25 U.S.C. § 4113 — Review of plans

(a) Review and notice. (1) The Secretary^* must conduct a limited review of each Indian housing plan^* to make sure it meets section 4112. The Secretary may review only as much as the Secretary considers necessary. (2) Within 60 days after receiving the plan, the Secretary must tell the Indian tribe^* and any tribally designated housing entity whether the plan complies. If the Secretary does not give the required notice under this subsection and subsection (b), then, when the 60 days ends, the plan is treated, for purposes of this chapter, as having been determined to comply with section 4112, and the tribe is treated as having been notified of compliance. (b) If the Secretary finds that the submitted plan does not comply with section 4112, the notice must state^* the reasons and the changes needed for compliance. (c) After a plan, amendment, or modification is submitted, the Secretary must review it as far as the Secretary considers necessary to decide whether it (1) includes information required by section 4112; (2) agrees with information and data available to the Secretary; and (3) is not prohibited by or inconsistent with this chapter or other applicable law. If any required certification under section 4112(c)(5) is missing, the plan is incomplete. (d) After a tribe submits a plan for one tribal program year, it may satisfy section 4112 for a later year by submitting only information needed to update the earlier plan. (e) For information included under subsections (b)(4) and (c)(7), the Secretary may review it only to decide whether it is included to comply with section 4145a(b)(2). The Secretary may not approve or disapprove a plan based on the particular benefits, activities, or results included there.
