The Yucca Mountain
Project initiated the Native American
Interaction Program in 1987 to protect
the area’s cultural resources.
This program involves 17 Native American
tribes and organizations whose members
have cultural and historic ties to
the Yucca Mountain area (these include
tribes of the Western Shoshone, Southern
Paiute, and Owens Valley Paiute/Shoshone).
The goal of this program is to exchange
information with these 17 tribes
and organizations from Nevada, Utah,
Arizona, and California. The program
provides ways for the tribes to keep
us informed of their cultural and
environmental concerns and for us
to inform the tribes of Project plans
and activities.
