List of Programs Eligible for Inclusion 

in Fiscal Year 2007 Funding 

Agreements To Be Negotiated With 

Self-Governance Tribes 

AGENCY: National Park Service, Interior. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: This notice lists programs or 

portions of programs that are eligible for 

inclusion in Fiscal Year 2007 funding 

agreements with self-governance tribes 

and lists programmatic targets pursuant 

to section 405(c)(4) of the Tribal SelfGovernance Act. 

DATES: This notice expires on 

September 30, 2007. 

ADDRESSES: Inquiries or comments 

regarding this notice may be directed to 

the American Indian Liaison Office, 

1201 Eye Street, NW., (Org. 2560, 9th 

Floor), Washington, DC 20005. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background 

Title II of the Indian SelfDetermination Act Amendments of 1994 

(Pub. L. 103–413, the ‘‘Tribal SelfGovernance Act’’ or the ‘‘Act’’) 

instituted a permanent self-governance 

program at the Department of the 

Interior (DOI). Under the selfgovernance program certain programs, 

services, functions, and activities, or 

portions thereof, in DOI bureaus other 

than the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) 

are eligible to be planned, conducted, 

consolidated, and administered by a 

self-governance tribal government. 

Under section 405(c) of the Act, the 

Secretary of the Interior is required to 

publish annually: (1) A list of non-BIA 

programs, services, functions, and 

activities, or portions thereof, that are 

eligible for inclusion in agreements 

negotiated under the self-governance 

program; and (2) programmatic targets 

for these bureaus. 

Under the Act, two categories of nonBIA programs are eligible for selfgovernance funding agreements (AFAs): 

(1) Under section 403(b)(2) of the Act, 

any non-BIA program, service, function 

or activity that is administered by DOI 

that is ‘‘otherwise available to Indian 

tribes or Indians,’’ can be administered 

by a tribal government through a selfgovernance funding agreement. The 

Department interprets this provision to 

authorize the inclusion of programs 

eligible for self-determination contracts 

under Title I of the Indian SelfDetermination and Education 

Assistance Act (Pub. L. 93–638, as 

amended). Section 403(b)(2) also 

specifies ‘‘nothing in this subsection 

may be construed to provide any tribe 

with a preference with respect to the 

opportunity of the tribe to administer 

programs, services, functions and 

activities, or portions thereof, unless 

such preference is otherwise provided 

by law.’’

(2) Under section 403(c) of the Act, 

the Secretary may include other 

programs, services, functions, and 

activities or portions thereof that are of 

‘‘special geographic, historical, or 

cultural significance’’ to a selfgovernance tribe. 

Under section 403(k) of the Act, 

funding agreements cannot include 

programs, services, functions, or 

activities that are inherently Federal or 

where the statute establishing the 

existing program does not authorize the
