As the impacts of COVID have evolved\, we have continued to assess our protocols to ensure that they remain reflective of the current status of the pandemic. Today\, we are announcing the following updates to the USET sponsored meeting COVID protocols: \nUSET/USET SPF Sponsored Meetings \n\nUp to date* vaccinated attendees will not be required to mask and can fully engage without restrictions. Vaccinated attendees will provide proof of up-to-date status via self-attestation.

Additionally\, for USET/USET SPF meetings hosted by member Tribal Nations\, we will continue to comply with the COVID protocols that each set for their respective nation. While these protocols have changed to better reflect the current state of the pandemic\, updated booster shots\, and availability of treatments options\, the USET TEC strongly recommends ongoing caution due to the health disparities that exist across Indian Country. \n*Please note that up-to-date means that the primary series has been received and any current boosters (if eligible and/or available) have been administered. \n

Throughout the course of the COVID pandemic\, we have relied on their expertise to guide us to ensure for the overall safety\, health\, and wellness for our members\, staff\, and event attendees. As the impacts of COVID have evolved\, we have continued to assess our protocols to ensure that they remain reflective of the current status of the pandemic. Today\, we are announcing the following updates to the USET sponsored meeting COVID protocols: \nUSET/USET SPF Sponsored Meetings \n\nUp to date* vaccinated attendees will not be required to mask and can fully engage without restrictions. Vaccinated attendees will provide proof of up-to-date status via self-attestation. Daily testing is strongly encouraged.\nUnvaccinated attendees\, or attendees not up to date\, will be allowed to attend\, but will be required to:\n\n\nWear a KN-95 or N-95 mask\, or\nTest negative within 24 hours of the event AND also test negative daily\, if the meeting is for extended days\n\nAs part of our public heath authority responsibilities\, we will continue to provide education\, offer PPE\, rapid tests\, and continue to strongly encourage best practices. Additionally\, for USET/USET SPF meetings hosted by member Tribal Nations\, we will continue to comply with the COVID protocols that each set for their respective nation. While these protocols have changed to better reflect the current state of the pandemic\, updated booster shots\, and availability of treatments options\, the USET TEC strongly recommends ongoing caution due to the health disparities that exist across Indian Country. \n*Please note that up-to-date means that the primary series has been received and any current boosters (if eligible and/or available) have been administered. \n\nQuestions? \n\nFor questions related to this event\, please contact either Tyler Everett\, USET OERM Forest Adaptation Technical Assistant\, or Casey Thornbrugh\, USET OERM NE & SE Tribal Climate Science Liaison.

SUMMARY:DOI Non-BIA Programs List Eigible for SG Funding Agreements (Jan 2023) Consultation
DESCRIPTION:Dear Tribal Leader Letter \nThursday\, January 12 at 2:00 pm – 5:00 pm Mountain\nIn-Person at BLM National Training Center\, 9828 North 31st Avenue\, Phoenix\, AZ 85051 \nTuesday\, January 17 at 2:00 pm – 5:00 pm Mountain\nVirtual | Register in advance \nFriday\, January 20 at 2:00 pm – 5:00 pm Mountain\nVirtual | Register in advance \nThe Assistant Secretary – Indian Affairs proposes to consult on the List of Programs Eligible for Inclusion in Funding Agreements Negotiated with Self-Governance Tribes by Interior Bureaus Other than the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) (the “List”) that is prepared annually pursuant to section 412(c) of the Indian Self-Determination and Education Assistance Act (the “ISDEAA”). A copy of the List for Fiscal Year 2022 can be found here:\nhttps://www.federalregister.gov/ d/2022-025 84. \nIt is important to note the list is NOT a definitive list of all potentially c:ontractable programs and there may be many more that have yet to be identified. Prior versions of the List have included non-BIA programs or portions of programs that are eligible for inclusion in self-governance funding agreements with Indian Tribes. Past Lists have also included Fiscal Year programmatic targets for non-BIA bureaus under Title IV of the ISDEAA. We seek feedback on what information would be most helpful to Indian Tribes. \nJoint Secretarial Order 3403 directs the Department’s bureaus to “[m]ake agreements with Indian Tribes to collaborate in the co-stewardship of Federal lands and waters under the Departments’ jurisdiction\, including for wildlife and its habitat.” The Department views the ISDEAA as an importanrmeans for fulfilling the goals of Joint Secretarial Order 3403\, and the List as a valuable resource for Indian Tribes seeking ways to develop collaborative arrangements in the co-stewardship of Federal lands and waters. \nA listening session on this issue was previously held at the 2022 Self Governance Conference on August 2\, 2022\, at which non-BIA program staff were available for questions and answers. The results indicated that further consultation on the format and content of the List would be helpful. Indian Affairs invites you to consult on three topics: \n\nthe value of the current format of the List to Indian Tribes seeking contracting\, self­governance agreement(s)\, and/or compacting under ISDEAA;\nwhether adding to the List a list of all contracts\, self-governance agreements\, and/or compacts\, entered into by Department bureaus other than the BIA would be helpful for Tribes seeking to contract or compact with non-BIA Department bureaus; and\nwhether general guidance on the principles governing contracting\, self-governance agreement(s)\, and/or compacting under the ISDEAA should be included in the List.\n\nWritten comments should be submitted by email to consultations@bia.gov by 11:59 Eastern on Monday\, February 20\, 2023. \nIf you have any questions regarding this effort\, please contact Samuel Kohn\, Senior Counselor to the Assistant Secretruy -Indian Affairs\, via email at samuel.kohn@bia.gov\, or by phone at (202) 208-7163.

SUMMARY:NIHB and CDC Electronic Case Reporting for Tribal Nations Pre-Application Webinar
DESCRIPTION:January 17 at 2:00 pm Eastern\nJoin the webinar here. \nThe National Indian Health Board (NIHB) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention are pleased to offer a funding opportunity to begin the implementation process of electronic case reporting (eCR) directly to the Tribal public health authority (PHA). Electronic case reporting (eCR) can provide real time data to Tribal public health authorities to ensure a swift investigation process. As sovereign governments\, Tribal Nations have inherent public health authority (PHA) which bestows upon them the legal authority to receive case reports on conditions of interest to them.  \n NIHB anticipates funding two high-quality proposals from Tribes or Tribal organizations for $350\,000 each. This project will run from approximately February 2023 to July 2023. This is the second round of eCR funding provided by NIHB\, and applicants will join our pilot cohort in implementing eCR.  \nLearn more about this funding opportunity and eCR for Tribes here. NIHB will host a pre-application webinar on Tuesday\, January 17\, at 2:00 PM ET. Join the webinar here. To apply for this funding opportunity\, submit an application to Sarah Price at sprice@nihb.org by Wednesday\, February 8\, 2023. Download the application here. \nApplication Deadline: Wednesday\, February 8\, 2023\, at 11:59 PM ET \nPre-Application Webinar: Tuesday\, January 17\, 2023 at 2:00 PM ET
