Tribal Pollution Prevention

National Pollution Prevention Roundtable
Tribal Workgroup Conference Call

Tuesday August 18, 2009 at 2 pm EDT, 1 pm CDT, Noon MDT, 11am PDT

  1. Introductions - 24 Participants
  2. Guest Speaker
    Michael Troge, Oneida Tribe of Indians of Wisconsin

    Mike's presentation contains much of the information he covered in the call. The following is some additional information:

    • Leases are usually 5 years with the option to extend for another 5 years, unless other designations or plans have been made for that particular land.
    • The tribe is trying to get more involved in providing their beef products to Oneida School, the casino and other facilities. Their products are very successful, but it is uncertain how much of it is due to Oneida community members purchasing versus other individuals.
    • To date, there hasn't been a lot of coordination between the Oneida in Wisconsin and the Oneida in New York.
    • Mike included a sample agreement with his presentation materials.
