![["A response to a letter from Senator Bartlett regarding funding needs for the Hammon School. The Bureau of Indian Affairs has adopted a policy of local tribal determination for resource allocation, and a planning allowance of $30,000 is available for the school in FY 1975.

![["The document from the Commissioner of Indian Affairs to Senator Bartlett discusses the future of Intermountain School, stating that it will remain open at least through the 1974-75 school year. There are discussions about potentially using the school as an inter-tribal or all-tribal school, but cost factors and impact on existing programs need to be considered. A task force is being formed to explore the possible uses of the facility, with input from Indian organizations. The document also mentions a meeting of concerned tribal leaders who oppose the closure of the school and request a study by qualified Indian educators. The document urges Senator Bartlett's assistance in the matter."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Dewey%20F.%20Bartlett%20Collection/Subject,%201946-1978-CAC_CC_003_2_0000_0000_0000/CAC_CC_003_2_34_3_0000-Indian%20Affairs,%20Intermountain%20School,%201973%20June/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_003_2_34_3_0001_thumbnail.jpg "Concerns Regarding the Future of Intermountain School")

![["The American Indian Policy Review Commission conducted a management study of the Bureau of Indian Affairs to identify problems and make recommendations for better service delivery to Indian people. The study involved private and public sector collaboration and recommended aggressive implementation for self-determination for Indian people. The Bureau of Indian Affairs, a complex organization vulnerable to inefficiency, has been a frequent target of criticism. The commission was created to review the historical and legal developments of the federal government's relationship with Indian people and make revisions to policies and programs for their benefit. The management study involved a preliminary survey to evaluate decision-making processes and information systems within the BIA."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Dewey%20F.%20Bartlett%20Collection/Subject,%201946-1978-CAC_CC_003_2_0000_0000_0000/CAC_CC_003_2_29_21_0000-Indian%20Affairs,%20American%20Indian%20Policy%20Review%20Commission,%20BIA/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_003_2_29_21_0001_thumbnail.jpg "Improving American Indian Policy: A Comprehensive Review of the Bureau of Indian Affairs Management Study")

![["A recent act of Congress has handed over the administration of some federal Indian programs to tribes, representing a \"threshhold\" in United States policy. The act allows for the transfer of programs to tribes, but funding and implementation remain uncertain. Urban Indians are not recognized under the act, and there may be challenges in coordinating programs among the 60 recognized tribes. The act is seen as a step towards Indian self-determination, but its effectiveness and impact remain to be seen."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Dewey%20F.%20Bartlett%20Collection/Subject,%201946-1978-CAC_CC_003_2_0000_0000_0000/CAC_CC_003_2_33_10_0000-Indian%20Self-determination,%201953/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_003_2_33_10_0033_thumbnail.jpg "The Indian Self-Determination Act: A New Era for Tribal Programs")

![["The Anadarko Area Office reorganization was approved in August 1975 to reduce the number of Branch Chiefs reporting to the Area Director and provide a more organized structure. The reorganization resulted in the creation of a new Division of Indian Services and demotions for some employees. Reduction-in-force procedures were applied to employees affected by the reorganization, with salary retention for a two-year period. Some employees have appealed to the Civil Service Commission. Internal movements of employees are expected, but no adverse effects are anticipated. Grade reductions were likely to occur regardless of the reorganization due to a recent Civil Service Commission audit."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Dewey%20F.%20Bartlett%20Collection/Subject,%201946-1978-CAC_CC_003_2_0000_0000_0000/CAC_CC_003_2_30_3_0000-Indian%20Affairs,%20Bureau%20of%20Indian%20Affairs,%20Anadarko%20Office/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_003_02_30_03_0005_thumbnail.jpg "Anadarko Area Office Reorganization and Personnel Changes")
![["Senator Jackson, Chairman of the Interior & Insular Affairs Committee, provided an update on the status of S. 1017, the Indian Self-Determination and Educational Reform Act. The bill was sent back to the Committee for further consideration due to concerns raised about Part A of Title II. Efforts were made to draft amendments to address these concerns, including one that would allocate funds for special programs for Indian pupils.
