Report on 71th Annual NCAI
Convention and Marketplace
Councilman Tony Small
Atlanta, Georgia –October 2014
By Tony Small
Uncompahgre Band Business Committee Representative
Last week I attended the
National Congress of American Indians 71st Annual
Convention and Marketplace
in Atlanta Georgia. Also in
attendance were Councilman
Phillip Chimburas, former
Chairwoman Irene Cuch,
Michelle Sabori, Quanah
Powaukee, Sandra Black,
Austin McCook, Jodi Gardner and Sonja Willie.
We were able to get three
resolutions passed by the
NCAI General Assembly
on behalf of the Ute Indian
Tribe:
The first, Resolution 14038 was titled: Support of
Federal Appeal on State
Attempt to Significantly
Narrow the Federal Definition of Indian Country. The
resolution addresses the Ute
Tribe v. Utah jurisdiction
case and the threat to tribal
jurisdiction over roadways
on reservation, and calls upon
the United States to intervene
on the Tribe’s behalf pursuant to its trust responsibility
to the Tribe to protect both
federal and tribal jurisdiction.
It also requests that NCAI file
an amicus brief with the court
on behalf of all the NCAI
member Tribes, as this is an
issue affecting all Tribes in
the United States.
The second, Resolution
14-035, was titled: General
Support for Bureau of Indian Affairs Rights-of-Way
on Indian Land Proposed
Regulations. The resolution
was put forward to stop the
Department of Interior from
applying state law in its proposed revisions to the right
of way regulations and also
from having those regulations apply retroactively to
past agreements or contracts,
which would impact oil and
gas development on the reservation. During a consultation
session with the Department of Interior that was
held during the conference,
other tribal representatives
also raised concerns that the
proposed regulations could
be improved with clarifications on other issues such as
piggybacking, tribal consent,
and continuing jurisdiction of
tribes. We agreed to amend
the resolution to address
these areas as well as the
comments that NCAI was
submitting to the Department
of Interior on this matter,
which were consistent with
the Ute Indian Tribe’s comments.
The third, Resolution 14024, was titled: Support for
S. 2440, “the BLM Permit
Processing Improvement
Act,” and Needed Amendments to Address Indian
Energy Development. The
resolution supports Senate
Bill 2440, a bill introduced
in this Congress that passed
the Senate by unanimous
consent on September 16th
and is now being “held at
the desk” in the U.S. House
of Representatives. This bill
includes a number of the Ute
Indian Tribe’s legislative
proposals to improve energy development in Indian
Country and streamline the
oil and gas permitting process. However, the bill did
not include one of the most
important proposals, the creation of a new Indian Energy
Regulatory Office that could
coordinate the administrative
tasks of the various agencies
and departments in the federal government that work on
Indian energy matters. The
resolution calls for an amendment to the bill to include this
important provision that will
allow for more oil and gas
drilling activity which will
result in more revenue for
the Tribe.
Each of these resolutions
will serve to advance the
Ute Tribe’s efforts to address
these important issues, and
with the support of NCAI, the
Business Committee will be
much stronger in our ongoing work to protect our tribal
jurisdiction, ensure Rights
of Ways are properly maintained on the reservation and
improve energy development
to maximize our revenue
and income from oil and gas
resources.
When U.S. Cavalry troops
rode onto the Ute Indian
Reservation in northwestern Colorado on September
29, 1879, they triggered a
chain of events that cost
the Utes their homeland: a
deadly battle at Milk Creek,
the killing of all men at the
Indian agency headed by
Nathan Meeker, and the
taking of three women and
two children who were held
hostage for 23 days. The Utes
didn’t seek a fight with the
whites, most of whom they
viewed as friends. However,
powerful whites in Colorado
wanted the Utes expelled.
The Meeker affair was an
opportunity to achieve that.
In Troubled Trails, Robert
Silbernagel casts new light on
the story of the Meeker Affair. Using details from his-
torical interview transcripts
and newspaper articles, he
reveals the personalities of
the major characters—both
Indian and non-Indian. He
tells the story from many
perspectives, including that
of Indian Agent Nathan
Meeker; the U.S. military;
Nicaagat, a leader of the
White River Utes; and Josephine Meeker, Nathan
Meeker’s daughter, who was
held hostage by the Utes.
Silbernagel took great pains
to tell a complete story, even
following on horseback the
trail taken by the Utes. As a
result, his book paints a multifaceted picture of what took
place and, most importantly,
his portrayal brings the Ute
side of the story into focus.

ANNUAL VETERANS WALK NOVEMBER 11, 2014
Ute Indian Tribe Veterans were honored November 11, 2014 during the Annual Veterans Walk. Flag ceremony, prayers were
said as tribal members held proudly photographs of family members who served in war. Photos by CN/UB
From Chairman
Gordon Howell
Good morning
We are here today to honor
the great men and women
that served in all branches
of the military Army, Navy,
Air Force, Marines, National
Guard and P.O.W’s.
They gave the ultimate
sacrifice for our people and
this great nation of ours during World War 1, World War
II, and Korean War, Vietnam
to Desert Storm. I’m so proud
to be Native American, we
as “Nu-Chu” people fought
for this country we loved so
much with honor and respect!
After all that was done for our
Ancestors our brave men and
women fought unselfishly
for this country we call the
United States of America,
for life, liberty and justice
for all Americans no matter
what race, religion you may
belong too.
So what does a Veteran
mean to me? It means Honor,
Courage, Respect and Perseverance, words Veterans live
by. Men and women who
served our country deserve
our up most respect.
But what exactly is a Vet-
eran? In my opinion someone
who has served our country
during times of war, someone who was or is currently
in the military. They live a
discipline life. They go off
to war to ensure our freedom
and protect our way of life.
They are heroes to us but
to them they’re just normal
people, they are modest, they
don’t look for praise, they
claim to just be doing their
job. They say things like the
real heroes are those who
didn’t return from war. That is
what a Veteran means to me.
We all dream of a day when
our children will come to us
as parents and ask what was
war? We can say to them our
brave men and women fought
for our Freedom and our way
of life, don’t forget it and take
that word lightly, Freedom!
Our military men and women
“wanted us to love them and
as much as they loved this
country” and willing to give
the ultimate sacrifice for it.
For that I say to you our
military men and women
past to present you have my
upmost respect for what you
did for us as Native Americans and for what you did for
this Great Country of ours.
So that I say to you thank
you!!!

Native American Day
By Tiger Taveapont
In 1968, California established a state holiday called
American Indian Day. Governor Ronald Reagan signed
the paper to make it happen.
The name was later changed
to Native American Day.
It is celebrated every
year on the fourth Friday in
September. At first it was
only a California Holiday.
However, in 1989, it became
a holiday in South Dakota.
Governor George S. Mickelson proposed that they
make the holiday part of their
state’s holidays. Then in Tennessee, it became a holiday
Smoke and
Mimi’s Visit
Mimi and Smoke, the
couple that came last year
and talked about how students shouldn’t bully each
other, and how to live better
lives, came back this year on
October 23rd. Mostly
just Smoke talked this time,
and once again he shared the
sad story of their daughter’s
death, a result of bullying,
and left their positive message that it is better to learn
how to be respectful to each
other.
They were accompanied
by Vaughn Eagle Feather
who talked about the positive things Native Americans
in 1994.
Now, it is celebrated nationwide. The purpose of the
holiday is to recognize and
celebrate the rich cultures and
traditions of Native Americans, and our contributions
to the world.
Did you know that the
game Lacrosse was invented
by Native Americans? Did
you also know that Native
Americans invented the
baby bottle, bunk beds, and
insecticides? These are all
useful inventions that the
world uses every day, and few
people know that it was Native Americans who invented
them!

ment the Hope4Utah program at
Eagle View Elementary School
and Vernal Middle School. We,
along with all secondary schools
in Uintah, are beginning this
amazing program this year.
Hope4Utah has been shown
to reduce the number of youth
suicides by providing education, training, and expertise in
suicide prevention, intervention, and postvention. Since
implementing this program the
Provo school district has not lost
a single student to suicide in the
past eight years!!
One of the program focuses
is on educating all students
about the warning signs of
suicide and training a group of
students in ways to help their
a HOPE SQUAD. Students
are nominated by their peers as
a person that is a friend to all,
listens well, trusted classmate.
Our orientation and beginning training was held Wednesday, November 19th at Vernal

two schools share in instruction,
training and activities. We are so
excited to begin this journey.

Ms. Evans has another
new book out! This one is a
story about a sparrow named
Felicity who can talk and
read. In the story, she finds

from a hawk, whose name is
Grak, but can she solve them
in time before Grak eats her?
The name of the book is
Felicity~ A Sparrow’s Tale.
All members of the Eagle
View Student Leadership Circle
participated in the planning, direction and execution of events
for the students and school
community to raise awareness
of healthy lifestyles. Aligned
with the No Excuses philosophy
of all students graduating from
college, activities were focused
on a college theme. Daily activities included Crazy Hair Day,
Pajama Day and Hat Day with
Friday being an opportunity to
come dressed in the apparel of
your future career or as a college
mascot. Our students’ goals
include being a lawyer, surgical nurse, professional dancer,
athlete, actor, teacher and more.
Kalvin Stevensen chaired
the committee for the classroom
door decorating contest. Teachers cleverly incorporated their
college into a strong statement
against drugs and choosing a
healthy lifestyle instead. Slogans included; “These Bullfighters don’t say “Ole” They say
“No Way!” (University of Texas
Longhorns), “Vikings bring the
Hammer down on Drugs” (BYU
Idaho), “We earn our feathers by
being Drug Free” (U of U).
The traditional Pumpkin
Patch was lead by Brady Rasmussen. The dark auditorium
was the venue for the student’s
jack-o-lanterns. The carved
pumpkins filled the risers on
stage with glowing lights, spider
webs, music and the favorite
Halloween candy treat.
Our resident mad science
teacher, Mr. Browning opened
his laboratory with stations for
the students to view science
principles at work! From polyvinyl worms, to zinc sulfide,
quinine, fluorescein, uvu lights
and lots of dry ice, Eagle View
celebrated some mad science
with the help of some eighth
graders.
The annual Bookfair combined with a College Carnival
on Thursday evening drew in
a good crowd for books, fun,
games and food.

PUBLIC NOTICE
OF A DRAFT CORRECTION PERMIT WHICH REGULATES THE EMISSIONS OF AIR POLLUTANTS
Take notice that the United
States Environmental Protection Agency, Region 8 (U.S.
EPA) provides notice of, and
requests public comment
on, U.S. EPA’s proposed actions to issue a Prevention
of Significant Deterioration
(PSD) correction permit No.
PSD-UO-000004-2014.00
that regulates air pollution
emissions from the following source located within
the Uintah and Ouray Indian
Reservation, Uintah County,
Utah:
Deseret Power Electric Cooperative
Bonanza Power Plant
12500 East 25500 South
Vernal, UT 84078
The U.S. EPA is authorized to issue Clean Air Act
(CAA) PSD permits in Indian
country where EPA has not
approved a tribe to implement the PSD permit program. The Bonanza Power
Plant is located in Indian
country within the Uintah and
Ouray Indian Reservation.
Under the requirements of
40 CFR 52.21, sources are
required to obtain a Federal
PSD permit to construct a
new major stationary source
as well as a major modification of an existing major
stationary source. The Deseret Bonanza Power Plant
is a major stationary source.
The purpose of the proposed
permit action is to correct
errors in the Federal PSD
permit issued on February 2,
2001. U.S. EPA proposes to
determine that a project constructed by Deseret Power
in June of 2000, known as
the ruggedized rotor project,
was a major modification
for nitrogen oxide (NOx)
emissions, and therefore, is
subject to PSD permitting for
NOx. The Statement of Basis
(SOB) includes a proposed
Best Available Control Technology (BACT) determination for NOx. After application of NOx BACT under the
proposed correction permit
there will be a net reduction in NOx emissions and
therefore air emissions from
this proposal will not cause
or contribute to violations
of the National Ambient Air
Quality Standards (NAAQS)
or increment violation. U.S.
EPA is proposing to make this
correction as well as the other
changes as explained in the
SOB; and we are only seeking comments on these corrections and changes. These
proceedings are subject to the
administrative requirements
of 40 CFR 52.21 and 40 CFR
124.
Beginning on December 5,
2014, members of the public
may review the administrative record for this proposal,
including a copy of the draft
correction permit prepared

the draft correction permit,
and all supporting materials, at the U.S. EPA Region

will be available for review in

WINTER
SAFETY FACT
VS. MYTHS
UTE FAMILY
Myth: A flask of Schnapps
in the ski jacket helps keep
you warm. Fact: Alcohol
actually causes the body to
loose heat
Myth: Rubbing frost bitten
areas of the body with snow
is a good emergency measure Fact: This actually can cause
more damage
Myth: Wind chill just makes
it feel colder but does not
worsen the affect on body
heat loss Fact: The “feels
like” temperature has the
same affect on the body in
terms of heat loss, frostbite,
hypothermia etc as if that
were the actual temp
Myth: Treat frostbite with
hot water. Fact: Because
of numbness hot water can
be dangeous. Instead warm
the area with water that is
luke warm or with body heat
such as the heat of the armpit
Fact: Lake ice that has been
frozen a long time is safer Fact: False Ice frozen for two
weeks under same conditions
and thickness is at the optimal
safety level Furthermore
river ice can be far more
dangerous
Myth: Gas mileage for cars
is consistent anytime of year. Fact: Gas mileage decreases
with cold weather
Myth: A fireplace is a good
economical way to heat
the house Fact: An open
fireplace is an energy loser
with most heat going out the
chimney. Keep the damper
tightly closed when not in use
as hot air rises anyway
Myth: Space heaters save
money Fact: While they
serve the purpose of supplimental heat in more confined
areas they are not efficient at
all and also can be a safety
hazard

Dancers practice at Rice Stadium for November 21, 22, 2014 basketball and football half time games.
UNIVERSITY OF UTAH UTE PRESENTATION
The Northern Ute Tribe
will be well represented at
the University of Utah during a basketball & football
game November 21-22,
2014. From a Memorandum
of Understanding that was
signed earlier this year between U of U and the Ute
tribe, an opportunity of tribal
representation was born. In
the past the University had
only used “Runnin Utes” as
their name/mascot.
Before 1972, the university used the "Redskins"
interchangeably with "Utes.”
Swoop, a red-tailed hawk, is
the mascot of the Utah Utes
sports teams. The university
introduced Swoop in 1996.
Originally the school's mascot was an American Indian,
but was dropped when the
school stopped using the
redskins nickname. Later
Hoyo, a cartoon Indian Boy,
became an unofficial mascot,
but was also dropped. During
the 1980s the Crimson Warrior, a Caucasian horseman
dressed in Indian “costume,”
would ride onto the field
before home football games
and plant a lance into a bale
of hay. The warrior was considered more a symbol of the
school than a mascot.
In recent years with controversy arising from “mascot” issues nationwide, the
University and the Ute tribe
have decided to keep the
“UTE” name associated
with the school. Instead of
taking away the name they
have decided to EDUCATE
the students and fans of the
University of Utah on what
a Ute is and what it means to
be Ute. The “UTE PROUD”
campaign was launched dur-
TEAM HAWKS
Team "Hawks" played in
Vernal at Uintah Recreation
Center, the league in 3rd and
4th grades. League games
started on November 1, 2014
and they will end on December 18, 2014. Practices are
Monday through Thursday
from 4pm to 5 pm. Practice
consists of dribbling, passing
and man to man defense and
running together as a team. They are all very talented
players I enjoy working with
them, and encouraging them
to stay in school and work
hard at each practice.
Team consists of 3-1st
graders, 4-2nd graders, 2-3rd
graders for a total of 9 players.

ing the summer and has been
effective in its purpose to
educate the public; there are
Ute Native Americans; they
do reside in Utah; they are
proud people; Utah state lines
were drawn on their original
territory/homelands.
The Ute Tribe was invited
to participate and perform at
the UofU vs. UC-Riverside
basketball game (Nov 21.)
and at the UofU vs. University of Arizona football
game (Nov 22.) which is
also ‘senior day’ for the
football team. A committee
was formed and notifications
& publications went out via
email, the tribal newspaper,
and radio program calling
tribal members to come out,
support, and share their input
for the planning phases leading up to performing at the
University.
A call for dancers & singers was then put out, and
practices started taking
place at the tribal gymnasium weekly. Throughout
this process it has always
been emphasized by tribal
leaders/organizers/parents/
guardians that the pride
and joy of the Ute Tribe
is our children. They are
the main focus and will
be highlighted during the
weekends events. All that
is done has been with the
children in mind. So with
that a practice on the UofU
field took place Saturday,
November 15th. There was
so much positive feedback
from the University, parents,
and those in attendance. It is
exciting to have the Ute Tribe
represented at UofU functions…..FINALLY!!! The
tribe will host a tailgate party
before the football game on
Saturday. Everyone is proud
of all the kids for their commitment and dedication of
making it to the practices
and meetings. Thank you
parents, grandparents, guard-
ians, aunts, uncles, and other
family members for taking
the time to get the little ones
to practice and to be a part of
the performance.
