The Department of Agriculture's Office of the General Counsel reexamined whether Indian tribes in Oklahoma live on reservations and are eligible to administer food stamp and commodity distribution programs. They concluded that there are no tangible reservations in Oklahoma and questioned the existence of tribal organizations. The definition of "reservation" and "tribal organization" were discussed, and it was noted that Indian tribes in Oklahoma have assimilated into the general population and do not have established reservations. The conclusion was reached that Oklahoma Indian tribes do not live on reservations and may not be eligible to administer the programs.
