The Don Young Doug LaMalfa Indian Buffalo Management Act seeks to fulfill the government-to-government relationship between Tribal Governments and the United States regarding buffalo management. Its primary purposes include promoting and developing the capacity of Indian Tribes and Tribal organizations to manage buffalo and their habitat, protecting and enhancing buffalo populations, and fostering their use for subsistence, cultural, and economic development needs. The Act directs the Secretary of the Interior to work with Indian Tribes and Tribal organizations to promote their ability to manage, protect, and enhance buffalo populations and habitat. It authorizes the Secretary to enter into contracts , cooperative agreements , and award grants to Tribes for planning and implementing buffalo restoration and management programs, commercial activities related to buffalo products, and supporting mobile Tribal meat processing facilities. Furthermore, the Secretary is mandated to provide technical assistance to Tribes and Tribal organizations receiving such funding. The bill requires ongoing consultation with Tribes on Department initiatives affecting buffalo and habitat, and the development of a policy for buffalo management on Indian land that aligns with Tribal goals and laws. The legislation also allows the Secretary to enter into agreements with Tribes to dispose of surplus buffalo from Federal land by transporting them to Indian land, with the possibility of waiving associated charges. Importantly, the Act includes provisions to protect culturally sensitive, proprietary, or confidential information provided by Tribes and explicitly states that it does not alter or diminish any Tribal treaty rights . The authority provided by this Act is set to expire seven years after its enactment.
