SUMMARY:Virtual video event: Opportunities and Barriers in Native Federal Contracting
DESCRIPTION:The first in a series of conversations on cultivating Native economies\, hosted by the Minneapolis Fed’s Center for Indian Country Development. \nJune 21\, 2023\n2:00 pm – 3:30 pm Central\nVirtual video event\nRegister \nYou are invited to to join on June 21 for the inaugural event in a new webinar series from the Center for Indian Country Development (CICD): Cultivating Native Economies in the 21st Century. The series will provide Tribal leaders\, policymakers\, and practitioners with information they can use to strengthen and expand Indian Country economic development. The June 21 webinar will explore federal contracting in Indian Country—its trends\, opportunities\, and barriers\, and its potential for driving revenue and employment that contribute to an economy that works for all. \nOver the last 40 years\, Alaska Native Corporations (ANCs)\, Native Hawaiian Organizations (NHOs)\, and federally recognized Tribal Nations have increasingly done business with the world’s largest procurer of goods and services: the U.S. government. Recent research from CICD found that all three Native entity types have seen growth in federal contracting revenue. Federal contracting is the primary source of revenue for ANCs and NHOs and the second-largest source for tribes\, following gaming. Despite this growth\, Native entities’ revenue from federal contracting remains a small share of all federal contracting revenue. \nJoin on June 21 as they consider opportunities for Native entities to advance economic prosperity through federal contracting—and barriers to accessing and succeeding with federal contracting. Subject matter experts from national Native organizations and the federal government will discuss federal contracting’s role in economic development. Representatives from ANCs\, NHOs\, and Tribal enterprises will then share their experiences in the industry.

SUMMARY:BSEE Directors Tribal Roundtable
DESCRIPTION:Greetings Tribal Leader\, \nYou are invited to participate in a virtual roundtable discussion with Kevin Sligh\, the Director of the Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement (BSEE) to discuss our Tribal Engagement Program. Over the past year\, BSEE has been working diligently to expand its National Tribal Engagement Program (NTEP). Expansion of the Program includes the hiring of a new Tribal Liaison Officer\, a Tribal Coordinator\, and additional Regional Tribal Liaisons who will be locally accessible points of contact for the Alaska\, Gulf of Mexico\, and Pacific Outer Continental Shelf Regions\, as well as the Eastern Seaboard. \nThe BSEE has the authority to oversee safety and environmental standards related to offshore energy and mineral exploration\, development\, and production under the Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act. This authority allows BSEE to regulate energy-related activities on the U.S. Outer Continental Shelf\, which is seaward of states’ jurisdiction off of the west coast in the Pacific Ocean; off of Alaska in the Beaufort and Chukchi Seas\, the Bering Sea\, and Cook Inlet; in the Gulf of Mexico; and off of the East Coast in the Atlantic Ocean. \nWhile the purpose of the Tribal Roundtable is for BSEE to discuss the BSEE National Tribal Engagement Program with interested Tribes\, we also intend to use the roundtable to describe some of our key initiatives. We will explain how the BSEE regions and program offices collaborate and plan to work together with Tribes so you will have an expanded voice in Federal actions that may have Tribal implications. BSEE intends to proactively involve Tribes early and often in decisions to ensure meaningful and robust engagements and consultations as we move forward with the expansion of our Tribal Engagement Program nationally. \nAs part of the discussion\, we would like for you to consider these questions: \n\nDoes your Tribe have any cultural\, historical\, and present day needs on or related to the Outer Continental Shelf that you would like to discuss?\nDo you have any questions or concerns beyond the topics listed in the proposed agenda that you would like BSEE to include for discussion?\nCan you please recommend conferences or meetings that would be appropriate for our Tribal Liaisons to attend that can help us understand your issues or needs?\n\nWe are looking forward to hearing from your Tribal Nation regarding any concerns or questions you have about BSEE’s mission and furthering ongoing discussions in the future. If you would like to submit your response to the questions ahead of the Roundtable\, please submit them to our Tribal Liaison Officer Jack Lorrigan\, jack.lorrigan@bsee.gov. \nYou are invited to join us for this interactive virtual session on June 26\, 2023\, beginning at 2:00PM EST. \nPlease Register in advance for this meeting: https://bseegov.zoomgov.com/meeting/register/vJItcu6vqzstHYOkIPJ9EUSaJiJD3x_4k8I \nAfter registering\, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting. \n  \nDear Tribal Leader Letter
