The short answer is “no.” The lending agency will be the Rural Utility Service, which is a division of the US Department of Agriculture (USDA) administering the rural development loan program. The loan will be secured by the infrastructure improvements – not the land on which it sits – and pursuant to a loan contract (hence the need to have a limited waiver of sovereign immunity). A vast majority of the new power line will be located within a Mohave County right-of-way along Diamond Bar Road or on Bureau of Land Management (BLM) holdings, with the remaining portion located on tribal land. The USDA has no jurisdiction over tribal entities.
