Scope and Contents

Mrs. Loving called the D.O. requesting information on Indian road money, including how many states are eligible to receive it, how it is divided, and if there are administrative fees. Oklahoma has received approximately $1 million out of several million dollars available, but this information was incorrect. The Bureau of Indian Affairs states that approximately 27 states are eligible to receive the money, it is currently divided based on population, mileage, and land formula, and administrative fees are unknown. Oklahoma received $2 million in 1973 and it is unknown what they will receive in 1975. The information is needed by a meeting on Feb. 7.
