Page 10 Spilyay Tymoo, Warm Springs, Oregon January 17, 2018 Natural Resources update with members A site known as Little Swe- den on the Santiam Pass is a traditional gathering place for the Confederated Tribes. There is a spot within this property that looks like a small version of Sherars Falls, said Bobby Brunoe, general manager of the Branch of Natural Resources. Years ago, families from Warm Springs would travel there, getting to know the landowner. When the elder members of the family passed away, the surviving members decided the prop- erty should go to the tribes. This was what the intent of the original owners, Mr. Brunoe said; and the property is now among the tribes’ off reservation land holdlings. He spoke during a Branch of Natural Resources infor- mation session with tribal members on Monday Coffee with a Cop The Warm Springs Police Department in- vites Community mem- bers to attend ‘Coffee With a Cop’ on Friday, January 26 from 8 un- til 10 a.m. at the Greeley Heights community building.

Each of the branch de- partment heads shared their latest information. Water quality in the Deschutes River—specifically the pres- ence of algae, especially in the summer—was a concern among many. This effects the tribes’ drinking water, and fish habi- tat. The treatment plant is past its lifespan, and the tribes with IHS are studying how to address the problem— whether to find a new drink- ing water source, or replace the treatment plant, for in- stance, said Chief Operations Officer Alyssa Macy. The water storage tanks themselves should be tested, said Lyle Rhoan. This appar- ently has not been done lately.
