    Reading Time:less than a minute

    The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) staff will meet with members of the Burns Paiute Tribe to discuss the proposed Hells Canyon Hydroelectric Project. This meeting, occurring on January 28, 2020, will be a teleconference. While the public, certain agencies, and Idaho Power Company can attend the meeting, only tribal representatives and Commission staff are allowed to participate. If sensitive information regarding Native American cultural sites is shared, the public will be excused during those portions. Interested attendees should contact Michael Davis by January 25, 2020, to receive the necessary teleconference details.

    Simple Explanation

    The people who help with the country's energy will talk on a phone call with a special group of Native Americans about a project involving a big river dam. Some people can listen in, but only a few can talk, and if they talk about secret places, the others won't be allowed to listen to that part.

    Reading Time:about 3 minutes

    The Deschutes National Forest has completed an inventory in accordance with the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA) and identified human remains and funerary objects linked to Native American Tribes. These remains and objects, found in different locations within the forest, show a cultural connection to the Burns Paiute Tribe, the Klamath Tribes, and the Confederated Tribes of Warm Springs. The repatriation of these items can occur from April 18, 2025, onwards, and requests can be made by tribes or lineal descendants who demonstrate cultural affiliation. The National Park Service published this notice but is not responsible for the determinations made.

    Simple Explanation

    The Deschutes National Forest has found some old things and bones that belonged to Native American Tribes and are ready to give them back to the tribes starting April 18, 2025. But there are some questions about how they'll decide who gets the things if more than one group asks and what happens if no one asks for them.
