INTRODUCTION 5 The Pimas and Maricopas of the Gila River Indian Community, perhaps of all 6 American Indian tribes, epitomize the agrarian, pastoral, and civilized communities 7 envisioned when the federal government sought to restrict native people to ever- 8 diminishing reservations. The Pima and Maricopa people were generally cordial 9 and helpful to the Europeans and Americans who entered and settled within their 10 aboriginal range. Their hospitality was not always returned in kind, as settlers 11 continually encroached on Indian lands and water. 12 The Pimas and Maricopas of the Gila River Indian Reservation, established by 13 Congress in 1859, had abundant arable lands but the misfortune of a middle-river 14 location that allowed upstream settlers, who moved into the upper valley from 15 Florence to the Duncan-Virden area starting in the 1860s, to easily diminish Gila 16 River flows. Having assumed fiduciary obligations for these Indian people, the 17 United States government undertook a series of initiatives to secure adequate water 18 for the reservation. During the 50 years from 1875 to 1925, the federal government 19 sought to buffer Indian agriculture by additions to the reservation made through a 20 series of seven presidential executive orders (expanding the size of the reservation 21 from 100 to 580 square miles); encouraged Indian groundwater use; authorized and 22 constructed the San Carlos Project, a collection of water storage and distribution 23 facilities (most notably Coolidge Dam and San Carlos Reservoir); and initiated GRICReport/FINAL/June30,2000 4 1 federal court litigation, now widely known as Globe Equity No. 59,1 to settle water 2 rights on the upper mainstem of the Gila River. 3 For the 65-year period since it was entered in 1935, the Globe Equity consent 4 decree has comprised the “law of the Gila River” although the meaning of the legal 5 regime has often been litigated and debated. Although among the principal 6 beneficiaries of the Globe Equity Decree, the Gila River Indian Community (GRIC) is 7 not a party to the decree. Indeed, its predecessor, the Pima Indian Tribal Council, 8 was denied the opportunity to intervene and participate in the Globe Equity 9 litigation, days before the consent decree was entered. Until 1982, the interests of 10 these Indians in the Gila River were asserted by the United States, although the 11 fidelity of federal representation has often been challenged by the Community in 12 other venues. Simply stated, the Community does not believe the Globe Equity 13 Decree embodies all of their rights and interests to the Gila River and its tributaries. 14 Arizona’s general stream adjudication has applied another layer of 15 complexity to the upper Gila River and the Community’s rights in those waters. 16 The Gila River Indian Community, supported by the United States, believes that 17 additional water rights beyond those established in Globe Equity can be claimed and 18 established in the Gila River system through this state court adjudication. Non- 19 Indian claimants assert that the Community’s claims to Gila River water are limited 20 by the preclusive effect of the Globe Equity Decree and certain contractual obligations 21 entered into by the Community or

The lawsuit, filed in Arizona federal court in 2015, challenged the constitutionality of the Indian Child Welfare Act, a federal law which requires state courts to apply certain standards to dependency and adoption cases involving Indian children. Although children from the Community and Navajo Nation were identified in the lawsuit, the Goldwater Institute attempted to block the participation of both tribes in the case. The tribes were eventually permitted to intervene in the lawsuit and join in arguments seeking dismissal of the case. The federal court ruled against the Goldwater Institute and the lawsuit was dismissed by the federal court in March of 2017, after which Goldwater appealed to the Ninth Circuit. Today’s decision also dismisses the case. Child welfare experts often refer to ICWA as the “gold standard” of child welfare laws. ICWA was enacted because Native American children were being removed from Indian homes at alarming rates and often without notice to immediate family members, close relatives or tribal authorities.

Tribal experiences and lessons learned in riparian ecosystem restoration Ronald K. Miller’, James E. Enote*, and Cameron L. Martinez3 Abstract.-Riparian ecosystems have been part of the culture of land use of native peoples in the Southwest United States for thousands of years. The experiences of tribal riparian initiatives to incorporate modern elements of environment and development with cultural needs are relatively few. This paper describes tribal case examples and approaches in riparian manage- ment which may advance discussions of cultural values in resource manage- ment for rural and developing communities such as those on tribal lands in the United States.
