Northwest Treaty Tribes: Protecting Natural Resources for Everyone
About us
Northwest Treaty Tribes is a news service of the Northwest Indian Fisheries Commission, which was formed after the 1974 Boldt decision in U.S. v. Washington. The 20 treaty Indian tribes in western Washington are leaders in efforts to protect and restore natural resources in the region. At the heart of those efforts are rights reserved by the tribes in treaties with the U.S. government. Tribes reserved rights to harvest fish, shellfish, wildlife and other natural resources in exchange for most of the land that makes up the region today. Because all natural resources are connected, and because of their role as co-managers with the state, treaty tribes are active in every aspect of natural resources management in western Washington. As a result, tribal treaty rights and natural resources management efforts are protecting and enhancing natural resources for everyone.
