§1000.1955. What are the consequences of a finding of imminent jeopardy in the Secretary's annual trust evaluation?
25 C.F.R. § 1000.1955
A finding of imminent jeopardy to a trust asset, natural resource, or public health and safety that is caused by an act or omission of the Tribe/Consortium and that arises out of a failure by the Tribe/Consortium to carry out the compact or funding agreement, triggers the Federal reassumption process (see subpart M of this part), unless the conditions in paragraph (b) of this section are met.
The reassumption process will not be triggered if the Secretary's designated representative determines that the Tribe/Consortium:
Can cure the conditions causing jeopardy within 60 days; and
Will not cause significant loss, harm, or devaluation of a trust asset, natural resources, or the public health and safety.
