§ 1000.13 What is a “nonsignatory Tribe”?
(a) A nonsignatory Tribe is a Tribe that either:
(1) Does not meet the eligibility criteria in § 1000.16 and, by resolution of its governing body, authorizes a Consortium to participate in self-governance on its behalf.
(2) Meets the eligibility criteria in § 1000.16 but chooses to be a member of a Consortium and have a representative of the Consortium sign the compact and AFA on its behalf.
(b) A non-signatory tribe under paragraph (a)(1) of this section:
(1) May not sign the compact and AFA. A representative of the Consortium must sign both documents on behalf of the Tribe.
(2) May only become a “signatory Tribe” if it independently meets the eligibility criteria in § 1000.16.
