Inter-tribal commission hires Wapato
S. Timothy Wapato has been ap
pointed executive director o f the
Columbia River Inter-Tribal Fish
Commission (CRITFC). C R ITFC is
the fisheries/water technical service
of four Columbia River treaty tribes
Nez Perce of Idaho, Um atilla and
Warm Springs of Oregon, and Ya
kima of Washington.
Wapato is an enrolled member of
the Confederated Colville Tribes of
Washington.
Along with his responsibilities as
director, W apato will continue to
assist in implementing a Columbia
River inter-tribal law enforcement
program, a project he initiated in
1980. In his former C R IT F C posi
tion he was the commission's liaison
with state and federal fisheries law-
enforcement agencies. He also de
signed and drafted the Columbia
River In ter-trib al Enforcement
Code, and his work in upgrading
water technical services led to
creation o f the Colum bia River
Drainage Basin Water Committee.
Wapato takes over at a time when
unique opportunities exist to reverse
the downward spiral of Columbia
River salmon runs. The tribes and
state and federal fishery agencies
won a significant victory when fish
and w ild life provisions were in
cluded in the regional power act,

and already there is substantial
agreement on how to implement
those provisions. The tribes and
C R ITFC have also been instrument
al in placing Columbia River fish at
the center of United States/Canada
salmon treaty negotiations. As exec
utive director, M r. Wapato’s great
est challenge and most constant ob
jective is to keep the tribes at the
forefront of Columbia River Fisher
ies management and restoration.
