Pilles - Sensitivity training to better understand the issues.
Canouts - Federal employees now being held more accountable for their actions.
Brunson - This is a problem as local level people do not want to make those
decisions.
Reid - Tried to deal with Tribal Chairman. If needed brought up to Council.
This system not use academically. Different organizational forums/structures
meeting on these issues/consultation.
Rice - That’s what Pilles said.
Reid - Pilles around LONG time - has developed personal relationships. Work on
a one to one basis.
Laidlaw - Two things: adapt Universal needs to a culture. (Reid- then deal
with tribe to archeologist. Previously tribe came to the University, now its
the other way. Easier to work with tribes than federal government.) Same holds
true for tribes. Don’t translate what tribe telling us into useful terms; it
just gets filed. Personal relationships is crucial.
Jenkins - Accept working relationship with tribe would be on tribal
parameters. Take steps to work with tribe. There is trust involved.
Rice - Valuable to meet like this.
Reid - Need to Meet.
Pilles - Need managers and their perspectives, and tribal representatives.
Kintigh - Would managers come?
Pilles - Some yes, some no. Depends upon sensitivity training!
Brunson -
Laidlaw - Talk about what want to do. Not what others want. Establish personal
relationship.
Kintigh - Talk to tribal leaders not us.
Dongoske - Up to tribes to pick the right case. Pick carefully. Scare Tactics.
Rice - Group work towards goal. One on one contact.
Kintigh - Convince Babbitt to get word out. From high level to work out MOU.
