Opinion

PER CURIAM:

[59]*59We affirm the order of the Trial Division and we adopt its opinion of April 24, 1987.

Our attention was called during oral argument-to Section 2(b) of Secretarial Order No. 2657 as amended, which requires approval by the Secretary of the Interior of any legislation "affecting the powers of the legislature." We are n-c. persuaded that enactment of A.S.C.A. § 37.2030 fell into that category.
