SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C.
3501–3521) and OMB regulations at 5
CFR part 1320 provide that an agency
may not conduct or sponsor a collection
of information unless it displays a
currently valid OMB control number.
Until OMB approves a collection of
information, you are not obligated to
respond. In order to obtain and renew
an OMB control number, Federal
agencies are required to seek public
comment on information collection and
recordkeeping activities (see 5 CFR
1320.8(d) and 1320.12(a)).
As required at 5 CFR 1320.8(d), the
BLM published a 60-day notice in the
Federal Register on September 20, 2016
(81 FR 64502), and the comment period
ended November 21, 2016. The BLM
received two non-substantive public
comments, which did not address, and
were not germane to, this information
collection. Therefore, the BLM has not
changed the collection in responses to
the comments.
The BLM now requests comments on
the following subjects:
1. Whether the collection of
information is necessary for the proper
PO 00000

2. The accuracy of the BLM’s estimate
of the burden of collecting the
information, including the validity of
the methodology and assumptions used;
3. The quality, utility and clarity of
the information to be collected; and

appropriate automated, electronic,
mechanical, or other forms of
information technology.

Identifying Lands Subject to
Secretarial Order of Restoration of
February 22, 1945
Bureau of Land Management,
Bureau of Indian Affairs, Interior.
ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:
On February 22, 1945, the
Secretary of the Interior issued an Order
restoring to the Red Lake Band of
Chippewa Indians of Minnesota
(‘‘Tribe’’) certain lands that the Tribe
had previously ceded to the United
States for use by non-Indians. The lands
restored to the Tribe by the 1945 Order
are lands that were continuously held in
trust by the United States since the
cessions, that were never sold or
otherwise disposed of, and for which
the Tribe was never paid. This notice
provides a partial list of the legal
descriptions of lands restored to the
Tribe by the 1945 Order. The Secretary
included in the 1945 Order ‘‘lands
which have been assessed for drainage
works by the State of Minnesota under
the authority of the Volstead Act of May
20, 1908 . . . subject to any existing
valid rights.’’ The Department has
reviewed and resolved title issues that
arose regarding applicability of the
Volstead Act. Thus, without further
delay, these legal descriptions are
published as representing lands among
the lands restored to the Tribe as trust
lands.
DATES: Restoration of lands was
effective on February 22, 1945.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Nelson Act of January 14, 1889, ch. 24,
25 Stat. 642, created and authorized a
Federal commission to negotiate a
cession of lands in northern Minnesota
from the Red Lake Band of Chippewa
Indians of Minnesota to the United
States. By agreement dated July 8, 1889,
2.9 million acres of land known as
‘‘Royce 706’’ were ceded by the Tribe to
the United States for the benefit of the
Tribe. The Tribe retained a much
smaller area known as ‘‘Royce 707.’’
On March 10, 1902, another
agreement was negotiated between the
Tribe and the United States for the
cession of an additional 256,152 acres of
land in the western portion of Royce
707. This agreement was approved, with
amendments, by Congress under the Act
of February 20, 1904, ch. 161, 33 Stat.
46. Consistent with the provisions of the
Nelson Act, the lands the Tribe ceded to
the United States were opened for
timber sales and homesteading, and
most of the lands were disposed of by
the 1930s.

authorized the Secretary of the Interior,
if he found it to be in the public interest,
‘‘to restore to tribal ownership the
remaining surplus lands to any Indian
reservation [that prior to June 18, 1934
were] opened, or authorized to be
opened, to sale or any other form of
disposal by Presidential proclamation,
or by any of the public land laws of the
United States[.]’’ 25 U.S.C. 463(a).
On February 22, 1945, exercising this
authority granted by the IRA, the
Secretary of the Interior issued an Order
of Restoration (‘‘1945 Order’’), 10 FR
2448 (1945). The 1945 Order ‘‘Restored
to tribal ownership all those lands of the
Red Lake Indian Reservation which
were ceded by the Indians under [the
Nelson Act and the Act of February 20,
1904] and which were opened for sale
or entry but for which the Indians have
not been paid and which now are or
hereafter may be classified as
undisposed of.’’ 10 FR at 2449. See also
Act of December 4, 1942, ch. 673, 56
Stat. 1039 (‘‘All right, title, and interest
of the Minnesota Chippewa Tribe in and
to the so-called Red Lake Indian ceded
lands, including any administrative
reserves, is hereby declared
extinguished and title thereto vested in
the Red Lake Band of Chippewa
Indians.’’).
On May 28, 1945, the Acting
Commissioner of the General Land
Office forwarded to the Commissioner
of the Office of Indian Affairs a list of
lands that satisfied the criteria of the
1945 Order and could be returned to the
Tribe. On April 29, 1946, and January 9,
1947, amendments to the list of lands
were made. The list of May 28, 1945,
and the amendments of April 29, 1946,
and January 9, 1947 (collectively, the
‘‘1945 List’’) totaled approximately
157,499 acres of noncontiguous lands.
The 1945 List was to have been
published in the Federal Register to
provide public notice of lands that were
subject to the 1945 Order. However,
shortly after the 1945 List was
completed, several title and legal
description problems with lands on the
list were discovered, and the 1945 List
