About Us:
NOAA's Tribal Relations Team
NOAA remains committed to fulfilling the federal trust responsibility to federally recognized Indian tribes. In addition, NOAA strives to build and strengthen our relationships with Indian tribes, Alaska Natives, and Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islanders. NOAA’s Tribal Relations Team works to ensure an accountable process for meaningful and timely consultations on policies with tribal implications as well as to establish and maintain effective relations and communications and to promote greater awareness and mutual understanding of the policies, activities, and concerns of all parties related to NOAA's activities.
