Emcdonald on DSK2BSOYB1PROD with NOTICES
Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 95 / Tuesday, May 17, 2011 / Notices
appropriate for local, regional, or single
Tribe issues.
The Bureau or Office will solicit the
views of affected Tribes regarding the
process timeline to meaningfully
consider a Departmental Action with
Tribal Implications. The Bureau or
Office should make all reasonable
efforts to comply with the expressed
views of the affected Tribes regarding
the process timeline at this Stage, taking
into account the level of impact, the
scope, and the complexity of the issues
involved in the Departmental Action
with Tribal Implications, along with the
other factors driving the schedule. The
process will be open and transparent.
If the Bureau or Office determines that
the Administrative Procedure Act or
other Federal law or regulation
expressly prohibits continued
discussion at a specified point in the
decision-making process, the Bureau or
Office should so inform the Tribes at the
outset of this Stage in the process.
3. Implementation of Final Federal
Action Stage.
In addition to any formal notice
required by law or regulation, final
decisions on Departmental Action with
Tribal Implications should be
communicated in writing to affected
Tribes, with a summarized explanation
of the final decision.
A Bureau or Office may consider
implementing a post-consultation
review process where it is consistent
with law, regulations, and EO 13175.
Any review process shall not limit the
Department’s deliberative process
privilege regarding internal
considerations or any other applicable
privilege. The Bureau or Office at this
Stage will consider the need for training
or technical assistance.
F. Impact of Consultation Guidelines.
Consultation as described in this
Section is not a basis for the Department
to preclude requests or
recommendations by Bureaus, Offices,
or Indian Tribes to collaborate and
foster trusting relationships between the
Department and Indian Tribes outside of
the processes described in this Section.
Exigent circumstances may allow the
Department to take measures that
deviate from this Policy, but the
Department should make every effort to
comply and should explain to Indian
Tribes as soon as exigent circumstances
arise.
VIII. Supplemental Policies
Bureaus and Offices, in collaboration
with the TGO, are to review existing
policies that may be impacted by this
Policy. All Bureau and Office policies
are to conform to this Policy. Where
necessary, a Bureau or Office may

develop a new policy in order to
conform to this Policy.
Consistent with Federal
appropriations law, the Department
shall develop a policy for consultation
with Alaska Native Corporations. The
Policy will address when a Department
action impacts an Alaska Native
Corporation’s interest. The Policy will
not conflict with the requirements of
this document. The Secretary’s designee
will provide a Plan of Action for
developing the Alaska Native
Corporation consultation policy. Other
entities that are not Bureaus or Offices
as defined in this Policy may develop
policies that conform to this Policy.
Other entities may develop such
policies in coordination with the TGO.
IX. Disclaimer
Except to the extent already
established by law, this Policy is
intended only to improve the internal
management of the Department, and is
not intended to create any right, benefit,
or trust responsibility, substantive or
procedural, enforceable at law by a
party against the Department or any
person. The Department also does not
waive any applicable privilege that it
may hold by virtue of this Policy.
Dated: May 11, 2011.

Chief of Staff.
