Of those 11 reservations, 8were completely burned by the Siege which scorched over 742,000 acres in all jurisdictions and was pronounced as the worst disaster in state history. Lives were lost, and hundreds of tribal members were forced out of their homes for months. 9 The Fire Siege of 2003 10 TFPA History Tribes went to Senator Feinstein and Representative Richard Pombo in California for legislation that would increase protection of tribal lands and resources throughout the United States. 11 TFPA History The Tule River Tribal Council’s testimony for the TFPA stated: “Every year we pray we are not the victims of catastrophic stand replacing fire, such as the devastation in Southern California.” The ITC’s testimony: “applauds and strongly supports the Tribal Forest Protection Act.” It is “…a good opportunity to build partnerships that can produce results on the ground where they count.” The Intertribal Timber Council testimony for the TFPA. The TFPA passed in 2004 with bilateral support. 12 Key Terms “Tribes”‐ refer to those tribal governments recognized by the federal government. “Trust Responsibility”‐ the federal government has a legal responsibility to protect the interests and rights of Tribes and their members. “Land in trust”‐ the US holds the legal title and the Tribe or individual Indian person holds the beneficial interest. 13 TFPA Background The TFPA authorizes the Secretaries of Agriculture and Interior to give special consideration to tribally‐ proposed projects on FS or Bureau of Land Management administered lands. 14 TFPA Basics Emphasizes the government‐to‐government relationship between the federal government and Tribes. Sets forth the goal for protection of trust lands. Acknowledges Tribes’ historic and cultural interests. Recognizes tribal relevant knowledge and skills. See the TFPA handout for specifics and details. 15 TFPA Basics To qualify, the land (either tribal or allotted): Must be in trust or restricted status and Must be forested or have a grass, brush, or other similar vegetation, or Formerly had a forest cover or vegetative cover that is capable of restoration. 16 TFPA Basics The Tribe must propose a specific project to take place on FS administered land which: Borders or is adjacent to Indian trust land and Poses a fire, insect infestation, disease, and/or other threat to the Indian forest land or rangeland or a tribal community; or Is in need of land restoration. 17 TFPA Basics The FS administered area for the TFPA proposal: Should present or involve a risk to a feature or circumstance unique to the proposing Tribe (e.g., a risk to treaty rights; or biological, archaeological, historical, or cultural features), and Should not be subject to some other conflicting agreement or contract. 18 TFPA Basics The FS may respond to tribal proposals within 120 days. While TFPA provides a lot of discretion to the agency, Executive Orders, agency policy and many protocol agreements encourage timely responses. Collaboration prior to the submission of a formal proposal contributes to success. 19 20 TFPA Basics The FS can enter into an agreement or contract in response to the proposal with agency appropriated funds and/or other appropriate sources of funding. Third parties may be involved in funding and doing the work on the ground. 21 TFPA Basics For contracts, the FS can use “best value” and give special consideration to tribally‐related factors such as, but not limited to: The status of the Indian Tribe; The trust status of the Tribe’s land; The cultural, traditional, and historical affiliation of the Tribe with the land subject to the proposal. 22 Tribes and the FS Share Lands and Issues Tribes and FS share nearly 3,000 miles of border and hundreds of thousands of acres of watersheds. Decreased active management of federal lands has contributed to insect outbreaks and catastrophic fires that cross boundaries. Climate change may bring more extreme events. We must work together to meet these challenges. 23 Tribes and the FS Share Landscapes and Related Issues Aroostook Band of Micmac Indians of Maine Nooksack Reservation Lummi Reservation Makah Reservation Makah Reservati on (Ozette) Upper Skagit Reservation Swinomish Reservation Houlton Band of Maliseet Okanogan NF Quil eute Reservati on Lower Elwha Reservation Hoh Reservation Jamestown Reservation Sauk-Suiattle Reservation Tulali p Reservatio n Indian and Forest Service Lands Port Gamble Reservation Colville NF Mt Baker-Snoqualmie NF Kootenai Reservation Quinault Reservation Port Madison Reservation Ol ym pic NF Passamaquoddy Tribe (Indian Township) Colville Reservation Kootenai NF Passamaquoddy Tribe (Pleasant Point) Sno qualmie Trib e Skokomish Reservation Kalispel Reservation Maine Squ axin Island Reservation Blackfeet Reservation Puyallup Reservation Okanogan -Wenatchee NFs Red Lake Trust Land Mu ck le shoo t Res e rva t ion Spokane Reservation Shoalwater Reservation Nisqually Reservation Chehalis Reservation Washington Penobscot Reservation Idaho Panhandle NF Turtle Mountain Reservation Flathead NF Rocky Boy's Reservation Red Lake Ceded Lands Fort Belknap Reservation Cowlitz Indian Tribe, Washington Coeur D'Alene Reservation Fort Peck Reservation Grand Portage Reservation Flathead Reservation Gifford Pinchot NF Bois Forte (Nett Lake) Reservation Sup eri or NF Red Lake Reservation Yakama Reservation Bois Forte (Ver million Lake) Reservation Bois Forte (Deer Creek) Reservation Spirit Lake Sioux Reservatio n Lolo NF Fort Berthold Reservation St. Regis Mohawk Reservation White Mountain NF Columbia River Gorge NSA Leech Lake Reservation Grand Ronde Reservation The Dalles Unit Clearwater NF Chippewa NF Sault Ste.

  • Ocated on the Omaha Reservation
    http://jackalopearts.org/othrp.htm ocated on the Omaha Reservation, the Omaha Tribal Historical Research Project, Inc. (OTHRP) is the cultural authority for the Omaha by Tribal Resolution [law.] As such we have been active since the mid 1970s when Dennis Hastings returned L from California to his home reservation in Nebraska and began working to restore the Omaha culture and language. Hastings started his work with Paul Brill collecting tribal genealogies and information regarding clan kinship systems and clan names using both oral histories and archival information. In 1982 Joan Mark, Peabody Museum, was researching the papers and works of Dr. Francis La Flesche, Esq. and a friendship was quickly established between Mark and Hastings. This friendship became very useful when she assisted the Tribe in reestablishing relations with the Peabody Museum when the Omaha asked for the return of their Sacred Pole and sacred artifacts in 1989. OTHRP coordinated the Omaha Tribal Council's work with the staff of the Peabody Museum for the return of all the sacred artifacts held by the museum. Their return involved special agreements with the Great Plains Studies and the Museum at the University of Nebraska in Lincoln, until such time the Tribe could assume possession by the completion of its own museum, New Moon Moving. Significant among these artifacts was the Sacred Pole, symbolizing the unity of the people. In 1985 Indiana University (IU) and the Library of Congress' American Folklife Center (AFC) joined together with Hastings upon a traditional Omaha music project with wax cylinders in order to reintroduce Omaha music in conjunction with Dorothy Sarah Lee, IU, and Dr.
