What the document says“shall not be subject to any provision of law providing for the review or approval by the Secretary of the Interior before the Tribes may use the land for any purpose as allowed by the document titled ``Covenant Between the Oglala Sioux Tribe and the Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe'' and dated October 21, 2022, directly, or through agreement with another party.”
Paragraph (1), subparagraph (E), the last element of the definition. It places the land outside any provision of law calling for review or approval by the Secretary of the Interior before the Tribes use it for a purpose the covenant of October 21, 2022 allows, whether they act directly or by agreement with another party. The covenant is named, not reproduced, and is not indexed here.
What the document actually says“shall not be subject to any provision of law providing for the review or approval by the Secretary of the Interior before the Tribes may use the land for any purpose as allowed by the document titled ``Covenant Between the Oglala Sioux Tribe and the Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe'' and dated October 21, 2022, directly, or through agreement with another party.”
The tribes do not need to ask the land agency first. They may use the land for any use the pact allows.
The pact is a deal the two tribes signed in October 2022. The tribes may act on their own. They may also work with another party.
