EPA awards Eastern Shawnee Tribe of Oklahoma - Monday, September 21, 2009

Dallas, Texas – September 21, 2009)  The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has awarded $133,775 to the Eastern Shawnee Tribe of Oklahoma.  The Tribe will use the funds to provide continued support for their water pollution control program.  Surface water sampling on Tribal lands will continue for the purpose of compiling data which may show changes over time to determine if a more thorough watershed management program is needed to develop water quality standards.  Data obtained after water sampling will determine whether water quality needs of the Tribe are being met, note any changes in the quality or condition of the Tribe’s water, and understand and define the function and health of water stream ecosystems.

Tribal Showcase

 

 
 
 
Yvette Wiley honored us by composing and delivering a poem titled “Evolution” during the opening session of the annual Inter-Tribal Environmental Council Conference held on June 16, 2009 in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Since then, we have received numerous requests for a copy of her poem and Yvette has graciously provided it to us so that we can share with all. The following is a short bio for Yvette and a link provided for the poem.
 
 “Yvette began writing poetry about two years ago, and has had two poems published in literary journals.  Writing has become a creative outlet, and a voice for her perceptions of the world.   Her subjects vary widely, but she often presents a peek at the world through the eyes of a Native American woman. She works with a small group of online writers who help one another hone their skills, and build their publication resumes.”
