Spilyqy Tymoo, Wqrm Springs, Oregon My 13, 2004 Page 3 Potential for jobs found in fisheries Back in April of last year, Warm Springs Community Employment Liaison Marcia Soliz began efforts to put more tribal members to work at the Warm Springs National Fish Hatchery. The effort proved to be a success, and may lead to more fish mark ing contracts for the tribes. Soliz' work on the fish-marking project involved many con tacts, and a lot of follow-up along the way, to get to the point of making a bid on the fish clipping and marking project, and securing a bid. For the past 13 years a group from Idaho has been doing the fish clipping and marking at the Warm Springs National Fish Hatchery. After visiting the hatchery, Soliz talked with hatchery employ ees Randy Boise, Mavis Shaw and Mike Piayah. She wrote to the local fish ery committee chairman, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife regional office, the Chief Operations Officer and the Columbia River Inter-Tribal Fish Com mission. Through this effort, and after more phone calls and follow-up, Soliz learned that her department could bid ! i i 'v l (K m Bill RhoadctSpllyiy Member of the work team, Pam Cardenas marks a fish. on the fish clipping and mark ing project. The bid was competitive, and successful: her effort earned a spot for 12 Warm Springs tribal members to work as a crew. There was still a challenge, as the Idaho crew was still given a bid, said Soliz. This impacted the original contract with Commu nity Employment to clip and mark 750,000 fish. In order to process the fed eral contract, there was a re quirement of getting a special federal number, and the tribes hadn't done this before, said Soliz. It was a huge challenge getting this done, she said. Now that this is complete, though, it won't be a huge challenge for any other part of the tribes to go through the same process again. Of the fish-marking project, Soliz said, "We got our foot in the door to demonstrate that our people can work highly effec tively and be on the job," The following tribal members were hired through this project: See FISHERIES on page 16 Art camp invites local youth A summer arts program de signed for under-served children is extending an invitation to the children at Warm Springs to apply to Camp Caldera.
