3. Adopt Domestic Animals Rules # 1 Emergency Rule: Licensing, Fees, Fines, and
Penalties (00:20:05)

Ayes:

Lisa Summers
Not Present:
Daniel Guzman King, Trish King
For the record:
Secretary Lisa Summers stated I completely understand why you are
asking for us to do an emergency adoption here for the fee and the fine
schedule and the licensing schedule. I understand that. However, I don’t
feel like lack of planning somebody else’s part constitutes an emergency
action on our part especially because we’ve been very clear about the
limited use of emergency rule and the licensing fees, fines, and penalties
on the surface of themselves to me doesn’t constitute an emergency
because any kind of things that becomes a hazard to the community can
still be addressed by the Police Department, if it’s necessary, or by
Environmental or whatever. Because there’s other rules that can suffice
for that point. So, I’m just not comfortable with it and I want that message
to be carried back that the planning part has to be done and we’ve been
running into this with all of the rulemaking including one in our office that
we needed an extension for twice. So, I get it. I get that we’re still trying
to work through these quirks that are a result of our new rules. At the
same time though, I don’t feel like it’s appropriate for us to do these from
an emergency perspective when there could have been planning done
ahead of time and the hearing could have been done and all of those
necessary steps that needed to be done in order for this to approved
according to our normal process.

Dear Tribal Leader:

Part 151. The session was well attended and we received important feedback from tribal
leaders. During the session, we heard repeated calls for additional time and sessions to
consult on the draft revisions. In response to your requests and in light of other
scheduling conflicts, I am announcing a new, revised consultationto begin in January
2018. The previously scheduled sessions in November will be held in Januaryand
February instead.

Please RSVP to consultation@bia.gov if you plan on attending any of these sessions.
Additionally, based on the initial input received in response to the draft revisions
provided with my October 4 letter to you, a broader discussion about the direction of
updates to Part 151 may be more appropriate. In that vein, I suggest we consult instead
on a list of questions, some of which were included in my October 4 letter:
1. What should the objective of the land-into-trust program be? What should the
Department be working to accomplish?
