It is within the central part of the Kootenay Arc, a north-trending arcuate structural zone that lies east of the Shuswap MetamorphicComplex and merges in the east with the Purcell anticlinorium. Rocks within theRiondel area havebeen correlated with a Lower Paleozoic sequence exposed along the trend of the arc to the north and south. This sequence includes domi- nantlyquartzite andschist of theHamill Group, overlain by interlayered calcareous schist, quartzite, and marble of the Mohican Formation, a persistent and extensive Lower Cambrian marble, the Badshot Formation, and dominantly micaceous schist, calc-silicate gneiss, and amphibolite gneiss of the basal part of the Lardeau Group. The structure of the area is dominated by a series of west-dipping tight toisoclinal folds (Phase 2) that are superposed on the inverted underlimb ofan earlier recumbent anticlinal structure, named theRiondel nappe.

  • KR/KL Burbot Conservation Strategy
    January 2005 Citation: KVRI Burbot Committee. 2005. Kootenai River/Kootenay Lake Conservation Strategy. Prepared by the Kootenai Tribe of Idaho with assistance from S. P. Cramer and Associates. 77 pp. plus appendices. Conservation strategies delineate reasonable actions that are believed necessary to protect, rehabilitate, and maintain species and populations that have been recognized as imperiled, but not federally listed as threatened or endangered under the US Endangered Species Act. This Strategy resulted from cooperative efforts of U.S. and Canadian Federal, Provincial, and State agencies, Native American Tribes, First Nations, local Elected Officials, Congressional and Governor’s staff, and other important resource stakeholders, including members of the Kootenai Valley Resource Initiative. This Conservation Strategy does not necessarily represent the views or the official positions or approval of all individuals or agencies involved with its formulation. This Conservation Strategy is subject to modification as dictated by new findings, changes in species status, and the completion of conservation tasks. 2 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The Kootenai Tribe of Idaho would like to thank the Kootenai Valley Resource Initiative (KVRI) and the KVRI Burbot Committee for their contributions to this Burbot Conservation Strategy. The Tribe also thanks the Boundary County Historical Society and the residents of Boundary County for providing local historical information provided in Appendix 2. The Tribe also thanks Ray Beamesderfer and Paul Anders of S.P. Cramer and Associates for their assistance in preparing this document. Funding was provided by the Bonneville Power Administration through the Northwest Power and Conservation Council’s Fish and Wildlife Program, and by the Idaho Congressional Delegation through a congressional appropriation administered to the Kootenai Tribe by the Department of Interior.

These reports are narrative outlines of how Indian and non-native populations have used these -rivers, with emphasis on navigability, tidal influence, riparian interests, settlement patterns, commercial use and fishing rights. These historical reports were requested by the Interdepartmental Reserve Boundary Review Committee, a body comprising representatives from Indian Affairs and Northern Development [DIAND], Justice, Energy, Mines and Resources [EMR], and chaired by Fisheries and Oceans. The committee is tasked with establishing a government position on reserve boundaries that can assist in determining the area of application of Indian Band fishing by-laws.

  • Indian Country Community Safety Strategy 2018 Update
    Bart M. Davis United States Attorney, D. Idaho United States Attorney’s Office District of Idaho Indian Country Community Safety Strategy 2018 Update Our Indian Country1 community safety strategy, first issued in February 2011, is designed to improve public safety in Idaho’s tribal communities. Our office has a long history of meaningful involvement with Idaho’s five federally recognized tribes. Public safety in Indian Country requires collaboration between the U.S. Attorney’s Office, federal, state, local and tribal law enforcement, community and tribal leaders and the communities themselves. This updated strategy reaffirms the steps put in place over seven years ago, highlights successes, and identifies areas for improvement in public safety work in Indian Country. Indian Country and Idaho The federal government’s relationship with the tribes of what became the State of Idaho began in the fall of 1805 with Lewis and Clark’s Corps of Discovery and the Shoshone and Nez Perce tribes. As is well known, these two tribes played crucial roles in the Corps’ success, with the Shoshone guiding, interpreting and facilitating peaceful interaction with other tribes. When the early snows of high country came, the Nez Perce provided crucial food, canoes and directions. Over the years, the relationships between the various states and tribes have ebbed and flowed. Likewise, the relationship between the federal government and the tribes have navigated a minefield of federal laws addressing tribes’ status, resources and ability to police their own lands. One aspect of the relationship, however, has remained constant. The federal government has treaty and trust obligations to ensure public safety for Native Americans.

SAYRE rot &?+ *$$&&*? *• I^JJMJWW' 1 - *- \£*- ; * M: . * *>. f* j*^* */ ^ *** - • CHIEF SEATTLE Leader of his people both in peace and war, always a friend to the whites; as an orator, the Daniel Webster of his race. Note this excerpt, seldom surpassed in beauty of thought and diction, from his address to Governor Stevens: Why should I mourn at the untimely fate of my people? Tribe follows tribe, and nation follows nation, like the waves of the sea. It is the order of nature and regret is useless. Your time of decay may be distant — but it will surely come, for even the White Man whose God walked and talked with him as friend with friend cannot be exempt from the common destiny. We may be brothers after all. Let the White Man be just and deal kindly with my people, for the dead are not powerless. Dead — I say? There is no death. Only a change of worlds.
