EPA Region 7 Tribal Consultation Guidance

EPA’s policy is to consult on a government-to-government basis with federally recognized tribal governments when EPA actions and decisions may affect tribal interests. Federally recognized tribal governments (tribes) include all elected officials, appointed directors or officers, and all tribal staff who represent the government of a tribally-authorized Indian organization. The EPA Policy on Consultation and Coordination with Indian Tribes (Consultation Policy) establishes national guidelines and institutional controls for consultation across EPA. This EPA Region 7 Tribal Consultation and Coordination Guidance (Guidance) is consistent with the Consultation Policy, but includes more specific guidelines for the consultation process to meet the needs and practices of tribes in EPA Region 7 (Region 7).
