Who may be selected to receive a negotiation grant? Any tribe/consortium that has been accepted into the applicant pool in accordance with § 1001.5 and has been selected to negotiate a self-governance annual funding agreement is eligible to apply for a negotiation grant. Each year, we will publish a notice in the Federal Register with all relevant details as to how tribes/consortia which have been selected can apply for negotiation grants.
What must a tribe/consortium do to receive a negotiation grant?
To receive a negotiation grant, a tribe/consortium must:
Be selected from the applicant pool to negotiate an annual funding agreement;
Be identified as eligible to receive a negotiation grant; and
Not have received a negotiation grant within the 3 years preceding the date of the latest Federal Register announcement described in § 1001.7.
The tribe/consortium must submit a letter affirming its readiness to negotiate and formally request a negotiation grant to prepare for and negotiate a self-governance agreement. These grants are not competitive.
May a selected tribe negotiate without applying for a negotiation grant? Yes. In this case, the tribe should notify us in writing so that funds can be reallocated for other grants.
