    TITLE 25 - INDIANS
    CHAPTER 4 - PERFORMANCE BY UNITED STATES OF OBLIGATIONS TO INDIANS
    SUBCHAPTER III - DEPOSIT, CARE, AND INVESTMENT OF INDIAN MONEYS
-HEAD-
    Sec. 155b. Proceeds of labor accounts; deposits limited to funds
      held in trust for Indian tribes or individuals
-STATUTE-
      Except in the case of funds held in trust for Indian tribes or
    individuals, the funds available for expenditure under the "Indian
    moneys, proceeds of labor" accounts authorized by section 155 of
    this title may be expended until September 30, 1982 for any purpose
    for which funds are appropriated under the subheading "Operation of
    Indian Programs".
      No funds shall be deposited in such "Indian money, proceeds of
    labor" (IMPL) accounts after September 30, 1982. The unobligated
    balance in IMPL accounts as of the close of business on September
    30, 1982, including the income resulting from the investment of
    funds from such accounts prior to such date, shall be transferred
    to and held in escrow accounts at the locations of the IMPL
    accounts from which they are transferred. Funds in such escrow
    accounts may be invested as provided in section 162a of this title
    and the investment income added to such accounts. The Secretary
    shall determine no later than September 30, 1985 (after
    consultation with appropriate tribes and individual Indians) the
    extent to which the funds held in such escrow accounts represent
    income from the investment of special deposits relating to specific
    tribes or individual Indians. Upon such a determination by the
    Secretary and express acceptance of the determination by the
    beneficiary, the Secretary shall transfer such funds to trust
    accounts for such tribes or individual Indians. Not more than ten
    percent of the funds transferred to trust accounts for any tribe or
    individual Indian under this provision may be utilized to pay for
    legal or other representation relating to claims for such funds.
    Not to exceed two percent of the funds transferred from the IMPL
    accounts shall be available to reimburse the Bureau of Indian
    Affairs for administrative expenses incurred in determining
    ownership of the funds. Acceptance of a determination by the
    Secretary and the transfer of funds under this provision shall
    constitute a complete release and waiver of any and all claims by
    the beneficiary against the United States relating to the
    unobligated balance of IMPL accounts as of the close of business on
    September 30, 1982. During the period of October 1, 1985 through
    September 30, 1987, or earlier if a Secretarial determination on
    ownership and appropriate fund transfers has been completed, the
    funds remaining in such escrow accounts because they have not been
    transferred to trust accounts, may be expended subject to the
    approval of the Secretary for any purpose authorized under section
    13 of this title and requested by the respective governing bodies
    of the tribes at the locations where such accounts are maintained.
    The unobligated balances of such escrow accounts as of the close of
    business on September 30, 1987, shall be deposited into
    miscellaneous receipts of the Treasury.

    CHAPTER 4 - PERFORMANCE BY UNITED STATES OF OBLIGATIONS TO INDIANS

-HEAD-
    Sec. 162a. Deposit of tribal funds in banks; bond or collateral
      security; investments; collections from irrigation projects;
      affirmative action required
-STATUTE-
    (a) Deposit of tribal trust funds in banks
      The Secretary of the Interior is hereby authorized in his
    discretion, and under such rules and regulations as he may
    prescribe, to withdraw from the United States Treasury and to
    deposit in banks to be selected by him the common or community
    funds of any Indian tribe which are, or may hereafter be, held in
    trust by the United States and on which the United States is not
    obligated by law to pay interest at higher rates than can be
    procured from the banks. The said Secretary is also authorized,
    under such rules and regulations as he may prescribe, to withdraw
    from the United States Treasury and to deposit in banks to be
    selected by him the funds held in trust by the United States for
    the benefit of individual Indians: Provided, That no individual
    Indian money shall be deposited in any bank until the bank shall
    have agreed to pay interest thereon at a reasonable rate, subject,
    however, to the regulations of the Board of Governors of the
    Federal Reserve System in the case of member banks, and of the
    Board of Directors of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation in
    the case of insured nonmember banks, except that the payment of
    interest may be waived in the discretion of the Secretary of the
    Interior on any deposit which is payable on demand: Provided
    further, That no tribal or individual Indian money shall be
    deposited in any bank until the bank shall have furnished an
    acceptable bond or pledged collateral security therefor in the form
    of any public-debt obligations of the United States and any bonds,
    notes, or other obligations which are unconditionally guaranteed as
    to both interest and principal by the United States, except that no
    such bond or collateral shall be required to be furnished by any
    such bank which is entitled to the benefits of section 12B of the
    Federal Reserve Act, with respect to any deposits of such tribal or
    individual funds to the extent that such deposits are insured under
    such section: Provided, however, That nothing contained in this
    section, or in section 12B of the Federal Reserve Act, shall
    operate to deprive any Indian having unrestricted funds on deposit
    in any such bank of the full protection afforded by section 12B of
    the Federal Reserve Act, irrespective of any interest such Indian
    may have in any restricted Indian funds on deposit in the same bank
    to the credit of a disbursing agent of the United States. For the
    purpose of this section and said Act, said unrestricted funds shall
    constitute a separate and distinct basis for an insurance claim:
    Provided further, That the Secretary of the Interior, if he deems
    it advisable and for the best interest of the Indians, may invest
    the trust funds of any tribe or individual Indian in any public-
    debt obligations of the United States and in any bonds, notes, or
    other obligations which are unconditionally guaranteed as to both
    interest and principal by the United States: And provided further,
    That the foregoing shall apply to the funds of the Osage Tribe of
    Indians, and the individual members thereof, only with respect to
    the deposit of such funds in banks.
    (b) Investment of collections from irrigation projects and power
      operations on irrigation projects
      The Secretary of the Interior is authorized to invest any
    operation and maintenance collections from Indian irrigation
    projects and revenue collections from power operations on Indian
    irrigation projects in - 
        (1) any public-debt obligations of the United States;
        (2) any bonds, notes, or other obligations which are
      unconditionally guaranteed as to both principal and interest by
      the United States; or
        (3) any obligations which are lawful investments for trust
      funds under the authority or control of the United States.
    The Secretary of the Interior is authorized to use earning (!1)
    from investments under this subsection to pay operation and
    maintenance expenses of the project involved.
    (c) Investment of tribal trust funds in public debt obligations
      (1) Notwithstanding subsection (a) of this section, the Secretary
    of the Interior, at the request of any Indian tribe, in the case of
    trust funds of such tribe, or any individual Indian, in the case of
    trust funds of such individual, is authorized to invest such funds,
    or any part thereof, in guaranteed or public debt obligations of
    the United States or in a mutual fund, otherwise known as an open-
    ended diversified investment management company if - 
        (A) the portfolio of such mutual fund consists entirely of
      public-debt obligations of the United States, or bonds, notes, or
      other obligations which are unconditionally guaranteed as to both
      interest and principal by the United States, or a combination
      thereof;
        (B) the trust funds to be invested exceed $50,000;
        (C) the mutual fund is registered by the Securities and
      Exchange Commission; and
        (D) the Secretary is satisfied with respect to the security and
      protection provided by the mutual fund against loss of the
      principal of such trust funds.
      (2) The Secretary, as a condition to complying with a request
    pursuant to paragraph (1) of this subsection, is authorized to
    require such tribe or individual Indian, as the case may be, to
    enter into an agreement with the Secretary for the purpose of
    relieving the United States of any liability in connection with the
    interest, or amount thereof, payable in connection with such trust
    funds so invested during the period of that investment.
      (3) Investments pursuant to paragraph (1) of this subsection
    shall be deemed to be the same as cash or a bank deposit for
    purposes of section 955 of this title.
    (d) Trust responsibilities of Secretary of the Interior
      The Secretary's proper discharge of the trust responsibilities of
    the United States shall include (but are not limited to) the
    following:
        (1) Providing adequate systems for accounting for and reporting
      trust fund balances.
        (2) Providing adequate controls over receipts and
      disbursements.
        (3) Providing periodic, timely reconciliations to assure the
      accuracy of accounts.
        (4) Determining accurate cash balances.
        (5) Preparing and supplying account holders with periodic
      statements of their account performance and with balances of
      their account which shall be available on a daily basis.
        (6) Establishing consistent, written policies and procedures
      for trust fund management and accounting.
        (7) Providing adequate staffing, supervision, and training for
      trust fund management and accounting.
        (8) Appropriately managing the natural resources located within
      the boundaries of Indian reservations and trust lands.
