It is with great pleasure that we present Tribal Successes: Protecting the Environment and Natural Resources. Numerous Tribes use innovative practices to protect natural resources and the environment. This report showcases only a small sample of Tribal communities that demonstrate success in achieving natural resource and environmental goals. The overall intent of this report is to highlight examples of successful Tribal practices that will inspire and be useful to others in successfully implementing their own natural resource and environmental programs. We extend our sincere thanks to all who provided feedback and suggestions. Your assistance greatly contributed to the design and completion of this report. We especially thank members of the Tribes highlighted in this report for their participation and interest. Their commitment to sharing successful Tribal programs and practices made this report possible.

This unique report is the culmination of a collaborative effort by the Offices of Inspector General for the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the U.S. Department of the Interior. It was prepared to promote Tribal programmatic capability and capacity. This report provides a forum to share the diversity of Tribal practices and to create models for success. We encourage government agencies and other stakeholders to use the report to enhance relationships and partnerships with Tribes.
