Description
This comments matrix, published in 2006, provides a summary of the public comments made in 2006 regarding the proposed return of land to the Three Affiliated Tribes of the Fort Berthold Reservation. These comments were recorded from transcripts of six public meetings held in Bismarck, North Dakota (ND) on June 26; in Hazen, ND on June 27, in Dickinson, ND on June 27; in Williston, ND on June 28; in New Town, ND on June 29; and in Minot, ND on June 30. The matrix also includes comments received outside these meetings via email and letter. The proposed return of land, based on the Mineral Restoration Act of 1984 (Public Law 98-602), would return a portion of the land taken for the Garrison Dam project to the Three Affiliated Tribes.
