The following bill was listed in the "other" section. It should have
been listed in the "bills specifically for/about Native Americans"
section.

S.841: -- A bill to authorize construction of the Fort Peck Reservation
Rural Water System in the State of Montana, and for other purposes.
Sponsor: Sen Burns. R-MT

Also, Mike "Merlin" Means alerted us to a bill which did not turn up on
the search, but affects several Native American tribes:

S.964: -- A bill to direct a property conveyance in the State of
California. Sponsor: Sen Murkowski, R-AK (note: this bill transfers Ward
Valley, a sacred site to several tribes, to the state of California for
use as a nuclear waste dump.)
