Why are the Tribes concerned with projects outside the reservation
boundaries?
• Section 101 (d) (6) (b)
• Ancestral or Traditional territories
![Page 7: Section 106 Issues, Interpretations and Processes · Section 106 Issues, Interpretations and Processes Standing Rock Sioux Tribe Tribal Historic Preservation Office Terry Clouthier](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081405/5f0a2e007e708231d42a6549/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Section 101 (d) (6) (b) Section 101 (d) (6) (b) of the act requires the
agency official to consult with any Indian tribe or Native Hawaiian organization that attaches religious and cultural significance to historic properties that may be affected
by an undertaking. This requirement applies regardless of the location of the historic
property. Such Indian tribe or Native Hawaiian organization shall be a consulting
party.
![Page 8: Section 106 Issues, Interpretations and Processes · Section 106 Issues, Interpretations and Processes Standing Rock Sioux Tribe Tribal Historic Preservation Office Terry Clouthier](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081405/5f0a2e007e708231d42a6549/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Ancestral or Traditional Territory Main focus outside of the reservation for
section 106 involves the ancestral or traditional territory which includes the
states of Minnesota, North Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska, Wyoming, Montana and
internationally into Canada although the territory is traditionally accepted by Oceti Sakowin (7 council fires) Tribes as being
“…anywhere the Buffalo roamed”
![Page 9: Section 106 Issues, Interpretations and Processes · Section 106 Issues, Interpretations and Processes Standing Rock Sioux Tribe Tribal Historic Preservation Office Terry Clouthier](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081405/5f0a2e007e708231d42a6549/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Section 106: Meeting the “good faith” effort requirement • Two sections within 36CFR800
regulations which require federal agencies to meet a vaguely defined and poorly understood “good faith effort” in
relation to Indian Tribes and Native Hawaiian organizations and other
consulting parties.
![Page 10: Section 106 Issues, Interpretations and Processes · Section 106 Issues, Interpretations and Processes Standing Rock Sioux Tribe Tribal Historic Preservation Office Terry Clouthier](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081405/5f0a2e007e708231d42a6549/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
36CFR800.2 (c) (2) (ii) (A)
“It is the responsibility of the agency official to make a reasonable and good faith effort to identify Indian Tribes and Native Hawaiian Organizations that shall
be consulted in the section 106 process.”
![Page 11: Section 106 Issues, Interpretations and Processes · Section 106 Issues, Interpretations and Processes Standing Rock Sioux Tribe Tribal Historic Preservation Office Terry Clouthier](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081405/5f0a2e007e708231d42a6549/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
The agency official shall ensure that consultation in the section 106 process provides the Indian tribe or Native Hawaiian organization
a reasonable opportunity to identify its concerns about historic properties, advise on the identification and evaluation of historic
properties, including those of traditional religious and cultural importance, articulate its
views on the undertaking’s effects on such properties and participate in the resolution of
adverse effects.
![Page 12: Section 106 Issues, Interpretations and Processes · Section 106 Issues, Interpretations and Processes Standing Rock Sioux Tribe Tribal Historic Preservation Office Terry Clouthier](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081405/5f0a2e007e708231d42a6549/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
36CFR800.4 (b) (1) Level of effort. The agency official shall
make a reasonable and good faith effort to carry out appropriate identification efforts, which may include background
research, consultation, oral history interviews, sample field investigation,
and field survey.
![Page 13: Section 106 Issues, Interpretations and Processes · Section 106 Issues, Interpretations and Processes Standing Rock Sioux Tribe Tribal Historic Preservation Office Terry Clouthier](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081405/5f0a2e007e708231d42a6549/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
36CFR800.4 (b) Identify historic properties. Based on the
information gathered under paragraph (a) of this section, and in consultation with the
SHPO/THPO and any Indian Tribe or Native Hawaiian organization that might attach
religious and cultural significance to properties within the area of potential effects, the agency official shall take the steps necessary to identify historic properties within the area of potential
effects.
![Page 14: Section 106 Issues, Interpretations and Processes · Section 106 Issues, Interpretations and Processes Standing Rock Sioux Tribe Tribal Historic Preservation Office Terry Clouthier](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081405/5f0a2e007e708231d42a6549/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
36CFR800.4 (a) (3) Seek information, as appropriate, from consulting parties and other individuals
and organizations likely to have knowledge of, or concerns with, historic
properties in the area, and identify issues relating to the undertaking’s
potential effects on historic properties, and
![Page 15: Section 106 Issues, Interpretations and Processes · Section 106 Issues, Interpretations and Processes Standing Rock Sioux Tribe Tribal Historic Preservation Office Terry Clouthier](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081405/5f0a2e007e708231d42a6549/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
36CFR800.4 (a) (4) Gather information from any Indian tribe or
Native Hawaiian organization identified pursuant to 800.3 (f) to assist in identifying properties, including those of religious and
cultural significance to them and may be eligible for the National Register, recognizing
that an Indian tribe or Native Hawaiian organization may be reluctant to divulge
specific information regarding the location, nature, and activities associated with such
sites.

Identification Issues and the Section 106 Process
“An archaeological or ethnographic study is
completed. Isn’t that enough?”
![Page 17: Section 106 Issues, Interpretations and Processes · Section 106 Issues, Interpretations and Processes Standing Rock Sioux Tribe Tribal Historic Preservation Office Terry Clouthier](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081405/5f0a2e007e708231d42a6549/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Archaeological identification efforts are not the same as tribal identification efforts
While there are many similarities between archaeological and tribal identification efforts
(i.e. survey methodology is not that different on the Great Plains). The understanding and
knowledge of what the sites represent is vastly different. This affects the identification of
features on sites, the recommendations for boundaries and buffers at sites and for the actual physical effects to historic properties
including the destruction of sites if not properly identified by Traditional Cultural Specialists.

How is the FCC fulfilling this “good faith” responsibility?
• Nationwide Program Agreement (PA) which implemented the
Tower Construction Notification System (TCNS)
