  • Tribal Great Lakes Restoration Culturally Inspired Restoration Sabin Dam Removal - Grand Traverse Band
    2019 Tribal Great Lakes Restoration Culturally Inspired Restoration Sabin Dam Removal - Grand Traverse Band Invasive Species Control - Match-E-Be-Nash-She-Wish Band Aerial Moose Survey - 1854 Treaty Authority Cover Photo: Wild Rice restored on Nottawa Creek near the Nottawaseppi Huron Band of the Potawatomi Reservation Welcome Readers Dear Reader, The Great Lakes Restoration Initiative (GLRI) began in 2010 to accelerate efforts to protect and restore the Great Lakes. With the support of GLRI, tribes have substantially increased their capacity to participate in intergovernmental resource management activities for the Great Lakes alongside federal, state and other partners to address some of the most pressing challenges facing the Great Lakes. Indian country, comprised of reservation land bases and ceded territories where tribes retain rights, represents millions of acres within the Great Lakes Basin. Since 2010, the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA), with support from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, has provided GLRI funding to more than 30 tribes and tribal organizations in the Midwest and Eastern Regions for Great Lakes protection and restoration projects. The BIA GLRI program has gradually increased, growing from $3 million in 2010 to over $11 million in 2019. In total, BIA has provided approximately $60 million in GLRI funding to tribes as of fall 2019 to implement over 500 tribally led restoration projects. These projects protected and restored 190,000 acres of habitat and approximately 550 miles of Great Lakes tributaries, and include over 40 distinct projects to protect and restore native species. The majority of tribal GLRI projects work to assess, monitor, protect and restore local waterways, habitats, and species such as lake sturgeon, moose, and wild rice essential for tribal life-ways and cultural continuity.

  • Restoring the Shiawassee Flats
    UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN SCHOOL OF NATURAL RESOURCES & ENVIRONMENT Restoring the Shiawassee Flats Estuarine Gateway to Saginaw Bay Prepared by: Janet Buchanan, Seta Chorbajian, Andrea Dominguez, Brandon Hartleben, Brianna Knoppow, Joshua Miller, Caitlin Schulze, Cecilia Seiter with historical land use analyses by Yohan Chang A project submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science at the University of Michigan April 2013 Client: Shiawassee National Wildlife Refuge Faculty advisors: Dr. Michael J. Wiley, Dr. Sara Adlerstein-Gonzalez, Dr. Kurt Kowalski (USGS-GLSC) Preface In 2011, the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service and Ducks Unlimited received a $1.5 million Sustain Our Great Lakes grant for the first phase of a wetland restoration project at the Shiawassee National Wildlife Refuge, outside Saginaw, Michigan. The ambitious project seeks to hydrologically reconnect a 2,260-acre complex of bottomland farm fields and diked wetlands to the dynamic river systems surrounding the Refuge. The goals of this restoration are to provide fish, birds, and insects with access to a large, restored wetland complex both through hydrologic reconnection and wetland restoration; and to contribute to the delisting of at least three of the Beneficial Use Impairments in the Saginaw River/Bay Area of Concern, just downstream of the Refuge. Phase I of the restoration project involves the conversion of 940 acres of former farmland, now owned by the Refuge, to ecologically productive wetland, and its hydrologic reconnection to the Shiawassee and Flint Rivers. The grant for Phase I included enough funds to complete the design, engineering, and implementation of the project.

This letter focuses on Tribal historic preservation concerns and culturally significant sites relevant to the Tittabawassee River and Saginaw River and Bay area and provides a brief introduction to sites of tribal interest for EPA's consideration. The Tribe is concerned about the potential unearthing of culturally significant artifacts and/or remains. An accidental discovery plan and proper protocol needs to be in place prior to any earth moving. Consultation with appropriate Tribal contacts and the State Historical Preservation Office will identify key personnel to establish a chain of command. Also, appropriate agencies need to be identified and contact information provided in this plan. The Ziibiwing Cultural Center, although not an official Tribal Historic Preservation Office has, in the past acted in this capacity. As such, they have provided some historic maps and an inventory of culturally significant sites relevant to the Tittabawassee River and Saginaw River and Bay area.
