By September 30, 2023, the coordination of IA, SOL, and BLM activities will reduce the average time of processing land into trust applications from 985 days to 365 days in order to better meet the principles and guidelines established in the Indian Reorganization Act and reaffirmed in the Indian Self-Determination and Education Assistance Act.
