§161.5. Can BIA waive the application of this part?
25 C.F.R. § 161.5
Yes. If a provision of this part conflicts with the objectives of the agricultural resource management plan provided for in § 161.200, or with a tribal law, BIA may waive the application of this part unless the waiver would either:
Constitute a violation of a federal statute or judicial decision; or
Conflict with BIA's general trust responsibility under federal law.
