161.369 INDIAN EMPLOYMENT PREFERENCE.
As authorized by United States Code, title 23, section 140, paragraph (d), the commissioner may implement an Indian employment preference for members of federally recognized Tribes on projects carried out under United States Code, title 23, on or near an Indian reservation. For purposes of this section, a project is near an Indian reservation if the project is within the distance a person seeking employment could reasonably be expected to commute to and from each workday. The commissioner, in consultation with federally recognized Minnesota Tribes, may determine when a project is near an Indian reservation.
