appropriated to pay a judgment of the Indian Claims Commission or Court

plan for the use of the funds was submitted to Congress with a letter
dated June 21, 1994, and was received (as recorded in the Congressional
Record) by the Senate on June 30, 1994, and by the House of
Representatives on June 24, 1994. The plan became effective September
28, 1994, as provided by the 1973 Act, as amended by Pub.L. 97-458,
since a joint resolution disapproving it was not enacted. The plan
reads as follows: Plan for the Use of Judgment Funds Awarded to the
Pueblo of Nambe in Docket No. 358 before the United States Court of
Federal Claims
The funds appropriated March 31, 1994, in satisfaction of the award
granted to the Pueblo of Nambe in Docket 358 before the U.S. Court of
Federal Claims, less attorney fees, litigation and related expenses,
and including all interest and investment income accrued, shall be used
to pay outstanding debts for legal services provided to the Pueblo
which are authorized by the Tribal Council. The remainder of the funds
shall be used for tribal social, recreational, and economic development
programs including, but not limited to, land purchases, which are
authorized by the Tribal Council.
All trust responsibility of the United States for the investment or
use of the judgment funds after their transfer to the Pueblo shall
cease at the time the funds are transferred to the Pueblo of Nambe.
None of the funds shall be distributed as per capita or dividend
payments.
