  6. Upcoming USDA Tribal Consultation:May 1 & 2, 2019 in DC Designation Form to be copied onto Tribal Letterhead Ms. Diane L. Cullo Acting Director, Office of Tribal Relations US Department of Agriculture 1400 Independence Ave., SW Suite 501A Washington, DC 20250 Dear Ms. Cullo: Under Executive Order 13175, “Consultation and Coordination with Indian Tribal Governments,” and USDA Departmental Regulation 1350-002 “Tribal Consultation, Coordination, and Collaboration,” USDA aims to respect Indian tribal self-government and sovereignty, honor tribal treaty and other rights, and meet the responsibilities that arise from the unique legal relationship between the Federal government and Tribal governments. Because duly-elected tribal leaders, or their designee, trigger the government-to-government relationship with the United States, formal administrative requirements under the Federal Advisory Committee Act do not apply. (See the Federal Advisory Committee Act, FACA; 5 U.S.C. Appendix – Federal Advisory Committee Act; 86 Stat. 770, as amended.) I am unable to attend the meeting to discuss the 2018 Farm Bill on May 1, 2019 - May 2, 2019 in Washington DC. I hereby designate _________________________ who holds the position of ________________________________ within the Tribe to act as my proxy for this meeting. The proxy designation will expire on [DATE – 3 MONTHS AFTER CONSULTATION]. Sincerely, Native Farm Bill Coalition
