Upon receipt of the plan from a tribal government, the Secretary
of the Interior shall consult with the Secretary of each Federal
agency providing funds to be used to implement the plan, and with
the tribal government submitting the plan. The parties so
consulting shall identify any waivers of statutory requirements or
of Federal agency regulations, policies, or procedures necessary to
enable the tribal government to implement its plan. Notwithstanding
any other provision of law, the Secretary of the affected agency
shall have the authority to waive any statutory requirement,
regulation, policy, or procedure promulgated by that agency that
has been so identified by such tribal government or agency, unless
the Secretary of the affected agency determines that such a waiver
is inconsistent with the purposes of this chapter or those
provisions of the statute from which the program involved derives
its authority which are specifically applicable to Indian programs.
