H.R. 931
A bill to provide for the addition of certain real property to the
reservation of the Siletz Tribe in the state of Oregon
As ordered reported by the House Committee on Natural Resources
on June 12, 2013
H.R. 931 would modify how the Secretary of the Interior evaluates land to be taken into
trust for the Confederated Tribes of Siletz Indians of Oregon. Under current law, the
Department of the Interior has two separate processes for evaluating potential trust land
depending on whether the land is located within or outside of the recognized boundaries of
the reservation. If the land is located outside of the recognized boundaries, the process
requires greater scrutiny. The bill would require the Secretary to consider certain property
that is considered off-reservation under current law as on-reservation. Under the
legislation, all property taken into trust would be considered part of the reservation.
Based on information provided by the Department of the Interior, CBO estimates that
implementing H.R. 931 would have no significant impact on the federal budget because the
cost of processing trust land applications and the cost of administering the tribes' trust
lands would not change significantly. Enacting H.R. 931 would not affect direct spending
or revenues; therefore, pay-as-you-go procedures do not apply.
H.R. 931 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the
Unfunded Mandates Reform Act.
The CBO staff contact for this estimate is Martin von Gnechten. The estimate was
approved by Theresa Gullo, Deputy Assistant Director for Budget Analysis.
