Sustainability
  • Sustain what and how
  • Most definitions are economic based
  • EPA is presently looking at recommendations of
    the NACEPT
  • Sustainability of infrastructures through a
    watershed approach

28
Sustainability A Tribal Perspective
  • Protect and preserve resource for future
    generations
  • Resources based

29
Watershed PlanningProblems and Concerns
  • Scale dependent
  • Issue dependent
  • Often complicated by political boundaries
  • Jurisdictional issues
  • Tribal interests often transcend multiple
    jurisdictional areas (Aboriginal interests and
    rights may go beyond the Reservation boundaries)

30
Solutions
  • Greater recognition of jurisdictional boundaries
    and transboundary issues
  • Inclusion of Tribes in planning
  • Local
  • Regional
  • Interstate
  • International
