A tribal government may use plan funds for job creation and economic development when the spending meets the stated regional and program-purpose conditions. It may use the greater of the local unemployment rate, up to 25%, or 10% for job opportunities.
(a) A tribal government’s plan may spend funds to create jobs and develop the tribal government’s or individual Indians’ economic resources if the spending fits an overall regional economic activity reasonably likely to succeed and fits the purposes specifically applicable to Indian programs under the statute authorizing the funds. (b)(1) Despite other law, including requirements of an integrated program*, the tribal government may use the percentage determined under paragraph (2) to create jobs, including private-sector training placement under section 3409. (2) The percentage is the greater of (A) the tribe’s service-area unemployment rate, up to 25%, or (B) 10%. (c) Spending under subsection (a) may use only funds a Federal agency makes available under a statutory or administrative formula.
The plan submitted by a tribal government may involve the expenditure of funds for the creation of employment opportunities and for the development of the economic resources of the tribal government or of individual Indian people if such expenditures are consistent with an overall regional economic activity which has a reasonable likelihood of success and consistent with the purposes specifically applicable to Indian programs in the statute under which the funds are authorized.
Notwithstanding any other provisions of law, including any requirement of a program* that is integrated under a plan under this chapter, a tribal government may use a percentage of the funds made available under this chapter (as determined under paragraph (2)) for the creation of employment opportunities, including providing private sector training placement under section 3409 of this title.
