Abstract
  • Residents of the Burns Paiute Indian Reservation are currently confronted by several problems retarding the development and management of their resources. Many of these problems as well as recent resource deficiencies are linked to the type of federal jurisdiction under which this land area was held prior to the transfer of trusteeship responsibilities to the Burns Paiute Tribe. This study identifies (1) current existing problems, (2) needed resource development activities, and (3) feasible procedures towards implementing practical resource management by members of the Burns Paiute community. Included under (1) are lack of financial revenues, erratic and frequently adverse resource utilization, inadequate and substandard housing, federal paternalism with the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA), and limited decision making opportunities; under (2) new housing, improving agricultural productivity, and diversifying the resource base via construction of a light industrial facility; and under (3), establishing a non-profit community development corporation, activating a well managed public relations campaign, and providing a mechanism for planning input by tribal members.
