Section ENV.02.08 — Rights And Responsibilities Of Beneficial Usage

(a) All enrolled members of the Tribe shall have the right to share in the beneficial use of the forest resources as provided in this ordinance.

(b) All individuals with privileges under this ordinance also have a responsibility to be good stewards of the natural resources on the Reservation. While tribal members do have a right to share in the bounty from the land, they must do so in a responsible manner that ensures the long-term continuation of healthy and sustainable natural resource populations for the benefit of future generations. This responsibility extends to maintaining a healthy environment for forest resources as all life is inter-connected.
