Attorney: Don Wharton
Case Update
NARF continues to do legal work for the Hualapai Indian Tribe of Arizona. The Tribe is located on the south rim of the Grand Canyon in Arizona, and claims a boundary that runs to the center of the Colorado River. The Tribe asked that NARF provide an interpretation of key provisions of their Constitution concerning the management and development of the Tribe's natural resources. In addition, the Tribe owns the Cholla Canyon Ranch near Wikiup, Arizona. The Ranch was gifted to the Tribe by its owners and is presently being operated as a palm tree plantation. NARF reviewed the proposed agricultural lease on the Ranch lands and is presently conducting negotiations with the attorney for the tree grower to reach an acceptable lease agreement. Tribe has also requested that we review and provide legal analysis of other issues related to an easement across an existing right-of- way for telephone lines, and other issues assigned by the Tribal Business Council.
