The Department is proposing to
establish minimum qualifications for appraisers of Indian property
that require the submission of the appraiser’s qualifications to
the Department for verification. The Indian Trust Asset Reform Act
(ITARA) allows Tribal and individual Indian landowners to use
appraisals by qualified appraisers without further review or
approval from the Department.
Program changes resulted in the
addition of the information collection requirement, as a result of
a statutory change (ITARA), increasing the hourly burden to 465
hours. The statute requires the Department to publish minimum
qualifications for appraisers, necessitating a verification of
whether the appraisers meet those published minimum
qualifications.
