Clara motioned that the Maidu Summit Consortium offer its full support to Bill Jacobsen and Tyrone Gore (Sierra Salmon Alliance) to continue their efforts for the consideration of Traditional Cultural Properties (TCPs) in the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission re-licensing of the Yuba-Bear Hydroelectric Project (FERC 2266). The Summit authorizes the Sierra Salmon Alliance to speak on their behalf in this process. Ben seconded the motion. Four member organizations approved.
The Maidu Summit is a consortium of Mountain Maidu groups composed of two recognized rancherias (Greenville and Susanville), two petitioning tribes (Tsi’Akim and United Maidu Nation), three non-profit organizations (Tasmam Koyom Cultural Foundation, Maidu Cultural and Development Group, and Roundhouse Council), and two Indian organizations (Maiduk We’ye and Mountain Maidu Preservation Association).
