Slater Signs Order Establishing New Policy With Native Americans.

Publication: Public Roads
Date: Wednesday, March 1 2000

Transportation Secretary Slater signed an order calling for agencies of DOT to build more effective working relationships with Native American tribal governments and to provide more opportunities for Native Americans to participate in transportation programs.

The new policy implements

federal mandates, including a memorandum in which President Clinton directed all federal agencies to respect tribal sovereignty when implementing activities that affect Indian tribal rights or trust resources.

The order enumerates 17 instructions for all the department's components. They include consulting with Indian tribes before taking any action that may significantly affect them; assessing the environmental impact of department activities on tribal trust resources; and responding to the transportation concerns of Native Americans and Alaska Natives related to environmental matters.
