The policy also includes changes in job descriptions for Field Administrators to emphasize the trust responsibility and shift away from paternalistic language. The Bureau is also making changes in delegation of authority to place control at the local level and transform the Bureau into a service organization."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Carl%20Albert%20Collection,%201947-1977/Departmental,%201945-1976%20(CAC_CC_001_4_0000_0000)/CAC_CC_001_4_82_55_0000-Interior%20-%20Bureau%20of%20Indian%20Affairs%20-%20Reorganization,%201970/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_001_4_82_55_0007_thumbnail.jpg "New Policy for Employee Rotation in the Bureau of Indian Affairs")
