Snow removal
In years past B.I. A. roads depart
ment has accepted the responsibil
ity of snow removal from private
driveways and approaches. This
practice has been in direct viola
tion of Federal Regulations. We
provided this service for the benefit
of all people living on the reservation.
As of the winter of 1986-87 the
B.I. A. Roads department will be
limited to the B.I. A. road system
only. The B.I. A. road system includes
all the main traveled roads by the
school buses, working people, police,
Are and safety, etc.
The upcoming snow winter sea
son, and henceforth, your personal
private approaches or driveways
will be your responsibility to clear.
You, as a home and landowner,
will need to make arrangement to
get the snow removed from your
driveways approches.
People available to clear your
snow at this time are listed below.
These people will quote their prices
for services to be provided. I. Bru
noc's at 553-1 596; 2. Tommy Smith

Marcia and Orthelia attended a
