                                          [To accompany S. 2916]
                     The Committee  on Indian Affairs, to which was referred the bill
                   (S. 2916) to provide that the pueblo of Santa Clara may lease for
                   99 years certain restricted land, and for other purposes, having
                   considered the same, reports favorably thereon without amendment
                   and recommends  that the bill do pass.
                                              PURPOSE
                     The purpose of the bill, S. 2916, is to amend the Long Term Leas-
                   ing Act to clarify that the Pueblos of Santa  Clara and  Ohkay
                   Owingeh  are authorized to lease their respective tribal trust and
                   restricted fee lands for up to 99 years. Many of the tribal lands
                   within these Pueblos' respective reservations are held in restricted
                   fee simple, in addition to those lands that are held in trust by the
                   United States.
                                        NEED FOR LEGISLATION
                     The bill, S. 2916, would allow the Pueblos of Santa Clara and
                   Ohkay  Owingeh  to lease certain types of land located within the
                   Santa Clara Pueblo  Grant for purposes of economic development.
                   This legislation would make clear under the Long  Term  Leasing
                   Act that these Pueblos may   lease restricted fee lands up to 99
                   years.
