Quinault Indian Nation Land Transfer Act

What this bill does

  • This bill transfers about 72 acres of federal forest land in Washington to the Department of the Interior to hold in trust for the Quinault Indian Nation.
  • The Quinault Indian Nation and tribes seeking to expand their reservation lands are affected by this transfer.
  • The land becomes part of the tribe's reservation but cannot be used for gaming, and hazardous substances must be disclosed but not cleaned up.

  1. 01

    How might transferring federal forest land to tribal trust status affect current forest management practices and environmental oversight in this Washington region?

  2. 02

    What are the implications of prohibiting gaming on this land compared to other tribal lands, and how does that restriction influence the tribe's economic development options?

  3. 03

    Should the bill require cleanup of existing hazardous substances on the transferred land, or is disclosure without remediation an acceptable approach?
