170.412—How is the tribal IRR long-range transportation plan developed and approved?

(a) The tribal IRR long-range transportation plan is developed by:
(1) A tribe working through a self-determination contract or self-governance agreement or other funding sources; or
(2) BIA upon request of, and in consultation with, a tribe. The tribe and BIA need to agree on the methodology and elements included in development of the IRR long-range transportation plan along with time frames before work begins.
(b) During the development of the IRR long-range transportation plan, the tribe and BIA should jointly conduct a midpoint review.
(c) The public reviews a draft IRR long-range transportation plan as required by § 170.413. The plan is further refined to address any issues identified during the public review process. The tribe then approves the IRR long-range transportation plan.
