What the document says
“The term ``applicable Bureau office'' means-- (A) a Regional office of the Bureau; (B) an Agency office of the Bureau; or (C) a Land Titles and Records Office of the Bureau.”
The deadlines in section 3 run against an applicable Bureau office, and this definition fixes which offices those are: Regional, Agency, and Land Titles and Records offices.
What the document actually says
“The term ``applicable Bureau office'' means-- (A) a Regional office of the Bureau; (B) an Agency office of the Bureau; or (C) a Land Titles and Records Office of the Bureau.”
That sentence, in plain words
The law says BIA office. It means one of three kinds. One is a Regional office. One is an Agency office. One is a Land Titles and Records Office.
What this is about
The BIA is the Bureau of Indian Affairs. It runs many offices. Only these three kinds do the work in this law.
