Northwest Treaty Tribes: Protecting Natural Resources for Everyone
关于我们
Northwest Treaty Tribes is a news service of the Northwest Indian Fisheries Commission, which was formed after the 1974 Boldt decision in U.S. v. Washington. The 20 treaty Indian tribes in western Washington are leaders in efforts to protect and restore natural resources in the region. At the heart of those efforts are rights reserved by the tribes in treaties with the U.S. government. Tribes reserved rights to harvest fish, shellfish, wildlife and other natural resources in exchange for most of the land that makes up the region today. Because all natural resources are connected, and because of their role as co-managers with the state, treaty tribes are active in every aspect of natural resources management in western Washington. As a result, tribal treaty rights and natural resources management efforts are protecting and enhancing natural resources for everyone.

The Port Gamble S'Klallam Tribe held a smoked salmon and canning class recently. Tribal elder Gene Jones taught students how to fillet the salmon, then students hung and smoked them in the tribe's community smokehouse for 12 hours. The smoked salmon strips were cut into chunks and stuffed into jars for canning, which will be given as gifts during tribal events.

"The salmon has sustained us since the beginning of time and it serves a great purpose for not just humans, but for the rivers, the trees, the eagles, the bears, the wolves," said Jay Julius, former Lummi Nation chairman. "Everything points back to salmon." Julius will speak at screenings of the FISH WAR documentary in the San Juan islands this week.

The Northwest Indian Fisheries Commission (NWIFC) is seeking a skilled Fisheries Biologist II to lead and conduct critical fish tagging operations, collaborating closely with tribal and state hatcheries and overseeing project staff. This role generates foundational coded wire tag (CWT) data essential for coastwide salmon management. The Fisheries Biologist II contributes key data used in conservation decisions related to contribution rates, allocation, and broodstock identification, supporting NWIFC’s mission to promote sustainable natural resource management in partnership with tribal and state hatcheries. https://lnkd.in/gGUUkGRh

Funding from NOAA will help treaty tribes keep hatcheries running to support Pacific Northwest salmon populations. "This is a monumental thing to get this funding, and it’s monumental what we’re going to be doing with the funding," said Lisa Wilson of the Lummi Indian Business Council.
Salmon disappeared from their once-teeming rivers. Now, Northwest tribes fight to save aging hatcheries with $240M in federal aid.
