This letter is to inform you that the Sams Valley Reinforcement Project Environmental Assessment (EA) is available for your review on the Pac ific Power's project website at: https://www.pacificpower.net/ed/tp/sams-valley.html and BLM's national register website at: https://eplanning.blm.gov/epl-front­ office/eplanning/planAndProjectSite.do?methodName=renderDefaultPlanOrProjcctSite&projectI d=53292&dctmld=Ob0003e88091174 I. The EA analyzed the following activities proposed on ELM-administered lands located between Sams Valley, nonhwcst of the city of Medford, and Grants Pass, Oregon in the Grants Pass­ Rogue River, Evans Creek, and Gold Gill-Rogue River 5th field watersheds (sec attached map). The Sams Valley Reinforcement Project Arca is located on SLM-administered lands in T. 35S. R. 2 and 3W; T. 36S, R. 2, 3, and 4W; and T. 36N, R SW., Wi llamette Meridian; Jackson County, Oregon. What is the Sam's Va lley Rein fo rcement Project? Pacific Power proposes to construct, operate, and maintai n a new 230-kilovolt (kV) transmission line which will run from the existing Grants Pass Substation in Josephine County near Grants Pass, Oregon cast to a proposed new 500-kV substation in Jackson Count y, Oregon north or Medford (sec maps). The addi tional transmission line on BLM would be constructed as part of a double circuit with the existing 11 5 kV li ne. Thi s double circuit line will carry both the existing 115-kV line and the new 230 kV line on new poles and take advantage of' the existing right-of­ way to greatest extent possible. Pacifi c Power applied fo r an amendment to a ri ght-of-way grant they currently hold to accom modate the addition of a 230 kilovolt (kV) transmi ssion line along an existing route that would cross lands managed by BLM. The power line runs between an existing substation near Grants Pass and a new proposed substation site on private lands in Sams Valley for a di stance of' approximately 18 mil es; 4.6 mi les crosses BLM-admini stered lands and the remai nder crosses private lands. The BLM is proposing to expand the right-of-way width along the 4.6 miles of existing power line ri ght-of-way from I 00 feet to 135 feet. /\n additional 4. 7 miles of line between the new substation and the ex isting Whetstone Substation would have conductors replaced; the right-of-way width would not be expanded along this section. The BLM's decision will on ly address the 4.6 miles that cross BLM land. The I3LM docs not have jurisdiction to authorize any actions on non-federal lands. The majority ofthe project (approximately 75%), including the new substation site, would be located on private land. For portions ofthe project that cross private land, additional right-of­ way easements would be negotiated with landowners. The new substation would be located on private land owned by Pacific Power. The 30-day comment period for this EA will begin when the legal notice is published in the Medford Mail Tribune newspaper on November 21, 2016. Any comments you may have regarding this project must be received by December 21, 2016 to be considered in final decisions for this proposal. Please send your comments to the Bureau of Land Management, Attention: Tony Kerwin, 3040 Biddle Road, Medford, OR 97504, or e-mail your comments to [email protected] (Attention: Tony Kerwin). You may also submit comments through the BLM's national register website by selecting "Comment on Document" in the Documents section ofthe webpage for this EA.

Any republication, retransmission, reproduction, or sale of all or part of this curriculum is prohibited. Introduction Welcome to the Grand Ronde Tribal History curriculum unit. We are thankful that you are taking the time to learn and teach this curriculum to your class. This unit has truly been a journey. It began as a pilot project in the fall of 2013 that was brought about by the need in Oregon schools for historically accurate and culturally relevant curriculum about Oregon Native Americans and as a response to countless requests from Oregon teachers for classroom- ready materials on Native Americans. The process of creating the curriculum was a Tribal wide effort. It involved the Tribe’s Education Department, Tribal Library, Land and Culture Department, Public Affairs, and other Tribal staff. The project would not have been possible without the support and direction of the Tribal Council. As the creation was taking place the Willamina School District agreed to serve as a partner in the project and allow their fourth grade teachers to pilot it during the 2013-2014 academic year. It was also piloted by one teacher from the Pleasant Hill School District. Once teachers began implementing the curriculum, feedback was received regarding the effectiveness of lesson delivery and revisions were made accordingly. The teachers allowed Tribal staff to visit during the lessons to observe how students responded to the curriculum design and worked after school to brainstorm new strategies for the lessons and provide insight from the classroom teacher perspective.

Both provided great assistance in reviewing drafts of the manuscript, as did Jeff LeLande of the United States Forest Service (Medford). Individuals from three southwest Oregon Native American tribes participated in the collection of ethnographic and historic data contained in the report and appendix. Robert Kentta of the Confederated Tribes of Siletz Indians reviewed ethnographic material from the John Harrington collection. Don Whereat of the Confederated Tribes of Coos, Lower Umpqua, and Siuslaw Indians provided extensive help with records from the National Archives, Bancroft Library, and the Melville Jacobs collection. Troy Anderson of the Coquille Tribe helped to review materials relating to his tribe found in the Melville Jacobs collection. The staff of the Bancroft Library at the University of California at Berkeley helped to track down several early journals and diaries relating to the historic exploration of southwest Oregon. Gary Lundell of the University of Washington helped to locate pertinent materials in the Melville Jacobs collection. The staff at the Coos Bay Public Library assisted in accessing sources in their Oregon collection and through interlibrary loan.

  • Redacted for Privacy
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF M. Susan Van Laere for the degreeof Master of Arts in Applied Anthropologypresented on March 6, 2000. Title: The Grizzly Bear andthe Deer: The History of Federal Indian Policy and Its Impacton the Coast Reservation Tribes of Oregon, 1856-1877. Abstract Approved Redacted for privacy David R. Brauner The Coast Reservation of Oregonwas established under Executive Order of President Franklin Pierce in November,1855, as a homeland for the southern Oregon tribes. It was an immense, isolatedwilderness, parts of which had burned earlier inthe century. There were some prairies where farmingwas possible, but because the reservation system itself and farming,particularly along the coast,were unknown entities, life for the Indianswas a misery for years. Those responsible for the establishmentof the reservation were subject to the vagaries of the weather, the wilderness,the Congress, and the Office of Indian Affairs. Agents were accountable, not only forthe lives of Oregon Indians, but also for allof the minute details involved in answeringto a governmental agency. Some of the agentswere experienced with the tribes ofwestern Oregon; others were not. All of them believedthat the only way to keep the Indiansfrom dying out was to teach them theEuropean American version of agriculturalism.Eventually, if possible, Oregon Indians would be assimilated into the dominant culture. Mostagents held out little hope for the adults of the tribes. This thesis lays out the background for thedevelopment of United States Indian policies. European Americans' etimocentricideas about what constituted civilization became inextricablywoven into those policies. Those policies were brought in their infant stage to Oregon.

  • A “Most Disastrous” Affair
    Southern Oregon University Laboratory of Anthropology Southern Oregon University Laboratory A “Most Disastrous” Affair The Battle of Hungry Hill, Historical Memory, and the Rogue River War MARK AXEL TVESKOV “Do you know the story of the Battle of Hungry Hill? A woman—Queen Mary — led the Native Americans from horseback, and her booming voice could be heard across the battlefield. They won that battle”1 — Coquille elder George Bundy Wasson Jr., 1994 IN EARLY NOVEMBER 1855, news reached the Willamette Valley of a defeat suffered by a force of Oregon territorial volunteers and two compa- nies of the U.S. Army’s First Regiment of U.S. Dragoons at the hands of the Takelma in the remote mountains of southern Oregon.2 A correspondent for the Oregon Statesman newspaper reported: The war in the South has become a real and earnest affair. The battle in the Grave Creek hills has proved most disastrous to our side. It is supposed that there were not more than 100 fighting Indians engaged in the action. On our side were over 300 volunteers and more than 100 regulars. The loss on the side of the Indians was very trifling, probably not more than 7 or 8 killed. The Indians had taken a position in the mountains, about 15 miles west of the road to Jacksonville — an almost inaccessible place. After two days of [the] hard- est kind of fighting the Indians were left in possession of the field. In about ten days it is proposed to renew the attack. The exterminators are rather down in the mouth.

  • Native Americans of the Rogue Valley with a Focus on the Ashland Area
    An introduction to the Native Americans of the Rogue Valley with a Focus on the Ashland Area North Mountain Park Nature Center A division of the Ashland Parks and Recreation Department November 2012 About this Booklet This booklet is intended as an educational piece for park visitors, classroom teachers and others who are interested in learning about the indigenous inhabitants of this region. Although based on numerous ethnographies, historical accounts, archaeological records, and the input of tribal people today, this booklet is not meant to be a scholarly document, rather, the purpose of this booklet is to form a general picture of what life was like for the Native Americans who lived in and around Ashland prior to, and following contact with, Euro-Americans, including their role as long-term stewards of this region. The events that occurred during the 19th century and the impact they have had on the land and people of this region are still being felt today. For tribal people, whose ancestors resided in the Rogue Valley for thousands of years, it is about maintaining a relationship with their homeland while moving forward in a new land. For others, it is about trying to learn from the past while looking toward a better, more sustainable and more honorable future for everyone. Nature Center staff are grateful to all of the people who have contributed to the writing of this booklet and to the efforts of artists Irene Brady and Nancy Wylie.
