SAMPSEL ANNOUNCES MAJOR CHANGES IN BIA’S
PROPOSED TRIBAL TAX GUIDELINES: Interior’s Deputy
Assistant Secretary for Indian Affairs, Roy Sampsel, announced
major changes in some controversial proposed regulations on
tribal severance taxes. Sampsel talked a t a tribal resource
development seminar, sponsored by the Council of Energy
Resource Tribes (CERT) at Golden, Colorado September 19. He
said that the purpose of the draft regulations was to provide
guidance to tribes and BIA superintendents as to what
constitutes a legally supportable ordinance and to make a policy
statement in support of tribal jurisdiction over non-Indian
through mining activity tax ordinances. Sampsel said the draft did
neither of these things. Sampsel urged tribal governments an
industry leaders to improved communications and work on ways
to commonly solve their problems.
“The industry representatives must deal with, do business with,
the tribal governments just as they do with state governments.
They must be expert in their public relations, i.e., in their tribal
relations just as they are when they do business with the non-
Indian world. They’ve got to learn to lobby the tribes just as they
would any other legislative body. Tribes, on the other hand, must
be willing to meet and deal with industry. They must not retreat
behind an impenetrable Wall of tribal sovereignty from which thev
refuse to emerge into the business world.”
.
,
Sampsel said the BIA would work with CERT and the Rocky
M ountain Oil and Gas A ssociation and any “tribal
representatives who wish to consult with us” to complete the
guidelines.
