The EPA recently released its final policy on consultation and coordination
with Indian tribes. The policy establishes a new, broader standard for the
types of actions that may be appropriate for consultation -- such as
developing standards, guidance, policies, permitting decisions, and
activities under international agreements -- and makes clear the two-way
nature of government-to-government consultation by inviting Tribes to
request issues for consultation. The policy also establishes a management,
oversight and reporting structure that will help ensure accountability and
transparency.

In this one-hour TeleBriefing, our distinguished panel of legal and
regulatory experts will address the practical implications of the new
policy.

Topics will include:

The relationship of the Consultation Policy to Executive Order 13175 on
Consultation and Coordination with Indian Tribal Governments and EPA's 1984
Indian Policy
EPA actions and decisions covered by the consultation policy
How the consultation process will work
Implementing the new policy for national issues as well as regional or site
specific issues
Key distinctions between Consultation and Coordination
EPA's new Tribal Consultation Opportunities Tracking System
