## Abstract

We are issuing a final rule removing the text of certain sections and thereafter reserving those sections of the regulations pertaining to approval by the Secretary of the Interior of tribal attorney contracts, except for those entered into by the Five Civilized Tribes (Cherokee, Choctaw, Chickasaw, Creek and Seminole) in Oklahoma. Congress repealed our statutory authority for such approvals of tribal attorney contracts as part of the Indian Tribal Economic Development and Contract Encouragement Act of 2000.
