Tribal Governments Clause Examples

The "Tribal Governments" clause defines the rights, responsibilities, or special considerations applicable to Native American tribal governments within the context of the agreement. This clause may specify how the agreement interacts with tribal sovereignty, outline any exemptions or compliance requirements unique to tribal entities, or clarify jurisdictional matters when tribal lands or authorities are involved. Its core function is to ensure that the legal status and autonomy of tribal governments are respected and clearly addressed, thereby preventing conflicts or misunderstandings regarding the application of the agreement to tribal parties.

All employers, including the Contractor, that employ subject workers who work under this Contract in the State of Oregon shall comply with ORS 656.017, and provide the required workers' compensation coverage, unless such employers are exempt under ORS 656.126.

Tribal Governments. There are 229 federally recognized tribes in Alaska. Most have tribal councils as their governing bodies. There are a variety of names for these councils including ‘Native council,’ ‘tribal council,’ ‘IRA council,’ ‘village council,’ and ‘traditional council.’ All of these refer to the governing body of a tribe. Tribes and Tribal Governments are distinct from ANCSA Regional and Village Corporations. Even though ANCSA places its land entitlement with the ANCSA Corporations, most tribes in Alaska own some land. Tribes have acquired land through various means including purchases, gifts, and through land transfers from ANCSA Corporations and cities. Tribally owned parcels range from small lots to large tracts transferred from ANCSA Corporations. Tribally owned land is in fee simple status and in Alaska is not considered held in Trust for jurisdictional purposes, and at this time cannot be converted into Trust status.

Tribally owned lands are in fee simple status and in Alaska are not considered held in Trust for jurisdictional purposes. Under fee-to-trust regulations (25 CFR 151) Alaska Native individuals and tribal landowners have the option of asking the federal government to place their lands into federal trust status. Land transferred by an ANCSA corporation to a tribe, land transferred to a tribe by a municipality, townsite lots that were deeded to a tribe, Native Allotments, lands donated or gifted to a tribe or individual, and lands purchased by a tribe may be eligible for trust status. As of March 1, 2018, the only approved fee-to-trust land in the State is a 1-acre parcel placed into trust by the Xxxxx Tribal Association.
