§137.332. On what basis may the Secretary reject a final construction project proposal?
42 C.F.R. § 137.332
The only basis for rejection of project activities in a final construction project proposal are—
The amount of funds proposed in the final construction project proposal exceeds the applicable funding level for the construction project as determined under sections 508(c) [25 U.S.C. 458aaa-7(c)] and 106 of the Act [25 U.S.C. 450j-1].
The final construction project proposal does not meet the minimum content requirements for construction project agreements set forth in section 501(a)(2) of the Act [25 U.S.C. 458aaa(a)(2)]; and
The final construction project proposal on its face clearly demonstrates that the construction project cannot be completed as proposed.
For construction programs proposed to be included in a construction project agreement, the Secretary may also reject that portion of the proposal that proposes to assume an inherently Federal function that cannot legally be delegated to the Self-Governance Tribe.
