Summary

Amends the American Indian Trust Fund Management Reform Act of 1994 to establish within the Department of the Interior the Office of Special Trustee for Data Cleanup and Internal Control. Requires the Special Trustee to be appointed by the Department's Inspector General, to report directly to the Secretary of the Interior, and to: (1) oversee specified subprojects identified in the Draft Trust Management Improvement Project Subproject Task Updates, dated April 1999; (2) oversee the expenditure of funds for the subprojects, including the approval or modification of contracts; and (3) make employment decisions for each of the positions funded for such projects. Requires that the Special Trustee ensure that activities are carried out under this Act through contracts entered into with private entities or through the retention of the temporary services of trust management specialists. Declares that the Special Trustee shall continue to be responsible for overseeing such activities if they are altered or amended as a result of any modifications to the Department's Trust Management Improvement Project, High Level Implementation Plan (dated July 28, 1998).
