition of two new
subsections to section 16 of the IRA by
the Technical Corrections Act of 1994
(Pub. L. 103–363, 108 Stat. 707), which
eliminates distinctions between Indians
reorganized as historical tribes and
those reorganized as communities of
adult Indians;
• Includes language clarifying that an
IRA tribe may amend its constitution to
remove Secretarial approval of future
amendments as indicated by the new
subsection to Section 16 of the IRA with
the enactment of the Native American
Technical Corrections Act of 2004 (Pub.
L. 106–179, 118 Stat. 453);
• Provides guidelines for the approval
or disapproval of charters by the
Secretary; and
• Corrects demonstrated weaknesses
and clarifies confusing language in the
existing regulations.
A consultation booklet containing the
current draft version of the rule will be
available for the meetings and will be
distributed to federally recognized
Indian tribes and BIA regional and
agency offices.
Dated: December 28, 2009.

Assistant Secretary—Indian Affairs.

Pick-Sloan Missouri Basin Program,
Eastern and Western Division
Proposed Project Use Power Rate
srobinson on DSKHWCL6B1PROD with NOTICES
AGENCY: Bureau of Reclamation,
Interior.
ACTION: Notice of Proposed Pick-Sloan
Missouri Basin Program, Eastern and
Western Divisions, Project Use Power
Rate Adjustment.
SUMMARY: The Bureau of Reclamation
(Reclamation) is proposing a rate
adjustment (proposed rate) for Project
Use Power for the Pick-Sloan Missouri
Basin Program (P–SMBP), Eastern and
Western Divisions. The proposed rate
for Project Use Power is to recover all
annual operating, maintenance, and
replacement expenses. The analysis of
the proposed Project Use Power Rate is
included in a booklet available upon
request. The proposed rate for Project
Use Power will become effective
February 19, 2010.
This notice provides the opportunity
for public comment. After review of
comments received, Reclamation will
consider them, revise the rates if
necessary, and recommend a proposed
rate for approval to the Secretary of the
Interior’s Office.
DATES: The comment period will begin
with publication of this notice in the
Federal Register. To be assured
consideration, please submit comments
on or before February 10, 2010.
ADDRESSES: Please send written
comments to Mike Ferguson, GP–2020,
Power O&M Administrator, Bureau of
Reclamation, P.O. Box 36900, Billings,
MT 59107–6900.

Proposed Rate Adjustment
Power rates for the P–SMBP are
established pursuant to the Reclamation
Act of 1902 (43 U.S.C. 371 et seq.), as
amended and supplemented by
subsequent enactments, particularly
section 9(c) of the Reclamation Project
Act of 1939 (43 U.S.C. 485h (c)) and the
Flood Control Act of 1944 (58 Stat. 887).
Beginning February 19, 2010,
Reclamation proposes to:
(a) Increase the energy charge from
12.55 mills/kWh to 16.17 mills/kWh.
(b) the monthly demand charge will
remain at zero.
The Project Use Power Rate will be
reviewed each time Western Area Power
Administration (Western) adjusts the P–
SMBP Firm Power Rate. Western will
conduct the necessary studies and use
the methodology identified in this rate
proposal to determine a new rate.
The existing rate schedule MRB–P12
placed into effect on January 21, 2006,
will be replaced by rate schedule MRB–
P13. The new rate schedule will include
clarifying language for entities
exceeding the contract rate of delivery
(CROD). Coincident electrical demand
in excess of the CROD will result in a
penalty where a share of that month’s
energy proportional to the excess will be
charged at ten (10) times the current
project use rate as reflected in rate
schedule MRB–13. The penalty will be
calculated as follows:
P = (((BD/CROD)—1) * BE) * (10 * CR)
Where: P = Penalty ($)
BD = Billed Demand (kW)
CROD = Contract Rate of Delivery (kW)
BE = Billed Energy (kWh)
CR = Current Project Use Power Rate
(mills/kWh)
The customer will also be billed for
any increased capacity and transmission
charges incurred by the Government as
a result of exceeding the CROD.
In compliance with the National
Environmental Policy Act of 1969
(NEPA), 42 U.S.S. 4321 et seq.; Council
on Environmental Quality Regulations
(40 CFR Parts 1500–1508); and
Reclamation’s Regulations (10 CFR Part
1021), Reclamation has determined that
this action is categorically excluded
from the preparation of an
Environmental Assessment or
Environmental Impact Statement.
Before including your name, address,
phone number, e-mail address, or other
personal identifying information in any
correspondence, you should be aware
that your entire correspondence,
including your personal identifying
information, may be made publicly

organizations or businesses, available
for public disclosure in their entirety.
