Commission
The UCUT Commission Brings Together Appointed Leaders From Each Member Tribe To Guide Intertribal Collaboration, Uphold Shared Priorities, and Advance Strategic Decisions That Protect Our Lands, Waters, and Ways of Life.
Guiding Collaborative Tribal Leadership Across the Upper Columbia River Basin
The de-centralized collaboration of our five Member Tribes working toward common goals makes the structure of UCUT unique and sustainable.
Collaboration means better communication and understanding of natural resource changes and consistent monitoring across all tribal ownerships. By incorporating data entry systems, we ensure data quality and reduce costs. Our evaluation and mitigation efforts are improved. It also allows for participation and reporting in local, regional, national, and international forums and meetings where issues of importance are discussed.
