Land Area Representation

<p>The BIA TAAMS Mapped Tribal Tracts and BIA TAAMS Mapped Tribal Parcels datasets depict tracts and parcels with Tribal ownership or are allotted. This dataset is organized y Land Area Code and Tract Number. This dataset is updated as mapped parcels are updated. This dataset only displayed mapped Tracts and Parcels and it may not be a full picture of Tribal Tracts and Parcels. If a parcel cannot be mapped for any reason, it may not be displayed in this dataset, thus this dataset should not be considered a complete picture of Tribal land. The BIA Mapped Tribals Tract and BIA Mapped Tribals Parcels servicesdisplay the same data. A parcel is a subdivision of a tract. Ownership is indicated in both the Tract and Parcel dataset in the 'Ownership' field. An Ownership value of 'T' indicates Tribally-ownership and an ownership value of 'A' indicates the tract and parcel is allotted. The Division of Land Titles and Records (DLTR) compiled the data to support the Bureau of Indian Affairs. The source information for tract data is the Trust Asset and Accounting Management System (TAAMS), which is the system of record.</p>

BIA AIAN LAR (Alaska Detail)

For the contiguous U.S., please reference the BIA AIAN Land Area Representation Map here: https://bia-geospatial.maps.arcgis.com/sharing/rest/content/items/01ef53c5a989454abca926f6b5a0584c/data. The purpose of the American Indian and Alaska Native Land Area Representation (AIAN-LAR) Geographic Information System (GIS) dataset is to depict the exterior extent of land held in “trust” or “restricted fee” status by the United States for a tribe(s) and individual Indians of federally recognized Tribes. A tribe is a tribe, band, pueblo, community or other federally acknowledged group of Indians. A federally recognized tribe is an American Indian or Alaska Native tribal entity that is recognized as having a government-to-government relationship with the United States, with the responsibilities, powers, limitations, and obligations attached to that designation, and are eligible for funding and services from the BIA. Furthermore, federally recognized tribes are recognized as possessing certain inherent rights of self-government (i.e., tribal sovereignty) and are entitled to receive certain federal benefits, services, and protections because of their special relationship with the United States. At present, there are 574 federally recognized American Indian and Alaska Native tribes and villages. Not all federally recognized Tribes have a designated land area, land in trust or restricted status and therefore may not have an associated land area represented in the AIAN-LAR. Not all land areas such as public domain allotments are under the jurisdiction or associated with any particular federally recognized tribe. The BIA publishes an updated list of federally recognized tribes in a federal register notice. These data are public information and may be used and interpreted by organizations, agencies, units of government, or other entities. The user, agency or organization has sole responsibility for ensuring the appropriate use, application, integration and republication of these data. The most recent federal register notice is located at: https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2023/01/12/2023-00504/indian-entities-recognized-by-and-eligible-to-receive-services-from-the-united-states-bureau-of

BIA Surface Inventory (Pacific Region), 2025

<p>Surface trust lands are displayed and summarized in a table by Tribal entity. A Tribal entity may be a federally recognized tribe or a constituent component of a federally recognized tribe. For each Tribal entity in the table the total trust acreage is given as well as the breakout of tribal trust and allotted trust acreage. Tribal trust lands are those where a tribe is the named landowner, and the tribe has a full percentage ownership interest in the tract division. Allotted trusts consist of two definitions of allotted. An allotted land may be a land where the tribe is the named landowner but only has a partial percentage interest in the tract division. An allotted land may also be one in which an individual associate of a tribe has any percentage ownership. A trust land would be any tribal, or allotted land that can be tied back the tribal entity. For any regional trust lands that do not have an identified entity interest or have a split entity interest that does not have a clear definition of the split, the trust lands are summarized in a row labeled undesignated. The Land Area Representation (LAR), BIA Regional Boundaries, Regional and BIA offices, as well as tribal entities without land are added in each region and adjacent territories when suitable to provide context. The tribal entity names are given by common use names instead of federal register names and may be further split into subdivisions within the recognized tribe. The Land Area Representation (LAR) is a combined dataset which creates a union of trust lands and reservation extents. The polygons are organized around tribal divisions and groupings and lack disambiguation between the trust land and reservation extent components. Due to the static creation date the LAR may not match different sources for components of the LAR. The Trust Asset and Accounting Management System (TAAMS) which is the system of record for trust lands is the source for records used in acreage calculations. &nbsp;(Last calculated May 2025) Tribal lands are lands where the tribe is the named landowner, and the tribe has a full percentage ownership interest of a tract division. Allotted lands are those in which the tribe is the named landowner but is a partial percentage ownership interest of a tract division, or an allotment may be individually owned by a tribe associate with any percentage ownership interest in a tract division. Trust lands are the summed totals of tribal and allotted interests for a tribal entity.

PL477 Plan Directory

<p>Public Law 102-477 (usually referred to simply as “477”) is the Indian Employment, Training and Related Services Demonstration Act (25 U.S.C. 3401 et seq). It was passed in 1992 and has been amended twice since its inception, in 2017 by Public Law 115-93 and again in 2000 by Public Law 106-568. The Program’s primary goal is to reduce administrative time and costs for Federal Recognized Tribes and Tribal organizations so they can more effectively deliver workforce development and job training programs. This is achieved by consolidating multiple funding streams and reporting requirements, thus affording more support for job placements and case management activities. In 2022, a Memorandum of Agreement was implemented by 12 federal partners. This has increased the number of Federally Recognized Tribes interested in participating in 477 programs. The Federal programs integrated into Tribal PL 102-477 Plans are administered by the Department of the Interior (Bureau of Indian Affairs and Bureau of Indian Education); the Department of Labor (Division of Indian and Native American Programs); and the Department of Health and Human Services (Temporary Assistance for Needy Families, Child Care and Development Fund, Native Employment Works and Community Service Block Grants). In FY24, BIA facilitated the funding transfer of $346 million to 477 Program Tribes. As of December 2024, there are 83 approved Tribal 477 Plans that represent 303 Federally Recognized Tribes and include 603 individual lines of funding streams to Tribes and Tribal Organizations.</p>

Alaska Corporation Boundary

The Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act (ANCSA) of 1971 extinguished aboriginal land title and mandated the creation of private, for-profit corporations owned by Alaska Native shareholders. Alaska Native regional corporations are owned by over 140,000 Alaska Native shareholders and hold title to nearly 27 million acres of land across Alaska. Alaska Native regional corporations manage the land for the benefit of their shareholders. ANCSA divided the state into twelve regions defined by the common heritage and shared interests of the indigenous peoples within each geographic area. The regional boundaries do not represent land owned by the Alaska Native regional corporations; instead, they established which of the twelve Alaska Native regional corporations would serve the people, villages, and communities within that area. Within each region of Alaska there is a complex landscape of governance, land ownership, roles, and relationships. While there is overlap in who the organizations represent, each entity plays a distinct role. Individuals and businesses alike experience the intricate network of Alaska Native regional corporations, Alaska Native village corporations, federally recognized tribes, city and borough governments, and Alaska Native regional non-profit organizations.

BIA-OJS 2017 TLOA Report

<p>The Tribal Law and Order Act of 2010, Public Law 111-211 (TLOA) was designed to provide greater freedom for Tribal nations to design and operate their own justice systems, making Federal departments and agencies more accountable in their service of Native people and lands. TLOA specifically requires the BIA Office of Justice Services (OJS) to report on spending, staffing, and unmet needs for PS&amp;J programs in Indian Country. This report includes spending and staffing data for 2021, as well as annual cost estimates, for PS&amp;J programs. The spending displayed may vary slightly from enacted amounts due to reprogramming of funds by BIA or Tribes. To meet the reporting requirements of TLOA, this report equates spending with BIA-obligated funding for PS&amp;J programs and staffing with the filled Full Time Equivalent (FTE) positions in BIA-operated PS&amp;J programs plus estimates of FTE for Tribally-operated BIA-funded PS&amp;J programs. As a proxy for unmet needs, the report provides an estimate of total annual costs to operate appropriate-sized, fully staffed Law Enforcement andDetention/Corrections programs, as well as Tribal Courts, in Indian Country. This report does not include any funding made available for PS&amp;J purposes in Indian Country on a permanent or one-time basis by organizations other than BIA. Tribal PS&amp;J programs occasionally receive funding from Federal, State, and Tribal organizations other than BIA. The full scope of unmet needs cannot be addressed without considering non-BIA sources of funding, on which data are not readily available. To ensure consistency of data, this report uses models to estimate annual program costs and FTE needs across the board. Previous BIA efforts to use a web-based data collection survey tool accessible to Tribes on the BIA webpage, www.bia.gov, yielded information that varied substantially in degrees of completeness and proved difficult to verify. TLOA requires BIA to submit a detailed spending report and the methodology used to disburse funds for PS&amp;J programs administered by OJS. OJS allocates its recurring appropriations to 191 Law Enforcement programs; 96 Detention/Corrections programs (for 55 Tribes); 15 district, headquarters, and support offices; 230+ TribalCourts; and other BIA agency offices that support PS&amp;J programs. The BIA funds are spent either by BIA to deliver direct services or by Tribes when they contract services with funds transmitted to the Tribes through self-determination contracts or self-governance compacts, pursuant to the Indian Self-Determination and Education Assistance Act, P.L. 93-638.</p>
